Re: Calling All Drivers

Deliver empty cells when its convenient. Usually, the outpost is open to go pick one up right after autonomous ends, but if it isn't, don't go for it. Go play defense or score moonrocks and come back later.

Don't pin a robot in front of the opposing team's human player. I've seen plenty of robots do this and a human player will just load up your trailer and it usually isn't worth having their robot pinned.

Keep moving, but remember that turning all the way around is hard and it takes longer than you would think to stop.

Stay smart. This is probably the most important thing. You need a smart drive team, one that can strategize well before hand and handle strategy changes based on field conditions.
