Minibot start and stop conditions

[Jared Russell]

If you use a touch sensor to halt the robot, remember to make sure that it doesn't get triggered before the sensor on the pole!

That would be pretty bad if the code would look at the stopping touch sensor before the starting touch sensor. If the state machine is properly coded, the stop sensor should not be looked at until it is in descending state. I will make sure my students don't do that

Help me out here, section 1.6 is kind of long and I can't find this reference. I did look.
