AprilTag measurements in game manual

It’s late in the season, but I haven’t seen this discussed anywhere. There appears to be a significant discrepancy in the Game Manual between the text that describes where an AprilTag goes, and measurements shown in the accompanying illustration. This is from the current on-line version of the manual.

Grid AprilTags:

  • Text: “1ft. 2 1/4 in.” off the carpet
  • Figure 5-33: “2 ft.” off the carpet

Substation AprilTags:

  • Text: “1 ft. 11 3/8 in.” off the carpet
  • Figure 5-33: “3 ft.” off the carpet

Looks like you found a problem! The figure is wrong the text is correct.

Yes. I seem to remember a general rule somewhere that if there is a discrepancy, the written text rules. That said, I looked at the picture, and set ours up wrong. No huge deal.

This was fixed in a team update (don’t remember which one)

FWIW, the current published version of the manual (3/21/23) still has the incorrect image.

Just got Update #20, which resolves the issue. Thanks for at attentiveness to detail!
