Charge Station Scoring by Robot in Auto and Tele

Trying to determine if a robot can score the Charging Scoring Assessment in both Auto and Tele portion. Table at 6.2 says points are awarded for “Each” robot. The assessment is made 3 seconds after auto and again at 3 seconds after the conclusion of the match. Does the each mean that “each” robot can only score one time, or can the same robot score in both tele and auto. It is not clear to us.

From the manual, points for the CHARGING STATION are assessed (awarded) twice: once at the end of AUTO, and once at the end of TELEOP1. The number of robots at each state is counted, and points are awarded accordingly, except that during AUTO the count is capped at one2. There is absolutely nothing to indicate that a robot that scored in AUTO cannot score in TELEOP.

1 Section 6.4, pp. 44-45:

All scores are assessed and updated throughout the MATCH, except as follows:
A. assessment of CHARGE STATION scoring occurs 3 seconds after the ARENA timer displays 0
following AUTO
[…]
C. assessment of CHARGE STATION scoring occurs 3 seconds after the ARENA timer displays 0
following TELEOP

The position of the word each in the Chart is what raised the question in our minds. Our initial interperation is the same as yours that a bot could score in both periods of the match, but we didn’t make a miscalculation.

Answer to Q25 verified your assessment. Thanks
