Our team is so hyped for the Dunk Tank CADathon! We know it’s the right move, but we’ve been hesitant about diving into OnShape. This event is the perfect chance to take the plunge together. Huge thanks to FRC Design for helping us make the dunk – can’t wait to see what we create through this opportunity! Thanks @R.C and teamwcp for everything!
~3 hours until game release! Remember you can register your CADathon team at any point throughout the competition. We’ve got some exciting prizes we’re hella stoked to give out, and at the end of this we’ll have a new member of the TeamWCP family!
We’re thrilled to announce DunkTank! We’ve been amazed by the overwhelming number of teams that have signed up. We can’t wait to see the creative designs your teams will come up with.
G08: A ROBOT’S horizontal dimensions may never exceed 18” beyond its FRAME PERIMETER.
does this have any restrictions, ie: only 1 direction at once or is it 18" per side, and what about corners of the robot, also what about rounded frame perimeter areas
Question: can a robot control a basketball and electrolytes simultaneously or only one or the other?
Related rule:
G15: A ROBOT may only be in possession of 1 BASKETBALL at a given time. There is no limit on the number of ELECTROLYTES that can be in a ROBOT’S possession.
Reminder that this forum post is the best place to ask game questions! I know some of the concepts take a few reads to wrap your head around, especially the hoop stacks and how clearing works, so anyone has any questions please ask them here and I’ll try my best to respond as quickly as I can (I am driving to SoCal this afternoon but I’ll be able to answer questions intermittently throughout the drive).
