Hello,
Would it be legal for Game objects to cross the autonomous line during autonomous without penalty? Specifically game objects that are not contacting the robot while doing so.
The rulebook currently implies this may be illegal because of SG7:
“Scoring Objects cannot be used to accomplish actions that would be otherwise illegal if they were attempted by Robot mechanisms.”
An interpretation of this may be that game objects cannot cross the autonomous line as a robot mechanism cannot as in SG3:
“Robots may not do any of the following:
- Contact the foam tiles on the opposing Alliance’s side of the Autonomous Line.”
Additionally if this is ruled illegal would accidental or unintentional violations cause the alliance to lose the autonomous bonus or be disqualified, for example a ball rolls over the line after a robot flips a cap or a ball rebounds off the net and crosses the line?
Thank You in Advance
