Usage Guidelines All Questions

Hanging at the end of the match.

At the end of each Over Under match, will the field electronics be turned off (such that each hanging robot needs to have a lock to stay in the hanging position)? Or will the electronics stay on until the score is calculated?

At the end of the Match, the field controls place all Robots (i.e. Robot Brains and Smart Motors) into a "disabled" state, which is the same state that they are in when no programs are running. Please see this VEX Library article for more information about testing/practicing this end-of-Match behavior.

We are making an exception for this post in order to clearly state that this functionality is an expected and intended aspect of Over Under's gameplay/design challenge.
