Hello! I hope your season has been well!
Generally the offensive robot is seen as the robot "trying to score points" in an interaction, in a scenario where a red and blue robot are both trying to score a mobile goal into a corner, both robots are attempting to score points and can both be seen as the offensive robot, in situations like this who should be given benefit of doubt in the event a violation occurs?
Similarly, if an interaction happens in the Negative Corner, both robots are attempting to "remove points" from the opponent which would be considered a defensive action, but preventing the other robot from scoring a goal in the negative corner can also seen as a defensive action as they are not scoring points (but are preventing a swing of points), In this scenario are both robots considered defensive? Who should be given benefit of doubt?
Finally, If two robots are fighting over a positive corner, and RED1 momentarily placed a goal in the corner whilst BLUE1 is attempting to take control, would RED1 now be considered the defensive robot as its goal has been scored, and it is now taking a "defensive" position by preventing BLUE1 from controlling the corner?
Cheers
