Same here. Tried deleting it and re-downloading it but to no avail it wouldn’t show up.
if you placed them all out flat on the platform it would be. But if you can find a way to pile them on top of your robot then you could.
this is true, the best auton routes seem to be to bring the neutral goals to your side, since that will give you a huge advantage at the start of driver, and it contributes the most to those auton points. But interestingly auton isn’t as valuable as it usually is, 20 points can be cancelled out by a single goal or 2 rings on the tall goal.
I’m of the opinion that it would be very difficult to consistently maintain control of all three of the neutral goals during the matches. As people start attempting it, others will just get more creative at taking them out of their possession. It may be a viable strategy early on in the season, but I think it would likely run out of momentum as the season progresses.
Is this the game break that people keep having at night that only intellectuals can think of?
Or is there something more?
I was expecting the delivery of the field to take weeks, but it just arrived today. Has anyone had a chance to play with the new field elements? The platform is quite nicely made.
I think people in AU and NZ got the fields
The robots this year should be interesting mostly because i have no idea how to do this challenge haha.
It does not work for ios yet.
Just start with the design process. Brainstorm some solutions on how to accomplish the tasks of the game. Do some research, maybe look at past games for robotics competitions, and soon you’ll have plenty of ideas. This is the perfect time to learn
. And don’t forget to have fun!

To co-op JD6’s post,
Vex’ In The Zone’s mobile goals (Mogos) have some similarities to this year’s mobile goals and may serve as a good reference when creating an initial design.
Vex IQ Ringmaster had good methods of intaking rings, although the wavy shape of the ringles may mean different methods would be necessary to do them.
Vex 2010 team 44 had an interesting robot which had a creative way to handle the heavy goals with the old cortex motors. Might be useful if your team plans on doing multiple goals on a small motor budget.
I did ringmaster and our team had a passive way of grabbing rings off the ground using the change in space between the two sides of a parallelogram, I think I have a way to do it with the wavy rings but I’ve yet to test it
I never saw a possession limit for the “donuts”, is this correct?
correct, you may hold as many as you’d like.
Any chance you could upload some video? The one set we’ve seen from NZ was super wobbly, but that may be due to thin/old tiles.
Looks like I am a little late to this thread but I wanted to share a little video I did that shows the VR Skills for this game. Check it out VEX VRC VR Skills Introduction - YouTube
If you can grab all 2 alliance mobile goals and 3 neutral mobile goal during 15 seconds, thats OP! Like seriuosly, Im going to try that (litterally 1000 rpm drive to get there

I’m planning on building a passive intake to hold one of the MOGO’s. For reference my plan was to have a DR4b to hold one MOGO, and 2 bars at the back of my robot to hold the second. I didn’t see anything about this in the game manual, but can an opponent steal a MOGO from a robot? On the flipside, could I steal a MOGO away from an opponent?
If you were to drag a goal would it count as part of your horizontal expansion?
