The 2023-2024 vex robotics game drown up
24-25 game: nothing but avatar
Hmmmmmmmmmm, care to elaborate
WATER, FIRE, EARTH, AIR
All quarters of the field.
each robot should act as an “Avatar,” to work in all of the conditions
So, burning point in a half oil field? The fire martial will love that lol
I can already hear the sirens
4 robots on an alliance, all working together, points scored in one match are in the 800 - 1000 point range. New Expanded 28 x 28 field, 12 Motor Limit, 32 x 32 Robot Initial Size Requirements.
how did it take me 20 mins to read though all of this
The game will be called pyramid power. There is one large pyramid anchored to the bottom of the field and floating in the water filled field. Then there are 4 slightly smaller pyramids around the corners of the field. There will be balls on the bottom of the field which can be scored inside the pyramids for different amounts of points. Then there are also pyramids of different colors that must be stacked on top of the pyramids. There are three colors of scoring pyramids and a uniform stack will be worth more than a non uniform one. In addition, the four pyramids around the corners not anchored to the bottom but instead the walls, and can be moved around so they can be possessed by a different team.
Earth, wind, fire and air, we look bad but we don’t care. Burning robots and melted field tiles, to drive EPS crazy, our one desire….
Please someone get the reference……
I think no matter the game they should keep it how you can have pneumatics and still eight motors. Also they should really make like a single acting piston but the other way. so the power is retracting instead of extension.
“they” would be SMC pneumatics, and it’s not going to happen. Single-acting cylinders are all made with the spring to retract the air cylinder. Better to purchase double-acting cylinders, then you have the choice to use them like single-acting by not connecting one side of the air cylinder to the solenoid valve, then you have the choice to rubber-band-power the extension or retraction of the air cylinder.
Yep, I talked about it here Air resavor rules - #8 by Foster
Surprised no one has brought this up yet while talking about the fire game.
Wow, thats a blast from the past (pun intended)!! I lost the link to the rocket launcher, that was another classic use/abuse of the VRC products.
Me and my friends may or may not have a bot built for this
Completely vex legal minus filling the canisters with flammable gas
As the creator of said retractable claw topic, its quite funny to me as to how playful the forum is. Before I just used to think that everyone was like, robotically answering questions. But now I see that it’s quite fun here!
