Hi Karthik,
The rule <SG6> reads as follows (emphasis mine):
It seems to me as there is a little ambiguity in what the bolded part means. I could see it being either:
A. “The foam tiles that are in a robot’s own Zones may not be contacted at all by the robot.” - IE, tiles partially in the zone are completely off-limits.
B. “The portions of the foam tiles that are in a robot’s own Zones may not be contacted at all by the robot.” - IE, only the part of the tile actually in the zone is off-limits.
Essentially, is it legal for a robot on the blue side to make contact with the green area and/or the purple area in the attached picture?
I am probably over-reading the rules, but I would much rather be safe than sorry. Thank you in advance!
