Karthik,

In this thread (https://vexforum.com/t/answered-q-a-reply-clarification-to-sg8/24562/1), I have a question for this scenario.

What if the robot possesses 3 buckyballs, drives back into the big ball, and through the buckyballs on the bump. Is this consider legal since the big ball is in contact of the buckyballs on the bump. The robot never comes in contact with the buckyballs.

A robot takes the path shown by the black line in the following left image:

This is legal in all cases during the Driver Controlled Mode. This is legal during the Autonomous Mode provided the Robot in question is not carrying/holding the Large Ball.
