Mobile Goal for Autonomous

VEX Robotics Competition Discussion

For autonomous I see many teams scoring the mobile goal into the 20 point zone, but doesn’t those points count for the end of the match and not for autonomous and the end of the match?

so the way that auto scoring, is that if you score during auto your points get counted towards the auto bonus, and whoever has scored more points during auto earns a 10 point bonus, which does count towards the end of the match. Plus at the end of the match, if everything remains scored, then they still count towards the end of the match

Yes, I know how that works, but if you score a mobile goal into the 20 point zone will that count towards autonomous and the end of the match?

The answer is sort of yes, but the situation you are describing would be better described like this:

  1. At the end of autonomous, there is a mobile goal in the 20-point zone, so include this in the total for determining the winner of autonomous.

  2. At the end of the match, there is a mobile goal in the 20-point zone, so include this in the total for determining the winner of match.

The fact that the same goal was in the 20-point zone at the end of both autonomous and the match is not relevant. It could also have been two different mobile goals and the scoring would be the same. “End of Autonomous” and “End of Match” are completely separate.
