I was just if any part of a robot is allowed to enter the zone under the goals. I can’t find anything in the game manual that says it’s not allowed just wanted to check if anyone knows. I’ve seen robots that have pieces that perfectly line up their robot and this seems “illegal”
I believe this is best addressed in rule SG6 and with that, it doesn’t appear to indicate any illegalities with a bot protruding into the pickup zone. It even makes sure to point out that the pickup zone is not treated as a 3D space; which REC usually uses to define a space that can be crossed/entered into (like the drop zone before the ball touches the floor).
I actually just made a post with our team’s bot that extends into the pickup zone, seeking some clarification on rule SG6: Robot in Pickup Zone (SG6 Clarification)
