For the Starstruck game, are we allowed to build a lift that can reach over the middle platform? My team and I may build a lift, and being able to reach over would eliminate the need for a catapult.
The rules don’t seem to prohibit it. It says you cannot touch the tile on the other side. But it doesn’t say anything about reaching over. (that I have seen)
I think you can do that.
Though this will probably need to be asked in a Q&A when that forum section is put up, there seems to be nothing in the rules directly prohibiting it. If someone can design an efficient intake, we could very well see dumping mechanisms when robots just pick up all the pieces on their side then ‘dump’ them onto the other side via a skyrise style lift.
My older teams robot from skyrise is in tact. Time to mod and use to win worlds.
It’s a 2 ft fence, a skyrise lift is overkill. I’m thinking of a single staged six bar lift.
