A ROBOT SET occurs when all ROBOTS on an ALLIANCE move themselves to, and are fully contained by, their AUTO ZONE at the end of AUTO.
A ROBOT SET requires all ROBOTS from an ALLIANCE who are playing in a particular MATCH in order to be scored. For example, if ROBOTS A, B and C are on an ALLIANCE, but ROBOT B is not on the FIELD for a particular MATCH (or has been DISABLED by the FIELD staff prior to the MATCH), the ROBOT SET only requires two (2) ROBOTS.
A TOTE SET exists if all three (3) Yellow TOTES from an ALLIANCE are fully contained by the AUTO ZONE, but do not meet the requirements of a STACKED TOTE SET, at the end of AUTO.
A STACKED TOTE SET exists if all three (3) Yellow TOTES from an ALLIANCE are arranged such that, at the end of AUTO:
- A. the Yellow TOTES are stacked one on top of another in a single column,
- B. only the bottom-most Yellow TOTE is in contact with the AUTO ZONE,
- C. the entire structure is fully contained by the AUTO ZONE, and
- D. the entire structure is free of contact from ROBOTS
A CONTAINER SET exists if any three (3) RECYCLING CONTAINERS are fully contained by the AUTO ZONE at the end of AUTO.
A Gray TOTE is scored if it is fully supported by a SCORING PLATFORM and no portion of the TOTE extends above the top of the
BACKSTOP.
LITTER is considered scored in a LANDFILL ZONE when it is fully contained within a LANDFILL ZONE, with each ALLIANCE credited for the LITTER scored in the LANDFILL ZONE on their side of the FIELD.
ALLIANCES earn an UNPROCESSED LITTER Bonus for each LITTER that is fully contained by the opposite side of the FIELD and not scored in the LANDFILL ZONE or scored in a RECYCLING CONTAINER.
Both ALLIANCES are awarded points if a COOPERTITION SET or a COOPERTITION STACK is assembled on the STEP. A COOPERTITION SET exists when at least four (4) Yellow TOTES are fully supported by the STEP, but do not meet the requirements of a COOPERTITION STACK.
A COOPERTITION STACK exists if at least four (4) Yellow TOTES are arranged such that:
- A. they are stacked one on top of another in a single column,
- B. the structure is fully supported by the STEP, and
- C. the entire structure is free of contact from ROBOTS for at least three (3) seconds
"Support", for COOPERTITION, AUTO, and TELEOP, is transitive through other TOTES. For example, a Yellow TOTE is "fully supported by the STEP" if it is resting on top of another Yellow TOTE that is in turn resting directly on the STEP (and thus both Yellow TOTES are "fully supported" by the STEP).
