W = Verbal warning; F = Foul (3); X = Technical Foul (10); C = Affected robots count as climbed; E = E-stop disable; D = Disqualified; Y = Yellow card; R = Red card. The first violation has the consequence listed under "1st", and subsequent violations have the consequence listed under "Rpt", if that is not blank, or else again whatever is in the "1st" column; except that egregious violations have the consequence in the "Egr" column instead, if that is not blank.
Starting configuration: fully supported by hab platform levels 1 or 2; may have optionally fully support one hatch panel or one cargo. Robot on hab level: bumpers above platform, supported only by platform of that level or higher (transitive through game pieces), alliance wall, or other robot. | ||||
