سؤال و: VRC 2021-2022: Tipping Point
901: Elevated Mobile Goals in Programming Skills
The platform is off-limits for scoring during the autonomous round of head-to-head matches. The Programming Skills manual states, "Points are awarded according to the same score rules as standard VEX Robotics Competition Tipping Point head-to-head matches." It then goes on to provide the following scoring example for Programming Skills: "A Robot which is Elevated on either Platform is worth thirty (30) points." This seems to be a bit of a contradiction, but later, the manual lists the "Number of Elevated Mobile Goals" during PS as a tie breaker.
If an elevated robot is worth 30 points in a Programming Skills round, is it correct to assume that elevated mobile goals are worth forty points in those same rounds? It seems that would be the case, but I have a team that wants to be certain the auton they're programming will allow them to score points the way they hope.

Yes, this is correct.
The bulleted examples listed under the "Robot Skills Challenge Scoring" are intended to be examples, not necessarily an all-inclusive list.
