Create an algorithm to use [Drive for] and [Turn to heading] blocks, the Arm Motor Group, and the Intake Motor Group to drive the Hero Bot to intake the Blocks on the Field and score them into the Goals, remove the Red Blocks from the Starting Pegs, and park the robot in the Supply Zone partially or fully to score as many points as possible in one minute!

  • Select the VIQRC Virtual Skills - Full Volume Playground.
  • Determine a strategy and select the tasks to be accomplished within one minute to maximize scoring.
  • Select a Starting Position and plan a route for the robot to execute the selected tasks based on the strategy.
  • Create a coordinate system on the VIQRC Virtual Skills Field to navigate the robot to specific positions.
  • Select the first Goal. Code the Hero Bot to separately pick up at least two Blocks of the same type and score them into the first Goal to make this Goal Uniform and have a desired Fill Level as fast as possible!
  • Select the second Goal. Code the Hero Bot to separately pick up at least two Blocks of the same type and score them into the second Goal to make this Goal Uniform and have a desired Fill Level as fast as possible!
  • Select the third Goal. Code the Hero Bot to separately pick up at least two Blocks of the same type and score them into the third Goal to make this Goal Uniform and acquire the desired Height Bonus as fast as possible!
  • Drive the Hero Bot to remove the Red Blocks from Starting Pegs following the planned route.
  • Code the Hero Bot to partially or fully park in the Supply Zone based on the strategy. 

Helpful Hints

  • For more information to develop your scoring strategy, please read the scoring section of the Game Manual.
  • Analyze various tasks scoring efficiency and difficulty levels to determine game strategy.
  • Select the tasks strategically to complete to obtain both Uniform and Height Bonuses to maximize scoring.
  • While maintaining the Uniform Bonuses, the most effective approach to boost the score is to increase the highest Fill Level shared by all three Goals to earn more Height Bonus.
  • Design an efficient path to minimize the traveling distance and turns for the Hero Bot while executing the tasks.
  • Prevent the robot from driving onto Blocks, which could cause deviations from the target.
