Active Weapon Proposal

[stb]

If we are to start making robots that are only to fulfill the role of being entertaining and forget the real objectives of combat robots then this will never be a sport but resigned to being a side show.

Now I'm getting curious. What are the real objectives of combat robots? How are they in opposition of being entertaining? I would say that everything that makes the sport more entertaining for both the audience and builders are positive.

Still, I do not want a rule that prohibit all pushers. Making the pit less available (in time and/or space) should make them less attractive to experienced builders. Reduced maximum weight for pushers can do the same.

Have Fun
