September 12, 2017

So here's the plan.

  1. Drive north from Base, using a rack-and-pinion arm (called Mater, in honor of a similar attachment we used in TRASH TREK) to do Filter, Pump Addition, and Rain. Run into the pump to complete Flow.
  2. Drive east from Base, pushing a cart (Robin) to the Fountain to deliver a Big Water as the robot drives past. The robot will have a huge arm that can flip over the top of the robot. Use it to flip the manhole cover, and throw the yellow pipe base to Base. Drive over the ramp, flip the other manhole cover, and use the arm to flip the firetruck over the robot to put out the fire. Take a penalty to return to Base.
  3. Drive east from Base to go do the Faucet, Slingshot, and Water Well.
Over the weekend, Max and Soren spent five hours starting to build attachments. Max built Robin (which works really well), and Soren accidentally found an idea for flipping the manhole covers.

                                                                 Until next time, keep building!
