In most cases the scoring for the missions does not say anything about objects that the robots leaves on the board. Rule 27, Scoring, bullet 1 says: Unless a specific method is required, your score is assessed based on the conditions at the exact time the match ends only. Rule 3, Interpretation, bullet 2 says: If a detail isn’t mentioned, then it doesn’t matter. Each of the Missions tells its criteria for earning a score. The only mission score that can be affected by LEGO objects left on the field is the Transitions mission. Rule 21, Failure and Loss, bullets 2 and 4 specifically mention objects and cargo that the robot leaves on the field--so you know that leaving objects on the field is allowed: - Objects moved/left outside Base are not replaced or moved out of the way by hand. - Cargo the robot loses contact with is left wherever it comes to rest There is nothing in the Rules that allows for "partial points" (although some results for accomplishing a mission are worth more than others, of course.) Bottom line--yes, it is okay for the robot to leave objects scattered around the field at the end of the match. They will not affect the scoring, except as specifically described in the Updates, Missions, and Rules.
