This is a common misconception. There is no rule or mission that talks about the robot's final location, so it doesn't matter if it finishes in Base or not.
KikiFROGBOTICSThanksWe are assuming it has to be back in base each time, correct?This is a totally new question from FROGBOTICS:Is there a penalty for not getting the robot back to base at the end of the timing for the Competition?
