I don't think your app accounts for the black bars interactions.
Example:
I read somewhere that the Demolition challenge is worth 85 points, but since the black bars THAT are part of the demolition model are not in their original position anymore those bars are potentially -16 points each (you lose the +8 points for not being in the original position, plus you score -8 points if you don't do anything else with them, like landfill or placing them in the green bin).

Similarly with the large toy plane box.
When brought to base the plane box is worth +40
However the plane box has 2 black bars, which are not in the original position, so they lose +8, and in addition score -8 if the black bars are not landfilled or the compost is not place in the toy box.
But if the compost is placed in the toy box (+40 for repurposing), then the black bars regain their +8 points, plus they lose their -8 points because they are not "anywhere else", according to M04 Sorting, second bullet...

(I believe I got this right...)
Why is scoring so complicated this year????

Does your app really account for all these black bar's variations?
Please advice, our team is competing in Staunton in less than 2 weeks.
Thank you.
