| | | | | (...) Yup. That's always been the deal with rtl15, to be able to traverse T or Y shapes. But previously, the rtl15 competition was to be one true path and the other path would always terminate. I'm suggesting we don't terminate, but instead offer (...)

| | | | | | (...) So Calum you are suggesting that the shortest path would be the marked path, but if a robot goofs up, and turns the wrong way, it can continue, and take a longer, route that will still lead it to the critical path. Calum, are you being (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

It gets people working FAST, and no need for CPM charting either. (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| | | | | | (...) I think you've got a good idea here. If we build it right, we wouldn't have to rebuild it to have a different maze for subsequent rounds, we could just mark different paths through the maze.
