Hello
I read “RoboCupJunior Rescue Simulation Rules 2023”. (RCJRescueSimulation2023RulesFinal.pdf)
so I have some questions.
2.4.3. Division of Areas
The colors of the connection tiles are as such:
• Between Area 1 and 2: Blue
• Between Area 2 and 3: Purple
• Between Area 3 and 4: Red
• Between Area 4 and 1: Green
The content of this rule does not match the first picture of the rule.
for example
The connecting tiles of Area 2 and Area 3 are purple in the rules and red in the picture.
Which is correct?
The connecting tiles of Area 1 and Area 3 are not written in the rules.
Similarly, the connecting tiles of Area 2 and Area 4 are not written in the rules.
Shouldn’t these areas be connected?
(In the picture above, Area 1 and Area 3 are connected by purple tiles.)
first of all, thank you for being so active and asking a lot of questions.
I can understand that the rules are somewhat confusing in this regard.
The picture we used for the scenario section is still from the old rules with 3 rooms. As in the 2nd image on page 3 (sample area 4), a red and green tile are used for the connection to the 4th room, as also described in 2.4.3.
We will think about replacing the image with an updated graphic, but I can’t promise this.
Regarding area 2 and 4 not having a connecting tile; yes area 1 and 3, as well as area 2 and 4 are not supposed to be connected directly, which is why the definition for the connecting tiles is “missing”.
The picture we used for the scenario section is still from the old rules with 3 rooms.
This is a rule, so pictures that do not comply with the rules should not be posted.
Please replace it with a picture that conforms to the rules.
or,It should be annotated with “This picture is an old rules picture and does not conform to the current rules”

2.2.1.3. All areas are connected by a passage of one standard tile in width.
Since all areas are written to be connectable to each other, they mistakenly believe that area 1 and area 3 are also connectable.
