What to do when a victim leaves the evacuation zone?

Hey there,

what should the referees do when a victim leaves the field (e.g. the bot touched/threw it so it left the field)?

According to 3.6.7 “[…]all victims (including ones that have rolled) will remain in their current position. […]”. Does that also apply for the ones that left the field or should they be placed randomly?

Best regards,
Oskar

Hi Oskar.

When a lack of progress has been called, victims will remain where they are unless the robot is in contact with it.

To answer your question, if a victim has left the evacuation zone/field AND if the robot is not in contact with the victims, it will remain where they are. If the robot is in contact (e.g.: carrying them), the victims will be placed back randomly.
