if the algorithm creates the path at compile time when it is complied on to the bot,does it count at software simulation?,what if the bot creates the path when the program is already running?

Re: Would creating a maze solving algorithim count as software simulaion?
There was a FAQ that answered this question, but I could not find the answer posted on the national website. I will ask why the answer was not posted. Below was the answer that went out to the individual who asked the question.QuantamGuy wrote: ↑February 23rd, 2024, 8:50 am if the algorithm creates the path at compile time when it is complied on to the bot,does it count at software simulation?,what if the bot creates the path when the program is already running?
A pathfinding algorithm is not a software simulation provided the competitors cannot review or modify any part of the output of the algorithm before the run. All definitions of the track must be contained within the robot's program source code file(s). Competitors can only modify the source code file(s) impounded.
