There will be some material posted on the national website some time in October. I'm not sure it will be what you are looking for. Some information has been posted earlier on this thread. What kind of information do you need? Myself and others may be able to point you in the right direction.

Things like the rules and more details on the "one file" rule. Do you know where I can find such information? Also, can I use a completely pre-made robot (like one where no building is required? Thanks for the help!

Here are some answers:
- The Rules can be downloaded from the National website (https://www.soinc.org/rules-2024). But I'm guessing you have a copy of the rules. If you a question about a rule, then please post a question for that rule. This group would be happy to provide some help.
- As for the "one file", there is an FAQ (https://www.soinc.org/rule-6ci-states-s ... an-be-made) that explains its a single program and not a single file. Meaning your robot program can include multiple source code files.
- A "completely pre-made robot" would depend on a few items. The rules require the student(s) to build a robot. If the robot was shipped as parts and assembled by the students, then the student(s) built the robot. If the robot is complete out-of-box, then this becomes difficult. If a robot is modified by the student(s), then the student(s) built the robot submitted. This is similar to when a device is re-used from a previous year. The students need to modify the old device to match the current rules. Using a device that was not built or modified by the students, would be seen as a violation. I have given teams this penalty before. [Hint: There is a rule (3.e) that will require a modification to 99.9% of all pre-built robots]
