Further Clarification on <S03>

[FRC1410]

Sorry if this is the third time I've asked, but something seems to be occurring when I try to post. Anyway, we were wondering if you could clarify what excatly a firing mechanism is. Or, more specifically, when does a loading mechanism become a firing mechanism? And is the loading mechanism liable to the same restrictions of the firing mechanism?

[GDC]

A shooter includes the mechanism that delivers the final dynamic impulse that ejects the ball from the robot, and any parts of the robot that contact the ball while and/or after this impluse is delivered. If your loading mechanism also ejects the ball from the robot, it would be considered a shooting mechanism.
