About ERC RMC:
ERC Rover Mechanic Challenge is an e-tournament, during which players compete to repair Martian rovers as quickly as possible in a special version of Rover Mechanic Simulator created in cooperation with European Rover Challenge 2021.
About competition:
After closing the registration, random tournament ladder will be created, including all the registered participants. The matches will be played in the single elimination system and each one will include from 2 to 4 players – the number of players depends on the number of participants. Participants will be given a contest task – tasks will be randomly selected for the participants depending on the game starting time. Their goal is to complete the task as quickly as possible (repair the Martian rover to the condition required in a given task) in each of the 4 rounds with the lowest resource consumption possible.
The ranking list will be created on the basis of the scores obtained during the game. Depending on the results, every match will end with an elimination of one player, while the others will progress to the next round.
Prizes:
The main prize: The participant occupying the first position wins the ability to remotely
control the rover on MarsYard after the end of the ERC competition for a maximum of 60
minutes via the Internet.
More information about competition and prizes can be found in the OFFICIAL RULES.
