Can a robot stop on a colored diagonal barrier square?
The rulebook's text forbids stopping on a colored barrier, which overrides the older second-edition reading players still quote.
No. A robot may not stop on a colored barrier space; it moves on toward the next obstacle. A move that would end on such a space because of an adjacent obstacle is not allowed, so a solution cannot finish with a robot on a diagonal. The older second-edition reflector reading, which let a robot stop on the square and leave in another direction, does not match this rulebook.
