Does bouncing off a diagonal barrier count as the required ricochet on a robot's first move?
One experienced player reads the rule this way, and another reads it as needing an obstacle first.

Probably yes. If the robot's direction changes by 90 degrees at the diagonal during its first move, that counts as the required ricochet. A robot that passes straight through a barrier and reaches the target on that move does not qualify.
