Re: Autonomous Assist

If Robot B moves to the white zone, gives the bot to Robot A, then Robot A scores, this is an assist, according to the rules(since Robot B had it in white, then transferred it to Robot A in red). This whole process occurs during the 10 second autonomous period.

Given this example, would this count as an assist and be given points? Are assists allowed during the 10 second autonomous period?
This would not be an assist because the balls you start with in autonomous have not left the pedestal and are therefore not part of a CYCLE.

ALLIANCEs earn one bonus for each BALL SCORED in a GOAL based on the number of ASSISTS in that CYCLE.

CYCLE: the series of events that recur regularly, and each CYCLE begins with an ALLIANCE’S BALL being retrieved from the PEDESTAL and ends when a BALL is SCORED in a GOAL.
