why would you want to pass to your human player in auto

can't score assist points in autonomous as they are bonus points awarded at the end of a cycle, and a cycle starts when a ball is put onto the field by a human player after being removed from the pedestal. Even if assist points could be awarded it would be hard to throw to the hp then back to the robot and into the goal in 10s.
