So you move your robot to another can, and the other team does the same, and so on. I think this is similar to the goalie placement last year, which was covered by a rule. Is this addressed in the rules this year?
I noticed this gap in the rules, as well. Hopefully they will resolve it before it becomes a problem. This is a great Q+A submission.
