The game manual says that during autonomous, reaching over the line such as to point does not count as crossing, and therefore no penalties(unless you're controlling your robot, I'm assuming.) However, I'm wondering: if something were to
go horribly wrong with autonomous, would it be legal to reach(or even step) over the line to press the emergency stop button? It would probably be considered controlling the robot, but I'm thinking there should be an exception for an emergency, especially when it concerns the safety of other people. What does everyone else think? Has anyone here actually done it?
