Yeah, we did that too. As an example, we learned before qual 79 at SVR that our alliance partner 253 was getting disabled because of their battery exiting their robot. We sent over a few students, a mentor, and a cart full of tools, and by the time the match rolled around we set them up with a new plate to hold in their battery. It was great being able to help out another team, and they were able to breach defenses without getting disabled.
