But, TELEOP and AUTO are different. Therefore, still prohibited.

Each MATCH is divided in to two periods. The first period, called AUTO, is the first fifteen (15) seconds of
a MATCH in which ROBOTS operate without any DRIVE TEAM control or input. During this period,
ROBOTS attempt to deliver preloaded GAME PIECES (and PILOTS race to install delivered GEARS),
retrieve additional GAME PIECES, and cross their BASE LINE before the start of the next period.
TELEOP is the second period in a MATCH and is two minutes and fifteen seconds (2:15) long. During
this period, DRIVERS may operate ROBOTS remotely to retrieve and deliver GAME PIECES, defend
against their opponents, and climb their ROPES to prepare for the impending departure of their AIRSHIP
after the MATCH.
TELEOP and AUTO are different periods, and also the PILOT is neither a HUMAN PLAYER nor DRIVER, just a member of the DRIVE TEAM, similar to the DRIVE COACH, who cannot interact.
