Re: Safe zone for shooting / placing gears?
There are only three times in a match during the Teleop period that you are safe/protected from your opponents trying to attack you.
1. Like you mentioned, your opponent touching you while you are touching a rope.
2. An opponent touching you while you are in your alliance's loading zone. (The one marking by the tape color of your alliance on the other side of the field.)
3. Your opponents can touch you while you are in your key (taped off zone by your alliance's boiler), however they are not allowed to be in there for more than 5 seconds at a time, reducing the time they are allowed to harass you.
Any other time in a match during the Teleop period an opponent can touch you, ram into you, ect. They however can only pin you for 5 seconds but the definition of a "pin" is fluid so it is up to the judges.
