For this game, we are planning our robot design as if we are going to be the only robot out there. For the robot that develops from that, we will develop strategies to work with different robots with different ability levels.
You assume that there will be another robot that can cap. Plan what you will do if you have three that can cap. Two that can cap, one that can cap. There are a lot of different combinations and you can't plan for all of them, but you can generalize ahead of time.
I believe that I read this year they will give you a match listing for the day. This list will show what matches you are in and with who. Once you get that, you can go and talk to your alliance partners to figure out what you are going to do. Or, just wait for the 5 minutes while you are in the que to talk about it. Either way, do your homework and plan for the generalized robot combinations.
