I can "easily" block both goals with one working robot that can push and one E-stopped one, leaving the door open for blocking both goals and not getting any penalties, if <G29> isn't applied to the running robot.
Exactly. You could easily take one robot go park it in front of a goal E-Stop. Drive another robot and block the other goal with a non e-stopped robot. Of course this would kill your Coopertition Bonus.
