Hmm. I didn't know about the field before 09. And since I cannot be sure about the field code, I'd say your better odds are on what Alan is saying. On the other hand, I'm certain that the practice match behaves as I described. Of course you can easily flip there from Tele.

Also, you should verify independently, but this year, the robot communications code automatically latches the joystick state and the I/O state before transitioning to Auto Enabled. This acts as both a filter to ensure no joystick inputs drive the robot, and to make it simpler for teams to access their switches and joystick throttles, etc.
