Almost anything that makes the field any bit fragile will be broken by teams through gameplay.

I would love to see the scoring areas move. Something where you place the game piece at Point A, but then because of it, Point A is moved. Maybe something like a balance scale. Such would make your "game" move.

Our practice game goals are in an area which is off-bounds to the robots (a corridor in front of the opposite alliance wall). We also have a "steam valve" we can turn with the robot which will suspend movement of one of the goals for several seconds.

Scoring areas (goals) have moved before, though it was due to robot actions, not field actions. 2001 Diabolical Dynamics, 2002 Zone Zeal, and 2004 FIRST Frenzy all had goals which could be moved by robots. 2009 Lunacy "goals" were trailers mounted behind the opposing alliance's robots.
