Interaction with other robots

I was rather disappointed last year to realize that many teams (sometimes it seemed like the majority of teams) seemed to ignore any plans you would make before the match and it was very rare to find a coach you could actually work with in the middle of the match. I saw this across the board of experienced and inexperienced teams and the effect definitley was horrible.

Of course, this is understandable. Teams spend months preparing for a just a few matches of competition and it is kind of hard to change your strategies and possibly lose because of what someone else is saying.

I don't see any reason for the situation to improve this year, but there is definitley reason for it to get worse. With 3 robots, getting 3 drive teams together before matches and talking will be more challenging and with the chaos of a 3 alliance game, you can pretty much forget about in game team work.

I have brought up this question to my team members and they say we have about 24 hours before the match to talk to your alliance members.
