Can we pick up and place more than one piece in auto?

After we’ve placed the game piece that was pre-loaded, can we pick up more game pieces and place them in auto? Or can we only place the pre-loaded piece? Thanks!

From my understanding of the rules this is allowed.

From the manual:
6.2 Autonomous Period

The first phase of each MATCH is 15 seconds long and called the Autonomous Period (AUTO). During
AUTO, ROBOTS operate without any DRIVE TEAM control or input. ROBOTS attempt to score GAME
PIECES on GRIDS, exit their ALLIANCE’S COMMUNITY, retrieve additional GAME PIECES, and DOCK on
and/or ENGAGE with their CHARGE STATION before the end of the phase. There is a 3 second delay
between AUTO and the Teleoperated Period during which time AUTO scores are assessed.

I agree as you can place 4 pieces on the field and as to my reading it does not say anywhere you cant touch them in auto
