When are teleop tower points counted?

Teleop tower points are counted 3 seconds after the end of the match to allow for a brief period during which additional scoring opportunities can occur immediately following the conclusion of the match. This timing is critical as it accounts for any last-minute actions that robots may take as the match draws to a close. The 3-second window provides a final opportunity for teams to secure points, making it an essential aspect of the scoring process during teleoperated periods. This rule helps maintain a level of excitement and competitiveness right until the last moments of play, as teams may still have strategies in place to optimize their points even after the match timer runs out.
