It still says runtime error.

In your team folder is the bot file called Bot0?

When my bot loads in the game, it says runtime error. What do I do?
Anyway, here is a picture of my bot:

I now I made correct bindings.

if your bot is AIed :
if RA2 crashes before showing the arena the most common reasons are :
- your bot use unreferenced components (much as if you take a DSL bot and put it in a stock context)
-the binding is no good :
-blank (white space) used instead of tabulation
-name error (name get white space you didn't notice) , AI name error, missing ')', missing ',', case sensitive error
-double binding with the same name, and last one is with error (but your always looking at the first one)
-correct binding, but you don't have the associated AI ( the file something.py that should exist under your AI/ folder)

if it crashes after showing the arena and the countdown ... well you have touched the something.py.

if your bot is not AIed :
maybe this is your file RA2/teams/teams.txt that is corrupted.
Correction is not easy. this is what i adive :
-take a file RA2/teams/teams.txt from a good archive and erase yours.
-under RA2, re-creae teams (but do not create bots in these teams)
-exit RA2 and edit the file RA2/teams/teams.tx
-for each team that got bots, modify the line

Code: [Select]

Robots:

by

Code: [Select]

Robots: 0 1 2 3 4 5

if you've gor 6 bots for your team.

Easiest way (file teams.txt corrupted) :
-Copy your file RA2/teams/teamnumber/bot0 under RA2/teams/Robot design
-do the same for each of your bot
-take a file RA2/teams/teams.txt from a good archive and erase yours : you have loosed all of your teams but your bots maybe imported.

last spring : (if your bot is not AIed) : send me your file teams.txt

last spring : (if your bot is AIed) : send me your file binding .py

please, give feedback

Bump.

I made a TRFBD, and then for AI'ing it, I copied the wiring of the LW TRFBD in 123 AI exactly. I used the same binding line. However, it only functions as it should for ~2 seconds, whereupon it fails to move at all, and if an enemy approaches it, it sits and spins for a few seconds, before returning to its stationaryness. Anyone know why this may be the case?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #824 on:** June 12, 2011, 05:09:56 AM »

Check your nose, wiring, etc. How different is it from the one in 123AI?

G.K. · « **Reply #825 on:** June 12, 2011, 05:10:56 AM »

Nose and wiring are identical.

as for differences, there are no flails, if that helps.

Piglet motors?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #828 on:** June 12, 2011, 05:22:41 AM »

Well, I tried. TBH I shouldn't even be helping as I don't know the AI.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #829 on:** June 16, 2011, 12:34:34 AM »

And all the other TRFBD's still work?

I have no idea what could be wrong. It would seem to be an issue with the drive, since the "Spin" weapon control seems to work fine, but if you're sure the wiring, control names, and bindings are exactly the same... who knows.

G.K. · « **Reply #830 on:** June 16, 2011, 05:23:47 AM »

I've not got it in a game with other TRFBD's. Is there an update in Tactics.py or something?

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #831 on:** June 16, 2011, 10:57:18 PM »

TRFBD.py doesn't use any new tactics so it's not that.

Does the bot move correctly when you drive it? Sometimes wiring for crawlers is quite weird.

G.K. · « **Reply #832 on:** June 17, 2011, 03:43:57 AM »

The driving itself is mostly ok, but it does veer off to one side a tad.

G.K. · « **Reply #833 on:** June 18, 2011, 02:31:17 PM »

Here's a game of spot the binding error! :D

Code: [Select]

list.append(("Gicquel","Popup",{'radius':1,'topspeed':100,'throttle':130,'turn':100,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(0)}))

nightcracker · « **Reply #834 on:** June 18, 2011, 02:38:18 PM »

Ugh, who started using "list" as variable name?

Please don't do that in Python, "list" is the name of the built-in type list. If you overwrite that name you can't turn other things in lists anymore (for example, "list((5, 3, 2))").

G.K. · « **Reply #835 on:** June 18, 2011, 02:38:58 PM »

I cant't help it, it's the binding line for RA2.

Pretty sure you need a comma after your 0 in the weapons entry.

Smeg, I do, cheers Nary.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #838 on:** June 25, 2011, 12:06:49 PM »

Can anyone advise me on how to AI a trinity SnS like this?

Also, I can't seem to find the link to those weightless smartzones.

Vertigo · « **Reply #839 on:** June 25, 2011, 12:10:00 PM »

It doesn't matter if its overweight cause of a smartzone

Anyway, try just AI'ing like a normal SnS on FBSPlus, but with the pistons wired to "Spin"
