Would it be possible for a medic Ai? A bot with the medic Ai would follow its tag team partner and slowly heal it but doesnt heal itself.

[G.K.]

Probably.

Would it be possible for a medic Ai? A bot with the medic Ai would follow its tag team partner and slowly heal it but doesnt heal itself.

Yes. It would require roughly three things:
1. A way of determining which bot needs to be followed by the medic.
2. A negative value in plus.damage(BotID, Amount, (0,0,0)) to heal the Ally
3. Something to stop it from constantly healing the bot (it would end up with more than 100% Health, otherwise)

Here are the tools:
plus.getHealth(bot#, ComponentID)
plus.getHitpoints(bot#, ComponentID)

Now go create.

:D Apanx!

How can I AI something with FBS.py to spin. I'm trying to AI a shell spinner for ELBITE. I wired the weapon to the drive so whenever the drive is running, the weapon SHOULD be going with it. The bot moves under AI but the weapon doesn't spin. Halp?

[Virus Bomb]

use FBSPlus.py

[Somebody]

Do I have to wire anything else for that because the shell still doesn't spin.

[G.K.]

The Sheck should have its own Spin Button.

[Somebody]

It works thanks guys!

[JoeBlo]

why would you be using FBSPlus.py for a shell spinner ?

unless its a SnS/ Hybrid the chassis will keep spinning around on the LeftRight control ?

[G.K.]

Minifridge 4 uses FBSPlus so it can move.

Whats wrong with these bindings:

    list.append(("Grappler","Omni",
{'invertible':True,'nose':math.pi,'radius':0.1,'topspeed':100,'throttle
':130,'turn':60,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(39,42)}))

When I try to start a match my game has a 'runtime error'

[Pwnator]

Are you sure it has at least 42 components?

[Vertigo]

I don't know, but when it had the same bindings as Big Metal Friend it worked, its only when I edited the nose direction thingy that it crashed. It used to be 'nose':math.pi*2, but the bot faced the wrong way so I changed it

[Virus Bomb]

any random spaces in the bot's name?

[Vertigo]

Nope, like I say, it worked before I changed the nose direction, it just didn't face the right way

[Somebody]

Consult Philetbabe's AI Chart. Don't have a link on me but it has a section on Nose.

[Vertigo]

Thats what I used

[martymidget]

What is so horribly wrong with these bindings?

Code: [Select]

# 35 - The Pandorica "The Pandorica will open, and silence will fall."
    list.append(("Pacey Macey","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
    list.append(("Iron Filings","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
    list.append(("Mouldy Cheese 2","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
    list.append(("Scorcher VIII","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
    list.append(("The guy with the ballast","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
    list.append(("A VS :O","Omni",{'radius':0.1,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'range':99,'turn':50,'turnspeed':2,'weapons':(1,2,3)}))
Thanks XD
