Hey I just had a thought. Click, RedAce, y'all up for a BotM rumble match? Just to see what happens?
Why not, as long as Click is up for that, then I don't see a reason not to.

Sure, if you want to make a thread in the challenge board I'll AI Kaleidor and send it over. I reckon I can use Thwartoise's AI.

So this is gonna happen. Let's use the DSL tournament arena, unless RedAce or Click has a problem with that. Also we could use a host, if someone's up for that.

Hello there. I like hosting.

Thanks, man! I'll get Bonemera to you shortly.

Post by: yugitom on February 05, 2016, 02:58:50 PM: I've got all but Click's bot.

Right, I need clarity on what's going on. DSL tournament arena is all I know. Is it whoever gets to two victories wins, or is it a one-off fight? How long? Hazards on/off?

Oops, sorry dude. Let's do first to 2 wins, hazards on, 3 minute matches. Unless, of course, RedAce or Click has a problem with those settings.

Post by: Clickbeetle on February 06, 2016, 06:15:20 PM: I put Kaleidor on the bot exchange. And here is its AI:

Code: [Select]
list.append(("Kaleidor","BiDirRam",{'ThresholdSpeed':0.02,'BackUpTime':4,'SightRange':1.5,'range':99,'radius':1,'topspeed':100,'throttle':100,'turn':100,'turnspeed':3,'weapons':(17,21,22,27,28,29),'sweapons':(12,20,23,26,30,31)}))
You will need BiDirRam.py, which is in my AI essentials pack so chances are good you already have it. Nothing else special.

DSL tourney arena first to 2 wins sounds good to me.

Thanks man. Don't worry about the delay; real life always comes before some dumb game from 2003.

Looks like it's Splash of the Month, after all ;)

On a side note, f*** this challenge. It crashed my game so many times, there must have just been too many parts flying about. Took me about 15 attempts for these 2 full matches. However, I endeavored with recording and finally got it done.

Edit: I'll give a virtual pat on the back for anyone that recognises the music I used.

was rooting for clickbeetle :D

Post by: Thrackerzod on February 12, 2016, 10:48:32 PM: Thanks a bunch for recording this. Was really cool seeing all the bots in action!

I had a feeling Click was gonna take it. Kaleidor was more heavily weaponed than Shrapnel (which was at a major disadvantage, being IRL style), and had the mobility that Bonemera didn't. GG all y'all.

Dang, I didn't even think of that, but yeah. Bonemera certainly has a lot of components, and Robot Arena tends to hate that. Sorry about that; thanks for doing it anyway!

Okay, I want to defend myself a little bit. I put a lot of time into the Bonemera splash, and honestly I thought it looked the best of the three options. Despite the misaligned hand, it had an original (i think) sort of style to it. I also liked that it was bright and eye-catching. That said, I have retired Mr. Bones from BotMs as of now, since I don't want to be seen as a one-trick pony. A normal pony is plenty good enough.

Post by: yugitom on February 13, 2016, 09:16:24 AM: Tbf, your Mr Bones robots have really been quite good and the splash detail is great. You don't have to retire it if you still enjoy doing it. In fact, I'd say it would be more of an incentive for those that no longer want to see Mr Bones to make a good BOTM to beat him.

The bot and splashes by themselves aren't bad. The fact that you have entered a Mr Bones Wild Ride bot in three successive BOTM's, however...

Also we should do more BOTM rumbles ! I think it's a good idea.

Post by: RedAce on February 13, 2016, 10:34:52 AM: I feel the more you do something in a repetitive state, the more normal it is. And normal is as predictable and boring as normal gets. In fact, the repetition of something you get annoyed by can make you feel numb to the pain.

Anyway...

GG Click and Thrack. I expected Kaleidor to win since it was the only bot to actually be set for a competitive scene.

Thanks for hosting yugi. Apologies if my bot had something to do with the technical difficulties.
