RedAce vs Clickbeetle vs Thrackerzod (Clickbeetle Wins)

[Thrackerzod]

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.

[yugitom]

Hello there. I like hosting.

[Thrackerzod]

Hello there. I like hosting.

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

[yugitom]

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.

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.

What? RedAce Is Evolving?

[yugitom]

Oh yeah, forgot to say that this will definitely be finished tomorrow. I caught up by life out of nowhere (kind of), but this will be uploaded.

This Uploaded To Youtube?

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

Can the supposed Bot of the Month live up to it's name by outclassing it's competitors in a fight?

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.

[Naryar]

Nah, not splash of the month. it's MEME of the month which is even sadder.

was rooting for clickbeetle :D

[Thrackerzod]

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.

[yugitom]

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.

[DeadGenocide]

Spooky scary
this is the wrong season :P

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.
