Game Version: DSL
Realistic: YES
Bot weight: Lightweight
Bot type: Flipper, Popup, SnS or Hammer.
Bot restrictions: Max of 2 things from weapons section allowed.

I'll host if you want.

Post by: powerrave on January 12, 2011, 01:20:09 PM
if the bots are already AIed, i could host. otherwise. i will have to try my best at AIing without screwing up.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on January 12, 2011, 01:24:43 PM
Well, i'm no good at AIng and i'm not sure if HORROR can or not.
If FOTEPEX can AI then i shall let him host.
I just need to edit my bot a bit more and then it shall be under the bot exchange

Well i now have my bot ready but i need to test it first.
I think i shall upload it to the exchange within two days.
Sorry about the wait :P

Had to use a different computer for a while but eventually i got to upload it.

FOTEPX, you can host... erm... uhhh... WHEN can you host?
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on January 20, 2011, 11:22:33 AM
Well i just PM'd him and he was busy with other stuff so if you want i can let powerrave do it.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on January 20, 2011, 11:53:59 AM
i can do it. just one thing. please don't hit me when AI is bad. that's just one part i'm not good at. i will still try my best.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)

@Powerrave: Have you started it yet? did you even remember this thread? do you know where the bots are?
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 02, 2011, 11:57:59 AM
i thought... 'if they want me to host this, they do need to send their bots to me.'
maybe i should have actually asked for it here instead of just thinking. sooooo... where are the bots?

looked and i think i found them. i'll get to AIing when i have the time for it.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 03, 2011, 05:39:25 AM
DP.

it might take a while now. the AI seems fine, but i can't test it at all. the bots crash the game as soon as i start a match to see if they work. this is pretty much why i never do AIing actually. stuff goes wrong and i have no answer for it.


EDIT: got it working, matches filmed, edited it in Sony Vegas and is currently being uploaded to my Youtube channel.

 :bigsmile: Awesome
Nice match but not a great build from me TBH
and thanks powerrave  :mrgreen:
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 03, 2011, 12:26:54 PM
no problem.

problem with AIing was this time my game being a bit beat up from all the crap i did with it. myself a clean DSL copy and proper working AI. yay.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: Scorpion on February 03, 2011, 03:31:29 PM
Yep, that is a surprise actually, although I find it quite funny that both bots are so similair.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 04, 2011, 01:48:58 AM
Actually i had 2 different SnS i wanted to send but one always havoked and the other couldn't self-right.
So i made a flipper  :approve:
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 04, 2011, 04:43:29 AM
wait. SnS + not being able to self-right? SnS as should be invertible.

i have to say here. when i first checked the two bots, i was somewhere certain Horror would win. the match came as a surprise and got me wondering one thing. How is you wedge better then Horrors bots wedge while yours was clearly lacking speed.

It should've been able to self-right but hypnos and astro's weren't big enough and i guess i was a bit lazy with it.

Because i cheated No idea i guess... maybe my wedge was slightly stronger?
I had more weight near that end?
Anyway i have a problem with teh slimbodies as that i cannot see or click the attach button.
know what's wrong?
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 04, 2011, 10:55:28 AM
no idea. but that would be a different topic. ask in the support section. meanwhile, add '(Ty4er wins)' to the thread title and let it die out, unless someone else feels like posting something useful in here.
my work here is done.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: Bubbleman on February 04, 2011, 03:23:02 PM
WAIT! I was browsing this section, and when i look at the rules compared to the bots, Ty4er's bot has more than 2 items feom the weapons section if the thing on the flipper is a beater bar. Ty4er should either:
Be disqualified and the win be given to Horror
OR
Re-run the match with an update of Ty4er's bot.
Stating the obvious, don't mind me...
*walks away whistling 'I am the one and only'*

i see what he means. your bot has 3 weapon components. i did not read this earlier, so my blame there, but you Ty4er, did break your own made rule.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: Bubbleman on February 04, 2011, 03:34:24 PM
@Ty4er: The 2 typhoon spikes coming out from the sides, and the beater on the flipper make three weapons
(sorry for bringing this up if i am wrong about the side extenders)
@powerrave: I think Horror made the rule
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 04, 2011, 03:36:13 PM
NONONONONNONONONONONONO
I think what HORROR meant was like you can have a flipper and a hammer on the same bot but it can't be like a pop-up aswell?
Yet i have no idea if he meant like on the actual game; if so then sorry i mis-read it and will you allow me to change it?
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 04, 2011, 03:38:43 PM
you sure? either way, a broken rule is a broken rule. so either the win is given to Horror or there will be a re-run. re-run only if both Ty4er and Horror agree on this, and if Ty4er can come with a bot that is within the rules.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 04, 2011, 03:43:33 PM
Well it could be either of teh two.
Would you count a DSL bar to be a weapon as i remember reading somewhere that they do damage on the sides...
And why is HORROR not here to help sort this out  :(
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 04, 2011, 03:51:13 PM
don't know. poke him with a spear and ask him.

DSL bars are originally weapons. that rules counts on anything from the weapon tab.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: Horror on February 16, 2011, 11:05:32 AM
BUMP! (sorry)
[info]Max of 2 things from weapons section allowed.[/info]

Yes, that means the weapons tab. so sorry Ty4er, but you lost.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 16, 2011, 11:07:19 AM
So are we having a re-run?
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 16, 2011, 01:27:34 PM
IF Horror would reply here, we might be able to come to a conclusion.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 16, 2011, 01:34:28 PM
This was his reply to my PM's a few mins ago.
no, you broke the rules, when i clearly said *Max of two weapons from weapons section allowed). [/talking]
And yet he said this some time ago (if it was him)

Hi, its horror here while my account is updated, and if you are wondering, you can perform a re-run of the challenge. just tell powerrave.
I'm confused  :(
Oh and the reason i didn't say much was i didn't get any more important info that i wanted  :confused:
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 16, 2011, 01:42:01 PM
confusing, tell him to go to this thread ASAP.

I want to know what the ultimate result will be. does the win go to Horror because of a broken rule or will there be a re-run with you both sending in a NEW bot (to prevent any form of cheating).

What? who sent this?
But if you want a re-run, fine, we will both make new bots, so no-one knows what we are entering, so you can't counter my bot and visa-versa. is that ok with you powerrave, as you are the ai-er?
Note: See you next wednesday, as i am not allowed to post any other day but can upload things. (don't ask me why). look on the robot exchange for my bot.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: powerrave on February 16, 2011, 02:24:53 PM
from my post before this one, you know i am ok with both. This way, it seems that there will be a re-run. I'll go look for the bots when I have some time. have been lacking some the last time and also have the Jonzu vs SSG challenge to host.
Title: Re: TY4ER vs HORROR (Battle)
Post by: ty4er on February 16, 2011, 03:21:55 PM
Just sent the thing im going to use on the exchange  :approve:
And it doesn't really matter about the wait, aslong as we get a fight  ;)
