Backwards weapon
« on: December 30, 2014, 11:06:23 PM »
How would one go about AI-ing a robot like BackStabber (season 3 RW UK) which has a weapon the back
Is it possible?

I would just have the bot start turned 180 degrees.

Use two smart zones.

Well, it'd be kinda pointless

opponents very rarely ever go to the back, so, if you want a back weapon, I would suggest a saw or a spinner (ala Sergeant Bash or Matilda). a Hammer would require precise timing and have a little bit of delay where as a spinner would damage the opponent as soon as it touches the weapon.

all in all, backwards weapons aren't all that effective and I'd discourage you from building one, but if you want to build one anyway, a spinner would be the way to go.

However, if you want to build a hammer or a piston...

Use two smart zones.

this might work.

Use two differently named smartzones ("weapon" and "weapon1") AND two Fire buttons ("Fire" and "Fire1") and OmniMultiZone.py.
