The shell is well done, but the hammer/spike seems out of proportion. Perhaps it's just me.

It is a heavyweight, but maybe it should be downgraded to MW... the grid wouldn't let me make the chassis very big.  So it can be a big MW or a small HW.

DSL 2.0 will be released in x days, where

1/(x^(1/3) + 1) - y/(x + y) = x^2 + y^2 + i

and y is unknown.

i.o. I don't know :P

I think it might make a great powerful MW.  As a HW it might end up being tossed around by flipper and vertical disks.

Today you get to see another part of the slick new graphics in DSL 2.0: the bot selection screen.  There's occasionally been some confusion about whether the resurrected stock AI are replacing the original replica AI - this preview should dispel any such fears.  As you can see, each team has 3 stock DSL bots and 3 custom replicas arranged in a stylish grid.

I don't get it, they're nice graphics but if..

There will be ample space for any additional AI teams players want to add. I'm not sure there is even a limit.


.. then why not make 30 teams of 3 bots?

When I started to read your text Clickbeetle "Today you get to see another part of the slick new graphics in DSL 2.0: the bot selection screen..."

I thought boring... why we can't see any new parts or something more interesting but when I finished reading and then scrolled down to see the picture it was stunning.  :shock:

It really was as nice and interesting as every robot sneak peek or so.

Because some teams need the 6 bots, for example the RA1 team.  It would be kind of dumb having "Robot Arena Reincarnated #1" and "Robot Arena Reincarnated #2".  Also the teams list is less cluttered then.

I haven't gotten much more work done on DSL this week as I've been busy doing last-minute preparations for Mechwars 9.  But I do have some new graphics for the options menu to show.  Notice the new semitransparent cursor.  This is to make precision chassis designing easier since the cursor occasionally covers up the points you're trying to move.

Also it's worth pointing out again that these are Vincent's graphics.  I'm just implementing them into the game where Vincent didn't have time to.

Dang...nice job on the graphics, Vincent.  I like the see-throught cursor.
