Now For Us people who Absoutley love Robot Wars, Is it possible the DSL Team can make a RW AI Pack edited from the first DSL AI included the well known Bots replacing the Battlebots such as....
X-Terminator (Spinner Version)
M2
Atomic
Grim Reaper
Thermidor
St Agro
Dantomkia
13 Black
Mute
Ripper
Raging Knightmare
Ewe 3
Gravity (Definetly)
Tsunami
Tough As Nails
Spawn Again
Merlin
Bigger Brother
you Know series 6 & 7 Semi Finalist for Middleweights and Heavyweights
And Featherweights for the Lightweight Class....
DTK
Rip
Whipper
G3
Cutlet
Rampage 2
Kenny
What do you think of this Idea? Especially X-termininator and Dantomkia?

There is going to be a DSL 2.1 and I'm going to get seriously working on it after BBEANS. However, I'm going to concentrate mostly on bug fixes and component balancing rather than on adding more new stuff.
Plans so far:
Fix vertical spinner mysteriously unbalancing glitch (Mr. Weedy and Vertigo know about this) -- Done
Fix Ocean Platform and Compressor Arena events -- Not done, but know how to do it
Decrease power on Ocean Platform hazards
Double check for components marked as non-standard that shouldn't be and fix them
Shorten E-tek motor to a more accurate height (leaving shaft the same length so bots don't get messed up, but adding another lower connection point)
Rebalance all weapons so piercing, concussion, hitpoints, and mass all calculate to a constant efficiency (right now the balancing is just guesswork for what seems best)
Use .bot file editing to shorten some replicas (Biohazard, Ruiner, Tornado Mer, Vertigo) to a more accurate height
If replicas are added, they will include bots (bigger than BW) built by members of the RA2 community. Evil Engine Number 9, VD4.0, Bliss, Tremor, and Apollyon strong possibilities.

YAY!
If you want either the solidworks files that go with it, or just some high res shots of the render/bot, let me know. Bot should be coming together very soon.(waiting for a bunch of metal/random things to show up)
-
Will the E-Teks be downsized to approximately the normal size of a Z-Tek?
I definitely want to see Apollyon built, complete with flamethrower. That would rock .......
-
The E-teks are just going to be flatter. Right now they're about as tall as they are wide, while real E-teks are more pancake-shaped (like Perms).
Also, I'll only be able to make Apollyon for DSL if it's a real bot by then. I can't work off of renders; there's not enough detail.

my metal order should show up next week, then it's just a matter of getting a few hours in at RIT's machine shop.

Very cool. Hey, Mike, maybe draw up a set of blueprints of Appollyon for CB and FB. Hell, I might go into DSL myself and try it, but I'd need to add a custom flamethrower .... like Lu-Tze's mini flamer or something.

There's essentially the exact layout of components besides flamethrower gear. armor is all 6061 AL with an A2 tool steel wedge, so not much internal to see
Sides and back will be lime green with the top, bottom and front(not the steel) painted black.
-
Pretty nifty, Mike. I wish I could make 3d models. Then I could make some replicas myself.
-
Wow burnbot you seem to have A WHOLE NEW ROBOTIC WORLD
-
Just a question, Click. Since you only stated 5 replicas, will the 6th be one from RW/BB? Dantomkia is a good idea since you have the flipper ingame.
-
6th will most likely be one of Andy Sauro's bots (he was a member at AU). Forgot to mention that. It will either be Slap Em Silly or the new HW Sir Loin.
-
Speaking of AU, whatever happened to all of its members when the site died? They ALL couldn't have simply quit playing .....

I found my way here after the death.

People either went back to RFSHQ, ARC (and its latest reencarnation), the offical forums, or just disappeared from the face of the earth.
