Title: DSL 2.4
Post by: Redalert on April 25, 2019, 08:58:02 AM
I just heard that DSL 2.3 is dead, and I'd like to work on DSL 2.4 I will appreciate help on this!

Here are the modifications.
Since IRL is THE most popular type now, I'm considering rebooting all the original teams (Red Zone-The Scrappers) to having IRL bots instead of Standard.
I'm also considering adding 6 Antweight teams and 3 Beetleweight teams.

I would like to have some help making these IRL bots! I know you're all great IRL builders!
Leave the Antweights and Beetleweights to me. I'll build those.

Another modification- unlocking all the BattleBots parts. I would also like some help on this as well!

Finally, a 2018 BattleBots Arena.

The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can get to playing it!

So it's just an AI pack and an arena?
I don't think that's what we'd call DSL 2.4.  If anything it would be 2.2.1.

I'm not sure what the point of this is. You already have several AI packs so I'm not sure why you would need to make another when very few people actually play them.

I also don't see the need to label this as DSL.

I mean, tbh, an AI pack to replace the existing bots with actual IRL ones would be pretty sweet. It's hard to gauge my bots' performance when all I have to fight against is Shogun, Cranky Spanky, and Panic Attack. We could also take advantage of stuff like OBJRA2, component freedom, and the DSC colour packs, which obviously weren't around when the DSL AI bots were constructed.

Such a pack already exists. RedAce made it https://gametechmods.com/forums/modifications/dsl-reborn-ai/

So wait, if your putting Hoppin's AI in and not adding any components what are you actually adding?

I know you mentioned the battlebots parts but I just dont think thats gonna happen.
