hi everyone i want to have some nice and powerful guns for use in my bot.
i only have a minicannon which is not very powerful.
-
The exe controls the power/force of projectiles. So it is what it is.
But some cool mods have been done with cannons. ACAMS, MadBeaver, and Madiaba. PM one or more of them, and they may share some tweaks...
-
I would like to see if Pistols, Revolvers, and Assault Rifles could be created...
-
same here but you know what i realy want to see
4 dif guns:
RPG
Nadelauncher
Minigun
ShockwaveCannon
I would like to see if Pistols, Revolvers, and Assault Rifles could be created...
-
pistols revolvers and assault rifles ARE possible, but i never managed to bukld a auto cannon.
ACAMS had a machine gun, bit IDK about it. best thing i did was a shotgun(mega adapter, and a easily stackable extender. BUT i attached it to a chicken drill. the extenders were attached in mega adapter DURING chicken glitch for the effect.
I could attach more with AAM, but im too lazy.

Personally I woudn't. Maybe just a minigun and a cannon.
-
Check post date before posting in a topic please. Almost a year bump.
-
cheatbot2 already gives you a cannon, but I like the minigun idea.
-
guns completly destroys the point about robot fighting
robots would just sit there shooting at each other
-
^True^
-
I will agree with Stag as well.
-
Ditto.
Exept the flamethrower- I think that can stay. Besides, JB would be heartbroken if it wasn't legal anymore. :P
-
*runs in* gah did somebody say no flamethrowers D:
while I dislike projectiles I don't see flamethrowers as one, they don't have any bigger range then some hammers, etc they are still close range weaponry imo ;)
-
Didn't you said you were a projectile bot specialist yesterday ?
...i just could not resist...
-
I just used the catagory from the Wiki
it said projectile = flamethrowers in bot types, doesn't mean I agree with the name choice
:p lol
rest of the projectiles are cheating, maybe its time we split them up.. new bot type Pyro ?

Hehe.

Projectiles are fun for non-tourney bots, battles, in certain arenas. But...
Well....I think it was mentioned before (maybe in the old forum), but someone could make a "Military Tourney' with cannons (fire arms) with little effort.....I'll post it in the 'arena ideas' thread....NVM...it's appropriate here:
>Bots are military in appearance (truck, tank, jeep,...)
>AI-ed bots have cannons with py SOW(automatic servo aimed weapons) controls, while py and/or SZ triggers.
>Bots start at far ends of arena with only a few environmental obstacles.
>They are held apart by 'addExtra..' inserted gmf walls; 2 on each side.
---
>As the battle begins the Armed bots must shoot 'long range firing' for 'X' time.
>Then the farthest 'addextra,,,' gmf object is removed, and this allows the bots to come closer to the next 'addExtra' gmf object and thus 'medium range firing'.
>Finally, these are removed and the bots can go as close as they are AI-ed to in Bindings ('radius'), and have it out...(Flame throwers and manual weapons allowed up close....)
Each entrant has to design and build his own military style entry, using up to 2 cannons, limited armor, wheels or treads, turreted weapons (as mentioned) or just mounted to bot.....

Nice bump everyone!
EDIT:white Text for no reason: Really great!
-
@Mad
Im sure 70cuda and someone else where working on something like this.
-
TriTon: its not a bump if there is an actual discussion from doing so, bumping is only bad if its a post such as "LOL funny", "links broken" or something else useless :P
-
@Mad

Eeerrrrr, yea.
Well, I have an arena for this in my 'Mad RA2 version', but I wanted to save it for other things, and it has too many hazards for a tourney, IMO. I was thinking just a flat arena, with 1 on 1 scats, emphasis on the builders' skills.
-
sorry.
i didnt know it was you mad.
i just remembered it a post by 70cuda and it was like a warzone arena thing.
i have a really bad memory and tend to forget somethings.
again sorry.
-
>NP, Ash, just teasing you a bit. BTW, If you actually did do something then just apologize, no need for self-abasement. I can't remember everything here either, and it doesn't really matter anyway...
Forget it! (*Huh?*)
>Tourney: I talked with Joe and several others about this kind of tourney, and it seems like there is interest and thus would be worth the effort. Right now, though, there are too many tourneys going, so we'll wait a bit.
-
i agree with the amount of tournaments.
it feels like every other day someone is trying to create a new tourny.
-
2009 is full up, until a few more clear out of the current running list no more can move up because of the fact some have been there longer then other members
I might need to talk with RR and 1 vs 2 might get moved down to upcoming due to his life outside this forum.
ELBITE, not really sure what is happening, same goes with Micro Mayhem.
Doomed Bots should wrap up soon with only about 3 more videos to come
anyway, lets not trek off topic anymore...
I am in full support of this tournament idea and would love to see it done ;)
-
I am supporting this idea as well.
I am probably stating the obvious but we must place strict rules on cannons, like not more than 2 and maybe everyone should use the same cannon.
