Allright, dont under estemeate me. This may sound like a dumb idea, but a racetrack could be fun. Track down your opponant and beat him down as hes driveing, or spin him out, take out some of his wheels, u never know. Use a cannon or somthing on him. Think about it. Fun Fun! :D

DSL stands for the forum names of the three main developers of the Mod. Darkrat, Starcore and Lu-Tze. There is a racetrack arena, but it isn't that good. IMO
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

I think someone asked this before. The problem is there is no way to count laps, so other than for normal combat, making a racetrack wouldn't make sense.
The real problem with reality is the absence of background music.

There was a dragstrip arena, where the "winner" self-destructed in a pool of lava at the far end of the track.  Wasn't real good for high speed bots, but kinda fun trashing your opponent, then running like heck ....

I'm seriously considering making an official Race mode in the next DSL patch.  If so, it might turn into a DSL 3.0 *gasp*

Because FB has the AI code almost all figured out.  Just some minor tweaks left, and making some actual arenas.

Barbie was right...

No, its a bot in my showcase. It has 6 E-Tek Drive (very fast), but only has a single boxing glove for a a weapon, so it can only hit you once. Hence the name, One-hit Wonder.
