Search "Anti Ballasts". You'll find what you're looking for.

Look in the download database under Components for Anti Ballast and once installed you put them on your bot to remove weight, but be sure to remove them before using your bot.

You must delete the anti-ballast before you start to fight.

Also, which anti-ballast is best if I just want the anti-ballast, and not other parts.

Thx, I see... BUT thats no anymore my problem!

My Problem is, that atm I can use only standart items for Multiplayer gaming! And my question is, how to evade it.

"Only robots with fully standart items can be used for compition." Something like that is written...

mhm sounds good, but the problem is, I cant even open my own bot, not even if my friend isnt yet inside.... I attached a screenshot of my issue. Maybe someone knows it.

Well, im using ver. 1.2, I dont know if this could be the problem?

greetings

EDIT: Well I see the Errorlog doesnt appear. But you could imagine a litle errorbox in the mittle of the screen. In this box is written:

"Only standart equip for multiplayer competition."

Go to C:\Program Files\Infogrames\Robot Arena 2 and open ra2.cfg with notepad and change
 
AllowNonStandardMultiplayer=0
to
AllowNonStandardMultiplayer=1
 
THEN make sure EVERYBODY in the game has the same components as you, and they also have to edit the ra2.cfg

There is a way to evade it.

BUT, you have to be careful, because if you try to use non-standard parts in multiplayer and any of your opponents don't have them installed, then the game will crash.  Make sure your friends have all the same parts you do before doing this:

Open ra2.cfg in the Robot Arena 2 folder.  Add a new line saying "AllowNonStandardMultiplayer = 1" anywhere in the file.

Edit: Aw, ACAMS beat me to it!  Well, redundancy never hurt anybody.

yes. if you are bitten, then let go, then are bitten again in the same spot, it will hurt you more then if you only got bitten once.

Yeah, but teeth are small. If a drill goes in the same spot twice the damage won't be as great as the first time. (Not taking Pressure or force into the equation.)

FYI S32, Sage was attacked by a pack of really hungry wolves at 6 and survived.

But the thing is, you can't bring new information into the affirmative argument ('redundancy never heard anybody' is the resolution). All the negative side needs to do is to prove it wrong once, and the affirmative loses the argument, because if it CAN hurt someone, the the affirmative side loses cause the resolution is negated. By bringing in the new argument about a drill, you are dropping the argument about the teeth, meaning it stands (and if i want to take it further, i can say by not arguing it, you agree to it.) since it stands, i win the argument, as i explained earlier.

just a little debate 101.
