Do you want pits or no pits? I will leave this open for 1 day then film with the results.
If someone could help me with the later opening pits I'd really appreciate it.
-
Yes, I would like pits, however, I'd like them to open later on in the match, like in the heat of the battle, when one bot may already be down for the count.
-
How long do I have to vote?
-
1 day.
If you guys vote for "Yes, but later", I need help from some mod magician.
-
Phil has a handy little .py file for that somewhere.
-
Yes to the pits*! It's to give the flippers and rammers in there a chance against spinners and hammers.
* Well, it does say so in my sig!

Thanks JB, you're a life saver.

NO GHEY PITS PLZ
And making the pits to open later isn't very difficult. I'll check it out.

You probably charge interest too...

I can't find a Tick function similar to the BBEANS arena but i might have found an interesting line for your "open pits later" problem:
self.Pit1 = Hazards.PitSlider(startblock, 45, (-8.77, 0, 8.31))
The countdown MIGHT be that 45 but i'm not sure...
-
the 45 is roughly how many seconds will elapse before the pits will open
if it is set to 20 the timer on a 3 min match will show 2:48 when they open so its pretty close
-
Craaig <3 Pits.
The first time I've openly announced it. And now I'll hide in my hole :P
-
i have a chance if there are pits:D

Whoa-kay....looks like pits but later won. If JB could help me with the .py or tell me how to do it I'd be really grateful.
-
How late do you want them to open? I can sort it if I know the time.The thing Nary found was it. However, the number doesn't directly correspond to time. For instance, 200 makes them open at 1:20 if you do a 3-min match.
-
Nevermind, I figured it out.
-
Excellent.
-

hehe everyone forgot about my post :P
you will have to tweak that as the larger the number the more it will be "out" from the actual time
eg: if it is set to 20 the timer on a 3 min match will show 2:48 when they open so its pretty close
if you set it to a larger number it could be out by about 30 seconds
-
Man, all you guys diving into the game is really awesome. :bigsmile:
Other options:
....The pits could open AND close at strategic times/situatons.
....The pits could open AND close quickly, like a cuttlefish would 'clamp onto' and/or just 'consume'.
....(could make S-32's PS work a real arena skin... Also maybe make the eyes follow the victim, just before the attack! hehe)
