Title: Random question
Post by: Mecha on April 03, 2015, 01:58:07 PM: You know how the Stock AI bots have like Double Strength armors, would it be cheating to take a bot that has DS Steel (like emergency), make a bot out of it's chassis, and to enter it in a tournament? I know it would probably be useless but I was wondering because it's not BFE or anything.

There is a reason that people say to build the bot around the components.

Also, unless I modified the version of Emergency that I have on my Mac, it has standard steel armor. I think I have a list of all of the armor types used by the stock AI somewhere on my gaming PC...
