They are AIed. Identicaly AIed.

That makes no difference, even if they have the same bindings they still won't drive exactly the same way.

...Are you happy now ??

So is it random, or will one consistantly win over the other, for some reason.

Random.

its random if they are the same. but its still only one perfect robot. theres nothing special about it fighting itself, because that doesnt matter if its the same.

Are you sure?

Try it yourself if you're that curious.

Perfect bot, huh? Even if there were such, because there are more factors than the bot itself, the outcome is not predictable.
Because I had nothing else or better to do today (yea, right) I put the same bot (Alien Queen) against itself for 5 sets of 10 matches, in the Combat arena (no hazards). The results were...
.........Matches:
Bot1: 6
Bot2: 4

Bot1: 5
Bot2: 5

Bot1: 7
Bot2: 3

Bot1: 4
Bot2: 6

Bot1: 7
Bot2: 3

Bot2 only won one set. If done again, the results would be different, of course. So obviously, other factors than just 'bot-condition' (even if 'perfect') matter.

Wherever the Ai starts in the Combat Arena, they are programed to turn around the Spikes, and that leaves a big opening.

most people turn off hazards in the combat arena, and when they are turned off the AI doesn't avoid them.

Actually, they do. Fight Ronin and watch.

you FAIL. everyone turns off hazards in the combat arena, and when they are turned off the AI doesn't avoid them.

Like I would know.

I doubt we'll ever get a perfect bot, every bot has a strength or weakness. Some bots are better built, but it comes down to a combo of driver skill, a little luck and building. Hell even Axe bots can be broad.
