I'm going to run a tournament between 16 bots I just built today, which ever one wins I'll tweak and it becomes my entry.(And it will get renamed)

I lol'd at "Bot with Spikes".  That is the most awesomely, hilariously generic name ever.  I would totally use that as a final name.


Anyway, you all have already seen my entry.

[/end clone discussion]

Today I decided to get off my lazy @$$ and start building a bot. So far 2 failed desings. first was a prototype I just tought up of, a Piston Popdown, but that turned towards MW and HW and wouldnt do well anyways. The other one was a Beta powered Hammer powered by !1! Ant battery needless to say, epic fail for that too.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on March 29, 2010, 09:40:31 AM
RFS made a Beta-powered LW flipper for his DSL AI pack. Could flip once then it got stuck in the up position.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: somestrangeguy on March 29, 2010, 10:25:59 AM
Mine only moved 1/10 of the arc it was supposed to move and then caused the bot to tip onto its nose.

However, I now have made my bot and the name is 1.8, didnt bother testing it but it should do just fine if it doesnt face HS or Popup bots.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: G.K. on March 29, 2010, 10:56:22 AM

Here it is, Kurt Rambis:

Largely the same from the last post in my DSL thread, except for the 2 Iron Spikes added on to the sides for some extra damage and protection and the downgrade to Titanium 5 armor.

Also, Happy Birthday Sage.

 :mrgreen:


Just gotta AI the darn thing... it's significantly more complicated than Bisector (and I thought THAT was hard.  AIing Bisector was child's play compared to this.)


No pics at the moment because I'm still tweaking it.  And so Somebody can't clone it and quick upgrade his shell spinners so he can beat it.

Oh, and I should mention this before it's too late.  If you're planning on entering a melty brain SNS... PLEASE keep the tick interval as high as possible!  (Read: higher than Feeblemind or Fireside in Nar AI.)  Those melty brain SNS's can lag my game a lot even when I'm not running FRAPS, and I don't want to be recording 15-minute matches.

the calculations the python makes to manage the robots movement can lag. Feeblemind & Fireside dont have the other values in there bindings so I assume its the defaults. you can notice in some FBS.py matches of CC3 the few seconds at the start are cut away since the game lags at that point performing the calculations

Bisector 2 seems like a formidable opponent. Unfortunately, I can't enter BBEANS 6 because I have no working designs after going through 18 different prototypes that have been either too under-weaponed, too weak, or just too garbage all-around. It was good practice for my building skills, though.

I am somewhat confident, I just help that I could make a custom AI for it that turns off the drive and let the weapons quickly back up if in danger (should help against Click)

I think SpinupOmni.py can do that.

Just because you can't build a bot now doesn't mean you can't enter. The signups won't fill up in a day, it'll take a while.


I look forward to signing up for my first BBEANS tourney, regardless of what happens.  :mrgreen:  Hopefully my anti-flail design will work as well as it has in testing.

I believe this won't be overrun with flail HS's and SnS's!


Also, you had a perfect opportunity to name that bot Crucifixion or Exorcist or something (the cross-shaped chassis), and you passed it up.  Shame on you.


The bot does look very dangerous though.  Should get far.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: The Ounce on April 02, 2010, 10:23:39 PM
It would've been better anyway to use a T-shaped chassis instead and place the ants near the drive motors, if you could.

Agreed with Click on the last part though.

Also Somebody (I just noticed this), maybe it would be better to use a skirt instead of a carbon fiber extender on top of the disc.  It might not improve self-righting abilities, but it would be stronger, even though it might not get hit much and thus not matter.

From my testing, I found the popup on Pwn's Deadpool team (the one with the skirt hinge) to be pretty good. I thought Schadenfreude actually wasn't that great at all.

Mabye I've just built the greatest wedge ever :D
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Naryar on April 03, 2010, 03:59:19 AM
The wedge's pure efficiency does not matters that much in such an arena.


And yes, Infection's wedge is rather good for a skirt hinge.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Pwnator on April 03, 2010, 04:02:21 AM
And I've built the fastest LW popup ever (I also have a version with NPCFs minus an ant and a lighter lower wedge). :P

Also, I think Infection 2 seems to be as wedgy as the metal hinge popups because it's just a damn good flanker.

Oh and Badnik, my entry can beat yours, though seeing AoR's luck, it might not. XD

No damage potential, and good luck making a LW flipper that is able to get a bot OOTA easily and commonly with that drive... or you are sacrificing armor.

I am going to test medium beater bars with some more armor in front of that extender and compare it to that version to find which is more effective. Right now it has large beater bars, but at 247.0 it is strapped for weight otherwise.

Yay for hammer designs. That is a metal hinge wedge, and it has magmotor drive, 4 razors and unfortunately weak armor. On the up side, it dominates shell spinners and VS/HSes without a wedge due to its enormous pushing power and overhead weapon. The reasoning for the large number on the end is from me experimenting with new and interesting wedge designs, and this one was best, but still isn't as great as I had hoped.

Hmmm.. been doing some extra testing in the BBEANS2 arena.

The 8 razor flail I made somewhere in this thread was KOed by my new intended entry in 3 seconds.

Just downloaded NAR AI, and I tested against Bane II to simulate 8 flail fights;
The 8 razor flail bot decimates it, taking a bit of damage itself.
Current entry had problems, but would of won if not for a havok.
Intended entry decimates it, taking hardly any damage at all. It was never in trouble.

Got two different-match pictures of Bane with all external components detached. What's so good about it, seriously?
I think I'll start testing my BWs on it. Probably starting with Dynamo.

You know, I remember spending hours running battle test for the first tournament I entered (my MW VS), and that thing end up losing in round 1.

So, being too frustrated over tournament performance isn't such a good idea.  Thing is, many will enter, one will win.

Hummingbird is really cool an all, but not up to par from an effectiveness standpoint. So I built a somewhat generic popup with a cool armor setup and a great wedge and entered it. Here it is:

Death of Angels

Here's what I was planning on entering instead, but the Trov chassis makes it unwieldy and somewhat prone to havok:

The shell spinners/flail HS. With the drive it currently has, your bot will be unable to get under them and will get KOed. And since we all know there are a few of them in BBEANS6...

You may destroy ONE guy. But you may only destroy him once, and lose. Acornia is way better (and could probably beat) Ripterra (my first BBEANS bot, in BBEANS 4). I think you should do pretty well FOTEPX.

How to fix?
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Naryar on April 25, 2010, 09:43:49 AM
Add a wedge :P (Half-kidding)

But pokers and rammers with no wedge are quite vulnerable to gut rippers in most cases. That's just the design.

However, it might be able to do well against shell spinners.

Heh. Thanks everyone for the bot love.  Glad you all like it.

@Sage: Yeah, making a drum was kinda a pain.  I found that it got pretty stable once I set up the teeth like that to keep the weapon balanced while spinning.

@Naryar: If I added a battery I would have to downgrade to the next level below Plastic 1, which is nothing at all. I would imagine a nekkid bot would suffer a 1 hit KO just by hitting the arena floor upon the beginning of the match.  I liked my chances better with 3 batteries thanks.

@Powerrave:  I like the way you think!  Lack of wedge is going to be vicious with your bot though. I could not stand to enter another BBEANS without a wedge.

Well... my match against Stanley lead to a bit of a redesign. After the two clashed, it came down to a draw weapon wise (both bots lost all weapons) and Stanley got a WBP. This only proves my point that razors are always better on flails. So I downgraded to 10 razors on flails and then added two more razors mounted fixed for a grand total of 12 razors.

And now Stanley gets destroyed every single time.  :evilsmile:

Something that I found out about shell spinners: It seems that stationary weapon shell spinners pwn flail shell spinners.

Roughly. Most bots with high-piercing weapons (aka razors, be it a wammer or a shell spinner) out-weapon razor flail shell spinners.

Was it in the Stormbreakers team? I remember that having like 24 static razors :P

I am not really sure it is worth the mobility loss to use copals. Any shell spinner built with them is nearly immobile. And my 12 razor Stanley 4 loses to Schadenfreude. 10 razor Stanley 2 wins.

Try it at the BBEANS arena. You'll have less room to spin around, so beware.

you know what puzzles me? you are normally a creative builder but in the last 2 BBEANS gone for a generic option ?

I just really want to win in BBEANS. I wasn't that happy in BBEANS 4 (even though I had no right at all to win any matches with Ripterra) because I didn't win anything. I wasn't very happy in BBEANS 5 either, where Chernobyl only won one match, yet its done so well in all of those 128-bot tourneys. And I'm gonna be freaking pissed if Stanley wins zero or one match in BBEANS 6.

I do know from experience it's hard to build a good LW side hammer, but this needs front armor if you want it to survive.

I suppose depending on what it goes against, it could do really, really well. But like other people said, the lack of armor is concerning.

well may as well show mine,

more Armour
Faster drive

To be more precise, it tips the bot to its wheels since without it it will just drop onto its panels at the start of the match.

pwn takes the virtual cookie  :gawe:

I was going to use a python that fired the weapon at the start of the match but this was less time consuming, yes the robot drops on the front as the half sheet is attached on the base making it unbreakable

I tested it against stanley to a resault of 2-2 (but stanley havoked in one which pushed FH3 into the Arena blade.)

still it pinned the bloody thing pretty well and gut ripped the flails away  :gawe:

I keep happiness in knowing that there is a slim chance of facing it early with all 64 bots in there. Maybe I will get some easy matchups this time around. I never have before...

I totally did not expected your bot to do this :O
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on May 04, 2010, 01:55:00 AM
it preys on the fact Sheck Spinners in the LW category use weak drive and/ or ungrippy wheels so it pins easy then gut rips away...

I would my lying if I said the hazards didnt play a role in defeat (flipped over) but thats a good thing my robot uses them well :P
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Naryar on May 04, 2010, 02:02:13 AM
It's still going to get trashed by a popup so i won't enter this... but your choice.

Still there is a good chance of all the popups getting owned by SSs (:FFFUUU) so your bot might have a chance.
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on May 04, 2010, 02:24:23 AM
im considering not entering it now as I found some weird glitch that Im getting a heap of chassis damage through the half sheet  :FFFUUU

Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Pwnator on May 04, 2010, 02:28:42 AM
Sometimes the velocity of the weapon causes the mesh to pass through the halfsheet and into the chassis. Just like why some popups can still KO castered HSes.

Yes! Infection 2 still pwns some metal hinges!

And I'm quite surprised it can't beat KEP despite the skirt hinge armor. If it can deflect flails, it should deflect KEP since both bots use a Mag. o_O
Title: Re: BBEANS 6 Bot Showcase
Post by: Naryar on May 05, 2010, 04:43:44 AM
Well, when it crashes at high speed into KEP (NPC Fasts plus large ants is an awesome drive for a LW popup, excepted for the wheel HP), your bot goes tumbling around the arena and it hits the 3mm Plastic top quite easily  :mad:

well here is my new (and original) robot.. covers pretty much all opponents now...

its got a good wedge and should it get under you your in trouble (took Stanley's chassis into red on first contact) and does toss robots OOTA occasionally

out wedge it ? still no luck there.. its heavily armored and offense on the underside

but I could ramble more.. but a picture says 1000 words
