Robo, can you release all these maps in the Gmod workshop? I'd love to test these in singleplayer as well.
Yeah, I will upload them on the workshop tomorrow.

I never put any effort into working out how to make things in gmod, has anyone got a basic robot tutorial type thing?

Robo said he'd be making a bot making tutorial soon that teahces how to make stuff like flippers, so it'll be more fleshed out than Mouldy's tutorial on how to make a simple rammer. Not sure when that'll be a thing, though. :P However, like Thyrus said, me and Robo would definitely teach you the ropes if you came onto the server at any point.

This series seems as though its maturing. Not bad, decent map design too. Well, I think I might have to eat humble pie.
Well done Bowler. Well done.

I might have a mess around at some point, hmm. I might have time today.

I take it that the Drop Zone is just decorative?

Not really. Robo can put a hovering fridge or something on a trigger to drop when he presses a button.

In that case could Robo put make it be where it's meant to be?

Yeah, I use a winch to drop things on Robots above the drop zone.

He's using the RW:ED arena floor image I think, I don't think it's massively necessary to move it seem as though it doesn't come into play in most of the match.

For those who haven't been keeping up with progress lately, Garry's Wars Season 2 is coming at the end of July, which seems to be when everyone (most people) is available. So, get to building if you want a good bot for the event. Come on the server if you need any help.

My second entry is a multi-bot. You can team with me for that, if you want :)

I'd like a date and time before I start making anything. July's kind of a packed month for me.

Robo and/or Mouldy are meant to sorting out a specific date very soon as people are held up until around the end of July, so I'd say you're looking past the 20th or something like that.

If it's past the 20th I should be able to set aside some time to compete.
