The Types Allowed Are
VS
HS (If You Can)
Piston Rammer

Edit: Robots Have To Fit Into This Box To Be Entered

-
who will control them?
-
Me, but with different controlls for the bots, dont worry, i will be unbiased.
-
Maybe I'll make something later, havent made anything in IR2 in a while.
-
I hope to enter. :D
-
I will get hold of incredirobotwars. Eventually.
-
Ok, ive made the arena, its currently MK I, And Yes, It Will Have A Flipper.
-
Make a box which is the size limit and post it here. Also, wouldn't it work better if all bots "self" drove (i.e. are auto-on movements)
-
Coll, sounds good, ill do that now.
-
How do I make a bot?
-
Tutorials.
-
How do we send them to you? Do we take a screengrab and you replicate it?
-
No, send me a link in a pm and i tke it and save it, so when you ave check all boxes.
-
With that arena, whoever starts on the left will automatically lose XD I reckon you should lose the flipper and put a pit at either end :P
-
Hold up, there's a problem with this - unless one of us is an Incredibots supporter (so we can use the flip horizontal/vertical tool) .. the host would be a fair choice for being one.. then we'd have to build two bots, to compete in either corner. Unless the bot in question is invertible or has the same weapon both ways.
I could probably send one of my fully autonomous bots.
-
Go for it.
-
I take it we're meant to have two versions for either corner then.
-
Yes, And I Like your entry.
-
Whaaa? You told me nothing about each corner XD ugh, lol.
-
Whaaa? You told me nothing about each corner XD ugh, lol.
Heh, he didn't. But it's the only way it makes sense without access to the Horizontal Flip feature! Else we'd have bots designed for the corner they are not positioned in.
Unlikely for a flipper to use it's square back all of the time, eh?
-
Someone could make a robot like the minibot Gemini... :P
-
Meh, now I have to go make the reverse of my bot.
-
So.. what's going on with this?
-
I'm working on an entry, but it may take a while.
-
I'm working on an entry, but it may take a while.
Yeah, I STILL need to mirror mine
-
surely it can't be too hard.
-
A decent mirroring requires precision. Or subscription for the appropriate tool.
-
IRW, i has your entry.
-
Need other side, though. Also, I was wondering about the legality of tyres in this competition.

Need other side, though. Also, I was wondering about the legality of tyres in this competition.
Your special kind or fixed-joint hubcaps? Either should be fine, though I don't see why you need to look beyond solid tires.
-
Hey! Those tyres provide more traction, as well as softening landings, causing less damage to intricate or fragile systems that could be knocked about in the landing, so there is plenty of reasons to look beyond solid tyres, and onto my design.
-
Aaah, sorry. I just remember on my first run of your car tech demo I managed to rip off part of the tread doing one of the jumps. You might be needlessly giving opponents a weak spot, though admittedly it could be difficult getting to them.
-
Doesn't matter if tyres a low-profile, because when they shred they would end up hiding behind the hubcap. Also, the tyres are based on real-life 'unpuncturable tyres', which don't rely on air pressure. However, that does not mean 'unshreddable'. I should probably have changed the size of the jumps, though.
-
:D IRW's back
-
FINALLY! Someboby noticed. Thanks, Badnik. Oh, and new Incredirobotwars stuff should come out soon.
-
Any mobility is legal.
-
YAY!
Now going to work on other side of entry.
-
*Finds Red's bot using the Search function and builds a bot to counteract it*
-
*Does not do anything. Feels secure with entry.*
Also, was there any size issues?
-
*Finds Red's bot using the Search function and builds a bot to counteract it*
Damn you :P I shouldn't of used my username...
I've actually got an effective VS killer in my (PRIVATE) saves. Can take out stuff about... 3 or 4 times it's own size. It'd be very easy to replicate it for this. :gawe: And change my entry, perhaps.
-
*Considers changing strength of piston*
-
*Finds Red's bot using the Search function and builds a bot to counteract it*
If you do that you willl have an awesome bot, but you will be disqualified for spying on the competition.
-
I'd usually let it slide (because I'm lenient really) but it's not taking inspiration, it's individual targeting.
-
Yeah. I mean, it's not as if he could search 'GTM members'. He just chose you (of all people).
-
Kinda valid considering I'm one of the big boys in Incredibots bot design around here. (Atleast I was a while ago)
-
I see the two of them have posted right above me.
-
(To Red) Lucky my incredibots name isn't my username, eh?
-
G.K: :gawe:
(To Red) Lucky my incredibots name isn't my username, eh?
Hah :p I'll be sure to get a secret account for tournies~
-
...are interchangeable weapons legal?
-
yus...
as long as there not a giant shell with a lawnmower blade o...
-
What about firing weapons?
-
Heres my walking robot.

-
Um...that sort of thing should be posted on the incredibots thread, and it's nothing new.
-
Is TX still taking entries? I made a VS...
-
Well TX said he was "leaving" so I'm doubting it. Though I would love to see the VS.
-
Hot-diggity-darn.
-
Locate all of the robots, we can get a new host :gawe:
-
I made one but it`s not very good I guess
-
I have an arena...
-
Let's see it :) Maybe we could get a bunch of arenas that follow TX's size guide and vote.
-
You already have. It's in my Sig.
-
did a simple 4bar lifter to test the physics- http://incredibots2.com/?robotID=MikeNCR4cb5e68d8e9f84.93482155 (http://incredibots2.com/?robotID=MikeNCR4cb5e68d8e9f84.93482155)
-
^That should go in the normal incredibots thread.^
-
Thanks, SM, you saved me a post...oh...
-
Ah, but is it "regulation size", IRW? ;)
-
Since I'm the only guy who has a copy of the arena, I'll take over.
-
That also works. You got .. no wait, you don't need suitable recording software. Replays would work fine.
-
My arena is regulation size for IRWars...as well you know. Oh, and check the incredibots thread for my updates.
-
You're not getting my point :O It can be regulation size for IRW, but what about this, IRC? Is it suitable according to the maximum dimensions rectangle?
-
I never used that in the first place...so I may be at a tactical disadvantage that won't matter.
