Title: How do you edit motor power through BFE?
Post by: Bobyasianboy on June 17, 2015, 07:06:39 AM: I'm slowly getting to grips with BFE, but no tutorial I've seen tells me how to do this.

Find the .txt in Components (or Components/Styles for some) then use this guide

Post by: cephalopod on June 17, 2015, 07:12:15 AM: Yeah. It won't be tournament legal obviously but if you want to ramp the power up for your own use, that's how to do it. You could always make a copy of the component as a 'Style' so you have it in the drop down menu kinda thing, but for the sake of simplicity copying and editing the name/stats works well.

Post by: Bobyasianboy on June 17, 2015, 07:19:14 AM: Yeah, I just want to use it funsies.I'll attempt that drop down menu since I like everything to look clean(though my bots wouldn't show it). Cheers dude.

And yeah if you need cheat motors you will need the cheat component in your robot folder, and it won't work for other people unless you share the component.
