Lol this is harder than I thought.....  Some types are just not good at lower weight class, but I still need to build them somehow.

And without the NAR AI motor HP change the amount of usable weapon motors become quite limited.

How many people would care if I rebalance TWM and Perm 80's HP to the current NAR AI version?

why not redo them all with your formula's ?

but in the case you touch anything I disapprove of the name :P it will have the same issue NarAI did and everyone will start getting the too confused and try to submit custom robots to DSL tournaments.

so come up with another name should you modify anything so it doesnt sound like just an AI pack.

Lol guess I won't touch anything, and just omit the bots using perm 80/twm.

I don't think people want another re-balance mod, seeing as how NAR AI wasn't that popular after Naryar modded it.

Nope.  I will build all of them for the time being.  I don't want to complicate this anymore than it is for the initial release.

You be surprise to find out that building team is easier to manage than receiving teams, especially when the whole point of the mod is to be small and organized.

thats just because you can pop robots out like there is no tomorrow :P

the worst thing is re-arranging AI'd robots (like CCAI 2) thats annoying...

There are a few bot types that I don't build but also want to include.  I think I will outsource those few teams rather than cloning them.

I'm glad to see that you're planning to keep the parts unmodified.

2 bots left to build, all finished bot AIed.  I choose a background image, aside from a 123AI logo it's pretty much done.

Now I just wait for the 4 teams to come in....

If Nar AI is the Starcore of DSL, this is the infiniteinertia AI.  Gonna be a good (and challenging) pack.

Why must they all be the "this pack, of DSL?" Why can't they just be bot packs, with no specific inspiration?

They can be... I'm just saying that this pack will be similar to infiniteinertia AI in that they're both relatively small, built by primarily one person, and very high difficulty.

please point out what point it was said those inspired the packs..

cant find it? neither can I...

its simply putting things into perspective by choosing something that achieved a similar goal for stock.



Back on topic..

You found a nice picture for the backdrop.. fits the DSL menu's well... kinda looks like it belongs in the space arena mod though :P

Was thinking the same thing.  Well I got time to find a new image seeing as I haven't receive any of the 4 teams yet.

For some reason I was expecting a sea background with some whales. :P

The background is cool as it is though ;)
