Comission for a New Arena??
« on: January 30, 2021, 09:10:34 AM »
Hello GTM!

I'll keep this post short and sweet (hopefully). I want to upgrade the arena I use for tournaments. I currently use a skinned combat zone, but I'd love for it to, at the very least, have 2 pulverizers. At max, 2 pulverizers and 2 OOTA corners.

I don't even know if it's possible to mod an arena like that, but if it is - and someone here knows how to do it - I'd be willing to offer some Benjamins for the task :beer:

That doesn't have any OOTA zones

As for commissioning and arena, you're probably gonna have a hard time. There's only a few people around who actually have the skillset to make an arena, and from what I understand it's a hell of a lot of work. Your best bet would probably be something like the starcore arena, which has a pair of pulverizers and 2 arena flippers in the centre (similar to the octagon arena) but that has OOTA zones the whole way around. The arena's fairly big though and the walls are reasonably high so with the stock bots you're using OOTAs shouldn't be too common. Here's a screenshot of it:

If that's what I'm thinking it is, it's got the damn hellraisers right? Was hoping to find a solution without those bastards lol

Hey Roboteer, I know you  ;)
This arena looks interesting for sure, would have to download and test it, and it would DEFINITELY need skinning. But I appreciate the reply  :beer:

Its not a complete custom solution your looking for, however with some quick python touch ups in the Battlebox.py you can disable the Hell Raisers (or any other hazard for that matter)

Ive attached an alternative .py for the battlebox (untested) with some simple notepad++ edits

You can place "#" infront of any lines of code you want the game to ignore
