Okay, you know, on Robot wars: Arenas of Destruction, some of the AI bots had their own custom anouncements, (Double O, Robotica...) I was wondering if somone could do this with RA2? it's just a suggestion though.

That would be good, better ask Mad, but i doubt it, (I know, i dont mod that well, but i know a bit!) As you would need some kind of coding so that it recognises the bot and it recognises the bot when its in the arena, right?

I'm sure there is a way to do it. There are actually a lot more voices than are actually used in the game. There are things like burping, "bot pancakes anyone", etc. I would assume that you could just add your own sounds to the folder these are found in, But I'm not sure how to make these work in an arena introduction. ClickBeetle probably knows because he used this in one of his arenas.

Sounds can be incorporated into the AI.pys. Some actuations criteria would/could be:
-Smart Zone
-Range
-Life level of bot (self or enemy)
-Large hit
-Location XYZ
-Time(r)
(to name a few...).

In fact you can even do it with User bots.
So NP.

S-32/Gig, you'll have to expound on what exactly you're looking for...
Gig, I got your PM, I'll get back today or tomorrow.
