Title: Multiple bots at once?
Post by: The Marionette Man on October 12, 2012, 06:26:22 PM
Hey guys!

Once again, i've got a question.

I remember awhile back seeing a youtube video about what seemed to be a bunch of tiny cubes swarm 1 robot. I know they weren't just a bunch of debris, because each one was actually moving and fighting... as if it was a tiny robot!

Please don't call me crazy. I could've sworn I saw it, but i've failed to retrace it.

What I want to know is was it some sort of mod? If so, how would this work? How could I do this?


Thanks!

I'm pretty sure these were only components attached to nowhere, and that it was only one robot.  You are talking about a swarm of small blue cubes made by Joeblo, right ?

yeah the one by joe was just static components that looked like the chassis attached by the dsl smartzones or the madiaba smartzones iirc

you can actually make "true" multibots if you have alot of BFE knowledge (something like this (https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Exchange/MW/Clickbeetle_Ant%20Army.bot))

Yeah! That's probably what it was. He did a good job. Have you a video link?

Woah...what the heck am I looking at? Is it like a .bot file in notepad?

Yep, I made a robot then cloned it as a component and put 20 of them around the original as decoys.


My Youtube channel went down so that would be why you cant find the video.


A similar concept is possible with Clicks BBEANS AI pack, he made SFTW into a component..
