New Robot Wars Arena (In Progress!)

[WhamettNuht]

I felt like doing this one :P


We've travelled to London, Tokyo, now we go to New York





Not much in the way of hazards - Works more as a table top arena :P
Falling into the tracks and going too far up the stairs will eiliminate a bot (Might include the trains as the hazard for the tracks though, question about that later) And the vending machine could fall on a bot I guess :P
Advanced PY'ers, would you know if it would be possible to code a node object to travel from just 2 points (one at one end of the tunnel, and another at the other) and make it possible for it to travel between these points every, say, 20 seconds? Like a train would :P
If so I might work on the trains


Anyway, thoughts? :D Dunno what one to do next but hopefully wont be too far away :P

[Jonzu95]

Awesome! <3

I love you.

[LDogMasher]

 the part where the train crosses and the railing can you make it a ramp or r u keeping it like that

[WhamettNuht]

Thanks Jonzu :D Love ya too :P


And Dunno :P Can easily be changed :P

[LDogMasher]

Will it crash the game?

[WhamettNuht]

At the moment - yes :P

I've only got a theoretical solution - timed Prismatics (Combat Zone spikes, Compressor arena crushers)
The trains could be a model that is pushed back and forth at intervals. Problem is I don't know if trains go in both directions on the same track frequently. (Ofcourse not at the same time)

EDIT: Scratch that, I didn't look at the first part. I don't know how that'd be possible, hmm.

[Thyrus]

can you make objects go in circles?

[LDogMasher]

can you make objects go in circles?

Why would u want to have them iun circles?

Is that good?

[WhamettNuht]

Both possibilites could work.... except I think the circles idea would make the Train go through the walls/platform, as opposed to going in a straight line :P

[Thyrus]

well "going in circles" was more meant like go in a square or rectangle

[WhamettNuht]

Well that would probably be more ideal :P

[LDogMasher]

oh ok

wait is there another wall where the train goes thourgh?

Make the front of the soda machine look like the fruit punch that you can win as a prize in RA2.

Could you do the Volcano arena from AoD (the one with the rocket in the middle) or perhaps the Sao Paulo Scrapyard?

Ah, I didn't notice this until now, actually- it's not too bad, but it's a bit cramped, and in some cases not that accurate. In some areas (In particular with the single stairs, very narrow tunnels, its relatively small size for a double-sided station platform, and general lack of subway-esque paraphernelia like support pillars or seating), it feels more like a basement.
That's not to say it's bad at all though- far from it. I feel that it could be improved visually in some ways to make it look more like a dilapidated station.
 
 
Perhaps this sort of style for the walls and platform might work? I could imagine turnstile gates at one end, and blocked-off stairs at the other.

Prismatics would work to move the train. Just set the floor as the base and the train as the moving part (a parent node would work fine).

[WhamettNuht]

Fair enough then :) Thanks!


And GF yeah I might do a reworked version aha :P

Cool, I'll see if I can work on a floor plan for it- I have some ideas for the layout.

[GoldenFox93]

Thank you again for that! :D


Well, apart from the generator and the smoke exhausts, here is the finished Rooftop Arena! :D

I have one more idea aswell as how I can add more depth, other than that... :D

Also, if anyone would like to submit their own Billboard Images, feel free! I'd really like a Robot Wars based one, and 2 generic ones :) But they must be colourful! :D

Sorry for the bump Wham, but I was able to find this theme for the Japanese Rooftop-

It's the second theme it had in Arenas of Destruction. (The Japanese Techno-sounding one)
