Beta release 2 uploaded.

Bugfix is intended for people who downloaded nar ai 3.0 beta release 1, if you didn't then download the second release.

Naryar · « **Reply #1321 on:** May 17, 2013, 05:46:34 AM »

Changelog :
-dual etek and 55kg hammer have not been updated, balancing them
-Double icepick, gothic axe, fireman's axe boosted to the level of 1-dimensional normals (like single pick, pole spike, etc)

To do:
-Boost HP of all DSL bars, considering they are also 1-dimension normals.
-Balance all armors
-Balance extenders
-Balance the Colson wheels in styles

Now I have a few questions for you guys.

-I intend to put DSL2 components in there, what would you like to see first ? Replica teeth, replica discs, old armor components ?
-I am not sure if I should boost weapons with single-sided 1-dimensional normals (such as : axe blade, pole spike, single icepick, tiny typhoon tooth) even more than double-sided 1-dimensional weapons.

We should have bots with a full release first, before adding DSL2 parts into it.

Hard to say anything is balance without any sort of bots to judge by.

Naryar · « **Reply #1323 on:** May 17, 2013, 12:21:03 PM »

Good point. Maybe we should start by testing a small metagame.

I need to fix armor components first, then I think it will be just good and you guys will be able to send bots.

Remember, build them in narai3 and NOT DSL3 else we are gonna get numerous different weight issues.

The last piston burst is listed to consume 70 amp but still has elecMaxInOutRate = -1316

And yeah, chassis armor is still the "super bad" DSL3 version.

Naryar · « **Reply #1325 on:** May 17, 2013, 02:16:23 PM »

Fixed.

Naryar · « **Reply #1326 on:** May 20, 2013, 02:29:34 PM »

ok, the beta 3 release will be out in a few hours.

Here's what will be changed from the last version :

Dual Etek stats changed from DSL3 ones to narai3 ones
Etek fixed
Double icepick, all dsl bars, gothic axe, fire axe changed to 120000 efficiency
55kg hammer stats changed from DSL3 ones to narai3 ones
Poly, Tit, Steel, skirts balanced
Large R/P burst fixed
Drive etek and 2mag maxspeed fixed - no more overpowered weapon motor
armor balance : Steel and Poly armor components balance, angled panels balanced, straight panels balanced, Snowplows balanced, Skis balanced
Wheel HP fix - less grippy ones get more HP, more grippy ones get less
Colson wheel fix
Chassis armor increased

then we will be fine for fixes I do believe, although there will be some other major fixes (mostly the extenders) you will be able to build and send bots without problems.

The third release is being uploaded.

OK, the second vdma does not work, mostly because it has only one power value.

This has been changed, but if you don't want to wait for the bugfix you just need to change in vdmamed.txt (in styles) the power line

power = 260

to

power = 260 260

I need to check out the game for other such errors. Please report them if a component is working anormally.

also nar ai 3 is NOT compatible weightwise with DSL3. To avoid headaches for both you and me, if you want to build for nar ai, download it and use it.

what happened to aluminum skirts?

Naryar · « **Reply #1331 on:** May 24, 2013, 05:35:37 AM »

They got axed by DSL3.

Naryar · « **Reply #1332 on:** May 24, 2013, 02:20:53 PM »

Spike strips have been fixed.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1333 on:** May 25, 2013, 10:15:15 AM »

Any chance of changing Beta (Geared) into type servo instead of spin, so it doesn't havok or crash once every 2 seconds?

Naryar · « **Reply #1334 on:** May 27, 2013, 12:02:55 PM »

OK, here's the advancement towards next release.

DONE

armor descriptions changed
DSL1 wheel: HP boost
vdma medium fixed
Double-sided teeth fixed
Beta burst fix
Hexplates changed
Perm M changed

TODO

Extender balance - remove fracture, maybe standard HP/weight for all
Battery fix - ant batt needs to suck less, as well as PC545 and PC625
several batteries has new attachment points
new multiextender

Naryar · « **Reply #1335 on:** May 27, 2013, 12:31:31 PM »

New : There will also be a square multiextender in the next release.

Naryar · « **Reply #1336 on:** May 31, 2013, 09:07:54 AM »

Current changelog:

armor descriptions changed for more badass
DSL1 wheel: HP boost
Beta burst maxspeed decreased
Hexplates changed
Multiextender is back
Perm M to a Perm 80's stats
Removed excessive fracture on extenders
Fixed wrong concussion value on 25kg hammer
Fixed batteries - ant batt sucks less, boosted battlepack, PC545 and PC625

I am nearly finished with the release, although I just want to add more ap's to several batteries and possibly change the weights of the DSL 3 mini-anglers.

My GMF compiler isn't working however.

Naryar · « **Reply #1337 on:** June 04, 2013, 02:41:55 PM »

Upload is in progress. 123 multiextender has been included - it's like DSL2 multi but square, hence less bother.

Didn't manage to mod the batteries though.

Hello Naryar,
Should I be using v3.0 alpha or v2.7?
