Cool.

Actually, without an official SHW class, I think just raising the weight limit would be a bad thing. Why? There's nothing that tells you when you've hit the normal HW weight limit. HW would then become an unofficial class like AW and BW, while SHW would be the new HW.

Also, imagine building a bot, thinking you've got it all figured out, then you finish it and think, "All right this thing is pure WIN, I'm gonna go own some NAR AI..." and then you happen to glance at the weight as you're taking the preview picture... it's 898.7 kgs instead of the 798.7 you thought it was.

However this other stuff you're doing with the exe looks very promising. I would be all for a max sphere-less bot lab.

Breaking the rule of seven is like dividing by zero. You just don't go there. And if you do it, you're either Jesus, Chuck Norris, or any combination thereof.

By god Serge, you're 1337 H4xx0r :O

Being able to change the weight limits is just plain awesome. This could lead to more realistic weight classes that are based on their real life equivalents.

Removing the max sphere would be better than extending the rule of 7 IMO. Although, both would be impressive feats.

Since he already figured out how to change the info bar text, why not have the game let you know down there what weight limit you just passed?

That's actually a very good idea! Thanks!

Doesn't pause/break do that? ^^^

Yup on my keyboard its waaaaay in the top left and it looks like this:

Pause
Break

DuckRA2 · « **Reply #48 on:** June 14, 2010, 10:49:45 AM »

For me it is way in the top right. But it may vary from computers. It is sitting next to Ins/Prt Sc, Del/SysRq, and scroll lock.

Good luck with the hacking Serge!

Thyrus · « **Reply #51 on:** June 14, 2010, 11:01:07 AM »

yeah, I thought it`s kinda spamm to ask for something that already exists.

DuckRA2 · « **Reply #52 on:** June 14, 2010, 11:06:34 AM »

now there is more confusion

Thyrus · « **Reply #53 on:** June 14, 2010, 11:07:33 AM »

well true. I`m sorry for that.
I tested the thing with the pause button but that doesn`t work.

Thats true, It has happened to me that i want to build a LW or MW & I end up making a HW because tehre was nothing to stop me from adding stuff :S

Maybe make like a SHW class with the Nametag & Pic... But I would like to still use Anti-Ballasts, They dont annoy anyway :P

Somebody · « **Reply #57 on:** June 15, 2010, 11:13:33 AM »

They kind of annoy me because you have to guess when you are hitting the 1200 or 5000 weight limit. Next thing I know I take off the antiballast and tada!! My dream ultimate pwnzorz UHW weighs 5100 kilos.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #58 on:** June 15, 2010, 11:52:11 AM »

Use the -4200 kg ones then.

Somebody · « **Reply #59 on:** June 15, 2010, 01:05:22 PM »

Problem with those is though... If your chassis weighs a certain amount, you have to built to exactly that much below the weight limit for it to still be 5000 kilos. If you have a 150 kilo chassis, and then you add the -4200 one and build to the normal weight limit, it weighs 5150 kilos... I think...
