Ok so it has been brought to my attention now that there was no limit set on weapons or bursts. In order to prevent all hell from breaking loose I propose a solution:

If bots are efficiently made then given the size of the smartzone, their weight should end up being somewhere around an underweight SHW.
with this in mind I believe the burst limit should be set at 2 betas and 3 for the other types.
As for typhoon teeth, the limit would be set at 4lg 6sm for verts and 6lg 8sm for horizontals.
Other weapon types i would judge on a case to case basis but just dont be ridiculous.

What do you guys think?

Am I missing something here?
The tournament is called Micro Machines, why build superheavyweoghts for this


Also isnt an underweight SHW just a heavyweight?

its micro machines because of the build size. there is no weight limit so if built compactly the weight can almost reach SHW

Also isnt an underweight SHW just a heavyweight?
no. if your bot its 800.1kg then it is no longer considered a HW its now considered an extremely underweight SHW

I have two questions:
1) Does the weapon have to be fully within the smartzone, or is it allowed to stick out slightly?
2) What and where are the Flat Motors?

1) Does the weapon have to be fully within the smartzone, or is it allowed to stick out slightly?
2) What and where are the Flat Motors?

1) Yes, nothing can be sticking out of the smartzone. But there is an exception: (i dont really know how to explain this accurately with words so i included some pics)

lets say ive got my robot here that i want to enter into micro machines
 
micro1.png


it originally had a mech disc but it was rejected because no matter how it spun, it was always outside the smartzone
 
micro2.png


however, when i put the bar on it, it was accepted because when its spun 90 degrees it fits inside

2) They are banned in this tournament but ill explain them to you anyways. Flatmotors are super small and powerful weapon motors that are typically used on drums. You can access them via the cheatbot2 menu by naming your robot cheatbot2 and pressing enter. Then scroll all the way over on the motors tab and voila.

Yea, the initial reasoning behind 32 was because I didn't want a situation like my last tournament where multiple people all wanted the last slot. The more I look at it though, the less I see this even reaching 16 individual entrants.

I'm going to give it until Saturday. If this can't reach 16 entrants by then I'll change it down to 16 entries max and open it up for people to send seconds.
