Yes its a tournament but im very confident i can do this. But just be on the safe side i will have a simpler tournament.
Destructo Bots is a 8 bot tournament that has newbies(and noobs) vs pros, Double elimination.
It will have a starter round where theres gonna be the newbs(or noobs) vs the pros.(as in,Newb/noob1 vs pro1,newb 2 vs pro2,etc...)
Then the losers are in a rumble,if your out first in that i will put you 8th,second out for 7th,6th if last one out. 5th to winner.
In the winners are in the rumble.first out is 4th,second out is 3rd,last out is 2nd and winner is 1st.
I will then put them in a double elimination format bracket.
Now for the rules.
Stock HW.
BBEANS V2.
All bots must show CONTROLLED movement.
If theres a havok i shall restart. If it happens again, i will ignore it unless the OTHER bot is affected which in that case i will dq the havoker.
No amm,no BFE,no glitches apart from stacking,chaining,effe,all usualy used in bot building,but ill dq the rupt glitch,the project trinity glitch,nasty pickle.(i cant put everyone so let me know i theres an uncovered one!)
AI can be done by the entrants,and id reccomend that because im a rookie at it,but if you cant im fine with that.
If a bot had a OBVIOUS error that cost it the match let me know and ill look into it.
Multibots are ok.
Am i missing anything?

This idea was discussed ages ago..
too much work.. I mean look at the other lists around here.. a lot stay outdated.. and this is more involved then them..
It would be nice if it could be implemented into the game itself but thats just not going to happen in the near future

People like Joe, Sage and Scrap do their best to find new things.
Its the only thing I do in this game after I figured out I just couldnt keep up with the tournament competition level.. :P

Wow biggest shock to see Death Port not in.. I mean with all the popup spam dominance you would have thought the first Popup would get a place in the hall of fame.. :P

Actually, that was 5$ if it didn't win.
Exactly.. you bet the forum $5 that it wouldnt win.. and it did win, so you lost your bet.. So you owe all 22 voters $0.22 each.. Thats what you get for being such a high roller with your hundreds of cents.... You seem to be forgetting Click. =] Joe has won 10 BOTM's, Click has won 9.
:O And here I was worried about you.. I didnt know Click was so close (again).. when did this happen? I count mine personally as 9.5 since I only came up with the idea and did the skinning/ splash on Siege Tank, 123 did the building.. Same would go for sage with Madiaba's team up I guess But Blitzkreig earns us each a full victory.. we both put in loads of effort each into that one..

Things may have been blown out of proportion a bit so I want to set some things right so people dont think im pulling a GF93 or something..
1) I hold nothing against J for his entry, its not his fault it won, even in the splash he had no faith in it (maybe everyone wanted 5 dollars?) So please dont take anything the wrong way I had no intent of offense
2) My comments weren't "sour grapes" over loosing.. I am happy to be beaten by a better robot any month.. I accepted a loss to NFX (yes I, like many.. knew what one was his from the start) from when I first saw the robots.. At least I can be thankful it kept my 3 Straight BOTM record stayed in tact..
3) My reactions mainly were caused over being given so much RA2:Backlash over the years for the high quality of presentation ("eye candy") helping me over the finish-line on numerous occasions.. yet I saw many of those people all too happy to vote for a robot that had no skill or real effort put into it... It was basically a metaphorical "middle finger"..
tl:dr
Sorry for my involvement in the proclaimed "bitching" hope you didnt find it offensive J..
But dare make a mockery of my lovely BOTM competition again and I will be forced to wag my finger at you.... then you'll be sorry

Airforce.py"Spread your wings and fly.." Now you can AI your own flyers the same way as they acted in the Epic Flyer challenge.. -AIing make Easy - Shortest Bindings you will ever need -Easy to use Variables -New Control Names!!! :O --------------------------------------- https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/Airforce.rarExample Bindings : list.append(("Flyer","Airforce",{'nose':math.pi,'Spinup':10, 'range':99, 'weapons':(1,)})) --------------------------------------- You will need the controls..Spin (Analog control so the AI will shut it off after liftoff) Launch (Button or Analog that is wired to fire the pistons) How the Variable works?'Spinup' in the Binding line deturmines the length of time the robot will Spin before using the Launch control (then shutting off Spin) Re-Launch actionsOnce the flyer looses its Trinity effect and lands on the ground it will sit stationary (keeps firing pistons though which potentially assist in self righting) If its counted out it will then stop and revert back to the start of the match phase and spin / launch to break count.. Obviously if its butter side down it wont fly.. --------------------------------------- Enjoy

It could work, it could work.. look I even expertly combined the 2 splashes..  If I had voted for 5 they would have been tied...
you and 22 other people could have.. what about it? (actually if all 22 did it I would have won)

Ignored: In a rumble match, make all robots leave you alone for 1 minute
I cant believe you just passed up the opportunity to make an achievement called "Forever Alone"

Is the poll ended for anyone else?
It says its still going on my computer??
1078
« on: August 01, 2011, 06:06:57 AM »
"still kinda" would be the answer
Though im claiming it as either "Pink Loading" if its just a building strategy
Or "Firecracker" (after the robot) if its a glitch / similar..
I need to do some more research though..

yeah... try reading the.. ya know.. whole thread?.. I mean even the top of this page has pics.. :P

R.I.P BOTM. You were fun while you lasted. Oh god no!
^ Summed it up the best ^ I might leave for the duration of the month now so I dont have to see it on the home page.. Lol I thought 5 was WB because he had a bot with a similar name and bot type in his showcase.
Firecracker is actually the oldest robot in this months competition.. https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,836.msg75743.html#msg75743https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,836.msg85767.html#msg85767I came across the "pink loading" effect back in 2009.. then basically I pushed it to the back of the bot lab and forgot about it.. I remembered it this past month so I decided to finally give it a shot at competition... all my reactions and investigations were legit, I knew nothing about how it works or anything.. I just took a guess at amount of batteries outputting at one time as its similar to ants in DSL.. So a potential building strategy 2 years in the making was beaten by a robot that vaguely resembles a giraffe... yay  (all that said I still think NFX should have won.. even though I dont want his mitts on my records :P)
