Viper has been quite active (mainly seen him in the King of Karnage Thread) and his DSL showcase has been active too...

I think one big thing is to use multi extenders rather then the baseplates (the small black and red things) they may seem harder to use at first but they dont take long to get the hang of and at 2kg each that will shave at least 16kg off your last bot :-D

Naryar: I know, I know and I know :-D

they are 50% transparent and I liked the blue skin (besides its only a name, not like anything else is realistic in stock lol)

the spelling, they are old screenshots from another copy of RA2 (when the focus was on the GMF) I havent taken the updated ones pictures as it was in Starcore and I wanted the stock UI in the screenshot

and I just thought something that does about 2 times the damage of an iron, should it really weight half the weight ? I was going for a balance but if you think I should half it then ok, dont forget the small one is double the size of an iron.

also the whole going Nary I think could start to really annoy people really fast :P

SSG: I might make them legal in future tournaments but they wont do much good in CC3 as they are designed for stock RA2

the final prize a set of 2 weapons



I personally really like these, they do more damage then iron spikes but to excessive, they also have 1.5x the hitpoints.

I like these so much I have decided to offer all four prizes up for grabs, the winner gets a choice of 2 and the runner up, consolation bracket and awards winners gain 1 prize pick

Cmon, better targets. Something more robotic-ky than medieval. These ARE machines...


the target skins ? well there was a metal one ? I might add some more to the prize but right now I am working on the 3rd and final minor prize

another minor prize up for grabs, 5 jousting targets (1 you already have) they are just skins but put in a styles set up so they are nice and neat, should I make another King Of Karnage they will be usable (no difference to txt files just a different look)



its hard to see from the images but the ghost one is semi transparent

JD: thanks for the support, I am hoping to bypass all the seriousness and people can have fun propelling robots at each other at high rates of speed :P

Madiaba: I think I might stick to the current wall height given even low robots are able to trip over it right now

LRA2: so you are wanting to stick with your current entry ?

Sonny_Resetti: its a points system to eliminate ties

Quote from: JoeBlo;62228
Format

  • Each match will consist of 3 “Jousts” and the winner will be determined on a points based system
  • 3 points if you break your opponents Target off
  • 1 point each if no targets are knocked off
  • 0 points if your target is knocked off (unless you break your opponents off before yours was broken)
  • The player with the most points wins, in the event of a draw after the 3 “Jousts” the total in game points from each match will be added up and the highest total wins.


hope that covers everything :-D

I like Raiden X.


that game can get a bit excessively over powered, getting a heap of purple power-ups basically makes you unstoppable lol

just encase RA2 wasnt enough, http://incredibots.com/

Rex designed the idea as a stunt ramp then made a smaller version for Cassius (rumor is that he left robot was after seeing the arena flipper was basically a copy of his design)

that's a good point (you could have always put a minimum weight for each part) never mind I think Craaig's bot can easily be fixed up

I think a democracy on topics wouldn't be a bad idea, it would stop issues arising contentiously providing people are sensible and mature about it and dont break down into an insult fight

yeah I would say sending the Map folder in the form of a zip or rar would be easier for you rather them making a new arena
