Does the hovercraft engine actually work?  I have it wired, but the bot won't move at all.  It just floats in place.

It actually would still be DSL-Standard if it poked through the shield.  The reason for this is that, reasonably, you could cut out a small hole in the shield for the spikes to go through, and therefore doing so would not horribly violate physics.

Also, you don't need back-facing weaponry.  It might seems useful when you drive the bot, but any AI driving the bot will never use it.

I'll give you a hint: It starts with a "P", has an "O" and an "N" in it, and ends with an "S" :^)

These are the people who still need to send bot types for their rivals to build:

Sircreepalot2
Silverfish
Mystic2000
kaiser112183

I'll send out PMs sometime, I guess.  In the meantime, I gotta build a Stock LW with no wedge.

While of course, now I see the mistake, generally on this site "wedge" means "burst motor plus extenders plus small wedge" or the equivalent in whatever mod you're playing.

Exhibit B: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=702.msg671820#msg671820
Exhibit C: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=4978.msg687969#msg687969

Overall, I think it was a reasonable mistake to make.  However, I should have recognized the potential for miscommunication and clarified the rules before making the thread.

I don't think Geice is at fault here, as my bot did fit a particular interpretation of the rules as given.  RedAce and I should have done a better job clarifying the rules though.

At least Myre Jynk did pretty good in its debut match.

Had to make a new bot for me vs RedAce since I misinterpreted "no wedges":



I think this one's a lot better.

Okay, well then I'll have to actually build something for this.  I might be a bit.  I was gonna use Glenn, but he keeps getting hung up on the arena wall and I donno why.

If you still don't mind me skinning the Ring Arena to look like a wrestling ring, then I can still do it for ya.

Rival Rumble's gonna be in the Ring Arena so, if you want to reskin it, I'd love to have it.

Gauche Suede has accepted Bobyasianboy's challenge, and with that, we have all 8 sets of rivals!

1. TheRedBlur vs DeadGenocide
2. Squirrel_Monkey vs RedAce
3. Kossokei vs Naryar
4. 090901 vs ty4er
5. Sircreepalot2 vs Silverfish
6. Geice vs Mr. AS
7. Bobyasianboy vs Gauche Suede
8. Mystic2000 vs kaiser112183

Now we're onto the bot type assignment phase!  PM me the bot type your rival has to build before the deadline, March 27th!

These are the jokers who don't have a rival yet:

Gauche Suede
kaiser112183
Bobyasianboy
Mystic2000

If none of y'all pick anyone by the signups deadline, I'll just randomize the pairings.  Deadline in two days.  Then we'll move on to bot-type-assignment!

Sure.  Should we have a "no wedges rule" or is that not needed for a LW challenge?
I had a MW match with a "no multibot" rule; I don't care much whether rules are needed or not.  Let's do it!


I think JoeBlo made one for Backlash way back when, but it was never released.  I can skin the Ring Arena to look like one for this challenge if you don't mind.
That sounds incredible.


I can host when you guys decide on a ruling + your challenge with eco
Thanks dude!

Anyone down to face me in anything at all?  I'll let you decide what the restrictions are.

Up for some Stock LW in the Ring Arena?

Speaking of rings, has anyone made a wrestling ring arena?

Im a bit shakey on my dsl skills so if anyone wants to do duel so I can get my dsl skills up to snuff that would be awesome =)

Up for a LW match?  Your choice of arena.
