that was a fun one, what a play by playzooki to use the forbidden pop-down technique and win. I like these captains, it's pure poetry/rigged that it was the bots with the most "light" and "dark" skins

Interesting component choices, but I'd say you did a pretty good job. Wedges can certainly work but I wouldn't say there's a major advantage to be had. If you're up for it, you could get a lot of free weight by building it all off one SnapperII since HS are kept stable and protected by their spinners so they can afford to have tiny chassis. I will mention that 9 maces is a bit underweaponed for a MW.

I like redace, badnik, and dreamcast's bots. my fanfiction draft based on skins are team light: me, shield, thrack, playzooki, badnik, demon (3 popups, vs, juggler, hs) and team dark: f1, redace, AS, silverfish, kurt, dreamcast (2 hs, popup, vs, undercutter, stilt)

One time when Trov used his wacky timeline reset powers, many old and new users on the RA2 Wiki were combined into one. Post your GTM stand/alter ego, or a link to your contributions if you can't figure out who it is. Not everyone gets one, only the worthy will thrive. I'm secretly Naryar so my power level is pretty high (none of these changes are mine, I've never even made a wiki account): https://wiki.gametechmods.com/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/Fracture

Thanks to the new Downloads pages and Craaig's tutorial index, I can remove a lot of stuff already covered in his post, leaving this to serve as a list of the less accessible links instead of having to be three things at once. It now has component freedom and apanx's AI repository.
I can add some model Ironforge showcases to the list at the bottom if anyone has suggestions (otherwise I'll just dig up the ranks from the GTM Awards). Maybe they would be better served in their own topic at this point?

Why no entries?
Maybe bc rn there aren't any stock bigshots that are entering this tourney?
well i'm entering so that can't be it
Send your bot then, the current draft prospects are all bench players

Use this: This is something that's been on my to-do list ever since apanx made his melty brain AI, and I've finally got around to finishing it. It's an AI that measures the RPM of its spinning weapons, and won't move until they're spinning at a certain speed.
Get it here: https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/SpinupOmni2.zip
Directions for using it are at the top of the .py file. One thing you should know that I might as well repost here: RA2 can't measure times less than 1/30 second, even if you set the tick interval lower. So the RPM calculator is fairly limited. It can't measure anything faster than 1500 RPM, and it gets less accurate the faster a bot's weapons are spinning. It still works pretty well for most bots, though--it turns out that spinners in RA2 are generally pretty slow, even in DSL.
One cool feature is if you put 'DisplayRPM':1 in the Bindings, you get an in-game display that shows the current RPM of the bot's spinner, the maximum RPM, and the average RPM over the whole match. If you've ever wanted to know how fast Diarrhea Of A Madman's weapon spins, now you can find out.
Corollary: the 1/30 second limit also means that apanx's FBS.py uses an unnecessarily low tick interval. It should be able to be increased from 0.001 to 0.0333 with no loss in performance, thus decreasing lag.

Are you talking about rotating the irons to fit the weapon rack? First off, that should definitely be 2 purples. If you place them between the drive or use a snapper setup, you should be able to get DSA which is very valuable for a small rammer. As for calling it the new Scrap Box, I would like to see a more box-y weapon rack for that

I'm convinced Dreamcast is just an advanced AI programmed by Trov to distract from his inactivity
Really happy to see 4 other people voted for #2, those bear claws are too clever

Right, didn't realize that the black isn't wide enough to completely fit 2 anchors (even if they're placed diagonally across?).
If you replace the T as-is with 2 extenders it'll break RO7, I think. You would have to stack the anchor so that it becomes symmetric with only 1 extender as the T.

Not sure what your current plan is to save the 1 kg (replacing the T with round extenders?), but you might be able to use 2 anchors and get rid of the T that way

I just wanted to build it with 3 wedges, it looks rad and probably has some obscure advantage that's pretty ****in neat, how does it fare against HS?
It's alright, seems to still take a bunch of damage vs. the ones that use irons, maybe because the spinners don't bounce off of that chassis shape as much (guess that's everyone's cue to enter their iron HS into the tourney)

Rebuilding the chassis gives you DSA back. You've done a good job planning the components out and trimming the chassis, but you should rotate the snappers and weapon Z-teks 180 degrees and make it wider in general, to help with stability. Also pushing the drive back with an extender between the anchor and T-connector can have the same benefits and may allow you to shorten the extenders holding the motors.
