i actually second not using combat arena, just so that HS actually can get killed and not just spikeball for 3 mins, i wonder how the old robot wars arena would work for this (since it was high enough walls that flippers/popups can't OOTA stupidly easy but probably will make a spikeballing HS OOTA itself)

122
okay i'll enter to fill in the blanks then

I THEREFORE DECLARE ARTEMIS SIGNUPS ARE OPEN!!!

HW 1V1 single elimination
IRL building
Arena will be the Containement Cube
8 spots max
BFE and RA2CF will be allowed within reason
flatmotors and overkill servo being the only cheatbot2 components allowed
extenderbots will be banned to limit crashes and havok issues
controls will be either WASD or arrow keys
before the comp starts i will do a quick showcase of all the entrants to show that i haven't interfered with the bots in any way
havoks that cause a robot to glitch into the arena, or teleport OOTA will lead to a restart, as well as game crashes
NO WEAPON SPAM OR BURST SPAMMING FLIPPERS

COMP IS THE SATURDAY 28TH AT 8PM GMT, SIGNUPS END ON 27TH, SEND ENTRIES VIA DISCORD OR GTM (DISCORD IS PREFERED)

123
okay, one last question before i open signups/registeration for good, should i enter a bot myself ? asking cause obviously there is always the whole "host rigging" possibilty, not saying that i will obviously but i can imagine salty players throwing accusations of that and quickly having a massive argument ****ing the entire comp up

124
oh, yeah guess i can allow that

125
what even is Overkill motor again ? just a servo with a REALLY HUGE amount of force ?

126
wow i'm awful at this, i keep abandoning this ****ing thread lol, so... i got a date and hour tho, which is 28th April and 8PM GMT, which leaves people 2 weeks to **** around with the new possibilites online play gives, would this date and hour be okay or ?

i'll root for Silver Knight cause it looks like a cross from the RW Iron Man and Obwalden Overlord

also you're tempting me to make my own lego bots comp and post it on GTM, should i ?

129
house bots can **** off, they're BS magnets and i don't wanna deal with that
multiple hosts would make the organisation needlessly annoying, and parsec is pretty low lag anyway

130
10 days since last update of mine.... well fantastic, i'm thinking of 14th April for the comp date, still need to see for an hour cause lel timezones

131
extenderbots are basically bots using a pixel-sized chassis and making the entire bot out of an extender frame, while this allows for a lot more shape options, it also makes for bots that tend to make the game crash or cause havok problems much more frequently than a "normal" chassis bot

132
one thing we do on the Garry's Wars server when someone has a multibot is the builder drives one part and whoever wants to drives the other one, we could do that

133
good point, how about can only pin for 10 secs, and you can't pin again for 30 seconds ?

i'm also thinking to allow multibots since they're actually not gonna friendly fire every 2 seconds with human controls

134
i mean a human player doesn't have to completely tear apart an extender bot like AI and can leave it to be counted down when it's drive got ripped off

and i really don't wanna have to restart 20 times each match an extender bot is in

135
well there's still the issue of them tending to cause havok/crashes quite easily

136
well, apparently changing the style to !!!IRL!!! was the key to get people interested, might want to add an anti-salt rule

anyway, i need to start thinking of a date for the comp, a Saturday is where it's gonna happen, however i wanna leave a couple weeks for people to **** around with the new options given by human control, hour will also be an issue cause lol time zones

Online Battles / Re: Artemis Robot Challenge - Parsec HW competition
« on: March 13, 2018, 02:27:25 AM »
eh fair point, online really changes the way the meta works, i've seen it when Thadzingo 3, which in normal AI tournaments is pretty broken, got ****ing humiliated in a Parsec match because it's opponent was just outdriving and outsped it at every turn, i guess i'll switch to IRL, will just ban extender bots for the sake of havok/crashes

yeah but IRL also leads to "IT'S TOO OP" or "IT'S NOT REALISTIC ENOUGH" or "IT'S GOT 4 TYPHOON TEETH IT'S TRYHARD WEAPON SPAM", and other salt and garbage like that i'd like to avoid having to deal with, extenderbots if they're really too much of a pain regarding lag and crashes/havok i could just ban them outright anyway

Online Battles / Artemis Robot Challenge - Parsec IRL HW competition
« on: March 12, 2018, 12:38:28 PM »
so, i've noticed, that the parsec hype basically died completely after the 2 weeks following it's discovery, this is rather saddening, and i'd like to "fix" that, with the first official parsec comp (i know, technically you could argue that RA Invitational is the first, but it seems dead and stuck in limbo)

HW 1V1 single elimination
IRL building
Arena will be the Containement Cube
8 spots max (starting small)
BFE and RA2CF will be allowed within reason
flatmotors and overkill servo being the only cheatbot2 components allowed
extenderbots will be banned to limit crashes and havok issues
controls will be either WASD or arrow keys
before the comp starts i will do a quick showcase of all the entrants to show that i haven't interfered with the bots in any way
havoks that cause a robot to glitch into the arena, or teleport OOTA will lead to a restart, as well as game crashes
thoughts ? rules that need to be added ? interest ? post it all
