man mr gutsy is so underweight. ~80 kg that could have been used on aesthetics.
MDK is too but less so.
S*** happens. Building to the weight limit is not an issue for me if it's a display tournament. A lighter heavyweight will move a lot faster with NPC-Fasts, and also it gives flippers a chance to look a bit cooler. If I was going to be entering it into tournaments like Battlebots, then yeah, I could do a lot better. I'm almost disappointed that people are nitpicking about weight and stuff in something that is essentially a bit of puerile fun.

Well, I just see an SnS as a box with wheels and some sort of blunt object on a stick strapped to it, I didn't really take inspiration from anything.

Now that I've resurrected my display tournament, I can have a nice throwback to the start of my showcase, and improve the robots I built for it originally. For starters, Heimdall has gone from this:  to this

Actually, Helloface just came up with an idea I like.  5 minute bouts, edited to keep the interesting bits in.

The pilot will still be out on Sunday, but I am already thinking of making changes: - MW instead of HW. Restricts the creativity and range of components I can use, but HWs are just too tough to be destroyed by my designs in 3 minutes. - DSL Tournament Arena instead of Combat Arena. Still reskinned, but allows flippers and rammers to have more of a chance (with low walls and hazards). - Different splashes. Needs a new background. The white text can be a little hard to read at times. Maybe simplify is a bit. I'll put the pilot episode up as intended, and then maybe ask you guys what you'd like to see implemented.  In the meantime, have another preview splash. I'll try and stick to robots that I haven't yet showcased to make it interesting, but time isn't on my side for the deadline.  I'll put up the bracket for the 8 robots that will be duking it out tomorrow.

What the hell is going on with that Perm?

Other than replicas, what do you need help with?
I did have a look to see if I could contribute one, but I'm pretty bad at replicas.

Maybe the bot's name has a space at the end? That's happened to me before. The only thing I can think of is that you did some sort of imporper line break, which sometimes happens. Do you see a red minus sign like this on the left side? http://postimg.org/image/njd18q3cl/68ad06ac/
Sorted. That's what the problem was. Cheers, everyone. <3 u resetti xoxoxox

Cheers for the responses, guys. I'm out at the moment but when I get home I'll test out some of the ideas and see if anything works.
One thing though, on the subject Fracture bought up, what does the 8 after 'weapon' actually mean? I copy/pasted it from another binding and don't actually know. Could go a log way to helping my understanding of what's gone wrong.

Can you post the binding line? It's hard to help without seeing it first.
Of course.  I now know for a fact it's the binding line because if I delete it, the game runs fine. I just can't see a mistake in there.

It's in the right team and the binding is put in the right place in the .py file, next to the first robot in the team.
Having checked back, I realise I didn't make it a flipper, but instead a poker. Basically, I copied Chaos 2's bindings for my own, as it's basically the same kind of design.
Would that make a difference? I mean, I copied Dominator 2's bindings for the hammerbot and that didn't make a difference. I'm really confused as to what I've done wrong.

Ok, basically I started AI'ing last night, it all went fine, got my first robot (a 'chopper') into the game and it ran smoothly. But then I tried again with a second robot (a 'flipper') and now the game crashes every time I boot it up.  Is there any routine stuff I need to check that I might have missed out?

Last post for a while. Growing frustrated with things due to real life problems. Also running out of ideas and falling behind the other IRL builders in creativity. Taking a bit of a break.

Now to go and hide under a rock for a week and hope it gets forgotten about.

For my ridiculous and petty childish behaviour and complaints.
Sorry to 090101 and whoever I flamed without meaning it.
