Tis' been about four days since I have signed out of my campus life (school is finished) and have settled back at my mothers. Of course this means that I will finally have enough time to make up for hosting ELBITE and working on LU. And that's just the beginning...
I also changed my major from engineering (not much of a math and science person) to web design and graphic art as well as I've finally decided to try and follow some long term goals in this life...
Anyway long story short, I'm finally back on the forums and was just wondering as opposed to what's new? It's good to see new people still becoming members on such a great game as well as my well missed old members.

ANNOUNCEMENT
Due to my new job position in a growing company and change of major in college from mechanical engineer to webmaster (in a feel that it would better benefit us all) I am going to have to postpone the ELBITE Super Tournament until further notice. This DOES NOT mean that I will just leave this tournament unfinished as the other members have. I just need to pick up the slack on my work-I am greatly overwhelmed with things to do. Apologies for this inconvenience and I will announce the re-opening of the tournament. All contestants will still stay as is and I will not accept new entries however.
I hope this is most understandable and again I will let you guys know when ELBITE will continue. Hopefully I will also include ESIS again on my return to this wonderful forum- a promising project.... Thank you

Agreed. Thus is the whole purpose of this new Fear/Respect Rating, I was thinking the same thing.
Perhaps -30 points on Clicks Fear Rating (Maybe 40), and Barbie gets -10? I would count ACAMS as fearful however, apart from owning that rifle!
(no pun intended)
Anyway, Ya'll change the Ratings to see fit. I'm adding basic Respect Ratings to all the members tonight. If they need to be changed, feel free to change them to a better value.

Here is where any changes to the ratings will be posted! I will look here to see if you have made a valid change. Otherwise changes will not be made to that specific member. Fair Enough? Changes will now be looked at/made on the summaries of the wiki pages that the Fear and Respect Raters edit. This means that when you edit a page, type something meaningful in the summary text field at the bottom like "why you rated whoever, etc." This is so that all the rest of us get a clear and equal understanding on why the rating was given. 10 Commandments For Fear And Respect Raters:- Thou shalt not make false judgements.
- Thou shalt not judge based on emotion.
- Thou shalt not judge based on relationship.
- Thou shalt make all judgements logical and true.
- Thou shalt display EVERY change
in this thread on the summary of the members edited page. - Thou shalt not boast.
- Thou shalt not slander.
- Thou shalt abide by the rules of the nomination threads.
- Thou shalt weareth thine badge proudly.
- Thou shalt respect the badge, it's power, and never giveith it to another member.
- And thou shalt of course, Have fun!
For Members posting in this thread (Excluding admin staff):Please be respectful as to not argue with the Fear/Respect Raters based on your rating, In this field they are above you. If you have a problem do not post it on this thread. Instead, send me a PM. If the problem persists, I will talk to Naryar or any of the other heads of the wiki about it.When RatingAs of now, you should have a good idea how many points someone deserves for something. Currently there really is no limit as to how many points one should receive, and it typically balances out thanks to the other members. But of course you shouldn't be making ridiculously high or low ratings anyway - if that's the case chances are, that too will balance out. Anything else you would like me to discuss with you about the Ratings, let me know asap. Do not ask for a position in Rating however, I will let you guys know when the time comes! Thank you.

Run your diagnostics...
1-Have you tried entering cheatbot2 as the bot name?
2-Have you gone into the Components folder and editied the t-minus burst motor so that it is visible?
3-Does your robot like you enough?

Sounds good guys, I await for it to be finished. I have been dreaming of this PY for quite some time :)

Now that you mention it. I believe I sent you a PM in the past. If not I will resend you one. I don't know why I put you in the RR thread, Ill, give your RR spot to the next in line.

This has been lightly discussed, but how would we go about emulating a code that makes the enemy avoid contact with the user or other bots after all it's weapons are broken off?
I think it has something to do with the engage command or the code which makes the AI go towards the opponent. Would reciporicalizing the values have an opposite effect?
To get a better understanding of my reasoning:
Before Weapons are broken off: Bot engages battle with opponent through approaching and attacking
After Weapons are broken off: Bot switches to "flee" instead of "shove" and avoids the opponent for the rest of the match

One more poll for ratings, but a tad different...blah blah blah. Ok since I am creating the new Respect Ratings catagory to everyone's status, I propose that I assign a selected few to assist. Maybe like two more people Besides myself (we don't need much). To ensure that we are the ones changing the Respect Ratings, I will give you this small badge [fake duplicate] Badge coming soon [/fake duplicate] indicating your acceptance into the Respect Raters Group. Put it in your sig if you wish, I would! These badges are going to be straight from my gametechmods ftp directory- To ensure realism, I can simply right click on your badge and check its location. In case some people copy and paste it into their own sig using an image uploader of some sort. Qualifications: -Honesty -Good Sense of judgment -Been on the forums for at least two months The first six people who respond in interest will be polled. After the voting, these six will be allowed to change the Ratings. However, if they don't seem correct to me, I will change it myself. All other changes to Respect Ratings besides the badged members will not count after the polls. Rules once you are a Respect Rater Once you become a RR, you can only be able to change all the members per month. This means that you can only change the Respect Ratings of up to all the members every new month. I will check the Ratings often through the Recent Changes link in the wiki to validate your change. Regards and Happy Rating, Gigafrost Entrants Open: 6 Total- Naryar-
- Somebody-
- Reier-
- Urjak-
- Meganerdbomb-

I believe it is possible, but simply not ethical...

BLEVE it or not Click -no pun intended- but Chizzle actually qualifies quite nicely.    It does nick the axle pieces just a little bit, but I will let it slide as its nothing major and happens often in realistic bot building.

Are you serious?? I sent myself an entry and it worked fine. Are you sending it in .rar or .zip format? It will not accept any other format. if all else fails, email me the entry asap. The Deathmatch tournament has been revealed. It's basically a reskin of the DSL Tourney, but with a more intense skin.    This of course means that you could fall out into elimination, and the cameras have been "bugged" according to the combat arena's standards, in order to take better videos.

When in doubt, check it out: http://www.gigafrost.webs.com/The main reason behind the website was to help it install correctly. Look towards the main page before stating a problem and read the installation readme files! After you install everything in the proper order, I guarantee you, it will have no errors. This website also has valuable bug fixes, so if you downloaded your copy from gametechs- IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

EDIT: Adding manmanu.. @manmanu - The Uploader is ready for you.
