Well, first up, the name's inconsistent... Fixed now lmao
Bots may not be updated after the first match has been recorded, except AI tweaks or skin changes
This rule's a bit silly - why no skin changes? I imagine it'd be cool to mark off all the bots we've defeated over the fights, sorta like how Steg-O-Saur-Us did in Series 3. Also, the idea of changing the design opens the door for Tornado-esque shenanigans, and I ain't down with that, bubby.
All matches are BO1 except the grand finals, which are BO5
I'd have it BO3 for every fight, and then BO5 for the grand finals.
If spots are not filled, I may reduce the tournament size or fill spots with standard DSL2.2 bots.
I could create some bye's for you?
Everything else is fine.
BO1s cause BO3s are more than 3x the work, and the bracket/group format I'm using is VERY forgiving on fluke losses. BO1 finals are a bit lame, so BO5.
Skin and AI updates ARE allowed, re-read it m8 :P
You can create some byes if you want and I'll use them, but it feels like there's a lot more interest in the tournament than my last, and that filled just fine, so they probs won't be used.
Oh, silly me. Sorry about interpreting that rule wrong.
I get where you're coming from on the BO1 thing - I didn't see the brackets before posting. I trust that everyone'll get a second chance if they lose by fluke.
Well, PM me if byes are needed. If not, I'll savor my energy for the main tournament.
Where can we download the chassis to start working on the bots?
Check my People's Choice thread, you get at least 3 games even if you lose all 3 (2 in group, 1 in playoff), and if you come top 2 in your group you start in the upper bracket. It's pretty forgiving for flukes. I'll release the chassis after I open signups, gives me time to get feedback on it and change it if needed.

idk I'll do the first 3 requested extra fights later. The reason the bots are hitting the middle is cause their radius values are too msall, custom .pys not needed :) Oh, and Grand Finals added to OP

Alright, rules have been fleshed out. Thoughts/feedback, particularly on the chassis and bracket format?

Well another spasmspinner has finally took the worst robot out of commission
You're not going to learn with that attitude. HS tends to beat VS no matter how good they are.
His was the multibot popup. But yeah, I agree.

Everything except the grand final uploaded. Will upload the final later today or tomorrow, depending on how I'm feeling.

I admire your optimism R01, but put it this way; if this game in a decently playable state within a year, I'll drink a bottle of ketchup and upload it. If it gets updated after a year from now (with anything meaningful) I'll down two more. And I hate ketchup.

It was doomed from release of early access. There are very basic parts of the game missing/broken, and I expect they'd need to redo a whole lot to make it playable. It's a shame they made a horrific cashgrab, if they spent another year or so on it they could ride on the BB/RW hype wave with an actual decent game.

I honestly would have put my money on Redace before the fight, but it turns out your stock wedges aren't as bad as you think badger haha!
Matches were kind of slow, but I think Redace could have at least won the second match if his bot didn't start donutting after the small havok.
No probs hosting guys, happy to do again!
You mean after the countdown? think the havok happened after that. It's very annoying if bots don't want to drive in straight lines.
I expected something like this to happen after seeing the design.
Think the Double Wedge setup might be the next big thing after Popups or Spinners, it doesn't leave any of the front wedgeless(unlike the plows or having normal chassis in the middle) so you need to either hit the wedges, or what happens more commonly, since bots don't drive perfectly straight, one wedge gets in the middle and then gets chewed, bot gets lifted up, fight is done.
This might also be the reason for Conundrum v6's success except that those wedges were steeper.
Hope that Redace gets more luck next time, he seems to be the Behemoth Team in this forum, having good ideas and a great machine but it just doesn't work out when it needs to.
My bot is on the exchange (the one with the really long name) if you wanna see how I did mine. Pretty ironic how a bot called "Why are all my stock wedges awful but my DSL and Ironforge ones good, makes no sense man" wins its wedge war

EASY for Finnish Professional Electronic-sports organization «ENCE eSports», containing insane player Juho «Juhob» Lampinen, who can handle both the main rifles and the AWP (Arctic Warfare Police sniper rifle), incredible support rifler Mikko «xartE» Välimaa who recently won large Vectorama 2016 tournament with his team, professional rifler Miikka «suNny» Kemppi whose decisions make ENCE's opponents literally cry, irreplaceable Tom «stonde» Glad who uses Razer DeathAdder 2013 mouse @ 400 DPI in combination with 1.75 in-game sensitivity to crush his opponents, and of course absolutely crazy Counter-Strike: Global Offensive AWP (Arctic Warfare Police sniper rifle) player Aleksi «Allu» Jalli, who is only 24 years old currently and who has already reached his top-level form, from the nordic country Finland (officially the Republic of Finland), sovereign state in Europe.

Thanks for hosting Hi5er! Classic RedAce luck, worse bot won due to better wedges. Pretty boring fights too, sorry bout that

doesnt look bad, im worried about invertibility though
Use blades, you don't need bidirectional damage.
he'll actually need to free up quite a bit of weight for that
Reduce armour, you don't need alu5 with those plows and a wedge, if either fail you're dead anyway, and this bot needs more weapons for a MW anyway.

You could put the burst behind the bot and use the longer ones. For motors I think those are find it you keep it MW but for HW you'll need to improve it somehow. It's an IRL bot so it doesn't really matter tbh.

It's not the worst. I would improve the weapon motor and drive, increase to a HW and cover the rest of it in armour plates to make it look cooler. RO7 break is allow in basically everything so you should be good to use it.

lmao nice name
I wonder how long that motor's gonna last, considering it's right infornt of the chassis. Pretty cool build tho.
