hey S_M.. I have decided to let you do something special just do to the way CW works
would you like captains to not count to your 16 limit ? so each team is captain + 4 team mates
up to you but just because you have past success in hosting and your tournament works out really only a 4 robot bracket?

If you do pack up and see the world make sure you plan a trip to Philly in early October and bring your bot.
we shall see what cash flow is like come october :P.. but im not sure if I would bring my bot.. customs wont let me travel home with a garbage bag full of shrapnel :P I have nearly no more building drive, maybe it is time for me to fade into the rank of legend.
mmm... Legend rank sure does sound nice doesn't it?.. I keep trying to motivate myself/ maintain interest to do things.. like Backlash online or CCIV but honestly im quite past this game.. I haven't even built new things for tournaments.. just dig out out robots from the robots designs folder,

The main problem was no range value.. thats why I wouldnt spin until close.. and the re-immobile time was to slow for a slow robot :P
list.append(("Huge SnS","FBS_1",{'invertible':True,'PreSpinEntrance':1,'SpinDirection(1/-1)':-1,'ReMobilizeRoutineTime(10-60)':60,'range':99,'radius':0.1,'throttle':100,'topspeed':99,'turn':60,'turnspeed':5,'weapons':(1,)}))
controls themselves were fine
this .py is probably one of the most advanced / technical to work with.. a lot of different things / strategies can be made with this and FBS_2...

Here it is. I got into a few accidents on the way to the track, hope the sponsors don't mind a few stains!
ACAMS will probably approve :P I like the headers on it too..

something on an iphone will never be an actual good game anyway.
wrong :P I have an Android with SNES and GBA emulators on it... they have some epic games... so a phone can have good games (angry birds is awesome too I might add)

1.3 patch was made by RA2.. but requested by ACAMS I think, he said it was a fight and a half to get that from them... thats why asking for the source code is seemingly pointless
but it is official none the less, it just doesnt edit the number written in the credits
1.4 is mine, I refered to it as u1.4 but its slowly taking off, it basically enabled the AI parts, added preview images to them (they normally lacked on some) fixed names (some had odd asterisk's in names and such) and enabled the 140cm extender too.

You be surprise to find out that building team is easier to manage than receiving teams,
thats just because you can pop robots out like there is no tomorrow :P the worst thing is re-arranging AI'd robots (like CCAI 2) thats annoying...

THE RULES
--Bots--
1. All entrants must be DSL 2.1 Middleweight. (249.0kg - 399.0kg)
2. All bot building MUST be done in the Bot Lab. No BFE AAM, or ZeroG. Bot File Armour c will be enforced.
3. Standard Realistic Rules apply, however all glitches may be utilised providing they do not violate this rule.
4. All entries must have a MAXIMUM of 20 components on their robot.
4. No cheatbot2, AI or custom components.
5. No "invincible" armour (halfsheets, skirt hinges, casters, etc.).
6. No skirt hinge (MCB) or Typhoon Flag underground wedges.
7. No crawlers.
8. No Flail Spinners of any kind. This is to reduce the threat of Havok Explosions.
9. Multibots are not allowed.
--The Tournament--
10. Each robot gets ONE free Havok Restart per match, and THREE for the entire tournament. Any further havok explosions will result in a forfeit, so keep this rule in mind.
11. If a robot is immobilized on a broken component with more than half battery power and no damage to its control board, the match will be restarted.
12. AI'ing your own bot is preferred. I will AI your bot if you are unable to, but all bots AI'd by me will use Onmi.py, and only move towards the opponent and use their weapons. They will NOT be fine-tuned.
13. Each match will last three rounds of two minutes each.
14. Matches will take place in a reskinned RA2T2 Arena. Hazards will be ON.
15. There will be 16 places available, with a Loser's Bracket. The Loser's Bracket and Winner's Bracket champions will fight in the Grand Final, where the Loser's Bracket Champion must win at least 3 out of 4 matches to become Grand Champion.
16. Once all 16 places are taken, entrants will have ONE WEEK to make minor updates to their bots. A minor update is one that does not significantly alter the robot's design, or the way it performs.
17. If all 16 places cannot be filled in significant time, signups will be "locked" on January 30th 2011. Any members entering after this date will be unable to submit updates for their bots. Members entered before this date will still be eligible to send minor updates.
18. Signups will officially close on February 2nd 2011. If all 16 places have not been filled, byes will be issued randomly in the first round.
- These are the rules, they cannot change at any point from now. - The following tournament is a Minor League tournament. - The ending deadline for this tournament is April 03, 2011.
