Okay I think that's enough. Scorpion, as I said, we do have an MLP thread in the Playground section - contact me if you want to find it and can't.

I have 10 NPC Regulars in mine. Zoom zoom. (Zoom.)
I'll have to edit the topspeed a bit fyi.
What, why?
It would likely be flying around the arena out of control. I haven't tested it out yet, but that will probably be the case.
I'm not having you change my robot, I'll send a different one.
If you really don't want me to make your not ridiculously uncontrollable, AI it yourself.
Plus, I wouldn't allow something that flies across the arena at unrealistic speeds in an IRL tournament.

Wow that's a hell of a backlash. I have no idea what your game's playing at HF because even with the (frankly ridiculous) extra 30kg, my bot should still be 4.5kg underweight. I plain out WOULD NOT have sent it otherwise.

I don't think what 09 said was an attack on you, rather that people actually wanted to see this happen to he decided to finish it. If you have a problem with this, you probably should've acted sooner. If you've got any other complaints to make, do it over PM rather than clogging this thread with arguments.

I know it sounds silly but you are extracting it from the .rar right?

Bonk! looks incredible, nice work. Looking forward to having another nice axebot in game.
Also, guys, I hate to say it for the 3rd time in as many days, but questions should only be asked if you won't find out the answer in future (eg stuff like 'Will ----- be in the pack?' and 'When will it be out?' can be found out by just waiting)

Guys, I will restate, HB is very busy, please stop asking so many questions. Would you rather he spend ages answering all your questions, or spend that time CREATING the pack you're awaiting? I'm sure most of the things you ask have come across his mind, but equally aren't things you urgently need to know. Just remember.

(Image removed from quote.) So yeah quicker than most of you guys probably expected (but that's how I roll) but I'm proud to announce a squeal to my somewhat successful stock LW round robin tourney. This one will be IRL however because I promised to do it if it lost out to stock like it did. No complaining please. Tis my sixth tournament so I know what I'm doing, so without further a due lets get down to the nitty gritty.
Rules -DSL IRL (will be enforced but not to the extreme) - 2 Min fights judged by myself -Heavy weight bot class no more than 800 kg -Tread bots get no extra cushion -Multi bots ARE allowed as long as the combined weight is no over 800 -1 entry per person -Arena will be skinned BBEANS V2 - No NARmour - 1 Havok restart, 2nd time eliminated - No AAM, NCR glitch, or any other glitch that makes the bot unrealistic - Trov Glitch is allowed, don't abuse it - You are allowed to BFE as long as the bot stays realistic -Go crazy with replicas I really don't care as long as you follow the other guidlines - Moving weapons may not touch the ground initially. It is OK if a robot is flipped over but not if weapons hit the ground when the match starts. -2 Judge burst max -no walkers/shufflers -no metal hinges
WEAPONS - Matilda teeth - S3 disc - Diablo Triple Bar - Complete Control weapon
WHEELS - Buster Wheel - Ronin Wheel - Yellow Buzzard Wheel - Growler Wheel - Slap Happy Wheel - M.O.E. Wheel -Thermidor Wheel (in extras, beware: needs to be bfe'd onto the bot)
EXTRAS - All extras from Bulldog Breed, Apollyon, Thermidor 2, MOE, That Darn Dustpan, Hworf, Complete Control, Techno Destructo, Minion, T-Minus, Tornado, Tazbot, Wheely Big Cheese, and Lightning - All The Judge extras except gavel head - All Beta extras except battery and HAMMER - All Bob extras except flamethrower and top armor - All Vertigo extras except motor - Dominator 2 right top, left top, stopper, bar, wheel guards, and antennae - Heavy Metal Noise tooth - Ruiner cowboy hat and wheel - billybar, billyg, billyg2 - growlerwheelframe - Matilda flywheel (in extenders)
totally copied from battlebots 9 thanks Massimo
Battle Format -12 max entries -Each robot will fight against all the rest so 11 fights guaranteed per bot -Standings will be kept track of via the almighty challonge -Top 6 of the standings after round robin is done advance to the playoffs -Top 2 seeds get a bye 3 will play 6 and 4 will play 5 -I will not be entering

Sorry I didn't have a massive opportunity to write in here earlier on, but yeah, 09 is taking over the mess Mazakari left despite already running Tusslers.

Could you give us some information about your game? Has it been doing this since you got it, how did you get it, what mod are you using and also have you edited any other files. This can all help us determine the problem :)

And I'm sure you have plenty of experience in how difficult it is to make arenas from scratch. Please guys, stop making massive requests, HB is doing his best to make a pack everyone can enjoy. He cannot pander to every single little desire.

Why would I not? Not sure how I'd AI it though, you may have to do that.

I get this all the time. Thought it was just RA2 being RA2.

Alright HF, BBB is new, so we usually go a little easier on the whole bumping thing. I'll lock this thread up - any updates to these arenas will be posted in the aforementioned mod thread.

It does look awesome, but Click's right on the name - the 'cide' suffix basically means 'the killing of' - like genocide is the killing of a genome (like a group of people).

DP: We have officially switched to Ironforge! Get building your heavyweights as entries will probably open within a week, and will only be open for 1 week.

Standard HW, nothing fancy - having spoken to 123, it may be useful to him for further balancing to just see a bunch of bots on a level-playing field, plus most of us don't fully know what we're doing yet, we don't need complex weightclasses and rules :P
