Steam really is cancer though. I have made a point to never install it. I'd hate to have to give in and do so once RA3 comes out.
What issue do you have with it? I think it's a really neat piece of software. Allows you to get games super cheap too.

If windows is giving you a security error, click more info and it will allow you to run it, and it won't bother you again.
If your AV is having a hissy fit just disable it. They're a total waste of time and resources anyway.

How would you guys feel about allowing bots that bypass the rule of 7 by using serge's .exe? I think it would make the tournament a lot more interesting.

Heh. From the EULA:
Except as expressly permitted by applicable law, You may not decompile, modify, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reproduce the Software.
Not that this has ever stopped anyone, but it's yet another example how lawyers are the main reason why we can never have nice things.
Seeing as they've come out and explicitly endorsed modding, I don't think it'll be an issue.

Moved thread from Public Tournament Discussion to Challenge Board.

DG, OH REALLY?!
Edit:DG please post [username] VS [username] on challenge board, this is not a tournament.
Unrealistic Building
SnS Banned
Stock 1.4 (Robot NOOB BETA 1.0)
Heavyweight
Bridge of doom
What is SnS?
And cheatbot2 parts are not allowed pls?
And then change arena to Combat Arena
who is hosting?
SnS are bots that just sit in 1 place and spin. if you don't know what they are you don't need to worry, you won't build one by accident cheatbot2 parts are banned by default

Serge you total legend. Seriously man, super great find. I personally really appreciate how much you've given to the community, and to top it off you solve the 7-limit rule.
If I could give you something I would, but I'm broke and in the UK, so you'll have to make so with my sincere thanks.

Fun fact, the only thing on the pro skater 5 disc is the demo. Activision lost the rights to the series 1 day after they released the game, so they had no time to delay the release. So they just put the demo on the disc and finished the rest of the game in the 2ish weeks between printing the discs and releasing the game. So you need to dl a >7GB 'patch' to play. This patch is you literally just downloading the game.
Somebody watched Guru Larry's video.
Yup

Unity has some ridiculous cross-platform support. Would still have to figure out if it's worth it, but it wouldn't be hopeless.
Even so, the publishing costs for consoles would probably drive OT away.

I think I have it working now.
You got it working with https links too, and inside quotes, what a legend! Thanks trov. Would it be possible to auto-spoiler them in quotes, like images already are?

So if the devs are looking at the thread can they answer my question?
Will RA3 come to consoles such as PS4 or Xbox One or Wii U/NX at some point?
I can already answer that for you: no it won't. Not only is the botbuilding system very difficult to control with a controller, but publishing on the consoles is extremely expensive, even if you disregard the time it takes to port. That's the reason there are so many indie games on PC. The only way I can see it coming to console is as an Xbox Live Arcade title, but I highly doubt that will happen either.

TEAM RULES:
- If that one person is taken for just one bot, then he/she cannot build another bot in a different mod for another team.
What does this rule mean? If I make 2 bots for a team, can I build bots for another team?

It would be very strong in ironforge, due to pistons being extremely powerful in IF.
I think MR. AS made an ironforge bot with a similar design philosophy. I think I did too but never showcased it. The idea was to have a normal flipper, with pistons attached parallel to the flipping sheet to push the other robot forward as it's being flipped.
As for bot advice, your chassis is huge, shrinking that should be tour no1 priority I think

POSSIBLE OFFENSES AND WHAT YOU RISK
- Do NOT spam. You will first get you a warning, then if you do it again you will be warned or even muted. Mass spamming will get you permanently banned. Spam includes any excessive repetition of images or characters, or anything else that is repeated and disruptive.
- Insulting, flaming or trolling is not tolerable and you will be warned or even muted for doing it. Trash talk is notably tolerated in the event of tournaments or contests, but it should not be excessive.
Good work on space management! Unfortunately, SnapperIIs (the blue bursts) usually make terrible wedges. You'll want to try to upgrade to Snapper2s (green and purple).
How many batteries are in the MW?

Forcing a snap to grid system for components would kill the game
It's already snap to grid, just the grid size is too small.
Not really, if you up the resolution on your monitor or zoom in more you can place items more accurately, which wouldn't happen in a grid system. And a component's location on the baseplate is defined by X/Y/Z values, whereas if it were using a grid system an indexing system of all the grid slots would be more accurate. I mean technically yeah, there is a finite amount of places you can place a component and those places are align in a grid-like pattern, but there are so many places that it's not really worth calling a grid system.
