I've seen it happen with black batteries out the back of the chassis - so not the same but similar

I don't know about the rest of you, but as a Brit I take everything INCREDIBLY SERIOUSLY. Stiff upper lip 'n' all.

I think you win the award for my favourite bot name so far in the tourney.

It looks pretty cool, in my book, but yeah, the weapon system looks a bit uncoordinated.

GJ for making something at least competent with the chassis. I should have a stab at that once I finish my current top secret project.

It's not a flippermaker, it's 2 45 degree angles on extenders (Though flippermakers would have been so much easier for the arm instead of BFE'ing that second 45 angle for like 20 mins - why didn't I think of this >_>)

-I shall try that, you're probably onto something.

ah. I don't know how I missed that one. I'll just rebuild that bit.

*is embarrased*

(In my defense, I built it right when I redownloaded everything and thought that at like 540 something kg I'd never use it in a tournament, then forgot I had a stacked supervolt when it came round to entering this. But I really should have checked :P)

So I redownloaded Ironforge onto my old PC, and here's my first creation on this machine:



No prizes for guessing the inspiration. Still used BFE to put like 6 of the 45 degree angles on because I planned for the Ro7 incorrectly, but hey, I'm not going to enter it into any tournaments anyway, because it's just quite bad at fighting. I definitely build for the looks in this mod.

Thanks dude. Suddenly the satanist(is that even the word to use?) side of myself wants to do BTTB Revamped 2: Sequel Harder or something. Somewhat.

satanist may be the wrong word. But self-hating, sure. There's a few bots that are pretty expert at getting stuck in circles for the whole match. I'm looking at you, Minimus, Altifood, Popit, WTFHEAD

4 1/2 YEAR DOUBLE POST ALERT

Nobody's really asked for it and it's 4 years late, but RedAce doing that BTTB display tourney in stock has motivated me enough to put this AI Pack together. I've actually had quite a lot of fun today as I went back through my old stuff, so that's made it worthwhile even if nobody downloads it.

What Is Included?

- All 25 BTTB 2 Bots
- All 31 BTTB 4 Bots
- All 4 bots used in the BTTB 2 promo
- The two Twiiisted Arenas

I've been through and updated the AI on any bots I think especially need it (Mostly just correcting sloppy turnspeed jobs). I have forgotten anything I did know about poor old Magmatic Evolution so it's still pretty hopeless, but hey, you can replicate how it was in the tournament.

After BTTB V I'll rerelease the stock AI packs as a single standalone containing all 3 tournaments' bots. When I downloaded them recently I found a bunch of things I need to fix as well so I can do that.

Please continue to sue this thread if any technical hitches arise. They shouldn't, as I tested on a clean DSL 2.1 install. But who knows?

So yeah, sorry this is so late, and enjoy :P
