A FEW NOTES ABOUT THIS BUILD
If you are struggling to get your motor electronics working, please head on over to Discord. We have an active community there with a channel dedicated to #rr2-support:
https://discord.gg/tXwYay9This build is now "physics complete". You should be able to model most combat robots you see in real life in the game: bar spinners, drum spinners, pneumatic flippers, servo-driven lifters and grabbers, wedges, and rambots.
NOTE - The game doesn't support things like tank treads, omnidirectional wheels, or 4-bar linkages. We might consider adding them later, but our priority is to finish the game first. You can simulate many of these motions by combining existing mechanisms in the game.
Damage System - The damage system is disabled. Damage and component breakage will be the focus of the next stable build.
AI - Still mostly broken. For the most part all the AI does is turn on its weapon at the beginning of the match and keep driving at the nearest opponent. Once the new damage system has been straightened out we will redesign AI around the new approach to damage.
Once the game is mature enough we will be replacing all of the house robots with ones built in the robot workshop. Any bugs that exist in the current robots will be completely replaced by entirely new bugs at that time.
