please refrain for using BMP images of that size either trim the image down or change the format to .png or even better do both  a few hundred kb's is better to load (and upload) then 1.4mb

is that #4586949305 now ? :P
you get a base score of 10
I haven't given those in heat 2 a base score so its easier to not mix them up yet

I don't know where better to put this, how do I create low walls from an arena that is like the combat arena?
first you have to change the collision easy enough, find the collision section *MESH_VERTEX 0 -12.700000 -2.264982 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 1 12.700000 -2.264982 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 2 -12.700000 -2.264982 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 3 12.700000 -2.264982 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 4 -12.700000 13.735018 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 5 12.700000 13.735018 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 6 -12.700000 13.735018 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 7 12.700000 13.735018 13.002705the middle column (Y Axis) is the one you want to look at, -2 is the floor top and 13 is the top of the walls so changing that to something like *MESH_VERTEX 0 -12.700000 -2.264982 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 1 12.700000 -2.264982 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 2 -12.700000 -2.264982 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 3 12.700000 -2.264982 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 4 -12.700000 2 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 5 12.700000 2 -12.397295
*MESH_VERTEX 6 -12.700000 2 13.002705
*MESH_VERTEX 7 12.700000 2 13.002705at this stage im not sure with this arena whether the top collision will come into play ? but I dont think the arena has one? anyway find this.. *NODE_NAME glass walls
*NODE_PARENT arena_display
*NODE_SHADEVERTS 0
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME glass walls
*TM_ROW0 1.000000 0.000000 0.000000
*TM_ROW1 0.000000 1.000000 0.000000
*TM_ROW2 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000
*TM_ROW3 0.000000 -2.264983 0.302705
}
*MESH
{
*TIMEVALUE 0
*MESH_NUMVERTEX 8
*MESH_NUMFACES 8
*MESH_VERTEX_LIST
{
*MESH_VERTEX 0 -12.750000 -0.000001 -12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 1 12.750000 -0.000001 -12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 2 -12.750000 -0.000001 12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 3 12.750000 -0.000001 12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 4 -12.750000 11.999999 -12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 5 12.750000 11.999999 -12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 6 -12.750000 11.999999 12.750000
*MESH_VERTEX 7 12.750000 11.999999 12.750000and change the 11.999999 to the same number as the collision ounce your done I think you will need to add a zone to eliminate robots that fall out or (a much better way) add the python coding for it

I dont know why, but I keep reading LDL as LOL in the brackets... >_>
sorry about that.. its probably becasue its so small becasue I have to fit 7 of those brackets without making the page a mile long also the arena.. Im am surprised as you, AI testing some robots before the tourney and they didn't go oota in the first cycle.. seems like they are going all out... at least it keeps everyone on the edge of there seat :P

ACAMS may not always contact you
how about your work out / develop the ideas people are speaking of in this thread,
such as lints to weight, components, etc
finish up your undecided parts
how about arena, format ? how many teams is there going to be ?
fix all that up and I will give you the go ahead once I think its ready

ok I will do that for the remainder of the tournament a simple nice "Joe could you add a little extra thing to my AI" would go down a lot better then "WOAH MAJOR AI PROBLEM ON XENO" I naturally take a lot of pride in my work... "you do something right or not at all" is my motto, I dont do things half arsed, I have already written 2-3 custom py's myself for this tournament, I don't just smash a heap of robots into the game and hope they all work. I please ask of you use a little more care with your posts

# 3467483853 who didnt read the rules page if you do not know the best AI give me a briefdescription of what you want it to do and I will work out a suitableone for your needs you are "asking" (loosely using that) for me to AI make a custom .py that has the robot use a wired button for a short amount of time prior to the match ?

what happens if you invert a hovering robot ?
can you ?

Battle 3 is up
These Battles get better and better.. if I was doing reviews this time around I would give this one a 5 star no doubt

You have 2 more posts per day than me... not a surprise D: But there isnt 1000 days in a year.... did I break the space time continuum ? :P not that I care much for my post count (unless its a cool or funny set of numbers :P) it just shows im online a lot.. maybe to much D:

I havent seen him since the backwards flame war thread... I completely missed what happened in there ? but that's when he "walked out" anyway this isnt a thread to ask about members, back on topic now

Yeah, I'm just saying that the low walls may give a slight advantage with the huge hammers on BMMB-C. But yeah, I see what you're on about.
XD I just realized I was meant to write @Naryar in my post not @Craaig :P sorry about the confusion :P

another fun fact in my one year of being here I (using round figures) posted 1000 more posts then Nar :P
he was on 3000 posts when I first joined, now the gap is 2000 :P

thanks, your match maybe delayed though as LDL requested the AI that has robots move to the center of the arena before spinning I think all others waiting on more tweaking/ new py's were luckily in heat 2

Is it too late to change my AI to FBSPlus Joe?
no problem, SnS robots were only AI'd with what I think was the best option unless I was told otherwise. no AI changing part way through the tournament though sorry so make sure its what you want is it in NarAI or do you need to provide me a link ? @Craaig... the robots all should navigate around the walls like a normal arena, the AI wont retreat if they are open as (as far as I know) the AI is unable to detect weather the wall is up or down
