Robot Rumble 2.0 / Re: Robot Rumble 2.0 - Robot Combat Simulator - Under Development

Kix and CodeSilver23, thank you for your answers guys (Sorry mine is a lil bit late...)
But... you missed the main point that would block most of new testers...

When you unpack the september 17's build the "C:\Users\User\AppData\LocalLow\Nerd Island Studios LLC\Robot Rumble 2.0\Robots" folder doesn't exist AND while you don't create it by yourself you can't see the built-in bots and can't start any battle !

For example, try renaming your folder (as "...\Robots.bak" for example), run the game and you'll fast see what I mean. It looks like actually nothing in the game create the folder...

I'm (and you are certainly too) the kind of guys searching the Web and not giving up so fast when it comes to get something interesting working... But at first it's a bit disappointing and some people would have given up the testing of this game deleting the folder thinking it's really too early in the alpha...

Hello,
(My English is far from being really good so I'll do my best but if something I write can't be understood please let me know it, I'll try to make it clearer...)

List of a few annoying bugs or missing things developers and testers should know.

In the lab :
-There are pistons but in "power/tanks" it's empty.
-When you select an item in order to modify a robot, you don't see it's name anywhere (the name of the selected part) so you can't know what it was if you don't know it yet...
-New testers can't (at list with 17 September alpha release) select any robot and start a battle without creating by hand the empty directory C:\Users\User\AppData\LocalLow\Nerd Island Studios LLC\Robot Rumble 2.0\Robots
-Robots you put in this directory (C:\Users\User\AppData\LocalLow\Nerd Island Studios LLC\Robot Rumble 2.0\Robots) can be found but (maybe on purpose) you can't find built in robots anywhere (so it looks like there's a gas tank in Earthquakev1 but you cant edit a copy of the robot to use the tank...)
-About previous line, wouldn't you make possible to export a built in robot to .rr2bot file and more important, won't you make possible to save/export an item/part of a bot somewhere, like in "custom" items for example in order to use it in your own creations ?

In the arena :
It looks that hard crashes of (buggy) bots, when one would probably throw the other one on planet mars (or Jupiter) just bring you from the battle to main menu without any warning or explanation.
