man those dsl showcases are dead af. though it's standard so i gotta comment

i like harsh master and cat's eyes 1 the best. at least aesthetically. I just like the different angles and shapes on the wedge - and wedge breakers always get cool points for me.

antlion of misery looks pretty fragile to me, and i don't see the point of the plastic extenders in the middle. maybe the design would work better with more weight on the extremities ? maybe if you wanted to do it more effectively you'd make a rammer/flail dual thwack hybrid that rams and then turns left and right to thwack. probably not the most efficient build but it'd be original and pleasing to watch.

rocking russian also pleases me because inertia flippers **** yeah

I have been summoned.

How does 2 entries work though ? Do you just fight yourself if the luck of the draw goes that way ? Is it a team that you have to enter ?

Behold : angry naryar post. Don't want to read it ? Just skip it.

So just about 15 minutes ago, I was getting back from getting groceries. I see a car with two girls inside, one of them points me to the portal I went through to enter mylodging. I first don't get it, then realize she wants me to open the door so the car can go through.

I then move to open the door, automatically. I didn't even choose to act.

Then the car moves past me and before I can open the portal, the same girl exits the car and open the doors, and then thanks me for being kind and that she'll open it and it was fine and stuff. Result : Nothing accomplished.

I therefore go back, having wasted ten seconds of my life being used for absolutely nothing because the girl couldn't plan ten seconds in advance and didn't knew clearly what she wanted. Yet again... neither did I, because I acted on automatic behavior, so I am probably to blame as much as her for this waste.

Can't I bloody choose what I desire to be ? Can't I be lawful neutral and master of my choices ? Can't I reforge what I am and my education as I desire, for only MY purpose and desires ? Can people think before doing moral acts ?

But no, because of my education "hurr help girls becuz it's da rite thing to do durr lawful good", visibly I can't.

Odin damn it, as if this day hasn't started poorly enough.

Maybe I should seek a worthy battle to raise my morale in conflict.

actually the best thing on this site

man i was pretty cringy when i was a teenager right ?

nar ai bots yeaaa



the new mud runner. i went with a stock-like interpretation of the bot. it's very prototypish. probably not up to dsl-s standards. i will rebuild it.



Scout, aka "hey i don't suck anymore". somewhat inspired by the teammates flippers. would have done something less basic, but had no inspiration. hey, at least it's useful now. it used to get stuck on it's back, no longer !

idk if anyone cares anymore about that pack but i'm still posting them  heck

alright, so first step is to rebuild the original DSL-S bots (and the additional three NAR AI exclusives that come with each team but they don't exactly need to be rebuilt, just the slot needs to be filled up). i'll do a part of it but i don't expect to make them all. so any help is more than welcome.

what, you mean IRL isn't all boxy flippers ?

hey everyone. so it's been a long time but after teammates I'd thought I would do some AI pack work again.

so this is it. we're rebuilding NAR AI. without half a billion bots this time, without weird custom components and such.

it's planned for DSL 2.1 but if necessary I can move to another meta.

NAR AI 2020

i expect this to be a community effort (at least me and the few DSL-S boomers remaining here). but all people with interest and skill in DSL-S are welcome to send me bots.

We'll rebuild the old DSL teams originally made by click (and rebuilt by me), up to Arthrobotics, and then you'll be free to send your teams, or claim old NAR AI teams to be rebuilt.

plans :
-basic team format is LW/MW/HW/(any)/(any)/(any) though i don't really mind if you derive from the format. please theme your bots appropriately with the team, send me motto and a team image. i suggest you AI your own bots though it is by no means required.
-i will also list the original DSL 2.1 teams. there will be no claiming of bots, first to send me something accepted will get in.
-weightclasses allowed : AW (125.0 or less), BW (175.0 or less), LW (249.0 or less), MW (499.0 or less), HW (800.0 or less), SHW (1200.0 or less). no ultraheavyweights any more, they are just lag and havok bait.

rules of building :

-DSL 2.1 Standard rules apply. You are allowed to use the rule of 7 breaker. BFE is allowed ONLY if it could be done in the bot lab (again, custom armor shines are fine.) all BFE rules for DSL-S apply.
-i will set some quality controls. i do not forbid anyone from entering but i will require a minimum level of building. though it doesn't necessarily need to be very combat efficient. if it is cool and/or original enough (even if it is weak) i will accept it.

DSL 2.1.1

so this is an optional thing i might do. a balance patch, supposed to work along with NAR AI 2020.

now I know the issues about balance patches as well as you do. yes, i hear you, it will be unbalanced. this is why i will listen to feedback and edit components if they truly seem to be OP. thing is, i intend to make it as unintrusive as possible and as compatible as possible with DSL 2.1. (or whatever version I use for NAR AI 2020)

-no weights will be changed
-no nerfs to existing components to keep razors top tier old builds from being nerfed. this is supposed to be something that just makes unused components more valuable and hence encourage newer and more original builds.
-no custom components, no new attachment points. this is just DSL 2.1 with some buffs to some components. again for maximum compatibility with 2.1 except if you go back to 2.1 with a modded bot it will no longer be as good.
-i intend to change batteries to make any other battery than the ant usable
-skirts will now have HP relevant to their weight.
-default HP will no longer be a thing. npc-f will stay very good but at the same time will stay fairly fragile. no more motors ripped in one hit.

willing to work with anyone who's interested on the balance thing.

__________________

so are you guys interested ? if there is not enough interest (especially on the balance patch) i will not do it.

Boomer of the Andes VS Haha man old



Hruodgaus VS Greslemuef



ALSO, we'll start voting for awards now !

There will be the following awards.

Best Team Synergy
Best Team Theme
Most Fearsome Robot
Most Entertaining Robot
Coolest Robot
Most Innovative Design
Razor Guy Award
BTRSHDBBDDTBL (Bot that really should have done better but didn't due to bad luck)
Favorite Moment


Here are my votes.

Best Team Synergy : Elite Boomers Surprisingly, despite all the teamkills, those were the two who worked best together.
Best Team Theme : TSOotMS
Most Fearsome Robot : Hruodgaus : I wanted to vote for Enfilad3. Then I saw Hruodgaus's amount of OOTA's.
Most Entertaining Robot : T  I  T  A  N It managed to beat a few proper DSL-S bots.
Coolest Robot : Amamanaguchi. Would almost vote for Arabian Death Route, but ADR is a lil bit more generic.
Most Innovative Design : Unstopable can of beans.  It's pretty much the only bot that is somewhat original design-wise.
Razor Guy Award : TSOotMS. The flipper might be pretty damn good but it was quite unstable in training, and the VS... well, you saw how it performed. I was thinking it was an okay team, mostly held back by having one bot doing all the job. Greslemuef was constantly OOTA'd, either by an enemy bot, or it's teammate. And then they ended up going into finals and almost winning.
BTRSHDBBDDTBL (Bot that really should have done better but didn't due to bad luck) : Clark Lockjaw : A pretty decent bot overall, but his teammate was... eh. Didn't have much killing power, and the lack of invertibility didn't help. Also falling on the best byebot team
Favorite Moment : When Arabian Death Route used them flippers to get rid of it's opponents.
