Active Tournaments / HFT: Rebooted 2
« Last post by helloface on Yesterday at 11:37:31 PM »Main Format
- DSL IRL 2.6
- HFT Arena (lagless version, sorry slo-mo enthusiasts...)
- HW (800)
- Format TBA (primarily 1v1, less woke DEI)
- Deadline TBA
- Up to 3 entries per builder (1 free entry, 1 new [to HFT] entry, 1 reserve)
- Judging will be split between Damage (5), Aggression (5), Control (3), and Style (2)
- Damage based on functional damage inflicted
- Aggression based on initiating contact deliberately
- Control based on ability to steer and direct towards the opponent
- Style based on design originality and match entertainment
Rules
- No flamethrowers, cheatbot2, or custom components
- Reskinned components fine, as long as they do not conflict with others
- BFE allowed as long as it is not used solely for a competitive advantage
- If you do not provide AI, a generic AI will be provided for you
- I also reserve the right to tell you to do it yourself
- Havok explosion may result in match restart or disqualification
- If the havok does not significantly impact the match, or if the havok explosion only affects the bot responsible for the havok explosion
- If a robot is KO'd by a robot with a fully unsupported weapon (e.g. floating spinner) or by a robot who had not performed directed movement for 30s, the offending robot is DQ'd
- No invincible armor
- IRL rules will be enforced more strictly than the previous tournament
Metamorphosis
- DSL IRL 2.6
- HFT Arena (lagless version, sorry slo-mo enthusiasts...)
- Swiss format, 16 builder max
- Four rounds, in sequence: LW, MW, HW, SHW
- Each robot must follow a distinct, unifying theme
- All other non-conflicting rules from main tournament
- Winning builder's HW entry earns automatic extra entry into the main tournament
- Deadline is December 15, 2025 (or until all spots filled)
