The only pack I released so far is my first Special Forces pack. That one is not AIed. I also released my Real Robotics AI pack, which is AIed, but it's not hardcore-based.

This will be the first hardcore AI pack I make. The ones I posted (1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 haven't made the downloads yet. They're still under construction. The 4.5 is the latest AI pack yet, with the tougher designs, but it will likely be bested by later hardcore AI packs I make.)

I got bored and decided to remake tornado. It's much better at stock AI level, and you all know that I can make bots better than this.

This version is one of my classic crawler concepts.

I didn't want to use razor tips so I tried pointy tips. DSA for armor and weighs 398.9 kg.

this robot is going to do zero damage

razors work because they dont have normals so driving over other bots does constant damage

pointy tips only do damage at the point, so unless youre planning on flipping sideways onto them its going to do nothing

'said I would make better pokers in the AI pack, and I did. This next team has 3 decent pokers. The team's name is Pit's Army after the angel Pit

First up, a rather interesting poker. It has a T-ram with razors on it followed by stacked razors on a piston. It can really hit hard, but I need to find a way to remove the plastic armor and make it DSA without dramatically decreasing how effective the bot is.
 
screenshot_28.bmp


Next, bigger is better- and even more powerful poker. It has way more razors than the LW poker, and I wanted slipperbottoms because I wanted to angle the spikes down a little bit... DSA armor.
   
screenshot_29.bmp


Now, this one uses EEFE to cram 4 HP zteks on a blue snapper. I'm interested to see how it works in the AI.
 
screenshot_32.bmp


This LW HS has 1 HP ztek with irons on it. It's also the only LW to have castor armor on its underside. The spinner is actually at the back of the bot, which prevents other bots from hitting the tribar. It's built off a blue snapper and has redbird drive and DSA.
 
screenshot_33.bmp

testing this bot in the garage...
screenshot_39.bmp


BW poker. Not too bad, but needs a wider chassis. DSA armor.
 
screenshot_40.bmp


This funny thing occurred  in the last bot... I was stacking supervolts, and for some reason, I was able to stack them like this.
 
screenshot_41.bmp


With that, I built this bot. Pretty damaging, but It's 713 kg, which is underweight. It was originally going to have 36 irons, but that would make the bot overweight, so I stuck with 24. It's probably going to have bigger wheels added on, so I can attach castors to the underside of this bot. DSA armor and 2 supervolts.

That's why I've AIed the bot do point right. This allows it to aim one side towards the opponent.
You're absolutely right, though. If it had razors, it would be more damaging, but I wanted to try something new.

I should have saved the packs I made before this one. Then, I could show more proof. Other than that, I have nothing to argue. You're right.

I should post this as AI 4.5 1 or AI 4.5 A since it's my first public AI pack.

not what i meant.

the whole point is that it's a version of release, not just a version. otherwise you would add another decimal every time you changed a single bot part or line of code

more AI bots...

A LW dual spinner. Surprisingly destructive.
 
screenshot_30.bmp


This trinity bot is pretty cool. It's also very damaging. AIed to just sit and spin but it can drive backwards by reversing 2 of the HP zteks.
 
screenshot_31.bmp


Generic HW crawler. If you look closely, you can see the pink I stacked in it.
 
screenshot_44.bmp


BW HS with DSA and 4 pinks. Weighs 178.0 KG.
 
screenshot_46.bmp


SHW popup. 32 razors on 14 snapper 2's,  DSA, 6 HP ztek drive, 8 supervolts, and 16 spike strips.
 
screenshot_47.bmp


There's also a LW sns on this team, but a screenshot error prevented me from being able to show it. It has 3 irons and 3 razors on RADs, HP ztek drive, plastic armor.

The BW limit is 175, you're gonna have to shave 3kg off somewhere to get that in the limit. Maybe stack the batteries more efficiently and shrink the chassis down slightly?

The chassis is as tight as possible, but I could remove a battery to decrease weight...

I've seen a LOT of beetleweights in Starcore's and Lightning's AI packs that weigh 178 and even 179 kg.

Probably smartzones or something taking them over. IIRC the base stock non-madiaba smartzones weigh a full kilogram.

That's why some of my HW bots are 801kg. and sometimes 802kg.

more bots... They all have DSA.

a LW HS. Again, it looks like an existing bot so I wanted to change it up a bit.

Name's Unquenchable 2. There's the original Unquenchable in my second Special Forces pack (not in downloads yet)

generic ax head rammer with a wedge. It's not AIed to use the wedge to flip, even though it has a control for it and even a smartzone (this screenshot has the bot without the smartzone attached.)

HW popup.....and no it's not SpiTe 2.

Okay, so I guess those bots are fine...

Got bored and rebuilt MiniBerg. It's now a popup. 5 razors, Snapper 2 for weapon power, RAD drive, DSA. I built this bot on a different RA2 game I had.
 
screenshot.bmp


This has to be the most BORING rumble ever... my MiniBerg popup getting flipped around by my rebooted Scout bot, Lil' Dog destroyed, and Catfish inverted. MiniBerg hardly landed many hits on Scout. MiniBerg still won the rumble, but I really did not like how boring this fight was.

more MiniBerg popup fights...

This is another rumble. MiniBerg (popup) vs Big Dog (wammer) vs JACKPOT! (poker) vs Grog, the Warrior (side hammer.) All bots are rebooted and this match is MUCH more exciting...

all 3 remaining bots. JACKPOT is immobilized. MiniBerg gets rammed by rebooted Big Dog.
