Is that 2700hp per component or 2700hp overall?

I agree with mechadino, especially as you're putting a competitive gimmick on an IRL tournament. IRL isn't about efficiency or competition.

Title: Re: 1-Shot Showdown

You guys make a good case. I'll poll it.

Competitive gimmick + irl = :(
Definitely an idea that needs to be carried out in a meta intended to be competitive.

Post by: Baconus_Yum on November 06, 2016, 05:41:58 AM

My idea is already thought of. By the way, I have 2 questions:

1. Is external armor allowed?

2. Is there a weight limit?

1. Is external armor allowed?

2. Is there a weight limit?

1. I would assume so, as long as none of the pieces have more than 2,700 HP.

2. It says MW in the rules, so yes.

I have a question of my own, actually:

Quote from: Guldenflame on November 05, 2016, 04:06:44 PM

all components on the outside of the robot must have 2,700 or less HP.

Does that mean internal components can have more HP? I don't suppose it would matter that much, other than allowing you a wider choice of motors. Actually, would components that stick out of the chassis (like Perms) count as external?

Title: Re: 1-Shot Showdown
Post by: cephalopod on November 06, 2016, 06:25:23 AM

Any component mounted directly to the chassis is invincible and cannot be knocked off so I'd assume that's why all inside the chassis are exempt.

Ban attatching halfsheets and casters directly to the chassis if you haven't already.

Also clarify what you mean by "CF and BFE" allowed since this isn't an IRL tourney. ( You really shouldn't be allowing cheatbot2 then too)

Halfsheets stick out of the chassis and have more than the given hp amount, so saying that is kinda pointless. They're banned by the actual ruling.
However the point on casters makes sense.

Also edited for a little more clarity like you said.

halfsheets can be attached directly to the chassis and are invincible when done so

also, just do what everyone else does and say you're accepting like 8 entries in the OP, and then expand it to whatever you want after it goes into signups. ez loophole

I don't know actually... I just thought I needed it after not allowing it in the previous tournament.
Should I disallow it?

Hopefully whenever I get a reply on the question above...
I really didn't think about why it should or should not be allowed...
_{Partially because I have no idea what BFE does. :dumb)}

Title: Re: 1-Shot Showdown
Post by: yugitom on November 15, 2016, 10:36:30 AM

BFE is generally allowed for IRL tournaments so bots can be made IRL easier. It's usually the norm to not allow BFE in tournaments.

Quote from: Guldenflame on November 15, 2016, 10:31:24 AM

_{Partially because I have no idea what BFE does. :dumb)}

BFE is bot file editing. It allows one to move parts around via editing the bot file, as opposed to doing the edit in the bot lab. It's never really used for standard building in a legal way because there's no stacking in standard tournaments.

I guess that makes sense.
So that's how spinneroo, mate made his teeth float after losing his discs.
I should probably not allow it in the rules.

Title: Re: 1-Shot Showdown
Post by: Badger on November 15, 2016, 11:42:41 AM

You should probably replace all your IRL rules and replace them with the rules from another standard tournament, so stuff like BFE and cheat components aren't allowed.

Rules:

DSL standard + DSC's IRL packs
MW
12 to 32 entrants
2 entries per person.
Gimmick: The robot's armor must have Plastic 1 armor and all components on the outside of the robot must have 2,700 or less HP.
(Just for clarity, 2,700 per component. Not all at once)
Swiss army bots: Allowed
Rule of 7 break: Allowed
BFE: Disallowed
CF is allowed, but no components should intersect.
All bots must have at least 2 wheel drive
Cluster bots: Disallowed
Cheatbot: Disallowed
Casters cannot be mounted directly to the chassis.
If a match is decided on a havok explosion, I'll restart until a clean victory is found.
Judging will be based on damage, control, and aggression. Wedging does count toward aggression.
Arena:

To ensure maximum destruction, I decided to go with a more destructive arena.
And what better arena is there for destruction, than the Blade arena!?

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/43991Screenshot (185).png)
Tournament rules:

When received, a robot will be given a score based on its damage potential.
After the qualifying round, they will be given another score based on how well they did in their match.
The 2 scores are then combined and compared to each other to determine both the seeding and wildcards.
In the case we get exactly 16 or 32 competitors, seeding will be done on damage potential alone.

12-14 entrants: The bots will be randomly drawn with each other, then losers will be given wildcards until we have a field of 8, afterwards, it's single elimination.
15-16 entrants: Double elimination.
17-30 entrants: Same as 12-14 but with a field of 16 instead.
31-32 entrants: Double elimination all the way.
My entry:

Exposed wiring!

Just for clarification, what is Swiss army bots and Rule of 7 break?

Title: Re: 1-Shot Showdown
Post by: yugitom on November 15, 2016, 05:44:46 PM

'Swiss army bots' are bots with different weapon systems that can be changed for particular match-ups. Tornado is an RL example.

Ro7 break was made by Serge and it breaks the rule of 7 (https://wiki.gametechmods.com/index.php?title=Rule_of_Seven), a rule which limits how many components you can attach in a row.

Because we've hit the minimum entrants, I'll put a deadline now for:

I'm quite impatient at times, but this should be enough to finish some robots.

Also, I've put in a second entrant for now.
