The Revolutionist and Panic Attack disprove both your claims. You can get "sprung" wedges, which is the same effect the Metal Hinges give you, but they're almost exclusively used for side defense, rather than offensive wedging. If they were used offensively, they would simply jam under any seams in the arena, and not let you move forwards or backwards. Bots like The Revolutionist and Shrederator use lots of small teeth, and bots like Gyrobot (Series 7) have only two teeth to give more hits, so there's no reason why you couldn't have a few big ones and a lot of small ones on the same shell. Granted, the components don't really look that IRL, but the principle still works.

I'm not even gonna bother answering anything except this:

On Topic: I sent my HW well before signups were full and yet it isn't entered. What happened?

What was its name?

(edit): Ah, yes, TT. I'll just put you in front of NFX and give him a playoff.

I think he might be getting a bit peeved with GF93 going on about it quite a while after the event. (Ninja'd) I think it'd probably be best if we dropped the issue now, there's very little we can actually do about it at this stage. Besides, it's freeziez' tourney, we should be discussing stuff about that. =D

Honestly, GF93, take it outside and make a thread or something. This is my thread, for my tournament, and it's hard enough basically running four at once.

Thanks.

Also, two things happen in LW that people have complained a lack of:

- A havok restart
- A match goes to the judges

Stay tuned!

Awesome. When do you think they will be up?

Hopefully, rest of LW (other than finals, they get uploaded last) will be up today.

Might even get some MW done.

A what? I've told you, he should be replacing FOTEPX. I'll find the post in the signups thread for you if you want it.

alright

smashysmashy · « **Reply #109 on:** November 19, 2011, 03:41:57 PM »

too... much... controversy...

I feel really sorry for freeziez

freeziez · « **Reply #110 on:** November 19, 2011, 03:46:35 PM »

Fixed.

Happy?

freeziez · « **Reply #111 on:** November 19, 2011, 04:01:51 PM »

DP

Which AI code causes the weapon to spin up at the start? It works for some bots, not for others.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #112 on:** November 19, 2011, 04:35:33 PM »

Just add a 'range' value in the line.

There is a 'range' value, what do I change? All that I need to fix are 0.1

Badnik96 · « **Reply #114 on:** November 19, 2011, 04:47:59 PM »

Make it 'range':99.

NFX · « **Reply #115 on:** November 19, 2011, 04:48:48 PM »

Omni does, I think. Or Spinner. I'm not sure which one.

I thought "range" was to avoid the hazards.

Conraaa · « **Reply #116 on:** November 19, 2011, 04:49:13 PM »

I thought radius did that, NFX.

Preytor_4 · « **Reply #117 on:** November 19, 2011, 05:34:11 PM »

Question:

What exactly are Ryu-Kishin's weapons?

NFX · « **Reply #118 on:** November 19, 2011, 06:59:36 PM »

It probably is radius. I've not actually AI'd anything in ages.

freeziez · « **Reply #119 on:** November 19, 2011, 09:12:10 PM »

It was radius, thanks Badnik.

Beaters on the top.
