[Mystic2000]

090901 s'entry has been recieved and accepted, 9 spots left, do anyone else plan to enter, or should i close signups on 1st april like i first planned

[Fracture]

I'm interested in entering but would probably need the weekend to do it.

[Joelu Of Eagleland]

Would this be an OK entry?



This was supposed to be entered in a different Stock MW tournament, but I entered the wrong version of it. It looks like it'd be better suited in this tournament anyway.

Hey, would you mind if I update my bot's skin?

[Mystic2000]

Don't worry, bot updates of any sort are fine, i should have precised that before signups started, ****.. also i'm gonna push the signups up to Monday for any last entrants.

Also Joelu of England, that seems fine to me, but i'll still need the bot file just to be safe, also there is likelihood for you to get steamrolled by the more experienced people who entered this if you enter that bot, i won't stop you, but i'm just warning you

I may just end up sending that robot. I was gonna build something different, something more like what everyone else builds, but I'm struggling to get it to work properly (the thing can't even move, somehow the wheels are off the ground despite being bigger than the motors and taller than the chassis.)

If I can slap something together in the next hour or two I might give it a go as well.

[Lightning S.]

I'm in London currently (and as a result, away from my PC,) but considering all I need to do is rebuild one of my bots, It shouldn't be too long before I send something over. I don't think I have time to AI however.

If you have time to build, you have time to AI. AI'ing takes ~2 minutes.

It's more that I don't know how (as shown because I didn't know how long it took)

That's fine, however. As long as your robot does not require any complicated AI line (which shouldn't be the case in a tournament like this), Mystic will give you a sufficient AI line.

If you just copy/paste the template AI from my AI pack, then yes.

However it really pays off to try to optimize turnspeed and other bot type-specific parameters, especially for rammers.  It takes several test battles to make sure you've got it right.
