Alright I know, the last tournament wasn't really popular, but I'm going simple on this one. 4 people only (might be 8) because I want to test S32's bracket (I think it's more of a league).
Rules:
1. Bots must be DSL
2. No tampering with the bot file except ingame
3. Weightclass is heavyweight
4. Custom py.s must be fair and not uber power the bot (MAD)
5. Realistic
6. No unrealistic glitches
7. Parts are from DSL 2.1 only
Sign ups
1. Sage
2. trumpetguy
3. Naryar
4. Urjak
5. Virus Bomb
6. 123STW
7. JD
8. Scrap Daddy
9. Stagfish
10. Somebody
11. STC
12. Pwnator
13. JoeBlo
14. Badnik##

AI'ed
Send me the bot first then I will put your name up.
Prizes:

Arena:
Expanded Combat Zone (thanks for the tutorial, JoeBlo) There will be something waiting for you in there
-
Sounds interesting, could use a more details, though.
Will probably just send the bot and maybe try to AI it and send you the bindings later, if that's ok.
-
I might enter this one ? I dont really know at this stage because Im really busy, there comes a time were I really cant enter every tournament lol
but i will ask about the name ? just curious how it fits in :-D
-
Oops, well when I originally typed it I was thinking a multibot tourney....actually lets have a vote:
1. Multibot Tournament
2. Regular Tournament (Multibot and one bot)
-
I made a poll for you :-D if you want a name change at anytime let me know because I can rename the thread for you :-D
-
Thanks Joe, your a big help.

Help? I can't make the Rage any more clear, can somebody send me a better rage that looks good shrunk down?
-
what program are you using ? resizing images works better with one of the high end programs like photoshop or fireworks or even windows media and fax viewer :-D
-
I tried 3 programs :Paint, Gimp, and Paint.net, that is Paint up there, the best out of the 3 :(.
-
Is it multibot tourney?
Also, 4 people only? This will not be long.
-
Check S32's "bracket" a 4 bot tournament can go up to 12(?) matches and 8 bot tournament can go up to 56 matches.
-
try opening the image in windows media and fax viewer ? re-size the window and it will reduce the image size then hit print screen :-D
-
Hmm it appears I don't have those programs....time to google it, re-size it after I paste the rage or before?
-
every windows computer has Windows Fax and Media viewer :neutral:
right click the image and click preview ?
-
4 bots in S32 type bracket will be 6 fights... that will be short indeed.
Definitely do 8.
Oh and i am in. Expect something quickly.
-
Kewl. I could probably send in an update Jew Hunter when I have the time. :D
-
providing this tournament is going to be normal heavyweight (multibots not compulsory) I already have my entry ready :-D original too :P
-
You might need to increase the width of the lines on the head, I needed to do that for the decals on my tourny, because they were too unclear.
-
I'll also enter this if there is space
-
Shockwave 2 is awesome as a multibot, but IDK how to enter really. Might build a HW just for that but stil.
What's the arena ?
-
Hmmm...maybe a slightly expanded combat arena
-
Entries received so far AI'ed.
PS: You name the srimech, "Srimech", right?
-
yes you do for omni.py unless you feel like changing it :P
-
I am so entering HnM 4 in this.
EDIT: Sent
EDIT2: That is fun, the tournament has the same initials as Brawl of the Builders...
-
I need help with the Combat Arena skin, every time I start a match, the game crashes, would anybody want to check the skin?
-
I am sending my bot right now.
-

send over the whole arena file and .py and I will have a look at it for you :-D
-
My bot has been sent.
-
For this tournament I might expand the entries to 12, can somebody do the math to see how much matches will take to do that with the tournament being a 2 out of 3 match.
-
my quick calculation 132 matches
264-396 battles
-
Well lets see if I can reach 8 entries first....
-
I have a n entry ready but I want to make sure I can AI it before sending it lol
-
Bot send. Since I send my strongest bot for NAR AI already I guess I send in the bot I build today (Let's hope the wedge doesn't get mess up or I am gonna get kill, a lot).
-
I sent a bot. Cobbled it together today and it fares decent. Guaranteed flaming from Naryar, but i can take the heat. :D

Let me guess, its a crawler.
EDIT: That could also be true Virus Bomb.
-
Or a flail spinner.
-
I will see if I can get Crashy in.
-
Let me guess, its a crawler.
EDIT: That could also be true Virus Bomb.
Heh, I don't have a deathwish! :P
No. It is a Vertical Spinner... But my DSL building always seems to raise the hairs on the back of his neck so I am prepared for some smackdown. (what can I say? I am still learning.) Good guess though.
-
Well good. A crawler would have easily destroyed my entry...
-
im entering RAGE GUITAR!
-
Well good. A crawler would have easily destroyed my entry...
So far the most defensive bot is mine *hint/spoiler*
-

Is your bot a crawler?!
EDIT: Thank god...
-
No and entries are full, but I am willing to expand.
-
I need your binding Naryar.

list.append(("Hope No More 4","Popup",{'nose':math.pi,'radius':0.5,'topspeed':100,'throttle':130,'turn':60,'turnspeed':2.5,'weapons':(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12)}))
It will work much better with the new Popup.py (the one in Click's BBEANS AI pack), if you didn't already have it in DSL.
____
Anyways as far as i saw on the forums, there's going to be some tough competition here... don't know if i can win this.
-
if you will let me I would like to enter :-D
-
Me too. I kinda want to enter SnSnSnSnS 2 to test it out even though I know I will get flamed for it. It probably wouldn't win anyways. It takes a bit longer to spin up than the old one so that may affect it.
-
whats legal is legal
its also your signature bot now :P
-
I know. I kinda like having a bot that most people recognize now.
-
lol i made a guitar bot to enter
-
I am willing to expand the entries, so yes you may enter.
-
OK I shall send it soon, with an AI to follow later.
-
I hope you realize, somebody, that the only reason snssnsnsnsnsn ever wins any fights is becuase its a HS.
-
...becuase its a HS.
That spinssss.
I know also. But it still wins. A lot.
Same with:
Turn abouts fair play
Synergy
Magnetar
They are just like SnSnSnSnS, just stock (so unrealistic) and MW.
By the way, I haven't seen you saying anything about them.
By saying this I don't mean that you never said anything, I just haven't seen it yet.
EDIT: Also it is now sent.
-
I know also. But it still wins. A lot.
becuase its a HS.
ive also never heard of any of those bots you said.
-
You are IN RAW 2 goddamit!?
All three are in it.
Turn Abouts Fair Play - ACAMS
Synergy - R0B0SH4RK
Magnetar - Pwnator
-
Nar, your bindings are not working...
-
expect my bot within the next few minutes
it can beat a lot of the NarAI HW's :P
I will AI it but I need to chat to Mad about some possible things, if not I will do it myself :)
-
Oh and llop d loop, your bot is the anti-entrant, it's stock, it's a LW, but since you sent an entry, I will save a spot for you.
-
sent mine off :D
-
Arena:
Expanded Combat Zone (thanks for the tutorial, JoeBlo)
err would you like the rest of the tutorial ? lol I only told you how to change the collision
-
Figured out myself, seems to be fine, no bots going to random places...
-
awesome ... did you get my bot ?
-
Yup, looks good Joe, just send me the bindings.
-
I will once I have a chat to Mad, if not I will try a solution myself
are matches best out of 3 ? or just 1 match ?
-
Best out of 3.
-
ok thanks, I might need to chat to mad or possibly work out another solution, I want the robot to change "strategy" depending on opponants (if you understand what I mean ;) )
-
my bot rage guitar is gonna get ANGRY! with other bots lol
-
Your bot is the same thing, LW, stock...
-
Any updates?
-
I am guessing the registrations are closed...
my bot rage guitar is gonna get ANGRY! with other bots lol
Isn't going to give him the win :P
-
Do you want me to send a binding or can you do it yourself TG?
It would just be the SnSnSnSnS binding from CCAI but with SnSnSnSnS 2 in it instead.
-
Yea, I just have to finalize a few things then we could get started P.S. Registration closes right now and if you have your bot in before this post then it is in, I just did not update the first page.
-
Rock on and good luck! You will have a bunch of filming to do... try not to stress yourself out. Looking forward to the splash. Isn't that the best part of tourneys eh? :D
-
I will have my AI to you soon :mrgreen:
-
Shoot! I'm too late. Oh, well. Next time
-
im gonna lose no doubt about it
-
AI I need: Nar's (there are " all over it, is that normal?), and Joeblo's (Your bot is special).
-
yeah I still need a chat to Mad, I will work out a solution if all else fails
Edit: ok I have a AI in the works now, I will get it to you tomorrow (my tomorrow) which is about 12 hours from this edit
-
Can I join? I have a sick HW rammer that is BEGGING for a challenge.
-
Sorry you are late.
-
aw, man!
I already sent my bot though...
-
ok TG just testing out my new .py I finished
you may need to AI my robot twice... I will explain more when I send you everything ;)
-
Can't you extend the entries to 12 PLEASE?
-
There are 12 competitors.
-
I just noticed im not part of that 12 ?
looks like your full up without mine not to worry, my AI needs more work so it would only be holding up progress ;)
best of luck with your tournament, maybe next time I will have everything ready :mrgreen:
-
Sorry Joe, guess I did not reqularly updated my list, again sorry. *sorryface*
Guess thats what happens if you put school in your life.
-
DP
UUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH.............
My mind keeps on telling me to do the right thing....*sigh*, JoeBlo, Badnik, you guys are in but officially after this post no more bots.
-
its no issue, I was only holding things up :P
I will be first in cue for your next tournament though :mrgreen:
-
It's ok Joe, I am on winter break anyways, since I am waiting for several other people's AIs also *coughcough* Nar, SD, people.
-
lol but this could take a lot longer..
unless I entered another robot I already have made and AI'd to speed things up :P
-
That would be nice, it's be cool if you can show your flame-thrower bots.
-
argh you read my mind :P
the HW can be little havoky but the MW is pretty stable, so in keeping with the tournaments name, I will enter a multibot made up of two of the MW's (is multibot's are still ok)
Expect them and Bindings real soon ;)
-
WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Sent :mrgreen:

Am I suppose to put the " in the binding also?....Nary you are confusing me.
-
No, it should be speech marks instead of the "s.
-
i entered a SFTW lol
-
thanks for putting me in TG :D
-
These : ' or these "?
-
I'm pretty sure its: '
-
For what? " should replace "'s.
-
The Robot's Name and Python shouldbe wrapped with " marks
others like nose, throttle, etc are wrapped with ' marks
this foum doesnt seem to like bindings much, it would be easier just to post them as a txt document

Must be this.
-
HnM 4? This'll be good.
-
Uni-Directional Weapon makes me happy :mrgreen:
-
Woohoo 9/14 AI done....
Still need to AI Stag's, Badnik's, Virus Bomb's, STC's, and Scrap Daddy's.
-
AI question, when AI'ing with the FBS_2, you have to wire a button named Spin for the bot to spin right?
-
I think it's an analog named spin. I'm not sure though.
-
yes analog otherwise it will not break count ;)
-
I know were not supposed to bump Tourney threads, but I was just wondering how things were going...

He's on it. Just got a lot of stuff on his plate at the moment.
-
Oh wow, never saw that thread. Well that's good to know.
-
OMGWTFBBQ I'm back, thanks JD for that (PS I turned 13). Well anyways for those who did not know, my laptop was broken. During repairing, however, some of my unused data was deleted, to make room, so I have to restart the splash and bracket, but I still have bots and bindings. I just have to tweak a few bindings, and if someone can help with the splash and bracket to speed things up, I am truly grateful.
-
the Candy Man is in da house :mrgreen:
I can help you out here
-
I hope you had a nice birthday.
-
Glad you (and your laptop) are back. Looking forward to this tourney :D
-
Woohoo the AI is pretty much steady now (key word: pretty) so yeah if you have any thing specific for your bot, tell me.
-
Well yes i do have something to say...
...HnM's wedges are outdated :(
-
I have one quick question..
Why is this tourney DSL if the prize is an edited RedBird?
-
Well I was hoping for my next tournament it would be stock, but I guess I won't be able to host one, with my time.
I will try and fix the Rage Snowplow.
-
*Realizes there is no rule on cheatbot2 parts*
-
Oops, well people sent in their entries.
-
Update: (well not really) Joe, I just send you the pics and info and you can do the splash right?
Also the AI has gone wacky so I am resorting to copy and pasting old bindings, with minor adjustment for bots that did not come with bindings.
-
What do you mean by wacky?
-
As in unstable or the turnspeed and max speed are too fast or slow, not extremely 'wacky', but I guess not showing the bot's full potential.
-

Well I can honestly say that a majority of us are grateful that you are actually taking the time to make sure the AI is good for the bots. (run on sentence ftw)
Thanks for taking the time to work on all this.
-
Can I send an update to my bot?
-
update as in AI or the bot itself?

hehe I was waiting for them to come :P yeah I can whip that up NP
-

the bot, but the update is worse. And for AI, just use NAR AI's Blazing Tires AI.
-
Just realized i failed on HnM's srimech setup. Can i send an update ? There is no component change, the only change is a burst's settings.
-
K, just send them over, everybody can send updates also, since I accepted a few of 123STW's updates.
-

And Joe, I'm sending the pics now.
-
I gotta make an update that works!
Unless I can change my bot entirely...
I made a killer HW last week.
-
Please keep the bot similar to the one you sent earlier.
Edit: According to his showcase, one of the most feared: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4iBFfwo3bs
-
darn. I'm screwed.
-
From testing, your bot can probably do one or two wins
Hint: Most bots here are some sort of spinner.
-
I think havok's will be my loss :P
sometimes the robot is stable.. sometimes not
could go far if I dont get havok issues much
-
That little trailer originally had your bot, since your's is so special, but it was to unstable and havoked OOTA.
-
well,I don't stand much of a chance due to the fact that my bot is pretty much unstable =/
-
You sure that the Perms were spinning? Didnt really look like it...
-
its the wonderful illusion of the game
once the weapons are up to speed they appear to go in reverse... then combined with the drive in the other direction makes them look almost still
I tested it in CC2 as I thought the same thing :P
-
Run for your life, it's SnS 2!Off Topic: Joe, why does your website look weird?
-
weird ??.. oh no, will check it out
