« on: December 15, 2009, 09:10:13 PM »



Weight:


Its going to be DSL 2.1 Middleweight, Bots can weigh no more then 398.9kg.


Construction:


Nopart can intersect another part that couldn't have a slot cut in it inreal life. Example: Spinner blade passing through armor plate orchassis=OK.Spinner blade passing through wheel or battery=Not OK.Thereis a small margin of tolerance, though. If a spinner blade just nicks amotor or something, that\'s OK. Basically this rule is just intended tostop burst-enhanced overlapping spinners like you see in stock RA2.

Glitches in the game may be exploited as long as they do not violate the above conditions.

bewary however as you will only get one do over for the whole tournamentif YOUR own robot has a havok that effects the outcome for itself,thereis also one match do over if YOUR bot causes a havok that effects theOPPONENT bot

no AI parts or Cheatbot 2 only what is found in the bot lab of a "clean" DSL 2.1 copy

And all Robots Chassis must be a cube shape of any size, this means a square base, square top and equal height (so the bigger your base the higher your bot)

I will AI any bots that need it but if you do know howto AI please do, any custom .py files are ok as long as they are sentalong with the bindings and only achieve a means of what would benormally possible

Smartzones may be used including customones(so long as you send along the files) however they may only be usedfor the purposes of AIing no other use will be excepted

No BFE or AAM everything must be done inside the bot lab



All Robots Must Show Controlled Movement


Additional Legal Components


PowerPulse Battery - Legal For Somebody, MikeNCR, Condor33, Naryar, SSG, Man Manu,
Deadly Extender - Legal For Clickbeetle, Urjak
Hell's Hammer - Legal For Somebody, MikeNCR, Condor33
Petrol Weapon Motor (compulsory inclusion of a petrol tank) - Legal For Somebody, MikeNCR, Condor33, R1885,
EMC-RT Weapon Motor - Legal For SSG
EMC-RT Drive Motor - Legal For SSG


Multibot/Clusterbot:


Multibots or Clusterbots are allowed if you wish to make one, the rules are

limited to only 2 "parts"

both parts must be in the same weight class (including AW and BW)

both parts combined must not exceed 398kg

the whole robot will be eliminated if 50% of the weight is knocked out


Format:


The arena will be The Clash Cubes Arena (which will be available soon)

The format will be a Championship, with a total of 7 smaller tournaments of 24 (with byes).

you will compete in 2 of the first 4 brackets and gain points for each round win.

after the first 4 brackets the number of robots in contention will be cut down to only 8

there will then be another 2 brackets of 24 (with byes) which each person will compete in 1 each

after those 2 the contenders will be cut again to only 4

then it will be the championship bracket with only the top 16 robots are entered

if you are no longer in contention you still will compete in brackets as a chance to "upset" those fighting for the championship


AI


as said before custom .py's are not an issue otherwise please specify what .py you wish me to use if you are not able to AI yourself (if you can please do)

if you do not know the best AI give me a brief description of what you want it to do and I will work out a suitable one for your needs
;)

Cool.  I've been preparing for this, but I can't come up with something decent.  I bet I'll be able to make it before the deadline, though.   :smile:

the highest placed VS in CC1 was 2nd and in CC2 was 1st

OooH! I remembered that it would be LW? Well no matter, this is much better. I get to use those motors properly as the lighter version with weapon system left me with about 50kgs for drive and batteries on LW(copals + miniwhees), so not quite good trade off there.

Yes that means: Sign me in.
