Title: Debate: Should RA1 Tourneys Be Accepted Here?
Post by: Hard Bot on June 23, 2011, 01:46:51 PM: I was thinking of doing an RA1 tourney. But then I realized I had to do a debate before I start it. I'm with For. Who's with Against?

No.

Post by: Hard Bot on June 23, 2011, 01:54:56 PM: This is how it could work: The competitors show me a screenshot of their 'bot, then I have to try to replicate it. Since it's impossible to AI in Robot Arena 1, I have to control it.

Post by: Jonzu95 on June 23, 2011, 01:59:38 PM: Not bad idea, but I disagree with you controlling. And I guess RA1 is too hard to edit I guess...

Post by: Jonzu95 on June 23, 2011, 04:22:10 PM: I dont understand why people shoot down OK ideas. I've never played RA1, but I could try to join into one if possible.

wut?
Title: Re: Debate: Should RA1 Tourneys Be Accepted Here?
Post by: Hard Bot on June 23, 2011, 05:33:18 PM: For some unknown reason, chassis damage does not happen when the chassis gets hit.

Post by: Skiitzzox220 on June 23, 2011, 05:35:27 PM: Well I don't think that there's a toggle for it, could be a corrupted copy? Try re-installing

Post by: Hard Bot on June 23, 2011, 05:37:55 PM: It's not.
Title: Re: Debate: Should RA1 Tourneys Be Accepted Here?
Post by: Skiitzzox220 on June 23, 2011, 05:39:46 PM: Ok..... So if your bot has a diagnostics transmitter (that lets you see bot health, use for accurate results) and you hit an opposing robot and the weapon makes contact no damage is dealt?
Title: Re: Debate: Should RA1 Tourneys Be Accepted Here?
Post by: Hard Bot on June 23, 2011, 06:05:50 PM: Yes.

Post by: JoeBlo on June 23, 2011, 08:25:09 PM: 1) No, I have nothing against RA1 but the rules start tournaments must be run under AI otherwise its easily bias.

2) We went to the effort of making a specific discussion topic pinned up the top so this section is left for only actual tournament threads yet you decided to ignore that.
