Really Interesting Idea, I would enter this.

[[cringey name goes here]]

The weight limit rule has me questioning. You can easily just set it to LW or something less.

If i just set it to lw tho then there would be basically no point in making the size requirement because its near impossible to make a lw bigger than that square

also if it was lw then every match would just be a contest between whoever has the beefiest weapons on their overhead

can it be taller than the smartzone
also ban flatmotors tbh otherwise its gonna be the only motor anybody should use even for drive

[8bean]

can it be taller than the smartzone

Multiple people have suggested that the smartzone itself is too small for some weapon types. Would stacking 2 smartzones on top of each other provide a large enough space?

Also i received this comment
 

Yes this is allowed. As long as the bot fits within the smartzone in some way then it will be accepted

[NickyDustyOwl]

So dumb question, Does just the chassis itself need to be in the smartzone or does everything including wheels, weapons and wedges need to be in the smartzone?

Everything has to be within the smartzone.

Also sum changes just made
-Fast flatmotors are banned
-the vertical height has increased to two smartzones high
-the smartzone size has changed to medium rather than medium long

[8bean]

Final changes
-The arena will be the trauma pit
-I'll leave it at 16 entries and if more want to participate then it'll open up to 32

If anyone has any questions or suggestions now would be the time to post or @ me about them because otherwise this will go into signups

Good Arena Choice

Y'know, this is actually kinda a cool idea, even if at most I might just make a billet HW within the smart zone limit anyway.

You could always just make a custom smartzone to the size you want it to be then, and also remove the additional APS so someone could place it down and then build with it. If you need help doing it me or someone else could help ya out.

also wtf nicky don't steal redaces avatar

Holy sh**. This would help a ton on the builders end and on my end with checking bots.
Also yea i have no idea how to adjust the size of smartzones or change APs so I would definitely need the help of one of you epic gamers out there 

[8bean]

Just updated the rules to allow 32 bots

[kix]

Bruh can i make a bot that fits in 2 smart zones next to each other mr. 8 bean man?

bro thats literally bigger than purple nurple
 

aka no

but if you desperately want to make a wideboi you can build it so that it contracts into the smartzone with a piston or something and then extends when the match begins

[8bean]

Thanks to the epic gamer power of 09090900909091 there's now a custom smartzone that is already two tall. (download link is above)

And with that i think we're finally ready for signups.
