RA2 Trials Signups
« on: March 21, 2010, 01:01:15 PM »



Tournament Rules
 
1. The tourney has a Robotica-ish Bracket, 4 bots in each heat.
 
2. Two bots start off in the King of the Hill match (1:00 minute match) in the Hill Top Arena. The goal here is to get more points than your opponent.
 
3.  The second part of the heat is going to be in the Clawtop Arena with the hazards OFF. Here I'm going to make a pushbot (it ain't going to be a hard to beat bot) and the 2 bots will be a team against the pushbot, the goal here is to get the most points in the battle by damaging the bot (pretty much a 2 vs 1 match). The amount of points you get will be added to the points you've obtained in the King of The Hill match (this part is also gonna be 1:00) the bot with the most points makes it to the heat final (if there's a tie, both bots will go to the heat final). If you destroy the trialbot, the decision will still depend on points. One more thing, If you fall off the platform, you will be automatically eliminated.
 
4. Then the heat will end up with 2 bots, those 2 will fight it out in the fight to the finish arena (I found it here a while ago) and here's how it works; two bots start high above on the platform and they will fight it out for 3 minutes and the bot that gets destroyed, immobilized, or pushed out will be eliminated and the winner will go to the finals.

Rules:
1. DSL Middleweight
2. Realistic Rule Applies.
3. No cheatbot2 or custom components.
4. No SnSs (won't do good in the KoTH part anyways).
5. No crawlers.
6. Please AI your own bots, if you can't then I will AI the bots (if anyone's willing to help me with AIing, that would be awsome).
7.NO WHINING ABOUT THE BOT AI BEING SCREWY UNLESS THERE IS BELIEVABLE EVIDENCE AND NOT SOMETHING STUPID (I think we all know why this rule was added).
8. Multibots are NOT allowed (due to the fact that if there's a tie).
9. No havok prone bots.
10. No AAM or BFE.
11. No flamethrowers.
12. Only bot types allowed are Horizontal Spinners, Rammers, Face Spinners, Axes, Drums (small discs in rows are acceptable), Pokers, and Lifters (NOT FLIPPERS) By lifters, something like Sentinel (stock version).
 
Black - Accepted
Green - AIed and ready
Red - There's a problem

Sure, no problem, but you gotta add the walls cause it doesn't have them.
 
Jonzu - It has to be only one bot, and it has to follow the rules.

Well everyone, my game doesn't work, I try to access one of my teams and the game just shuts down on me =P

If anyone knows why, I made a topic on the "Technical Support" board, I need to fix this cause then I won't be able to AI any of the bots.

Well, it turns out that the teams file only works when I take out the tourney AI, and the AI teams work fine...can someone tell me how is that possible.
 
EDIT: Well, seeing that I found a way to AI it, you can send me more bots now.

 If you destroy the trialbot, the decision will still depend on points. One more thing, If you fall off the platform, you will be automatically eliminated. And if you destroy the trialbot, you automatically go to the finals

I think I might have found a contradiction.  Can you clear it up?

No problem ,no problem at all.  I really want to see things like this succeed.


Alsp, 'nother question about the rules; does a bunch of small, vertically-mounted discs in a row count as a "drum"? like this:

Yup, that's acceptable. The VS I don't accept are the ones that are like Nightmare's or 259's.
