Rust In Pieces 2 - Splash/Brackets/Videos

[Badnik96]

WOW Can I get an instant replay of Shiva vs Reptilian Strana?

[The Ounce]

Match 5 = proof that DSL true popups are gay.

But I thought that Claymore was a regular popup.

Brackets have been updated for Round 2, and I am now announcing a Loser's Bracket! (Let's hear a 'yaaay' for that :P). I mainly did this because I think people deserve more than 1 match, especially the more interesting specimens such as Fire Bowl and Timber 2.

[S.T.C.]

Well, atleast I'm not completely out then 

[FOTEPX]

STC you destroyed JB i was not expecting that

I lost against Naryar, 090901 went against JB.

Yo dawg, we heard you like spoilers so we put a spoiler in your spoiler so that you can spoil stuff while you spoil stuff.

[cephalopod]

Not in my thread thanks FOTEPX.

[Naryar]

*Whacks FOTEPX for spamming and the leopard for pointlessly BAWWWWWing*

[nicsan2009]

BOT anyone wanna put predictions for round 2? (i dont like to predict tourneys that im in)

[cephalopod]

All I'm predicting at the moment is I'm gonna be oota faster than I got NFX oota last round. XD

[Naryar]

I'm up against 123 ?
 
I have my chances... but still i don't like this.

Lol my bot is in NAR AI.  I am sure you know what you are up against.  Although your bot seem to be moving awfully weird on the first match.

Wow the part where GK's bot bounce back up after an OOTA just to get finished off was unexpected.

*Sees RIP2 brackets and videos thread* 
*Looks at splash, sees tons of VS's and hardly any HS* 
*Looks at first match.  "All right, I can win this!"* 
*Watches video* 


Timber II is good against shell spinners, not SnS's, but I thought I would be able to get more hits on Smooth Criminal.  Maybe should've moved the smart zone further forward... I ALMOST won on points, a few more hits and I could've done it.


(For those wondering how Timber II got so many points - it's called 13 425 DP weapons, plus Smooth Criminal not scoring any points on the heavy plows once their HP is gone.)


Well, surviving 3 minutes with a SHW SnS and not losing a single component is pretty impressive, I suppose, if not particularly exciting to watch.  At least Timber II is more durable than the original Timber.    Now to make it faster...


Should be able to win in the losers bracket if I can get under Big Block (iffy) and then hit the chassis and not the drums (should be doable).


HEY CRAAIG I'VE GOT A PRESENT FOR YOU.

I edited apanx's FBSPlus and FBSInvertDir .py so it's much less laggy, while still performing essentially the same.  I'm using these in BBEANS.  Thought you might appreciate that, having to film SHW's in the Electric Arena 2.  Any bit of less lag to deal with is a blessing.

[123savethewhales]

I just tried that FBSPlus and it's good.  Thanks Click

Craaig:  Change my Death Star to the new FBSPlus if you got the time, the loading time reduction is quite noticeable.  Here's the binding.

list.append(("SHW - Death Star","FBSPlus",{'spinspeed':13,'invertible':True,'nose':math.pi*0.25,'radius':0.1,'topspeed':150,'throttle':130,'turn':100,'turnspeed':99,'weapons':(0,)}))

[G.K.]

Hmmm, Somebody. This will be hard.

[JoeBlo]

stupid gay flippers.. I should have just entered my Generic robot

[Naryar]

FBSPlus and FBSInvertDir are my edits :P
 
But thank you click. I will get these new ones into NAR AI ASAP.

Although your bot seem to be moving awfully weird on the first match.

That because i failed at wiring and the left forward NPC's spins the opposite way it should on Forward command... HELLO MR. CRAAIG ???
 
 

[cephalopod]

HEY CRAAIG I'VE GOT A PRESENT FOR YOU.

Why thank you! 'Tis indeed much appreciated (:
I'll switch a few of them over right now. A lot of the lag hasn't been too bad, but Match 6 was , understandably :P

I should have just entered my Generic robot

NOOOOOOOOOOO creativity is good. I like it in my tournaments a lot.


EDIT: Okay, 123 and nicsan have been switched to the new FBSPlus, Shiva's driving issues are fixed and everything else is in position. Time to begin Round 2 I think!

[NFX]

All I'm predicting at the moment is I'm gonna be oota faster than I got NFX oota last round. XD

I disagree entirely. What was it, seven seconds? XD And I like the sound of the losers bracket, at least I might be able to salvage some pride out of this.

[cephalopod]

First 2 vids of Round 2 are up (nicsan/yoda and Urjak/Craaig)
Other 2 will come later.
123stw vs Nary is filmed though - most annoying match I've ever filmed.
Those flipper segments on your wedge Nary. That's all I'm gonna say.

[martymidget]

I can say I've not been very lucky- First pwn, and now in the losers bracket I'm against click. I need to find a four leaf clover XD
