The original Scrapheap Challenge was pitched virtually exactly two years ago. How about that, huh?
RULESGame - DSL 2.2
Weight - Lightweight
Realistic Rule - DSL Standard
32 entrants, but will extend if there's enough interest. (See battle rules.)
Two entry robots per person per game.
Only in game glitches are allowed - eFFe Glitching, Axle Loading and Snapper Loading.
If you can't AI I will do it for you, just don't complain about it if your robot doesn't win. I haven't played RA2 for about 1000 years so I'm a bit rusty with AI stuff now.
You can't enter until I have received and accepted your robot.
BUILDING RULESLightweight-down class robots. Anything under 249.0kg. (I won't stop you entering an AW or a BW, but it's your funeral.)
Only in game glitches are allowed - eFFe Glitching, Axle Loading and Snapper Loading.
No external editing at all - BFE, AAM and so on.
Robots with tracks get no weight cushion, as if anyone would use tracks for this.
No scuttlers, crawlers, walkers, or SNS robots.
Multibots are banned.
You can upgrade your robot or send a new one as much as you like until signups end.
Nothing from Cheatbot2, you know that.
You MAY NOT use more than one of the same component on your robot, this includes all batteries, wheels, weapons, everything.
This means that using 2 extenders of the same length IS NOT allowed, but using different lengths IS allowed.
BATTLE RULES3 minute fights.
Scrapheap Challenge Arena (Official Robot Arena 2 Tournament Arena with a totally boss skin.)
Hazards on.
If a robot havoks then I will restart the match. I will keep restarting until there is a havok-free match. Fights with havoks will not be shown.
Single elimination bracket, head to head, no rumbles or melees.
Judging will be done by points scored during the match, as is custom for Standard tournaments.
