Since 2.5 is coming out I thought I'd give clickbeetle's overvolting script one last hurrah since nobody really used it.

General Rules
-DSL 2.4 IRL HW
-8 Entrants
-Electric Arena 2
-Double Elim Bracket

Gimmick
Your bot must use the overvolting mechanic in some way. Don't enter something that isn't affected by the overvolting change.
You must use the provided version of the game in order to compete. Do NOT download clickbeetle's file yourself and try to patch it over top of your existing copy. I have already installed everything correctly in the standalone copy located right beneath this message.

Watch clickbeetles video on how overvolting works below


Building Rules
-I retain the right to reject any bot for any reason
-Robots that use servos or motorized hammers must be AI'd beforehand.
-One bot per person
-Multibots and walkers/shufflers are banned

FIGHT RULES
-1 havok reset allowed per match
-3 min fight
-Judges Decision will be based on Damage Aggression and Control
-If a robot has all of its wheels removed then it will be considered knocked out
-A manual countdown will be initiated if a bot cannot show controlled movement for more than 20 seconds

PSA: Turns out clicks overvolting script only allows for overvolting all motors at the same time rather than just drive or weapon so make sure to use the omni control board when building your bots.

After a quick survey on interest, the field has been reduced to only 8 but the tournament will still run. Signups are now open first come first serve.

Due to a clear lack of interest and over a week of signups without a single entrant, I think it's safe to say this tournament won't get off the ground. Therefore, I have made the decision to cancel VOLTAGE.
This thread can now be closed.
