Back by little demand, it's time for another Wheely Tag Tournament. You can thank Badnik for this one.


Rules:


Sign-Ups:


Send your bots to me on here or on Discord: Mr. Kinch#9001

Happy building, you have until the 25th for final versions to be sent in. The tournament will commence on the 26th at 8 PM GMT. If you'd like to have a substitute driver if you cannot make it, that is fine. Please have it be someone who is not part of the tournament.

Post by: 090901 on January 04, 2020, 10:04:59 PM
considering the fact I've done 4 way rumbles with HW extenders bots with kix hosting all the way in croatia with little lag I don't really feel that lighter weightclasses help really, only time I could see if is it you are running a computer and connection combo that's like minimum/not even minimum and are just trying to make it playable. crashing yeah maybe but got damn I hate building lws

btw mould you've done test battle n sh** to make sure you can host with 4 ppl connected right? otherwise we might need that GK bailout for reals  :dumb)

PS ty4er flail rammers are gay and need to go away!

Start sending in robots. Please make sure that you read all rules before building and then when you're sending in your robots.

IRL style builds are fine as long as they fit in with the DSL-S rule set.

I'd like meme'y stuff to be kept to a minimum. It's old now. Thanks.

How does this whole Parsec thing work? Seems like a lot of co-ordination and timezone issues.

You pretty much have the just of it.

Parsec works by linking peer-to-peer. In the tests that we've done, it works pretty well even cross-continent.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tr7lKt44TIQ

Download Parsec which can be found here: https://parsecgaming.com/ (I seriously hope that none of you are still on XP, it's been nearly 2 decades. Please upgrade.)
Once I share my PC via a link, you can join to it. I can then give you control of specific keys so that you can use your robot.
To save bandwidth, instead of having everyone join at the same time, I might be able to stream it/record it simultaneously.
We then rotate each 4 people in and out for each match.

You pretty much have the just of it.

If we're able to run the same size tournaments in GMod that run on for longer, we can do it here.


If you'd like to test Parsec and see how it works, @me in Discord and we can test it out.

Classic meme.

Nicky sent me two robots and one of them had CF. We went over this in RA2 Central. He then asked me if anything needed to be changed :P


No one has sent me anything else. Reier has been the only one to message me about it and I still wish him all the best.

I'm happy to go ahead and host it but I'ma need a few more bots to actually run something here.
