You can use Spinner for spinners, I didn't know this, but I always use Omni.
And your slide that talks about wiring the spinner to forward if it has a flipper? Omni can have both weapons independently (ie not wiring a disc to 'Forward'), hence why it's called Omni, and wiring the spinner to forward may really mess up a bots performance.Yeah, but I've done this and it means you don't have to worry about Bindings when wiring the spinner with the forward control and the robot always uses the forward control and it's never messed up the performance for me because it's a spinner and has no spring action weapons.

You're still completely unnecessarily suggesting wiring a spinner to the drive - in a way that if the bot stops moving to attack, the weapon will stop too. I don't know if you've been through Philetbabe's AI Chart but I would recommend going through it to help improve your guide as this is currently what I'd recommend to anybody trying to learn how to AI.Send me a link. I can't find it.

SKBT, instead of saying "Learn how to AI" (which first of all I can because I've proved it by doing this AND my series) but say how I can improve. Not by making an invalid point.You don't know how to use Omni correctly and are misleading people as Craaig stated. Omni supports both types of weapons already, so there is there is no need at all to wire the spinners to the drive motors, which would mean if the bot stopped driving for whatever reason, your weapon is no longer moving.

And I can AI!!!!!
It's nice to see someone take a different approach to presenting tutorial on this site.Winrar, WinZip or Jzip. Thanks by the way.
Also what do I need to open this file?
no offense but... why do we need 5 different AI tutorials ?This was my version. I don't know a tutorial with the AI features I included. I'm not saying there isn't one, I just haven't seen one.
My input:
There are two exact same slides ('AIing the robot')- oh, I must've missed that.
Overlapping issues (text going on top of pictures or pictures on top of text)- this may be a glitch as I made this on OpenOffice. What are you viewing this on?
Make the screenshots lighter (covered by Craaig, looks like you took a picture with your phone and not screenshot)- I took all of them with Snipping tool and Print screen. Don't know why they're so dark.
Text coming of the slide (covered by Craaig)- as I said on the overlapping issue. I tried hard to avoid these two things
Unnecessary capital letters (one example is on Craaig's screenshot, another example is putting a capital of 'Place' after a comma.)- my bad
There's a title template on slide 3- I'll delete it. It shouldn't show on the slide while playing it though.
You've bullet-pointed numbers that you already gave your own bullet-points for
'For a Rammer robot, this is all a robot needs. Skip to' Was this meant to be added to? Does it mean 'Skip two', as in two slides? Or was it meant to say 'Skip to *page number/name*'- oh crap, I forgot to edit this once I'd done the slide
Keep a format for font size. Looks better on the eyes and more professional. If you can't fit all the text on to one slide with your chosen format, just make a part 2 on the next slide.- ok
'Thanks to Trovaneer' Ha ha. Just check your spelling and grammar in places. Another example is that you spelled 'none' without the 'e'. -I'll change this too
These are small things (in the most part) but when you list them like this, it doesn't look good. A presentation that doesn't present itself very well just looks untidy and puts the person reading it off and they'll close it down thinking some kid made it with no knowledge of AIing. I don't think that about you but random people from outside of GTM might.- Ok. Thanks
This is just feedback, so don't think I am bashing you, as I am just telling you what you need to improve.- I wouldn't think that of you anyway. Thanks for the feedback.
Okay, really quick feedback:
1) Why are the pictures so dark?- I've covered this with yug1tom. When I made them, they were really light. It may be something with converting the presentation
2) A lot of your text goes off the side of each slide.- again, may be a glitch. I downsized a lot of text so the whole piece of text fitted on the slide
3) You could probably do with pointing out the other functions in the bindings, as if someone tries to write a line based on what you've given, they'll miss quite a lot.- I don't quite understand this. Could you please pm me about this?
This image sums up the first 2 issues, for references
Why would you use Jaydee's AI guide in the first place, lmaoDo you mind, seriously?
The one by Ian is amazing but only covers the basics.So that makes it better for beginners.
Alright, so I've looked at Yug1tom's post from last time, and here is my final AI guide if nothing is wrong now:
[I'll modify this when I upload it]
Why would you reserve a post for posting/upload in the future ? Just post when you finish uploading it, or when you upload it.I thought someone was going to post how to improve this. I was improving it today and just when I was just about to upload it I lost the finished file and I had started to post this.
May I ask why? I don't know much about OpenOffice but surely PowerPoint is a better option and it is probably the reason me and Craaig had overlapping screenshots and text floating off-screen. Also, anyone who wants to learn how to AI from this guide will most likely have PowerPoint and not OpenOffice and will encounter the same problems I did.Because I don't have PowerPoint.
