That would actually be kind of interesting. Because then it will scare the creator of the oposing bot because they have no idea what is happening however, it will not effect the outcome of the battle. |

I have about 8 split across 6 weight classes, so yeah. Tell as many large building/scripting groups as you can! |
|
|
Maybe you could just split the weight classes into 3 or 4. |

It would be a bit uneven. I think if we just ask large groups to enter, it'll get big enough. |
|
|
Hmm... try posting in the WWC, scripters, clans and guilds, and ROBLOX talk.

F scripters. Scripters is full of nothing but trolls, the only people there who have any idea how to script are the moderators. |
|
|
At lest some of them do understand how to script quite well. However most of them have no idea how to actually have a nice conversation with the rest of their kind. |

You're sadly mistaken. Scripters has absolutely nothing to do with scripting these days, if you can sound semi-intelligent, they'll let you in. |
|
|
Most of them perhaps, I still like to believe that at least a couple of them know what they are doing. I don't like typing on a keyboard standing up and holding the keyboard. I tend too make a lot more typos. |

I would love to do a virtual version of the Sumo Bots I did in High School but I'm not that great with Lua, or any other language for that matter. I'm much better at the arts and construction than programming. Yes I know that "technically" Lua is not programming. |
|
|
Bump.
I bumped for ya lol. And yea, it's true that, sound semi-intelligent, they'll let you in. I did that, they let me in. Most of them know alot about scripting, but all they do is just do maths, and coroutines and all that crap.

I'mma enter tommorow. I'm using my phone right now, and I need to make MAJOR updates to my current bots. As you can see, my bots are obviously like short-sighted bugs with no intention of violence whatsoever. Visit my Bot Wars BETA place to check 'em out.
Tommorow, I'm going to add different functions to my bot such as "ram", "push", "confuse" etc. GO SUMOBOT USE TAIL WACK! Lolpokemon. I'll also need to work on enemy-finding. |
|
|
Oh nice. How would you make ram, push, confuse work? I was gonna add similar functions to my bot: Scan, Home-In, Push. So, scan would be activated when the bot has no enemies, and if it founds, it moves to home-in, home-in would be a really fast striking phase, making sure it goes to it's target accurately, and then, once it's near it's target, it starts to push. Push just basically makes the bot stronger at holding ground.
But I can't get it to work, so my bot just finds an enemy and just goes to it. Lol.

Basically, well, this is how mine works...
while wait(0.1) do
raycast stuff
if hit then
throttle = 1, advance enemy
else
steer = 1, keep searching
end
end
I'm going to add something like this:
function ram()
throttle = 1
wait(3)
throttle = -1
wait(3)
throttle = 0
end
function confuse()
steer = 1
wait(1)
steer = -1
throttle = 1
wait(1)
throttle = -1
wait(1)
steer = 0
throttle = 0
end
Then it would be random, like
if math.random(1,3) == 1 then
confuse()
else
ram()
end |

For some reason, my bots don't work on the ring...I'm going to try and figure out why. |
