Oh... trick the sensors. LOL that should probably be illegal.

It won't trick the trig sensors.
Only the rotation dependent ones.

Yes it will.

But unfortunately it would glitch other features of the enemy robots also, like Bullets stopping function on collision.

But you're saying that the position of the robot will be the same, and the  collision box is the same, but the actual graphic is a bit off?!?!
And it wouldn't be allowed. I think.

Size is 63x78.

Robot Shape is convex.

Robot is filled.

Everything checks out.

Confirm this so I can make final changes.

Needs verification.

Demosthenes, tell me if this is OK.

No, sorry no triangles.





The New Costume Ruling:
All robots must be rectangular taking up an area of 63x78 at the least, any parts beyond that are optional and do not have to be rectangular. The center of rotation must be at the center of the rectangular "base".


I've taken a long hiatus, but I still visit sometimes. Give me some time to answer any messages you post on my projects!

Re: Artificial Intelligence Contest

Sine when was it 63x78!!! I THOUGHT IT WAS 68x73! is this an accident?
Can my robot have corners like this while being 68x73?

WHAT THE HELL

Stop changing the rules! This is getting to the point where I will simply NOT BOTHER to change my robot to suit your needs.

Triangles SHOULD BE ALLOWED, as circles are. (or were, before you changed it)

Maybe if you actually made up your mind about the rules to start with then we wouldn't have had these problems. I do not see why triangles are illegal. There is nothing wrong with triangles.

You should just have pre-set robot costumes.

There is really no 24:00, woops  sad
Well midnight tonight anyway.

Yes, I had pre-set robots until people complained enough that I changed that rule.


Sorry if you do not like the rules, but they are the final rules and nothing (foreseeable) will change them so learn to live with them or leave the competition.
