Heh - I ran one of these ages ago.

Question:  Must the sprite center be set to the geometric center of the shape?

Is there any limit to how quickly turns can be made?

btw my robot cannot be hit even with guided missiles, super amazing technology.

Just wait...

I will change it to
60 frames!!!!!!
Thus a perfect robot and projectile will be able to close 120 pixels if you see what I mean.

... I'm pretty sure it's frames.

I doubt what you're saying, because if the projectiles can move at 12 steps/pixels per frame, and the robots can move at 10 steps/pixels per frame, than there must be an issue. Its possible that you're correct if either:

A) You have a very tiny robot, which is not allowed because it has to meet the costume size specification.

B) You haven't thought about heat seeking projectiles 

mine shoots heat seekers and can't be hit by them 

more like position seekers as sprites don't produce heat.

Mine will have all of this and more and better    I've already done some crazy work on it.

u shouldn't have asked the first question, now everyone will use it so he'll have to take it out.

No limit to turning.
It must be in the geometric center.
Don't worry deatheater already pointed this out to me, I was going to change it I just forgot.

So:

The rotational center must be in the geometrical center of your sprite!!!

can you use point towards with a sprite on your team because what if i want like a sensor to point to my sprite.

Yeah.

ok just checking

Oh, and mine is finished if you wish to try it.

How is it possible to do it without the banned blocks?

I agree.

Nice!

I'm working on making mine look prettiful.

I've already done the hard part (pixel perfect location sensing using two distances)

I thought you are given pre-made costumes to prevent size cheating...

...No.

Demosphenes has made an example costume and I am basing my robot off of the size of that.

Yes, that, or you can actually make your own robot, but it has to be larger than the minimum required size.

Cool. I think mine will work, seeing as its just a brute force finder, and then a simple shoot towards me type deal. Its very simple.

What do you mean, a 'brute force finder'?

Wait.... Is it okay if the sensor is a large circle, 100x100?

...Sensors don't matter.

But who needs sensors, lol?

For sensing area and for dodging. Paired with a dot that senses all around, it pwns.
