You can do anything you like in F1, the bots can be as nasty and devious as you wish.  

EDIT

Btw, if you don't want to keep quoting the last post just click on add reply at bottom rather than reply on post.

yes, not to sound rude or anything but I know, for me it just works better, because than you can be sure of whom I am replying to, not to mention its easier to reach

Sorry,  

I just tend to open my mouth before my brain kicks in!

I looked at your weblink and blog btw, are we talking Medieval 2? Those pictures look very familiar.

I wouldn't worry about it, it's not really a mass market game! More something for people with at least a cursory interest in AL or programming.
I've never had a friend take more than a cursory interest in the game, unless it's to stare at a running sim for a while and then ask if it means anything! LOL

Maybe if bots exploded into a mass of blood and mucous when they died, we could attract the more mainstream audience

Rofl, where's the option box?..

EDIT

Your bot works now Kage, along with all the other F2 bots!

I suggest you add a veg search routine so it doesn't just sit still if it can't see veg and another repro gene for when it's not fighting tie bots. A good test is if your bots can cope in a sim against just veg.

I already got the repro thing coded in for the next discerpo...but I don't know how to code it in so that it can beat those lethal veggies in an all out pitched melee combat?

(As posted in league settings by Nums), check that your costs are proportional and at 100%. unfortunately using the league settings in the latest DB version tends to set this at zero, meaning your bot won't get any reward for firing shots. Tick and untick the F1 settings option first so that it is as close to default as possible.

It's not a code fault, it's a settings fault and Eric is working on the problem as we speak.
