Hmmm, well we should atleast fix shootval instant killing, but maybe ties aren't so overpowered...
Dunno just felt that a bot like Locust shouldn't even be able to get a league spot, it's only advantage is the way it eats alge (The swarming looks cool, but isn't realy usefull unless you heavily outnumber the oponent).
I'll just stay away from using that exploit from now on then, unless I have something able to beat EtchII. Working on that F2 rape bot anyway...
Still seems like there should be some handicap to ties when used as a weapon, shorter range on shots, or vision inhibitting, or something to balance them out a litle. Doesn't have to turn everything upside down, just a small handicap of some sort. And I still don't think it takes 30 cycles to drain an alge with counter leeching, seems like no more than 4 or 5 to me, that's a litle fast to drain 3000 nrg, maybe I'm just getting confused by the changes in sim speed during a combat...
