Destructo Bots 0.9.4 Beta Release

i just tried the latest version and i must say its good to see the claw working nicely

well done

I got a host where you can host the web client on.. to make it borwser based?

You know game doesn't use a lot of memory, so even download version is good. I don't see how browser based version increases player activity, but it increases our expenses 4 sure...

I already have hosting with unlimited data, the only limit I have is on the amount of server communications per second. I'll look into the browser based client and see if all the features I need are compatible.
I've been working on bluetooth connectivity for devices as of late, and am contemplating whether or not I should create a lobby. It would probably make players feel more connected I suppose and more of a community. Just it's quite a bit of work. I'll look into it more.

Do you supposed there is anyway you could update it through the game itself like Need For Speed World, or maybe even a smaller patch... it may no seems like a big file to you but to me it costs 20 minutes to download every time. If it's too much of a hassle then don't worry about it. Just thought it would be cool to have it update itself kind of.

Uhm, there was an update?

No, but just saying...

he means when there is an update, all you need to do is open the app and then it will update before it runs. I haven't played NFSW so i dont know exactly how it works but most other tools i have use this feature.

Yup, thanks for clearing that up SF

What are peoples opinions of the new arena?

That's why I asked if there was an update lol.
I suppose the question is whether the people want a new arena...

yeah... I ended up downloading the latest update thinking it was new and then realized I already downloaded it...

A new arena? I'm all for it, maybe another design comp that people actually participate in?

Yes !

I'm referring to the new look of the current arena and your opinions comparing it to what I had originally.

Ahh, in that case the new one looks much better.

Agreed, but it could still use some work IMO. If you would like, maybe I could try my hand at making some textures and models (as long as blends work for it).

I think Draken's native files are Blender. Unfortunately I was unable to import them into 3Ds Max.

i came to this topic from here:
https://rrsurvivors.forumotion.com/t722-lets-code-our-own-robotrage#18510

i want to ask would you think to make online (web) version i can help if you want or if you wont i am thinking about it if i can find someone help with models.

Okay I tested latest version
Didn't notice any change in arena design, was too busy firing mah mini-gun...
Whenever I try to paint something with square or circle tool it auto undoes all I paint with them on next click...

As mentioned earlier it's not a new arena but a reskin. While before it was brick and mortar, now it's more blue looking.
I noticed the other day that there were some issues with the painting and have now resolved them. Next time I do a build you'll receive the fix.
Sorry builds have been a bit sparse lately. I'm crazy busy at work lately so haven't had much time to do the game. My current projects are Bluetooth and a lobby.

Lobby, yay! That will make me come play more often!

Aww yissss, thanks for all the hard work Draken!

It's really good game, I would play if there was someone else online, lobby sounds great  
Also I played vs bots a bit and saw that I couldn't damage them with flame thrower & laser cannon, what's wrong  with those, there should be no lag and I am sure I didn't miss...
What worked the best for me is mini-gun as front weapon, homing missiles at tower and land mines at back...

I have an idea, make a second link for this RR, (DB) I allready lost the link and I always log into RR3 from the forum, maybe that will get you a full lobby

I'm not sure what you mean... are you saying I should add a button that directs you to the download for DB on the forum header?

right I forgot it's not an online game, well yes, - download here - by all means
