pybotwar is a fun and educational game where players
create computer programs to control simulated robots
to compete in a battle arena.

http://pybotwar.googlecode.com/


pybotwar uses pybox2d for the physical simulation,
and uses pygame and pygsear for the visualization.

pybotwar is released under GPLv3.


Changes in pybotwar-0.5:
- added tournament mode
- added explosive shells
- robots are now damaged by colliding with walls or other robots
- added damage sensor
- added gyro sensor
- added configurable cannon reload time
- added robot statistics database
- added time limit for robot startup/ initialization
- health bar changes color below 30% health
- fixed force/ torque possibly going over 100%
- fixed problem with non-integer force/ torque values
- each robot gets its own log file in test mode
- send robot errors to log file
- use optparse for cmd line options

Why is the doc folder empty?

Shouldn't you supply some hint on how the games works
and at least a rudimentary guide to robot design?

What version to you expect that will be in? 1.0? 10.0?

Could you inform us when you have something worth looking
at and not before so we don't have to waste our time?

What a bombastically stupid thing to say even for you "Menstrual
cycle". Sure, there is no documentation but maybe the creator meant
for this module to be used only by experienced Python programmers and
not script kiddies like yourself who need a four page tut just to code
up a hello world.py. If you are anything more than an amateur the
source code should be all the documentation you need to use this
module. If not, get on with your pathetic life!

Next time before you open your mouth, try to use those two brain cells
you have left up there and put together a reasonable and responsible
response that is more than just a cowardly put down. Now run along
little spam bot, i am sure one of the other thousands of groups you
post to can't wait for your triumphant return!

Can I assume from this that you intend killing yourself, on the grounds
that some 10 days ago you couldn't successfully use a windows compiled
help file?
