I thinking have a gamemode for multiplayer monday. The game mode is that you have a currency (crops, blocks, etc.) And you can buy a bot. For instance, the greenie can be 10 potatoes and the farm bot will be 80 or something like that. You can set it in 1v1 tournaments or 2v2s, whatever you want.

[@TheRealFlavuh]

I think the reason that the other bots aren't affected by fall damage and the Farmbots are affected by it is because the lighter you are, the slower you fall, and the smaller bot types have less weight meaning they are being pulled down by gravity much slower whereas the Farmbot is huge causing it to be pulled down by gravity much quicker, making much more of an impact on itself.

You guys should do strategy Multiplayer Monday in creative where you guys get limited amount bots from the starting and fight in a designated battlefield with spud guns already set up (like turrets) in a castle siege or tower defense (it's your pick) but both teams will have an army (bots army) at there disposal, like if you guys want him to do it. Ask if anyone needs a more detailed explanation of how this works.

Dev: add bot capsule for people to try to build resistive creation against them Players: make bots battle with elaborated strategies

[@hyperzetton5822]

multiplayer Monday but its bot wars where the bots cost points and you can only use a certain amount of points that go up each round. After each round you can add on more bots with the extra points and change your formation. You can't change you formation mid battle or just before the battle starts, It has to be in the building time which is 7~10 minutes.

Scrapman SCIENCE WITH BOTS

[@theamateurestgamer1302]

I'm decently early today! Of course, today is Day 11 of asking Scrapman to play Minecraft for real.

[@triviavanille62]

Multiplayer Monday idea: Bot Wars! 1v1(or 2v2 if you have 4 players) battles. Each player (or team) spawns an army of bots, in whatever formation they want, and paints them. You must be able to fit them all in an area of a certain dimensions (yall choose those, I dont know the dimensions of the spawners cause I dont play the game myself). These spawn areas are positioned such that there is a battlefield of the exact same dimensions between them. For an extra challenge, play in a map that has uneven terrain. Each player starts with 30 points. Totebots cost 1 point, haybots cost 3 points, tape bots cost 5 points, and farm bots cost 10 points. No explosive tape bots. If you are doing 2v2, you can spawn 1 woc per person to distract the bots, but remember this may distract your own units as well. You do not have to use all your points if you do not want to. Play it tournament-style, mix who goes against who each battle (mix up the teams if 2v2). 1 point for a win, player with the most wins after everyone has fought wins the round. Play 3 or 5 rounds, your choice. Each round, everyone gets 5 more spawn points than the previous round. The winner of a round gets an additional 5 more points for the next round. The player with the most overall wins at the end of the game wins.

[@DieKonkelaar227]

What I wanna know is why he hasn't spawned a bunch of tapebots and then flew over with a cardboard plane yet.

[@nikore90]

Floor and the pillars are getting in the way of the bots. You should attach the capsules to ceiling instead and only have one pillar.

[@steeljawX]

Scrapman, you went on about battlefield tactics like it only applies to ranged warfare.... 4 totebots can take out a haybot if you have the 4 surround the 1 because a haybot has 2 attacks; a sweep for "normal" damage and a thrust for "higher" damage. If it thrusts through 2 or more totebots, it gets the advantage as it'll probably end up killing them. So when you pit 20 vs 7 and have them mash head on, you're giving the battlefield neutrality advantage to the haybots. Every bot has the disadvantage of having a limited attack range, be it a a single direction or 20 degrees to 160 degrees-ish in front of them or the red tape bots stupid blast radius, so having multiple attacks coming in from all angles ends a bot faster than having all the attacks coming in at its own angle of attack.

[@thedude4039]

22:13 Should have put a tape bot in there. He would've felt like Tallahassee from Zombieland!

[@WynterLegend]

Dude, Multiplayer Monday: Robot Rampage Race At parts of the race, bots are released ahead of the trigger, so you have to fight your way through if you're in the lead. Final one has a quartet of Red Tapebots on terrain-made towers (so they don't target their towers) and a pair of Farmbots dropped into the road.

[@gerrard1144]

heres an idea for multiplayer monday: a bot war where each team must make the best strategy to win, to win you have to be the last one standing

Tip:If you use a flat world, then you will get way less lag with way more bots, I know this from experience.

[@thenerd4751]

An arena that releases bots in waves and you have time beforehand in the arena to prepare from scratch. There would be trees, rocks, some water, and some other somewhat farmable natural resources, then you have to survive either as long as you can on your own or you have to clear the whole thing together I believe this would need health integration into creative though but I hope you keep this in mind in case they do!

[@thorvo9287]

MM IDEAS: -Tower defense with aggroall on a certain player and the rest try to defend the aggro player in their own made defenses -Home defense: each player makes a fort and the player stands in it with aggroall and see how fast a certain army of bots will get to you. This can be expanded by using traps to defend yourself. -something like totally accurate battle simulator: each player makes an army and faces the army of different players and see who made the best army. You can play around with different (imaginary) values for each bot. f.e. green bots are 1 point, scrap bots are 3, tape bot is 2, red tape bot is 4 and big guy is 8. and each round there will be a certain value limit for the army. This can be further expanded by not lining them up on 1 line but trying different formations etc... -'Zombie' survival game. players make cars, tanks,... and get aggroall on them and try to stay alive (keep moving, if a player can't move with his vehicule he is 'dead') as long as possible, the other players keep spawning bots until the survivor is dead. -air, water and land in 1 race, as the name suggests: a vehicle that can do all. Can of course be altered and for example only do land and water: an amphibian car.

As far as I tested the menu-build-area, everything that is able to move will be kind of frozen in the menu.

Multiplayer Monday idea here. find out how many bots you can spawn before it gets really laggy then split into teams of two and place you army around and area and whoever wins gets points ect. for example both teams get 5 haybots, 10 greenies and 3 tape bots. you could make an arena out of tier 3 metal if they dont attack that most the time and then whoever is the most strategic with their bots will win

[@BleachWizz]
