I was thinking about making a game much like Battle Bots, but on the computer. U would build your bot and then fight them against other peoples..... I was wondering if anyone has ever thought on the dynamic of a situation? I am having a hard time coming up with the designed method... in other words, cant figure how to design them... Thinking about making them out of many thousand maybe 10,000 pre-defined units, each with thier own function.... maybee even user-definable ''blocks''..... user defined blocks would be hard to do though because they would be hard to regulate.... Thanx ahead... looking forward to some replys

Don''t know if this really fits to your problem, bur maybe you should have a look at Robocode

it is similar, but i would like to be able to also programm the actual physically simulated structure. RoboCode only you allows u to program it, not design how it moves, how it attacks, etc. Does look good for how to model the brain, though thanx for the link

I remember also of another game where you could program the AI of a bot and have it go against another bot, but in it you couldn''t actually create the bot. The game was BattleBugs..

They''ve already made a BattleBots video game. Too late.

In addition to what was already mentioned, here are a couple games that are pretty much what you''re talking about Tazzel. You can take a look at them to help you with your own design.
