Upgrades to bots
by grimlock (dinobot) transformer · in ThinkTanks · 02/06/2004 (9:37 pm) · 54 replies
What about adding upgrades to the bots like when you get a speeding power up you shot flames from the rear of your tank.or what about a tornado moving about and if it hits your tank it sucks you up and sends you flying.snow storm or even a flooded area like a lake and the bots can float across it or drive on the bottom but slower cause of the water.multiple colors or hot rod bots.maybe even slow moving clouds but will support bots so you could drift across and drop in on your enemy.

I was thinking it would be cool if there were nuclear power ups that whenever you fired it it would destroy tanks in a 20 foot radias that would be cool. Or a guided missle power up.

The nuke is possible. I'll see what I can do. The guided missile, however, is going to take some SERIOUS programming knowledge. I'm gonna give it a go, though.

Slow down, there! You obviously seem to think modding can do anything. It can't. If it could, I could make this the greatest game in existance. I have some sweet ideas, but it's impossible to implement them. You have some good ideas but you have to understand that we can't do EVERYTHING. I doubt even -Z- could manage it.
Sorry, but that's how it is. Oh, and can you change your name please? I find it offencive and I'm sure many others do too.

P.S. I'm going to start posting on GarageGames again. Anon seems to have disappeared for good, as far as I can see.

Sorry about the handel but it's a attitude.would you change your handel if I would ask?no,and you would use choice words telling me but I wont do that.and by the way if you see me in CTF,the way I play is different then others.I play to keep the other team from holding the flag(scoring points)and cause headaches and revenge towards me so the other team comes after me and my team can steal the flag and score points.

I thought of another idea if it is possible.I see people changing from bot to ufo to big tanks in play.would it be possible to add a doorway(like when we reload ammo)to change random into anther form of bot.I dont know the first thing about programming but alot of you people do.tell you what,I'll keep comming up with ideas and you tell me if it's possible or not,thanks

How do you put people on /IGNORE.

I would happily change my username if the person had a good reason. I have a good reason to ask you to change your name. It makes you look like one of those idiots who join forums just to piss people off. Remember, choosing your username is like changing your real name. People will know you by and get impressions from your name. Would you want your best friend to start calling you 100% asshole every time he/she sees you? I think not.
Nathan and Spunky are know by those names in TT. They have a good reason to "put you on /ignore". You obviously didn't understand what my first post here said. Please try and understand the limits of modding before you ask people to do stuff for you.
To finish off:
The Brain (SA): has put 100%asshole on /IGNORE
Wait a sec, that reminds me:
@Louis
Download the ignore script. This will give you the power to block chat from individuals in a game of TT. Full instructions are given at the download location, which can be found at the following link:

Grow up? Look who's talking! At least I'm mature enough to know the difference between funny and offencive.
1. /IGNORE blocks chat from others but it doesn't stop chat from going out to others.
2. So you're doing a "good job"? Definitely a troll. Get off the forums.
3. My name is not Brian, it's The Brain. Brain for short. Brian is not my REAL name either.

You may feel like being a jerk gives you power, but in the long run, it just makes you a jerk....a lonely jerk.
You might want to change your name, it really does make people not want to be friends with you, and it is really immature.

100% Asshole, You say you are new to computers..... Might want to learn the lesson that it is much more fun..MUCH MORE fun to be friends than be a jerk.You may feel like being a jerk gives you power, but in the long run, it just makes you a jerk....a lonely jerk.

. I warn you in 5 months this army will be the most recognized army on TT (no offense SA). So i advise you to join which stands for A** Blasting Tanks. Please join, if you do want to join tell me and later on put in front in of your name. I tell you you won't regret becoming part of this army and why reject fame, power, and respect. In all do respect i do not mean to put down any armyies. is for the good of all, yet mess with this army and get ready for all hell to break lose, i already have some people on my list that are "ready to test a bit of hell" lol. Please join, everyone in this army will be held with high respect from me and Wheelbin, unlike other armies i have joined, the leaders of those armies rarely paid attention to their sodiers, or members. Army leaders do not be heart felt if your army members leave your amry, they will be leaving to a better cause, a better army, and will be joining sort of a family. Girls are also welcome to join. Anyone can join.
Truly,

Hey Brain you said you were able to put nuclear power ups and guided missle power ups, is that really possible, and would you be able to do that in regular games instead of MOD's. You would really rock if you did create those power ups. Oh... one more thing i have to admit it is pretty immature to put 100% a**hole for your name but if thats how you want it its a free country, i mean game. Oh...one more thing! How would you people, yes i am talking to SA and 100%, how would you people like to join the most powerful, best to be army Truly,

Working on them. Updates shortly!

If you change the weapons it counts as a mod so technically you can't have those powerups in the normal game.Working on them. Updates shortly!

, you forgot about that. Oh...and thanx for the info on the power-ups. Don't take it too personaly about joining ABT. Although i would like you to join, as a matter of fact i would like everyone to join, including you Ben. What do you think about guys. Please tell me as soon as possible, oh and if you want to join, you can stop being part of SA, or you can still be part of SA (this is for SA members only).

Well one item that I asked about is possible,187 prouded it.I played in a game yesterday that would let you change into ufo or other bots by going through a doorway the same doorway if you were to be reloading so thank you 187 for showing me that it is possible.hi tank girl,I don't mind if people think I am a jerk.like they say opinions are like assholes,everybody has one.and I am in the game to have fun not make friends.it's not like we are ever going to get together someday.ok brain,your handel bothers me cause it makes you sound like you are the smartest person alive and we all know thats not true.and it sounds like you are better then everyone else.so are you going to change it,not.I could say things like this about every handel out there by why.in the game you are who you want to be and in the game I like playing dirty(only to the other team)unless someone shoots me when no one else is a round then I take it personal and yes I will come after you like smoking j.he has shot at me many times when we were team mate just because I killed him by accident.and tanker girl,I am very nice to the ladies in the game as long as they don't cross me and if you want to be on assholes list you better just chill out and enjoy the game.I though about being on a team but sorry I cant unless you are starting a team for combat veterens only.then I would be happy to join that army.you see I am a gulf war vet(the first one) and I know some things about war and war games.the problem is that the u.s. plays be rules and everyone we fight don't.so then I play the way I used to play war games,dirty.or like a asshole(100%)
#17
1:play as dirty as you want, the team name alone expresses that(Ass Blasting Tanks) ABT.
2:be loyal to the army, you will be treated fairly and just and your opinions will be highly regarded by me and Wheelbin.
3: If you jion in time you can be made 2nd in rank, there is only 3 members of the army so far, i will post that later on.
4: If you don't join the army somtime or another get ready to taste a bit of hell
02/10/2004 (6:57 pm)
I guess i this army is for vets. i have never had this question asked before. why does it matter its just a game, but we have few rules. 1:play as dirty as you want, the team name alone expresses that(Ass Blasting Tanks) ABT.
2:be loyal to the army, you will be treated fairly and just and your opinions will be highly regarded by me and Wheelbin.
