IntroductionWell, FaceMonger24 originally brought the idea up on the suggestions forum, On this thread.
We talked about it on the chat a little bit, and i thought, what the heck lets get this party
... [More]
started. This is an Un-Official FGL project, maybe when the FGL guys give the okay it will be official.
Dominant EngineThe Dominant engine in use at the moment would be the one developed by Mcgrew. You can find a link to the download on the Engine Samples Page.
So, what do I need to enter?You need intelligence, programming skills, and the ability to take a beating from Mcgrew (just kidding, really!) You also and most importantly need to download Template.as which is a template specially constructed for your use.
After downloading this, you must sign up to the competition - by posting in this thread.
Now halt! First things first: rename Template.as to YourBotName.as (e.g Mcgrew.as.) Now, open up this file and replace the word Template with YourBotName. (Needs to be replaced at line 3 and line 5.)
Also, change the name of your bot (by modifying robotName on line 8.) And change loadIcon("images/icon.png") to loadIcon("images/youriconname.png"). The icons will be stored in an image folder on this webserver (send the icons to me.)
How do I submit my bot?Send a PM to one of the listed comilers on the Compilers Page, with a link to your icon and a link to your class. It's that simple!
What bout' da benjamins(money)?This is a non-profit project and is for the fun and pleasure of FGL members. However since this is an FGL related project we might try to promote, in some way users' accounts and/or games.
What about little ole AS2?The project is gonna be as3 of course. But we cant leave out the as2 community, sooooo, if anyone wants to be AS2 - AS3 converter, put your name and a link to your fgl account on the AS2 Converters Page [Less]
