After the fix command has been issued, the car should return back to the same speed it was traveling before the command was issued.
I have so much work here
But excited.
Greetings!
We have released a new version of the starter pack.

Bug Fixes
- Fixed bug where EMPs don’t get picked up when in the middle of players path for that round
- Fixed bug where using a boost, lizard or oil powerup without having one causes the game-engine to crash
Thanks to everyone who helped with pull requests and reported issues!
Please let us know if you find anything odd in the *balancing of this config, we are open to tweak until *Tuesday 14 July 2020 @ 18h00. This deadline will solidify the final tweaks before the upcoming tournaments.
Thanks for the new version. Is the map’s object generation fixed? i.e. vertical walls and consecutive mud objects
Nothing mentioned on the release notes.
Looking at a comparison between 3.0 and 3.1 here, it does not look like it.
Hello @marvijo, we haven’t released new map generation yet. We are still iterating on it, based on internal reviews and feedback from the players.
Hi, I’d just like some clarification on something - will our submissions for the third phase be used for the finals? Or is there a separate submission for the finals with different rules? Sorry if this has been answered somewhere but I couldn’t tell from the tournament info page at https://challenge.entelect.co.za/tournaments
Check the description on the tournament “Vrrrpa! Wanna dice chaana?”
- Final Deadline: 23:59 08 August 2020
We have been meaning to move that to the top of the page or somewhere easier to find. Anyway that is the last point in time to submit a bot for the entire 2020 challenge. We will use the same submissions for the “Carmageddon” finals, so you won’t be able to change your bot after that final deadline.
I feel like we’re running out of time and there is still quite a few bugs and issues making it hard to develop our bots
Hello everyone, the player portal has been updated with the latest game engine.

Release notes:
Bug Fixes
- Fixed bug where player can accelerate beyond max allowed speed (based on damage) after using a boost
- Fixed bug where when boost expires player speed jumps to 9 regardless of damage
- Fixed bug where player collisions cause player starting blocks that round to get counted twice:
- if player on top of powerup they would get another power up
- if player on top of obstacle they would get damaged again
- Fixed bug where turning into a cyber truck did not trigger a collision with the cyber truck:
- please note expected behavior is that player ends up behind cyber truck as per rules regarding colliding with a cyber truck
- Fixed bug where colliding with a cyber truck could potentially cause player damage to exceed cap (5)
- Fixed bug where if player moves to block where cyber then gets placed and fixes next round, player then collides with cyber truck. Now player will be unaffected by cybertruck
- Fixed buggy behavior of EMP power up:
- EMP did not affect both players the same way
- EMP did not stop player hit in their tracks as specified in rules
- Please note the expected effect of being hit by an EMP is as below
- player hit does not move that round
- player hit has speed reduced to 3 if moving faster than 3 speed
Thanks to everyone who helped with pull requests and reported issues!
Please note we are still in an effective code freeze and thus any updates made are reserved for bugs that impede players ability to compete fairly against one another or use the mechanics as stated in the game rules.
All the best in the final stretch!!!
Thanks for the new release! Can we expect the map generation (percentages) to stay unchanged now that the code freeze is in effect?
I believe that was confirmed somewhere else here.

Bug Fixes
- Fixed bug where player 2’s speed would not be reduced to 3 if hit by an emp and player 2 chose to use an action that would increase their speed. The expected behavior (which now occurs) is a player hit by an emp does not move that round and have their speed reduced to 3 regardless of what action they chose to perform that round.

Isn’t there like a section in the Geneva Convention about making people wait to long for a long anticipated event?
Or something?
