I feel like this should have been saved for a B league competition.

Long time lurker, first time poster.

I finished it with 300 dollars remaining, although I think I may have used a jackhammer, but I don't know what those are.

Where can I find rules for the competitions?

[Votart Silak]

Guys, very good results! My POC is 1094, but it has been made for 10 minutes!

Hi gringopapo, welcome

If you click the link below you get a zipfile with some bugs in AR2 beta, one of them is the jackhammer.

I'm sure markmadras is going to contact you to explain the rules and all.

[markmadras]

Hi gringopapo, and welcome to AR, I'm sending you an introduction PM which will explain how the contests are run and a few other matters of interest and some info on the Jackhammer.

While I'm here, 1300+

That file with the AR2 bugs will be very confusing to a beginner without a written explanation. IMO, all a beginner needs is details of the Jackhammer showing what they can and cannot do using welding to create energy. I made an example level showing this and will send it to all beginners from now on.

EDIT, here it is, let me know what you think

[rob]

Looks good, I assume you also added a little explanation about what's going on?'

[markmadras]

Yes, I have been sending out an explanation to all new members for some time now which explains all about AR2 Beta1, etc. and I have added a bit about the Jackhammer
