Hey, everybody! Got a question, hoping one of you can help me out.

I've been trying to get some moving targets rigged up for the shooting range. I've started putting some stuff together, but I don't know anything about programming them to...you know, move.

Tried wishing for something to get the job done, but...well.

W-Wow!! Robots! [ He's super impressed because robots have been forbidden in his world. He shakes his head to get back on topic. ] Ah, I don't know any programmers. I could ask around though.

You don't have to go to that trouble, I'm hoping this will smoke somebody out for me.

Thanks, though!

[He watches the robots for a while]

I image they would. [pause] What exactly do you need them to do?

[video]

[doorsnotwindows]

I just want to build some targets that can move around. Some kind of random element would be better than just going back and forth.

And I want them to not talk to me, be smart, or be cute like these guys, because...well, you know, it's for shooting at.

[patternprophet]

...I might be able to help you, then. You just want a random, movable target?

[video]

[doorsnotwindows]

Yeah, pretty much!

[always_foreign]

They won't break when they get hit?

[Video]

[doorsnotwindows]

I don't know, and I don't really want to find out! They're too cute for that.

[Video]

[always_foreign]

You would prefer something that is not cute?

[Video]

[doorsnotwindows]

I'd prefer something I don't have to feel like a jerk for shooting at.

So, something that isn't smart and doesn't have feelings. But when it's cute that just makes it even worse.

*She frowns... more of this strange behavior.* Why do you want to create something just to shoot at it? And, make sure it has feelings when you shoot at it, too?

[Video]

[doorsnotwindows]

Ah, maybe I didn't phrase it that well? I want something to shoot at that doesn't have feelings. I tried wishing for moving targets and got these guys, but they're not exactly what I was looking for.

I just want something that moves around so I can keep my skills sharp, but I don't want anything that's smart or has feelings. I don't have the heart to shoot at something like that. I mean, at least not unless it shot at me first.

[Video] Wait, I forget... have they met before?

[notadalek]

Oh, I'm sorry! *And she really sounds like she means it.* It's just... I've heard some strange stuff from another human and... Well, I'm really sorry!

I would like to help you then, but I'm a pacifist. I'm really sorry.

[Video] I don't think they have! although my memory, lolol.

[doorsnotwindows]

No worries!

Pacifism's a pretty noble philosophy, I guess it's just...not mine. [He grins.]
