Bit of a vague title but hopefully I can explain.
When I am not making robots as a hobby I am a wargamer.
I have had the idea to mix the hobbies and make a game that the players move their robots by remote control for a set period of time. They then roll dice to determine who shoos who. its Robot wars meets warhammer 40K.
So for starters what I am after is advice on how to achieve the following;
+ All the players can move their model by remote control.
+ The remote control can be activated on mass by a referee and stopped on mass (The example would be all players have a 10 second window to move that the ref controls).
+ An individual player can be activated or deactivated independently of the others.
Apologies if this comes across a bit vague, its a hard thing to get down in text form. As this projects progresses I will post more on it here.

Re: Help with turn based robot project
You could have a control box for the referee. They can set switches or press buttons to allow people control of their robots. When the ref presses the switch it activates a relay to give power to their remote controls.
You could do all this easily with an ardiuno.
