Faster: No double-buffering
Flicker-free: Enables double-buffering to eliminate flickering during the game. This may be necessary on slower computers.
Show names: When set to "anonymous only" the robot names are not shown during gameplay.

This is where you select which robots will fight. For example, to fight "Sniper" against two "Rabbit" robots: set Robot #1 to "Sniper," Robot #2 to "Rabbit," and Robot #3 to "Rabbit."
