Just built a 2 hour work VS. Gave it a test run. The game crashed. Rebooted the game. The save was lost. I'm mad... and depressed.

it might still be there if you go into your team folders and find the bot file and import it.

I didn't export the bot file. I didn't have a chance to do it.

noooooooooooo, not like that. go into ra2folder/teams/teamx (whatever number team it was in), move the bot file into robot designs, and import it.

Did I ever tell you how much I love you?
You too Scrap Daddy. I love you both.

It's 3 Wheeled bot with an incorporated srimech :P

Edit: forgot to add IRL to its name

I'm happy you recovered it :] nothing worse when you build for like 3 hrs and lose the bot.

Looks awesome, as expected.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #106 on:** May 20, 2014, 02:46:36 PM »

It's 3WD and it looks fantastic. 2x props.

Cheers

Here's a peculiar looking SnS
Credits to Naryar for giving me the idea.
Also it's a HW! Haven't done a lighter Bot in a while.

SO COOL

The chassis shape reminds me of this:

Mystic2000 · « **Reply #109 on:** June 25, 2014, 03:05:17 AM »

now that's an unortodox looking SnS for sure, but won't it spin as fast as a grandma with only mag drive ?

Naryar · « **Reply #110 on:** June 25, 2014, 03:08:10 AM »

they look like custom motors to me.

Domanating · « **Reply #111 on:** June 25, 2014, 04:42:19 AM »

Yup, they are. Hence the CU on its name, meaning it contains custom parts.

Those are almost twice as powerful as mags. Not much, though. Still needs to get some momentum .

Naryar · « **Reply #112 on:** June 25, 2014, 06:26:29 AM »

It looks cool for sure but the motors oriented inward are a bit derp...

It sure reduces the spin speed but the only purpose is protection. It drives fine, though

Looks so sweet dude.

Well, given the fact that I lost all my previous bots due to my stupidity, I decided to rebuild some of my previous creations. Also for an incredible strike of bad luck, 2 of you asked for one particular bot of mine hours after I lost the files. I then decided to build that one first with IronForge1.0 plus some other components I manually added from DSL3.0 because I couldn't live without them.

Yup. Devourer is back. It can open and close its "mouth" as usual. Now with treads and a fully functional flamethrower turret, 360º horizontal and 360º vertical movements. It also has servos in it to allow higher flame range. Tons of battery power and CO2/flamethrower fuel.
Now each "mouth" piece includes a dual motor packed with razors, so if somehow the giant disks of death jam due to the "prey" items found, they will ensure damage is still being dealt.
It is very slow but it turns on a dime. Fast bots will have a hard time flanking it.
Exposed driving motors and lack of srimech are probably the only weaknesses

If anyone is interested in using this behemoth, they should first install the rectangular and triangular the armor plated skirts from DSL3 in Ironforge. I can provide the files for an easy installation, if necessary.
Also the flamethrower tower is prone to havoc, but being such a heavy bot there's a chance you can still play normally while it happens, though you can be flung into the darkness sometimes.

Damn, how huge is that compared to a regular sized robot?

Depends of what you consider a "regular sized bot"
Here's Devourer Deluxe Vs a HW

Love how you made the chassis from angled plates. I wonder what you'd create for Scrapheap Challenge.

This should really be in a Custom Showcase, just saying.

Agree. At this point it has hardly anything DSL on it.
