Jaydee99's custom component Showcase

I don't really care if he was trying to help or not, he still gave me an opinion which I can base my next move for the bot on. Him saying the skins sucks is just a more blunt way of saying "Improve the skin."

-This is the whole two sides of the same coin deal. It depends at how you look at a person's response.

You must have never gotten a single insightful comment about aesthetics in your whole life.  I don't blame you, nobody give a rat about aesthetics nowadays.

Telling someone to "Improve the skin" is just as useless as "your skin sucks".  If that's somehow useful I should go to every showcase and say "Your bot's weak, make your bot stronger".

How is that not advice? Why are you trying to create note drama and keep digging more when it should have been over and done?

Your advice is bad, make them better.

It's good advice with poor wording.

You aren't getting the point I'm trying to make. If you expect people to have to explain every little detail on how to make the bot better then you might as well give them the bot and tell them to do it.

The whole idea is that you change the bot based on feedback you're given, and the way you do that is up to you. This is what makes so many clone bots because people just copy the same thing everyone says rather than experimenting themselves.

[cephalopod]

Okay guys, I think that's enough.
It has become increasingly clear that people do tend to team up on Jaydee, giving the same horribly written advice again and again. You'd never see stuff written like that to other members even if the bot was bad.
123 has a valid discussion though, perhaps it should be taken to Junkyard however.

[Natster-104]

I've got an idea. Look at any decent IRL builders (mainly MassimoV, Scrap daddy, Thyrus, and a few others) and try to clone it, then we can detect that when you build your bots, what you are most faulty at :)

Let me just stop you right here.  We got more than enough clones as is.  We do not need another cloner.

I'm only requesting one clone, and then we could all help find out what goes wrong when Jaydee makes his bots, why shouldn't that be the case?

Also, I think leaving JD out of the conversation is wrong, perhaps he should have a say as well

(E): well I think craaig has put it clearly, let me make a thread in playground

Jaydee please take peoples advice. Secondly evolve your bad bots and improve. Take anti gravity my first in my modern flagsship series.

It had a bad skin, bad flipper design that couldent self-right and it was too fast. But i added a srimech and a plow. The srimech failed but the plow on the back was a good thing and from then on all bots in the series had some form of back defense.

I have a new bot to show, Anti Gravity 3.

Innards

The next edition had a powerful and damaging flipper with good defense but a practically anorexic weight issue for a HW and was too fat for it to be a CW. Then I swapped to duel judge bursts andsleekend out my bot from there into this.

Innards

After that i started fine tuning it with wider back protection with taz wedges on 2 areas.

Anti Gravity 3.6.Tite 1.

This was the last showcased version but i have a newer one. Just look at this then back to the original video.
This evolution is proof about staying with a bot until it isnt 5/10 but rather 8/10 or even 10/10.

[freeziez]

your bots aren't a bad start, but when someone says improve them, make sure to do that instead of just moving on to another sub-par bot. that's all i got.

[Naryar]

Can you people stop arguing over nonsense ? Showcase cleaned for the second time.

Avalanche didn't do anything wrong... actually he even put more work and thought into his post than some superior builders... so don't whack him.

I will start to warn people if they can't help but post nonsense in this showcase.

[Jaydee99]

Don't be expecting too many, I just felt like creating a bunch of jokebots. My first for this:

[cephalopod]

Thread merged. No need for 2 personal showcases, even if 1 is for jokes.

[Badnik96]

...is it sad that that might actually be better than half the bots you've posted

[Jaydee99]

...is it sad that that might actually be better than half the bots you've posted

so Your Demons was nothing 
I'm making a new thread for only my IF robots

[Badnik96]

Hey I only said half. Your Demons is on the other half. :P

Learn to crop pictures next time.

Also, I agreed with all of 123STW's post.

[Jaydee99]

Another bump but I don't see the point in opening yet another showcase for my DSL robots (I have another one upcoming but its not quite finished yet):

[Badnik96]

It isn't awful, but I don't see a reason for the second set of wheels. Nice BFE though.

Skin could probably be a little nicer too. Make the black blend in better with the blue.

[Jaydee99]

the second set of wheels was for steering, as the main set, sticking out of the chassis, was powered by the car steering motor which is awful for turning
thanks for the compliment

I'mm see what I can do.

[Badnik96]

Why are you using a car steering motor??? Just use NPCs.

[Jaydee99]

Didn't want to risk straight line driving.
