Just to make sure I know what my bot was just doing...
« on: May 11, 2011, 04:30:00 AM »
I just tried to build a 1X1 robot, and every time it touched the ground in the test room it...exploded. next thing I know I'm outside the window of the test lab with my robot nowhere in sight.

Is this a infamous Havoking problem? I believe I've heard you people call Havoking 'Robots on Crack" before.

hmmm, a shame. I was hoping to make an immensely small robot just to see how much damage I could do with essentially a midget.

If it's DSL, you can get away with 1x2, or a diagonal 2x2. Smallest I've gotten away with is, I think, my AW Crawler Scuttle, but Puncture's pretty small and compact. Try cloning that if you like. =]
