How do you put motors and stuff outside the body of a bot? I can't ever do it but it would be apparent you can do that somehoe.

its pretty easy to get motors and stuff outside, you should look at showcases and the beetlebros site for tips.

actually i did, but i didn't know about using an extender on a anchor or base plate and then the motor. my game doesn't have instructions and the tutorials don't work for some reason but the rest of the game does so i have to ask dumb questions alot. im sorry.
