Post by: trainboy on June 24, 2010, 11:22:05 PM: Hi, I am a new member of gametechmods. I have had Robot Arena 2 for a long time and just figured out how to get the DSL mod to work for me. Anyways does anyone have any robot building tips that they would like to share? Also I'm looking for anyone who is up to doing some online battles as well.

The best way to learn how to build well, is to show what you have in the showcase section and let us critique your bots.
Learn the basics of building from the beetlebros website (look on the portal/main page).

Welcome to GTM!
