poll regarding dsl realism

[courthousedoc]

My stance is only bursting hinges should be legal (Flippers are more realistic that way)

[Natef]

Can I see a video of them?

I remember suggesting a bunch of "halved" motors to prevent this.
 
I still emplore this patch. it's easy to follow.

Sorry FRAPS and Gamecam refuse to work, so I cannot catch them on video but there is a hinge burst in the RoamingRobots AI Pack.

Hinge boosting should be treated as servo boosting, since it's basically the same.

I sure hope you meant Servo Enhancing?.. otherwise id be worried :P

There's no option for "I don't give a sh**" on the poll.

Then why are you even posting in this thread ?

Pure, unadulterated boredom.

Oh we are servo boosting on DSL now?

I am fine with it actually.  DSL has been dominated by popups, FSS, and FSnS, with spinners such as VS and HS being the underdog.  This might actually balance out spinner a little bit.

As long as noone attempt to put a FSS motor on a skirt hinge....  cuz that will havok SOOOO bad it won't even be funny.

yeah.... have to agree with that, but at the smaller weight classes(MW,LW,BW,AW), hinge bursting is more prone to havoking(although, i have made a LW version of Midnight Wave, but at other times(like when i'm trying to make a hinge bursted Final Z clone,it havoked every time i turn and when the bot hits a wall),so, in conclusion, hinge bursting is fine because you're trading higher havok probabilities with a faster weapon.
