what about flyer

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #84 on:** June 04, 2010, 03:21:07 PM »

Melty Brain and FBS are not robot types. Or am I wrong?

FBS is like where the wheels dont move but the body does. can only be done with like sawblades or soemthing.

Yay for including Bottom Spinner :D

Someone seriously needs to build one of those, maybe even have BS as the setup for next BOTM?

I did it with wheels

Oh!!! Wammer too.

The biology classifications make sense, perhaps a formal way of classifying our robots.

So Basic Type > Horizontal Spinner (HS)

Sub type> (often a weapon or extender style) Bar

Robot Name> whole new axis

So a robot like this could be introduced as. Look at my horizontal bar spinner, whole new axis.

LOLWUT FBS is the same as MeltyBrain... thats why its called FBS.py for the SnS robots that give chase while spinning

-------------

my idea for bot classes

Spinners

HS
VS
FS
TS (juggler its just a stratogy of this)
Sheck Spinner (with one of the above classes added to it, Eg: HS shell spinner)

Burst

Flipper
PopUp
Hammer
Clamp
Poker

Sit and Spinners

FBS (follows an opponant while spinning, either with additional drive or FBS.py)
SnS (spins in one place, FBS_1.py, FBS_2.py, etc)
Whipper (chases an opponant and spins around or back and forth when in contact, Whipper.py or Pillar.py)

Other

Crawler

all sub classes and hybrids should fit in those catagorys but this keeps it pretty simple

^I was thinking along those lines^
You could just have a few main classes and then break it down from there.

Naryar · « **Reply #92 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:19:14 AM »

FBS is Dark Cloud style, NOT a MBSnS.

Otherwise it looks good, but you forgot rammers.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #93 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:21:15 AM »

"Other"?
That's crawlers, rammers, inertia bots, flying guillotines etc...?

Naryar · « **Reply #94 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:24:47 AM »

Oh and i forgot flying guillotine. :P

I didn't

Naryar · « **Reply #96 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:28:41 AM »

OK... so flying guillotine = complex (because FLAIL ON FLAIL) overhead (attacks from the top) flail (self-explanatory) whipper (whips back and forth like normal whippers do... i think ?)

JoeBlo · « **Reply #97 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:29:33 AM »

all those complicate things, FG is just a whipper.

but yes rammer was forgotton

Quote from: Naryar on June 05, 2010, 06:19:14 AM

I think your complcating things too.. "robot name style" isnt really a class

whats the difference that makes it not fall into one of the catagorys I wrote

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #98 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:33:11 AM »

What about 2 even more general classes.
Unpowered and powered weaponry?

JoeBlo · « **Reply #99 on:** June 05, 2010, 06:37:25 AM »

mine breaks down to (if you read the headings)

Spinners
Bursts (piston or motor)
Sit and Spin
Other (static or projectile)
