Title: STOCK ROBOT CHALLENGE
Post by: [cringey name goes here] on February 04, 2018, 07:21:07 AM
I'm gonna do a challenge.
Comment 10 random items from stock, and I will try to make a bot with it. I'll make the chassis a cube for now.
No custom components, please

Itd be better if they were given a selection from a pool randomly

Also, your list must include a battery, wheel, and armor type.

OK sooooooooooooo this was back in the days when I couldn't figure out problems on my own (I still can't but whatever.) AN earlier comments says there should be a tournament based off this stupid idea. Vote on my poll if you think its a good idea?

My suggestion would be to have a small list of suboptimal parts that are guaranteed to be available (for Stock, something like: control board, pink battery, monster truck wheels, powered steering unit) that technically allow a robot to be built.  Then, each person who enters can name an additional part to allow - you could make things easier for yourself by allowing something useful or screw with people by allowing something useless.  Just a thought though.

I could also spin a wheel for what type of drive motor, weapon motor, wheels, etc.

Would work even better for DSL since then we wouldn't end up naming half the parts.
