This is where Trov glitch is useful.

Don't ask what this is.

Is that like Ion but a bit more realistic or something?

NFX · « **Reply #163 on:** February 18, 2012, 06:23:39 PM »

It's a realistic Ion. (Edit: Damn you, smashy.) Doesn't look too bad, I don't think, would probably do better if the shell were more balanced with their weaponry.

Needs moar drive, and balanced weight as NFX said.

Hercules · « **Reply #165 on:** February 18, 2012, 08:38:38 PM »

Balance it wil be hard if counted the chasis weight in one side, so the other side must have a litle more weaponary to balance it correctly

Back wedges seem pointless.

They probably help with stability.

Which reminds me, it might be good with the back wedges on hinges. Sounds weird, I know, but 123 made a flipper like that. When the main flippers fire it pushes down on the rear wedges, which then snap back and add more force to the flip. Although I think his might have been a double-sided flipper like St. Agro...

Swordfish would probably be better with Vlad spikes. I know they have normals, but they're actually one of the few good weapons with normals, and they have better reach and DP.

Bullet Train 4.5 looks like nightmare fuel as always. I gotta clone that sometime just for fun...

HW Rammers have to be my favorite bot type now.

does it do as much damage inverted as it does right side up?

I don't know, I haven't tested it but Bullet Train works fine inverted.

NFX · « **Reply #170 on:** March 24, 2012, 07:21:46 PM »

That looks beastly. I don't like rammers with wedges, though, if you get inverted, they're a massive hindrance. Other than that, it does look like a really nice build, if not quite as wide as I would build it. Internals and Armour?

Basically it's NPC Fasts with Ants stuffed inbetween them, not much different then Bullet Train.
The armour is Plastic 5 or Plastic 10, I don't remember.

I don't know how to make a drum ok.

NFX · « **Reply #173 on:** March 24, 2012, 09:44:38 PM »

Looks okay. Could do with being wider, I feel. Other than that, I can't really see too much wrong with it. Maybe see if it would drive properly with Techno Wheels.

Naryar · « **Reply #174 on:** March 25, 2012, 05:02:31 AM »

Pretty good for someone who says he can't build a drum...

Bet it won't

090901 · « **Reply #175 on:** March 31, 2012, 05:08:08 PM »

Plastic 10
Probably sucks.

MassimoV · « **Reply #176 on:** March 31, 2012, 05:15:13 PM »

Awwww, cute. Seems unstable and plastic 10 on a LW is like if a mouse had the skin of an elephant.

NFX · « **Reply #177 on:** March 31, 2012, 05:20:13 PM »

Plastic 10's a bit overkill if you ask me. I'd downgrade that to Plastic 5, or maybe Plastic 3 if that's not going too far the other way, and perhaps add some weapons on the ends of the skirt hinges to help against spinners, and prevent being flanked a bit more.

Naryar · « **Reply #178 on:** March 31, 2012, 05:26:51 PM »

Change extenders to flippermakers, swap to heavier armor choice.

ty4er · « **Reply #179 on:** April 01, 2012, 01:54:09 AM »

you should be able to get more weapons.
