Simples, bottom protection is easy to put on a VS, and yes, MM is spot on, WEGELESS FTW!!

So if flippers are so boring why are you making a team of them for me? :P
TBH, it's because you started Skaihigh at a point where i had far to much time on my hands, now i do not, and am regretting trying to do so much ;P
But, also, i want to make INTERESTING flippers, perhaps start a non-generic flipper revolution ;P

Only bot types that work w/o wedges:

SnS: Hate this. Cheap, IMO (Mainly beacuse I find it hard to beat them. =P)

Thwacker: I think this is like Stinger from RW? Anway,Dislike these

VS: Just tried one, not even worth attempting to improve.  :(

HS: Even worse @ these than VSes

Rammer: See VS

Drum: See VS

SS!!!ONE!!!!!
Umm... i mean try improving you're SS skills  :gawe:

I made a FS a couple days ago. It's not too good but is a nice bot nonetheless, I like it, but not because it's good in battle. I'll post it soon.

The FS I was talking 'bout:





No battle shots, as it is bad in battle. It can beat some popups and Second Sentinel.

Irons on BSGs for looks, trapping (Not very well, but they can), and quick self-righting.

3 ants and a battlepack.

Don't use multi extenders for the disc. Ramplates aren't terribly good in DSL. Also seems like there's alot of empty space. Nice concept though  :redface:.

Have been testing AP 1.5 in BBEANS AI. It's tougher than NAR, but I'm doing OK. I've won about half my matches, by I've gone up against the old bots, mainly.

Just get 123 AI, it's probably the toughest AI around, so you may aswell take the plunge.

Actually, I don't think I'd gain anything from being KO'd within 30 seconds.  :confused:

Yeah i know it's nothing really special, but it amuses me how it's so often done that way in stock, but in DSL people aparently seem to go through loads of weaker AI packs first.
If you ask me, you're more likely to get embarassingly quick k.o's in stock than in DSL

I'm part of the straight to starcore 3 bunch, yay :D

For some people, being beaten easily makes them strive to be beaten less easily, and eventually win. For others, it puts them off. Do whatever sinks your sub.

You guys are making 123AI sound harder than it is.

About Stock, I thought it was OK, but needed a more powerful Spin Motor. Then I saw Absolute Chaos, and bots like that, and I just got DSL. Stock = 36 Mace/Iron HS territory. Any other bot really struggles, IMO. You need a v. good bot to beat a mediocre 36 HS

How are you guys getting on in 123AI? If you're finding it hard, I'll more than struggle. I have one bot I would classify as 'Good - OK', the rest are.. meh. When I was lurking I saw 123's showcase. I know for a fact that his robots will wipe the floor with me.  :frown:
                          badgering
Anyway, I'm still beavering away at BBEANS AI.


_____________________________________________________________________________________________________


I know what it is. Most of the NAR AI and BBEANS AI have wedges. I get quite lucky with my wedges, so I'm not doing to badly there. However, if I remember rightly, 123's showcase has more wedgeless bots than most showcases, Therefore they don't need to be under my bot to do damage = Bad for me.


[Edit] Just use the 'Modify' button instead of posting consecutively unless they're in totally different contexts (replies to comments + showcasing a new bot), okay? :D - Pwn Ok, sorry.

Really 123AI is for testing bots against bot types, not individual bots. It is much better for testing Sns, VS and the like; you should build some of those.
For VS, see Craaigs showcase, for Sns, see 123s.
