Not bad for a starter, though it is generally not well seen to mix stock and DSL.

yeah, don't mix stock and DSL. Not bad for a newbie, though.

Mix stock and DSL? If you are referring to Emergency, That is Critical Emergency. If not, could you tell me what you mean?

Stock components...

I don't remember techno wheels or bsgs in stock?

Badger · « **Reply #6 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:34:54 PM »

Or ant batteries.

Any advice on the bot?

I think they mean the red extenders and the square extenders.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #8 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:36:34 PM »

You shouldn't use the red extenders or the square ones as they are from Stock only.

Conraaa · « **Reply #9 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:38:42 PM »

To add something constructive I thought the rule for bsg's was 2 ants per 1 bsg? If so that bot could use a few more ants.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #10 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:39:06 PM »

2.5 really.

Conraaa · « **Reply #11 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:41:01 PM »

I was close

Badger · « **Reply #12 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:41:14 PM »

Sorry. I only used square because it is easier to get the orientation right for the razors. Any I didn't think the reds mattered as they weren't exposed, and were the nearest ones in the extender tab. I'll go change the reds now, but the squares are needed for me, as I cannot get the attachment points to point in the right direction with the round extenders. Does it really make that much of a difference? The squares have 1 more KG and the same HP.

And I'll add more ants.

No neither is legal for a DSL bot, you didn't overwrite the game properly.

Conraaa · « **Reply #14 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:43:19 PM »

With round extenders its a pain to line up right admittedly, but it is possible. Keep trying.

Reier · « **Reply #15 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:47:52 PM »

I don't think he patched his game right if he still has the red extenders

Sage · « **Reply #16 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:48:21 PM »

Use this tip: every little rotation you make of the extender is a 10 degree turn. So, find out where the attachment point is, then rotate 9 turns either direction. The cool thing about DSL extenders is that both sides of it have attachment points, so if it's not orientated that correct way in the beginning you can just rotate them 90 degrees and it will work.

so, you have NO EXCUSE for using square extenders, ESPECIALLY in DSL.

If I'm totally honest, I don't see the fuss over the extenders.

I appreciate you guy's help and all, but to me it just doesn't seem neccesary. I'll change it anyway, though.

I added more ants, and downgraded the armour to titanium 5, to accomodate the batts.

All showcases are considered competitive unless stated wotherwise, even if you do say so we'll treat it that way anyway.

Badger · « **Reply #19 on:** January 21, 2011, 03:51:43 PM »

I'll change the extenders then.

I'm downlaoding Sage's DSL, so I'll transfer this bot over, after I replace the extenders on my bot, and I can start from there.
