Mini Moo - Raise the blade so it doesn't go through the chassis. DSL is realism.
Bots Like This - If you can, try using a TWM drive motors, you may have to take some batts out.
Dizzy Dragon - Use a blue control board. Also, don't you think vlad spikes are kind of heavy for a LW?
Elevator - 13 batts? That's way over powered drop down to at least 7 or 6, and use NPC's, you'll have the weight.
Fear Ripper - Take out the ant batt and 2 reds, then try using irons if you can. Don't use stock parts in DSL.
Helicopter - Take out 3 batts.
Mini Moo - Raise the blade so it doesn't go through the chassis. DSL is realism.
Red Reaper - Take out the stock control board and use multi extenders.
Zantetsuken - Same as Mini Moo.
Elevator - 13 batts? That's way over powered drop down to at least 7 or 6, and use NPC's, you'll have the weight.
actually more battery's = More flipping power
RotA - anyone else thinking Haymaker ?
hey, I'm working on an AI pack and was wondering, could mini moo be in it? if so can you make a MW and HW for the team to?wow.....woooooow, I can't beleive I asked to put a DSL bot in a stock AI pack
Yay, Badnik and Naryar are entering rammers in TX's tournament. They are going to get raped by my popup.
What about "Your Worst Nightmare"?
Did you get the LW SS Stable?
Nit Picker 3
Scyther would beat that. :P
Poly extenders lowering skirts to keep realism. Now has a med beater attaching the razors instead of a small.
Also, Jonzu and FOTEPX, send me your bots. We'll settle this.
But ONLY BEACUSE he had a bigger weapon.I lol'd.
But ONLY BEACUSE he had a bigger weapon.
I'll send my bot on Friday.Wait. Why are you sending him your bot?
Tbh, this just scares me.QFTx10000000
No. =D
It's a little bit slow, in my view, with astros and minis. And why not use the blue CB?
all those hammers on the back could have been easily avoided with better drive placement :P

What? I just wanted to make something that looks like Nightmare.
I think your weapon motor may be a bit too slow. How does it fair against popups?it spins fine, and its untested against popups ATM (lulz)
Add NPC Fasts, take off a few skirts but keep the amount of weapons and remove the flails , and you've got my unshowcased bot, WhirlWynd. I was gonna call it a ripoff, but I thought, nah, it's good.
Faster drive (perhaps to TWM3R's) Would be best.
Also, the name needs to change. I mean, who's gonna be brainwashed by-GREEN IS NOT MY ENEMY.
it spins fine, and its untested against popups ATM (lulz)
Cake?Yes please!
I have to say I like the bottom right best of all, it reminds me of Nightstalker a little bit.Yeah, it was mostly inspired by Thyrus' HW UFO thing though (and RR's Turbo teplica)
I like your nightmare ripoff on top of this page. Could make for better wheel protectors though.atop of what page ?
DP
Huzzah!
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/16273BALROG.PNG)
Made with 100% DSL parts!
Maybe someone on the Cave Story forums will claim it and use it for BoF as a joke bot, just to give you guys easy wins XD

some IRL-realism bot
Tite 1, dual etek, 3 ants, Slimbody/small ant wheels. 396.9.
Also it needs a name, suggestions welcome :D
The look of the wedges ruin it for me personally.
Why don't you use cooler looking weapons than small DS teeth anyway?
I wanted something that looked cool while kept the bot from bouncing, and I didn't want to make a drum.Yeah, that exposed motor+unsupported axle really hinted at IRL. I know sometimes I don't support the axles of my Perms in IRL designs but it would look so much cooler. Secondly, those wheels don't particularly go well with the whole theme.
Oh I think I forgot to mention this was an IRL bot. Sorry.
DPReminds me of The Master, somewhat ^^
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/40533ScrapyardFalcon.PNG)
392.Something. Still Plastic 3 ^_^
Also with lame-o perm support.
I like the stabilizer work, though the main weapon choice... no, just no. Chewblades are just plain BAD.If BOT_204 was anything to go by...

...but what is so bad about Chewblades in DSL, though? I know that they're horribly brittle in Stock, but I'm not so sure about DSL.
*rebuilds*Looks awesome now. Have you tried it with any other weapons? I know minion disks havok into other bots mesh occasionally.

We aren't all online at the exact moment you post; just because you don't get replies within 10 minutes does not supply you reason to double post and beg for comments. Be a little more patient next time please.
a DSL MW SFTW, and it SUCKED. HARD.
The point was just to see how a double SFTW (double the weapons, double the drive) would fare in DSL.a DSL MW SFTW, and it SUCKED. HARD.
Isn't that the point?

Though I could be proven otherwise...See my bot in pot Luck. I got the fastest quali time.
probably the awesome exo-skeletonThis.
Here's a ton of IRL-style bots inspired by Robot Wars:I would give you +1 if I could. So awesome work there ;__;
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/67660IRLteamshots.png)
DESCRIPTIONS:
Bot in the back with a Vlad wedge: Snapping Turtle, the wedge and spike both fire as sort of a flipper/clamp
Bar spinner in back: Roboticide. Generic but incredibly powerful.
Hypno Tooth HS in the back: Doomipede, it's a shuffler and so gets a 50 kg weight bonus
Blue robot in the back: 99, named because it weighs 99 kg (396 kg in-game). Has a poking spike and 4wd, it is invertible.
Orange bot with evil eyes: Antlion, horizontal crusher. Uses Razer snappers but doesn't do a lot of damage and is pretty slow.
Green bot with blue flames: Drift. Judge burst powers the flipper but it has a tendency to havok at exactly the wrong time.
Green VS: Poison Blade. Deadly spinner but it can't self-right.
Silver bot next to the shell spinner: Steel Cobra, that crusher I mentioned. Uses a BSG, planning to BFE it to a razer motor though.
Sheck spinner: Ricochet, does good damage but tips easily and can't self-right.
Blue sawbot with the red arrow: Cobalt, deadly saws and really fast. Nothing wrong about this one really.
Black bot with saw and warning stripes: BuzzBomb 2. You may have seen the original on the bot exchange, this one has a servo arm.
Red thwackbot: Spike Driver. Does lots of damage and is one of my favorites out of the group.
Red VS: Zilch. Nasty spinner inspired by The Alien. However it can't self-right.
Black axebot: The Assassinator. Based on Tomahawk, it has a really nasty axe.
Blue and purple wedge: Pure Force. Front-hinged flipper powered by a BSG because Judge Bursts kept havoking. Can't OOTA. At all.
Wedge bot with the spike strip: Gladiator. Fast and pushy, spike strip powered by a lifter snapper.
Bear claw robot: Puma. Fastest of the bunch and my personal favorite.
How'd you get all of them in the bot lab at once?Try and not put them in the same place, take a screenshot, put them all in the same place on Microsoft Powerpoint, crop each of them except the bottom one to just the bot.
Needs more Panic Attack skirts.
It looks okay, I think. Skin could be a little bit flashier, however. I might prefer it the other way up, but as long as it's invertible, then that's good. =)
it looks fine, insides ?
I would use the same wheels as Final Z if it's supposed to be an IRL version.
Looking pretty good there. I'm quite looking forward to seeing how the PA skirt is attached, I can't seem to work it out.
no, 8 razors on a LW axle rammer. Less wat. :gawe:God I need to stop having such brainfarts.
Managed to stay stable enough to take out ReActivity (AKA the 7th seed for BW Bash season 4D:
so much empty spaceNeeds to be that way otherwise it turns into a havok bomb.
I love everything about it except the wheels.What's wrong with them?
Dunno, they just annoy me. Yes I know it's hypocritical coming from me seeing how most of my bots are like that. :)I love everything about it except the wheels.What's wrong with them?
Hello?Only 1 hour went and you ask for comments, they will come eventually. The bot itself looks alright.
Looks like it'd get tossed around by unflailed HW SS, but that's just me.
The balance/traps or somefin on either end of the bot, do they get ripped off much? They look a little frail... Lovin' the saw though.
I decided to completely redo the weapons system and upgrade it to a dual perm.

It actually does really well against SS that aren't flailed. Flail SS on the other hand...
And no, the skirts don't get torn off much.
Do the beater bars still do some damage if it gets de-razored?
the me's and flippermakers are uglyWhat do you suggest I use instead?
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/64952irlsetup.png)the me's and flippermakers are uglyWhat do you suggest I use instead?
No weight.Even with tite 1, alum 1, or plastic 1?
It's HS fodder enough as it is ATM.
It's HS fodder enough as it is ATM.Looks > Being efficient in IRL.
It's HS fodder enough as it is ATM.hint: its a vs, it probably isnt going to do so well against hs either way with that thin-ass disk and those normals

Get rid of those damn teeth and replace them with 4 medium beaters. Use the rest of the weight on stuff.no, the teeth were the entire point of the bot
There's really no room, any further in and the drive motors (mags) won't go because of the perm.Rebuilding is key.
That thing is adorable and I want to keep a colony of them in a small lexan box in my garage.
I'd go for a slightly higher resolution skin, 512x512 might give it a cleaner look overall, rather than the lossy pixeled look it's got at the moment. Exposed Piglet isn't that appealing either, though I'm not sure how a Flipper Segment housing would look.
...erm, it has Brave nature (attack rises faster but speed rises slower)?
bumpSuch a shame for that trainer all my Rattata beat his Rattata.

So how good is the wedge?I'm going with terrible since he used all 3 connection points on a skirt hinge
youre not building seriously are youwouldn't, for a sumo match, being heavy or using heavier things make sense?

Team Deception's first lightweight, Turncoat.
It's a black box with a spike on a stick dude. What am I supposed to say.
I can't get a single positive comment can I?
holy crapSpikes lining the chassis gets all the ladies.
I can't get a single positive comment can I? You guys are against me and my building style or something I swear.
You guys are against me and my building style or something I swear."Look at mah box, mah box is amazing." Dude this box is dull. Give is a skin to at least make it vaguely attractive.

if only you had the weight to line that top hexplate with some sort of teeth, that'd be really shanazzy
Otherwise, those hammers look like they pass through the lightning spikes and that flatmotor being there is sort of an eyesore. Otherwise, I like the concept :3
Adding on to this; if you removed the lightning spikes (or if you really like it, lessen them) then you could add the teeth to the hexplate.
I think it would look better if you just removed the lightning spikes and increased the bar length.
Add another batt? I don't know, it's what I usually do in that situation XD Anyway, nice looking bot.Really don't have room for another battery. It's super compact xD
give it 4wd NPC fasts with hynos and a lightining spikethis
just do it
give it 4wd NPC fasts with hynos and a lightining spikebadnik stop being lame
just do it
why dont you just rebuild it then
give it 4wd NPC fasts with hynos and a lightining spikeok fine
just do it
hah, funny enough my LW is also a fast pl1 rammer, but mine uses npc norms and has 2 irons.
couldve sworn i saw that black DJ blob somewhere before...
You do know having the reinforced perm atm is just wasting weight?if that bot is IRL, it's actually kinda saving weight
It is for DSL 3 AI.You do know having the reinforced perm atm is just wasting weight?if that bot is IRL, it's actually kinda saving weight
I knew that, but not all of the DSL 3 AI bots are irl, and not all of them are non-irl either.It is for DSL 3 AI.You do know having the reinforced perm atm is just wasting weight?if that bot is IRL, it's actually kinda saving weight

I don't remember the weight difference between reinforced and non-reinforced perms but wouldn't he save weight by using reinforced one, because it counts as motor reinforcement in IRL so he doesn't have to use weight on extender work?
You really think I still give a crap about standard building don't you.You should cause the true playas live the thug lyfe and can build both and be good.
You really think I still give a crap about standard building don't you.what, you dont care about using your weight effectively so that you can use it on other things?
Does the disc rub on the ground and slow it down?
Move the lower skirts back so they make a perfect wedge shape.Yeah, i agree
... why so sloppy

The skin is ok to me, except the lettering. Needs an outline or something. Not very pleasing to the eye.

that is your most realistic robot.
ever.
95% of your PDN knowledge consists of plain text on the default titanium texture?
What if you used Vlad wheels? They'd be lighter, wouldn't they?They are also smaller in diameter
looks kinda nice, though it may look better with a small DS teeth on a 10kg beater
Nice job there, I'm only kinda annoyed by the skirt hinge wedge though.Agreed, do something about it Badnik.
Yeah I wouldnt be invertible with Vlads sadlyhey look I lied :V
for that buffalo i would just swap the beaters with irons they kinda look out of place for something that is supposed to be buffalo's hornsIrons don't have a side connection point I could use to get them onto the flipper. Also rule of seven keeps me from putting irons on the beaters.
Just noticed that Badniks been muted, what's he done wrong?
I've given up trying to make dslbar + beater work in lw. I want to beat Moros and that's not the way to do it
At least I put effort into making it look decent and not just spam weapons *cough*Elementos*cough*
I miss when IRL was about building cool s***, rather than efficiency.It's kinda a mix of both, but yeah, I see what you're saying.

Honestly awards in an IRL tournament are the gratification for building something nice looking which has little combat efficiency (thanks to those who've voted Nemesis as Best Engineered in the BBX awards :P means a lot)
that was a jokedamage control
real one coming soon
Vantablack is cute :3Vantablack is tryhard as hell.
lol what are you talking about it's gonna be slow as balls and is going to be HS fodder, the stabilizers are kinda sketchy but it gives it the sunshine lolibot feel.Vantablack is cute :3Vantablack is tryhard as hell.
Well it looks better than that cheap 20XX prank bot he showcased.Vantablack is cute :3Vantablack is tryhard as hell.
Says the man who entered Chipper.Vantablack is cute :3Vantablack is tryhard as hell.
:facepalm:Vantablack is cute :3Vantablack is tryhard as hell.
not enough batteries :P
Make it 2WD also really... you're building a MW clamp you're already very tight on weight.
I have no words!QFT. This is beautiful.
it is a cruiserweight so i could make a 200kg minibot that looks like a strip of bacon or something. might do that at some point actuallyPLEASE DO THAT NOW!!
Put it on a team with some similar VS/HS and you could call it the International House of Pancakes.You mean the International House of Paincakes ;)
is there anyway you can use BFE or something to get rid of the gap between the wedge and side armour things on bonesaw

Is murderbox running just a flat motor for the drum or something else?

it's pretty nasty, i love how it came out. NPCF drive, each drum is powered by a separate Perm 132 so it has some serious power.
