lol :P
While you wish that, here's my new lightweight flipper, mainly used for owning the King Of The Hill contests.
PURPLE FLIPPER OF DOOM!

Can't remember what the armour is, but it stand up to a beating.
Occasionally I swap the fork for a plow and take the ant battery out.
This tends to give it better protection, but less flipping ability.

lol. funny skin. how effective is it at deathmatches?

cephalopod · « **Reply #63 on:** April 24, 2009, 01:07:58 PM »

Lol, the skins inspired by Thermidor II.
And, it does okay, depending on where it is.
If theres a pit, or I'm against something that can't selfright, it does fine >.<

ah. i have a real problem making lightweights. my depth perception is WAY off. so rather i usually go for MASSIVE damage than flippers. this is also why i can't seem to make a nice, small chassis and fit stuffs into it.

Same, this one took me aaages to perfect. It's been around since before Stealth Destroyer 4 was put out, it's taken me a long time to get right.
Then again, I built a lightweight HS yesterday. Not that great, but it's alright. Seems to beat everything except that yellow one with the annoying spinny spike strips

hmmm.... can't think of it. i'll have to look at it later and post its name.

how is a custom skin made for the chassis?

cephalopod · « **Reply #67 on:** April 24, 2009, 01:20:47 PM »

I do it by exporting the paint template (on the paint tab of the bot lab) then editing it in paint. There's a tutorial somewhere, that's how I learnt.
