Stock and DSL are so much different that most of things you learn to use in stock, mainly glitches and stacking are not even allowed in DSL because DSL is for realism and stock is not.

Well, I took most of your guys advice (except for that one guy; you know the one), and here is the newest modification of Bullseye:

And the insides:

Upgrades:
Shrunk the length of the chassis by two rows (any more, and I could run into some issues with the sides)
Scrapped two multi-extenders, saving that precious 6kg (thanks, Naryar!)
Changed to 2x Slipperbottom wheels
Added 2 more Iron Spikes to the FS, making the total weight of weapons @ 100kg (an accomplishment for me)

Same everything else (4 ants, 2 NPC's, 2 Piglets, 2 Large Skis, Plastic 3 armor). Any advice on getting me to that weight limit?

IMO snapper loading and eFFeing are required if you want to be a top DSL'er.

Now if I can keep the thing from tipping over from the wedge...

Should I downsize the wedge to 40cm panels, or is the 80cm just fine?

Good Job CoolRunner...

MW Shebeast, anyone?

Get NAR AI v2.1. Try to beat the MW's there.

Your improvements to Bullseye 3 are terrific. Keep up the good work.

COOLRUNNER87 · « **Reply #49 on:** January 23, 2010, 11:47:34 AM »

Now, to bot #3: Drazah (Hazard spelled sdrawkcab).

The insides:

The stats:
-Plastic 5 Armor
-2 Hypno Wheels on 2 Astroflight Motors
-4 Ant Batteries
-2 80cm Aluminum panels and 4 80cm Angled Aluminum panels to form the 2 wedges
-2 120cm Aluminum panels to keep the robot from flipping
-1 Normal E-Tek for weapon power
-1 20x200 DSL Bar
-2 30kg Sledgehammers

Still a bit light, and obviously needs some improvement. Ideas? Thoughts? Ramblings for another 2 pages b/c of a certain kid?

Use up the weight by upgrading armor or improving drive if possible

... *sigh*

Squirrel, I know that. I'm asking for ideas to do just that, as well as making this thing better.

Another ant battery?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #53 on:** January 23, 2010, 12:09:18 PM »

unnecessary, and my post was unfinished

For internal motor, try lowering the chassis and use mag 4, or mag 2 if you don't have the weight.

Once I can start tooling around on it, I'll probably go down to a dual-mag. The quad-mag is just a little too big to fit in the bot.

Wouldn't you have to rebuild the chassis anyway since you have to lower it? In a sense the whole point of moving to mag is so your chassis (and hammers) isn't so high.
