so here is a video of my antweight bot, though i think its now classed as lightweight... not sure
if it is 125.0 kg or less.. it is an antweight
if it is 125.1 to 175.0 kg... it is a beetleweight
if it is 175.1-248.9 (not sure where ra2 normally draw the line between lightweight and middleweight)... it is a lightweight

Post by: RammingSpeed on March 19, 2012, 03:49:25 PM: On the actual bot, it needs weapons + wedges.

Post by: CrazyClown on March 19, 2012, 04:02:07 PM: Thanks for the support and for the criticism :bigsmile:
As for the bot itself. I think i shall leave it as it is for the moment. May return to it, not sure yet.

Regards Crazyclown :)

D: sorry about the song, i shall change it next video to a softer one. As for the bot, come to think of it, it does. Maybe its the shape, not sure but either way just has that sense :beer:

Title: Re: Crazyclown showoff area ;) :p
Post by: CrazyClown on March 19, 2012, 05:05:11 PM: Understood. But I haqve like three folders for RA2, DSL, Stock and Customs.

249.0 not 248.9.

Well technically it's 249.99999999 ad infinitum, since you can build a bot that is still a LW at a display weight of 250 kg.

Nah, that doesn't work. It is something to do with rounding the weight to one decimal point. You can get a LW up to 249.0499999, I think, but as soon as it surpasses 249.05, then it's classed as Middleweight. I'm not 100% certain about the more intricate mechanics of the game.

Post by: R0B0SH4RK on March 20, 2012, 12:17:41 AM: I'm fairly sure you can exceed 249.049999 since LWs can display 250 kgs as their weight. 249.049 would round down and display at 249 kg.
Title: Re: Crazyclown showoff area ;) :p
Post by: ty4er on March 20, 2012, 02:18:00 AM: 250kg or 249.1?

anyway you really need some sort of weaponry on that
Title: Re: Crazyclown showoff area ;) :p
Post by: Jonzu95 on March 20, 2012, 02:23:39 AM: Needs weapons, and keep DSL & Stock parts in separate RA2 copies.
Title: Re: Crazyclown showoff area ;) :p
Post by: Celestial Panda on March 20, 2012, 09:30:43 AM: As people have already said, needs weapons. You could probably make the robot invertible and look like a parallelogram if you're going for an earlier-RW-style bot, that'd be cool. Try add some spikes while keeping it LW :)
