Exactly what I said :P

If your weapon axle is further from the chassis (in terms of forwards and back) than the end of your supports, it's gonna be tippy.

In what direction(s)?

Also it doesn't tip sideways and I don't know if AI's move forward and backwards consecutively.

Example side on view of bot

If the axle of the motor is FURTHER FORWARD than the END OF THE SUPPORTS, it will end up being tippy because all the weight of the entire bot will be trying to spin around that axle point.

But can AI's move forward and backward consecutively

cephalopod · « **Reply #63 on:** March 18, 2016, 03:59:18 PM »

They can do whatever they need to...

Yes. For example, if it's trying to de-immobilize itself.

Naryar · « **Reply #65 on:** March 18, 2016, 04:01:00 PM »

what do you mean ? they can move forward and backward, but don't unless very specific circumstances.

And yes, your bot is too front heavy. Put the weapon closer to the bot, or the stabilizers farther forward.

DeadGenocide · « **Reply #66 on:** March 20, 2016, 02:32:12 PM »

Alright I put the weapon closer but now it has minor gyroscopic problems.

Alright my next bot is a chicken drill called Autistic Chicken.
The name came about because that was the first thing I called it when its previous versions kept switching to Titanium 1 instead of 5 when I was making it's paintjob

4 ant spin motors spin iron spikes
2 static irons on the end
4 Npc Fasts
and 1 PC545

Titanium 3

you still got 20 kgs bud :)
need that up to like 797 or more every time. Think about it this way, a bot with more weapons/armor/etc will beat the same bot with less weapons/armor/whatever.

few things:
needs to be invertible. Just use a bit larger wheels. as is if you get flipped you're doomed and it's a very easy fix.
the main thing though is you need to optimize your weapon a bit better. I know it's for the challenge and chickens are not very good anyway, but still. I would open up the angle you got your drills at. right now your inner drills will never do damage to your opponent - try to make it so they all hit at reasonably the same time, this will do more damage.
I'm also concerned that your top skirt isn't really doing anything and may hurt you. if it was invertible I'd kind of get it since you'd be going for a double wedge approach, but even then it seems to me that all they'd do is keep your weapon from hitting the opponent. tbh I'd just get rid of the top skirts and use something else, perhaps a plow or something to keep the opponent from sliding over the drills.

Yeah it has a shrimech so **** it (now it does)

Reier · « **Reply #70 on:** March 29, 2016, 10:06:57 PM »

its better to make it invertible in this case since its lighter and quicker and you could use the weight for more important things

Naryar · « **Reply #71 on:** March 30, 2016, 05:11:24 AM »

nothing is going to fit inside this dual wedge system

DeadGenocide · « **Reply #72 on:** April 10, 2016, 05:24:20 PM »

Hideous
Titanium 5

Note: The Ramplates aren't intersecting anything and the Titanium sheet isn't intersecting the small wedge or ram plates.
1 Beta
4 NPC Fasts
2 PC545 1 WP836E for power.

Can flip out bots, even SHWs!

Flipping out Mikado is not hard, just let it hit you and it'll do the rest for you :P

I can see.

It's like a Mako clone

Naryar · « **Reply #75 on:** April 10, 2016, 05:33:58 PM »

It's a beta burst. It's quite strong, so yes, you can flip out stuff out of your weightclass with it.

If Mako was wedgeless, wasn't boxy as hell, was a SHW and built by me then sure. :P

I put more ootas and I'm getting close to ootaing Neptune from Celestial Objects

DeadGenocide · « **Reply #78 on:** April 10, 2016, 08:59:55 PM »

Reier · « **Reply #79 on:** April 10, 2016, 09:07:02 PM »
