FOTEPX's DSL Showcase

[FOTEPX]

Here's the Large Puma Version of Acornia 2.





Now...

How should I use my spare weight?

[FOTEPX]

OOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 

Acornia 2 now Havoks when the spikes hit a wall.

 

[Naryar]

Lower the chassis and use hypno wheels - your bot will be faster.

(If you use hypno wheels you will need a lower chassis for invertibility - absolutely not obvious :P)

My DSL has a limit of how low the chassis can go. The chassis on there is ON the limit.

If there's some awesome glitch which let you go past this limit, tell me.

[JoeBlo]

BFE or bouncing will do it

set the lowest size, then quickly pull down the scroller or flick it and it will get a bit lower

[FOTEPX]

I've managed to shave 8KG off of the weight of Acornia 2 (Small Puma Version), keep the same power, and now Havok.

The magic of Medium CO2 tanks...

And with the spare weight, I added Polycarboate Extenders to the end of the Titanium extenders, so now it's a lot more stable, and now it's much faster, and it doesn't dip when the spikes are inactive.

I tried, but failed, and I don't know how to BFE.

[FOTEPX]

Do you guys think that their is a better use for 8kg, other than polycarboate extenders used as stabizers?

[Pwnator]

Increase in armor, or a skirt hinge wedge.

[123savethewhales]

To get to the lowest possible legit chassis height, all you have to do is "click" as far down as you could, rather than "drag".

[Naryar]

Just click one pixel lower than the lower end of the height selection ruler.

THANK. YOU. NARYAR.

[FOTEPX]

Here's Acornia 2 HMS, built in NAR AI since Naryar told me how to make chassis small and stuff.



(HMS stands for Heavy Metal System, and if you recognize that from somewhere else, you recognize it from Beyblade.)



Armour: Still Plastic 3

It's Invertible?

[Naryar]

Most likely.

You should get rid of the 2 flippermakers by angling your razors upwards and downwards, then get a larger CO2 tank.

Im worried that that will remove the effectiveness of the weapon. Show me a robot that uses angled razors (that actually got somewhere in something) and i'll do it.

It's Invertible?

Yes.

[Pwnator]

Angling the razors in both directions actually make it more effective. It increases the area of attack vertically. Like this:

Thanks.

[FOTEPX]

Here you go. The only thing I'm worried about is that the skirt hinge wedge ain't gonna do much...

[Pwnator]

Swap to aluminum extenders so you can lengthen the wedge.

Yes, but which two should I change? Or should i just change all of them?
