This was my original concept for pot Luck, but conraa rejected it for realism (Which I understand, the solid shaft withing axle argument doesn't really hold its own here), and also for supposedly being a glorified VS.
My above post explains everything about everything.

I do like it and I think it's a shame that I had to reject it.
To back myself up on my glorified vs point. It's a vs in the same way that Sage's Mammoth and 123's Candy Bar are Vs's. Just because the chassis is enclosed like that doesn't make it a FBD.

If you build an FBD, does the chassis have to spin as well? Because that would be nigh-on impossible to AI properly.

I know this probably doesn't answer your question fully. But this is what i'm using as the definition. There is a difference between FBD and TRFBD.

Also on a completely unrelated note; why do I always get you and G.K mixed up? At first I thought I was replying to G.K. I think its because you both have usernames which don't seem to stand for anything.

Ah, so the weaponry kinda has to be in the position of an axle between the wheels? Right, hopefully I could build something with that design if I do get it.

And there is a story behind my username, but that's for another time.

...Yes, you are obviously right. I seem to have failed epically my wisdom check right there.

A year to the day since I last posted in the thread... Page 6 of the showcase board... I've really let myself go...

Well, I wondered if I could get an NPC and a Dual Mag on a LW Flail Sheck Spinner - continuing on from where I left off with Minifridge 7. I ended up with this monstrosity:



This is Minifridge X. Below picture should give some clue toward the setup:



2 ants, tite 1, 4 flail razors, 2 flail light beater/razors. It's a pity that I couldn't get more weapons on but never mind.

I've not tested it AI'd yet but I think it's stable enough to work with FBSPlus. There's a huge problem in that the DSL disc doesn't cover the whoel baseplate but the NPC's collision mesh prevents that.

Really, it's just nice to build again.
