Some early suggestions-
- Bars and Angle Connectors don't work as weapons- Angle Connectors in particular are horribly weak in DSL anyway.
- A good trick is to use Ant Batteries for your power needs- at least one for each motor should do it. You'll be suprised by how much more power you'll have :P
- Try not to use Stock Motors- Redbirds are insufficient drive for a HW, anyway. NPC-Fasts are a much better option.
- And what armour does it use?
-
Don't mix stock and DSL

Unless it's the weapons already available to you- in which case, they're good for things like Spinners.

Depends on what you want to get out of each one, really. For lightweight spinners or flails, lightweight things like Irons or Razors are ideal. If you're looking to focus on Heavy blows however, hammers are good weapons to use- just make sure you've got the motor to spin them quickly enough, though.

Well, it depends what you want to create, really. Many people around here would go "MOAR RAZORS" and tell you to put Razor Tips on it.
Personally, I say if you're going for an SnS design (which that looks to be), then you should use Iron Spikes
EDIT: Curse you, GoldenFox! I was trying to be helpful ._.

ok i go put iron spikes and try it out :)

As in mixing isn't just frowned upon, it is against the rules.

Apart from some parts, for some reason you can still use angle connectors, not that you'd want to
-
Replace redbirds with at least NPC drive, But if you have good driveing skills then NPC fasts will do.
-
Replace the drive with npc's and put the irons on beater bars (10kg if possible) and get rid of the angle connectors (they have low hp iirc) and try upgrading the weapon motor to something like a 4/6 mag or dual perm. You might have to put them on externally for weight.
Look at people like Urjak's showcase for Sheck Spinners like yours.
If you need any more help, don't be afraid to ask me us

i know that i do alot thinks wrong but i am just a noobie :)
btw i need a name for this robot :)

ups i removed it and removed angle conectors now it's hard to battle versus small robots :)
-
You need moar weaponry, I'd change the Titanium extenders and Irons for Large beater bars and razors.
Also remember that you only need one ant battery to power one spin motor, as such, you only need 3 ant batteries in there to power that bot.
-
ok we are done whit that robot
name- spiny dude :)
happy moments-

3mm steall
-
- Better weapons
- Better wheels
- Shrink chassis
- Front protection
- Wedge
- Blue control board
- 4 less ants
- Armor?
- Underweight!
- Are those NPCs or NPCFs?
- Don't stack ants, it's unrealistic
- Baseplate anchors aren't so great in DSL.

and i will replace ants
can u say some good and weels and weapoints for this robot
there is simple npc
underweight mens more weight or less ?
And i totaly dont understand last question
i will post the pic after i will be done
-
You put the ants into each other, which isn't a great thing to do.
Try to get vlad, hypno or techno destructo wheels.
Underweight means add on more weight so it is at the weight limit
-
and how about good weapoints ?
-
some of these weapons have 'normals' which means they only do damage on a certain side.
Beater bars, razors, LDS teeth for lighter bots, most of the hammers and the rest are on the wiki as i'm too lazy to remember most of the rest :P
-
ok here u go -
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/6416screenshot_11.jpg)

You're getting better.
- Try to build as close to 800.0 as possible.
- I would recommend Techno Destructo wheels.
- Try one of the big 4 DSL hammers for both the top and sides.
- Needs a wedge.
- Insides.
-
ok dls hamer is here :)
:dance:

-

...What?
1 ant per spin motor, 2 ants per burst motor.
-
Burst motors need full battery power, Freeziez.

soo if i have 3 brust motors=3full batteries how much ants doo i need for 3 brust motors
-
BGS's require 3 ants, strictly speaking, but you can get away with 2. Mag Snappers are pretty useless, but they require 3, Small JX's need 5, Large JX's need 7, and Beta Bursts need 21. Or 17. I always forget.
-
I heard, 1 per spin motor, 2 per BSG, 4 per Small JX and 5 per Large JX. I have 24 (1x4+4x5)
2.5 per BSG
4.5 per Mag
5 per Small JX
7 per Large JX
21 per Beta

2.5 ;)

-
Soo i need 2.5 each?
-
Soo i need 2.5 each?
Yeah, round it up, if you end up needing, say, 7.5 batteries, just to be safe.

No, you are using JXs...

no coments thats sad :(

Try lurking in other showcases, notably builders such as Ounce and Pwn
-
*gulp*
-dont use t-connectors as you can put them on the side of the extender, plus you have bad weapon choice on there.
-Don't use baseplate connectors, use multi extenders instead
-Minimise empty space
-needs better wheels on most of them
-the pole spikes are rubbish as they have normals and aren't going to hit anything
-i cant quite see it it's realistic
-use extenders (poly, alu, tite, steel) to put razors on (look at my showcase somewhere if you dont know what i'm on about :P)
-only need ant batteries for spin motors
-tell us the armour?
-use different external armour as those have bad hp iirc
-read these tips on building: https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Tutorials (https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Tutorials)
-
Yes, but make sure you're looking at the DSL tutorials and not the stock ones, otherwise you'll end up very confused.
-
hmm that looks nice (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/3323Robot%20Arena%202%202011-01-22%2020-25-39-98.PNG)
this is ty4r's
-
That was an example of double extenders to put weapons on.
It's pretty bad...
-
i going to the village i will be gone for a time :DD :) so see a :D
