Looks a bit messy but it makes it up in combat worthiness (it can out-wedge(?) Hope No More 4 & Imperium II,although it has to be a quite high collison;and i'm pretty sure i've created this new type of wedge).

Please use the GTM image host for your pictures instead of having us download them. Thank you.

Advice ? Look at the NAR AI bots, see how they are built, take your advice from them.
-
*Go to image host.
*Upload image.
*Copy "Link for forums".
*Paste in your post.
Also it's a good idea to take a screenshot of the insides of your robots so we know what's in it.

hi heres some generic advice https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,5739.0.html (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,5739.0.html)

ok.....
1.you only need 2WD Technos or 4WD Hypnos(With NPC Fasts or NPC's in the casFasts, duh.
2.Use razor tips on multi extenders for weapons. (It's not a popup if you didn't noticed...)oh
3.Ditch those ds lights and then adjust the starting point for the weapon so that it's hidden under the titesheets(trust me, these kind of popups have a weird ability to find a tiniest slit on an opponents half sheet spammed underside, even when you see them fully covered with it)(Still a wammer and not a popup!)oh ok, but he can make it a popup if he wants
4.use photobucket or the GTM file host next time.(Explain what he needs to do instead of what tool he needs to use)1.after you finished changing the pic's format from bmp to png, go to photobucket, and then register or log in, and then click the upload button, and after that click the "select photos and videos" button. 2. Find the file of the picture, wait for it to upload, and then go to your album. 3. Find your bots pic in the album, and then hover on the pic, but don't click it, and then you'll see the IMG code,and a link next to it. click the link, and then paste it to the post. if you do it correctly then you'll see something probably like this:(http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa458/coolnael/MidnightSky6.png)
5.*legasp*you can get under HnM 4? Bot Exchange plz???
6.insides?(of the bot)
-
Gauche,i've tried 2WD Technos but for some reason it impairs the wedge's ability,i'll try your weapon advice & i'm not posting the insides (if you see wedge) until it's confirmed that my wedges are original :laughing (but i need someone i can trust to confirm...)
I'm sorry if i seem magniloquent,but i've spent a lot of time with this bot &I don't want someone to take my idea & get credit.
-
Did you just attached your metal hinge on a vertical skirt hinge ?
...Why ? It may be original but I'm pretty damn sure it's a waste of weight. At least there's no reason the wedge should be better.
Also next time, post your pictures correctly please. No thumbnails allowed in there.

These are the rules, make sure to follow them.

Thanks for the advice,but i've tried 2 NPC fast w/ Technos & the wedge isn't effective,i'll try the hypnos (4 NPC fasts? or normal)
Should i upload another bot?

The next bot i post is a full body drum (i think)

fasts, duh.
Rule of thumb for popups(slow rammers, wammers):
1.HW: either 2WD NPC Fasts Technos or 4WD NPC Fasts hypnos
2.MW:2WD NPC Fasts Hypnos(beware though, this drive is a beast to control)
3.LW:2WD magmotor (the R version) hypnos.

Normal NPC's are fine too, in certain cases.

Okay,there's no need to be rude :bigsmile:

i'll crop it later
-
Underweight. Also it's a... two-dimensional rammer ? I suppose the weapons are unpowered.
Also, crop your images correctly. As much as I am flattered to see my NAR AI BGM, it is useless to show it and the bot. Just crop your pictures and post the bot and weight.
-
well it rolls on top of wedges,it has plenty of power but i'm not sure how to use the 15kg;because the 'external chassis' doesn't touch the floor it sort of rolls ki'netically when i drive forward/back.

That's not even a barrel spinner... You'll need to spin the chassis without spinning the drive pods, or contain the chassis inside the drum. Take a look at my own FBD: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,10600.msg514825.html#msg514825 (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,10600.msg514825.html#msg514825) or Squirrel_Monkey's robot in the Battlebots tournament: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,7183.0.html (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,7183.0.html) for an example (preferably S_M's - mine's not exactly presentable). Also, welcome to the FBD club.

grogapa,team despair,two teams underneaths bbeans champions i think
phoenyx,the chassis is in the drum? but i understand the spinning bit (& if you look at my post earlier I clearly say 'i think')

If you want the chassis to spin independently from the wheels, take out your drive motors, replace them with E-Teks, then build a pod on each side with a drive motor, wheel, and two casters each. Experiment with it. It takes practice to build FBDs. I admit I got lucky with mine, but don't expect your first attempt to be a success.
By the way, how well does your current design do?
-
I was just building a FBD,my current Version is pretty good against bots with a wedge,terrible against VS,FnS,Sheck spinners.
The FBD i just created has 2 E-teks inside the chassis (not connected to drive motors)
