Guldenflame's showcase, but it's DSL

[Gulden]

After hearing about redditbots for the first time, I was finally given motivation to join reddit.  Now, I finally have something.
What is it?  A F*ckin wedgebot.

In other news, I've been working on a project for a while now, and I think I should show it off and ask for help perhaps.

[jdg37]

I like the DnD jaw setup.  Very crocodillian. 

[NeonCalypso]

I was also planning to enter Dwarf Solaris on Redditbots, see you in the tournament.

[Gulden]

Well, here's my team for LDAI.
I also had one bot that I wanted to add, but wouldn't because it didn't fit with the rest of the team/was kinda weak.
It might make a good bye bot some day though.



I present you, Team TroubleShooters.

[Badnik96]

if you want to send antivirus anyway, i could re-name it and stick it on one of the stock teams.

[Gulden]

It only took me 2 days to finish all these bots for Demon's tourney...  Good or Bad sign?

Kylo-Wrench.  A replica of the robot that knocked Talon out of the competition this year.
Runs on 2 copals to replicate the lack of speed the real Kylo-wrench had.

Inclination is a flipper with no special attributes whatsoever.
Runs on astroflights and flipper is that weak green burst motor.

Big Little Drum.  Originally I wanted to make a Barborous 2 style bot, but this sufficient.
Runs on Slimbody motors.

At first I wanted to call this "Razer clone" but the resemblance was too close, so I called it Razer.
Runs on 2 TMRWs

Iffy Lifty is the current stage of Project dine and Dash.  However, its lifting power is... kinda a failure at the moment...
Runs on 2 TMRW2s.

The only robot that I already showcased, Antivirus has been greatly improved. (Ok, that might be over exaggerated)
I now has bottom plates and a slightly more powerful flipper.

Big daddy Night Terror is back!  With removeable self-righting wings if I want to bring Torment in.


However, I might want to adress a small issue with Torment...  It flies away and won't come back!

LW and MW are iffy. maybe try and hide the piglet on the LW?

MW is sorta bland imo, but would look better if the wheels were completely in the chassis instead of sticking out

HW could benefit from smaller wedges flanking the main flipper (angle extenders or beater wedges?)

SHW multibot seems coolio. Torrent might not come back due to the hover engine not being attached to the base.

LW and MW are iffy. maybe try and hide the piglet on the LW?  Uses the word iffy.  Doesn't mention the CW.

MW is sorta bland imo, but would look better if the wheels were completely in the chassis instead of sticking out 100% agree with this

HW could benefit from smaller wedges flanking the main flipper (angle extenders or beater wedges?) I would see how.  However, weight is a bit of an issue with this one.

SHW multibot seems coolio. Torrent might not come back due to the hover engine not being attached to the base.  Might retry and see if that's the problem.

Edit:  Found the issue.  Apparently if there is a component directly beneath the hover engine, it'll float away,  I placed a regular sawblade in the clep blade's place and moved it outward.

have torrent fly away anyways so no one can beat you :3

did you apply armor on the HW? usually i just give extender bots like this plastic 1 since external armor is present, gives me weight to play with

[Gulden]

A possible replacement for Razer in Demon's thing.



Armor is Aluminum 5.  It uses a flatmotor to power the saw.

Edit: Armor Downgraded to Steel 3 and 2 ant batteries added due to a large amount of battery issues in testing.

No inspiration at all.

[Gulden]

Obviously you guys are speechless about how awesome cling was. (I'll just keep telling myself that until its true)
Now...  how bout I make a walker.

Forgotten note: Armor: Aluminum 10

[Gulden]

Let's just say the same thing about the walker...

[Badnik96]

i like the weapon

[Shield]

Digging the weapon and the supports, lookin slick

Wheels being half way in the chassis is off, but since theyre being covered i guess its aight

[Gulden]

I didn't like Inclination really.  Nor did I like the walker rule that half the weight had to be on the walking mechanism.  Thus, I made Payload into a BW.



Once again I felt too lazy to skin.

[Philippa]

How well does it walk?

[Gulden]

How well does it walk?

If it goes slow enough, very well.  Otherwise, it starts flipping over.
Hense it's name.

[Gulden]

4 Robots... 2 Tourneys...  Weird how it works like that eh?


In the case that TGM allows CB2, I have spares of poison and Toxin just for that.

[Mr. AS]

Robo-1's flipper looks a bit awkwardly long, but I suppose it's realistic enough.
Beater looks good, even if it doesn't have a lot of weaponry for an HS.

[Gulden]

I came up with an idea once.
This idea involved a flamethrowing plunger on a lifting arm.
The idea wouldn't go away so now you have a flamethrowing lift robot with its lifter vaguely looking like a plunger.
It's a good wedge at least.
