it doesnt really matter whether or not you use a small wedge or not. the wedge is going to be horrible either way, but since its IRL its not like wedge quality really matters.

Small wedges are wedgier. They get under opponents easier.

Well, for me at least.
Small wedges are not in DSL 3

Woo! No more GHEY wedges!

One of the main reasons why I prefer DSL 3 better

Pistons seem exposed. However, if you want to keep the design, you should replace the Baseplate Anchors with Multi Extenders. Also, aluminum in general isn't exactly efficient, and you may want to consider another armor type.

Edit: 6 Ants is overkill with only two drive motors, three will suffice

I know, I just built it for looks. DSL3 doesn't matter right now, so maybe I'll improve it when DSL3 is out of BETA.

it must be sloooooooooooooow

It's got vlads, so it isn't too slow.

Alright, enough with the bots that I'm probably never going to see again.

Here's a possible entry for TTTT

Good Control, Decent Damage, A LOT of sharp stuff

High ground clearence

I was only going to enter it because I forgot about the deadline, so I just added some stuff on A Generic Spinner, then sent it in. Then Conraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa gave us more time, so before I made a new bot, I tested it. It's actually decent.

Weight is about 394, I have no idea what the armour is. Exact same innards as A Generic Spinner. Shouldn't matter anyways, because it's a spinner.

Thoughts?

is that a 2-mag powering the shell? because thats not really enough. i'd replace all those teeth with razors, get a bigger motor for the weapon and replace the razor/extender thing at the top with an 80cm skirt.

an inside shot would also help

helloface · « **Reply #249 on:** July 24, 2013, 02:47:13 PM »

I was thinking more control, but in DSL-S (No, I'm not finally turning. It's realistic rule enabled. Everyone keep your pants on.) I guess damage is more important. And, like I said, same innards as A Generic Spinner. I'll do what Ty said then see if it's better. But first:

Another possible entry.

Low ground clearence

Normals???

I assume it will do decent damage, unless the normals mess me up. I'm also assuming it will be invertible. If not, I'll switch the wheels to hypnos and lower the armour to Alu10.

Weight is 398 flat, Tit10 armour. 5 ants, and NPC Fasts.

Yes I know I only need 2-3 ants, yes I know Tit10 armour is overkill. I had too much weight to play with due to the tight chassis. I also haven't tested it yet.

Thoughts?

razors > ripping teeth.
hypno wheels > dsl wheels.
2 ants > 5 ants.

Believe it or not, it was much better before. It did some damage, then shed most of its razors, then flipped itself :/

It's like you just looked at the picture without reading the post. Fine I'll do the razors, but Invertibility > Acceleration. Also, the Ants thing depends on how many razors I can fit efficiently.

helloface · « **Reply #252 on:** July 24, 2013, 03:20:05 PM »

Turns out it can still be invertible with hypnos. The razors gave me with so much extra weight, that I could afford a steel skirt and another ant.
Weight is at 386. The normals did mess up the ripping teeth, making it do 100-250 damage per hit. Razors should make it better.

personally i'd have beater bars on the hinges with razors sticking up from them, which will help a lot with armour and damage. also you only need a tite skirt at most for the wedge

I tested my bot today...

Despite the 70% chance of havoks, I like it.

Expect to see another TTTT entry soon.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #256 on:** July 25, 2013, 02:47:11 PM »

Nah you just havoked because you took off Beetl's weapon motor. Nothing to worry about.

helloface · « **Reply #257 on:** July 25, 2013, 03:19:53 PM »

Here's my last TTTT entry before I go to the skate park:

I haven't tested it yet, but it looks powerful.
398.6 weight, Tit1 armour.

AlexGRFan97 · « **Reply #258 on:** July 25, 2013, 03:35:36 PM »

Wait... Beetl? You mean as in RFS AI?

helloface · « **Reply #259 on:** July 25, 2013, 03:39:41 PM »

I use LDAI 0.1.2.
