Jake Williamson's terrible showcase

[Jakewilliamson]

If possible, try and place a small wedge at the front, so robots ride up on it to meet their demise.
That's the only thing I think needs to be improved, your getting the hang of this real quickly.

Well I tried but not a chance, this will do, also update its chassis paint.

On an unrelated note: I'M NOW A MIDDLEWIGHT!

Off Topic: It appears you have gotten ahead of me Tommy xD

Happy now with it.

On Topic: Nice bot, remember to post the bot's insides since that's the way we can give more advice but on the whole, I agree with Tommy

[Jakewilliamson]

Then here's magic clouds insides:

[helloface]

The chassis is tight which is good, but it would look and perform better if it was flatter. Try making the chassis slightly bigger & sacrifice two or three ants.

[Natster-104]

I remember shield saying in my showcase that its 1 ant per motor, I'd say put in 4 and you should be good, you can spend the extra weight on better armour, and also what helloface said

[Jakewilliamson]

Better now?

[R1885]

Too many batteries, you only need three ants.

[cephalopod]

Just to explain, in DSL2.1, the motor power consumption is strange in a way that means ALL spin motors ONLY need around 1 ant to power for all 3 minutes - putting an extra one in is good practice just in case. This is not the case for burst motors which need to be fully powered, but yes, your LW could get away with 3 ants, and you can always save another kg by using the larger blue control board rather than the small green one :)

[TommyProductionsInc]

You can also make the chassis even SHORTER by using the small chassis gimmick.
I can't really explain it in words, but there should be a tutorial on it.

[Jakewilliamson]

Is it much Irlish now.

[Badnik96]

You should be able to shorten the chassis more. Go to the chassis height slider and raise it all the way, then click just below the bar.

I'd go with wide ant wheels and a longer weapon bar, right now that isn't going to hit much at all.

[Jakewilliamson]

Replaced piglet motor with a much better weapon motor, or the weapon would be slow.

Now for my BB9 Middleweight entry: Doctor Fist





''I pack a punch like nobody's slight KO, am I irl enough, or im I a KO fail'' Doctor Fist   

[Thyrus]

i like the look of it. still you.only need 3 ant batts and try to always use the blue controllboard. its lighter than the small one. use the weight for better protection,wheels or tribarextender

[helloface]

Not too bad, but build to the weight limit. You should keep four ant batteries and upgrade the armour as much as you can.

[Elementos]

I too like the look of it. But yeah, Bat overkill, and that weapon doesn't reach too far, could do with a tad more length in replacement of the batteries. (Some sort of way to flip it back over if inverted might be a good idea also.)

[Jakewilliamson]

''I haz tornado mer gearbox, now none of you's face me, or you will be punched!'' Doctor Fist





Look what Doctor Fist has done to top dog!

[Natster-104]

try it against a flipper or an axe, that tribar could be hit and broken off or you could be flipped

[Jakewilliamson]

Scrapping Doctor fist and replacing him with Hammerist.

[Natster-104]

Is that top heavy?
