Try not to use cheat parts.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on May 08, 2009, 02:47:12 PM
Yah i tried... But the whole point of the bot is Cheat Parts, Coz (I think) That Ninja Star is only avable when cheating :P
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 08, 2009, 02:50:20 PM
Your extender work is much too heavy when you can just use multi extenders.

And im pretty sure the ninja star is not a cheatbot2 part in DSL.

Post by: somestrangeguy on May 08, 2009, 02:51:37 PM
Yeah loose the wheels and bateries and use normal DSL ones, mainly Battle pacs and Ant batts and the Z-teks are for stock game only, use NPC Fasts or TWMR Drive. And the way you have your weapons on is wrong, the chassis protecting the weapons when it should be the otherway around on top of that its not nearly enough for a HW. Not to mention the large amounts of empty chassis space.

Post by: LiNcK on May 08, 2009, 02:54:04 PM
Ok... So heres a bot WITH cheats, But not exactly... It was made in the Stock RA2.
But then... I downloaded DSL Soo... The spikes, Motors, Connectors are basically a Cheat in DSL. (Remixed in DSL... Batteries & Wheels)

Here it is, My First Robot: Hard-Spikes !! :D

Yeah, Ill try that.. Thanks :P
I was thinking of making a h4x0r v3. Because this one is weak against flippers & bots that u cant get above them (With BIG armour barriers)

But i have no idea about wat kind of bot i should make... I love those spiky bots, But they are ALWAYS weak T_T

You're not going to get ANY respect and constructive criticism if you showcase DSL bots with stock parts.

Keep DSL with DSL and Stock with Stock.

And, i say that to nearly every newbie that starts on DSL, browse the other showcases for ideas and advice.

Ok.. I have a bot with only 3 parts that are Stock.. I wanted to chage em before show them to you guys, But when i change the stock connector with the DSL connectors, I cant paste the Armour plate a had on them anymore... And it was hard to put the connectors too, It just doesnt want to stick there..
It seems like its bugged or something:

(http://i39.tinypic.com/244a6a1.jpg)
Yup, Wheels missing, and some other parts :P

It was hard to paste the connectors to the anchors... That NEVER happened before

Hmm maybe you got that glitch thing where if you minimize the game and go back on nothing attaches. If oyu did get that then just go to the test lab then back to components and it should be fine.

You own the AI because you use cheat parts. And most of the AI are just too outdated.
Also, learn to type damn it. This is not AOL.

Pathetic.
Wrong drive motors
Wrong Weapon motors
Vastly over powered
Lurk ,lurk, and lurk some more.
Also, I suggest this:
Pack thread (https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1737)
There's not much in there, but it should provide some challenge.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Weirdo on May 08, 2009, 05:33:09 PM
EDIT: ^^Yeah, those are weapon drives your using for the wheels...

Well, at least its not a mix 'n' match. Its overpowered. If you removed most of the batteries you would have enough weight to use on better drives for your spinning weapons.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on May 08, 2009, 05:35:04 PM
Ok, Ima rebuild it right now...
The batteries were there coz the killing of the opponent WAS gonna be slow.
So it was supposed to be Slow, Long lasting damage..

PS: I used that Motor for the driving because it looks like the RA2 Stock, Z-Tek Motor.
Whats that motor for? :P
Too big to be for weapons :S
Title: LiNcK'z Botz

You will be a MUCH better builder.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: infiniteinertia on May 08, 2009, 05:38:04 PM
Dude you are almost as fail as it gets. Someone should delete this showcase.

-If you are going to build DSL, build DSL bots in the DSL Showcase.
-If you're going to post bots here, they must be pure stock.
-DONT MIX DSL AND STOCK
-DONT USE CHEAT PARTS FOR SERIOUS BOT BUILDING, CHEAT PARTS ARE USED AS RECREATION ONLY
-Abide by the rules.!

And finally, you're not a good builder, not anywhere near decent. So stop acting like you are.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 08, 2009, 05:38:43 PM
Now we're talking!

First it has too much batteries(try to make the total amp drain of your motors slightly superior or equal to the total output of your batteries), second you MIGHT be better with Piglets (that are weapon motors, Astroflights are drive ones), third you will be better with drive E-Teks.

I made that mistake at first too, but they are NOT too big for weapons. They are for the weapons you're using though, you need to be more imaginative with what you can do with the components you have. You seen the size of some of the disks for example?
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: R1885 on May 08, 2009, 05:43:42 PM
E-teks are kinda big, but can be used as good weapon motors. Try chaining them some time.
BTW, E-teks also have a drive version.

Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: R1885 on May 09, 2009, 10:01:34 AM
That's because you most likely don't have enough power. You need a ton of power to spin a 6-mag.

And if that doesn't work, you can always chain the motors together.

Dual-Perm sucks 304 Amps.
I cant put 304 Amps of batteries in such a tiny bot...
Also, Dual-Perm  doesnt fit in the bot.
Ima use 6 Gear Box.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 09, 2009, 10:09:54 AM
You didn't changed anything !

And no the dual perm doesn't sucks 304 amps but a little more than 100 amps.

And if it doesn't fits into your bot just rebuild the chassis !

Like all other bots like that...

I wanted to do that wth hax0r 2, But RA2 Doesnt let the Ninja Star go Through the chasis.

It doesn't matter if it goes through the chassis to a certain extent. Also, only Shebeast, Mako, and Smashbox 2 are BBEANS Champions. The others are just replicas

@ Reier: What manual?

@ Manu: I just saw Classy Paintjob, Same as mine :O But SpinXor seems to have a smaller chasis or a bigger atack range than Classy Paintjob.

PS: How did u put small wheels in the NCP Motor? I tried small wheels but they dindt touch the ground. S23 were the smallest ones that touched the ground.


Use NPCF Lefts and NPCF Rights. Their axles are slightly lower.

I can imagine that being slow as anything, because Slimbodys are antweight drive motors, just replace them with NPC Fasts and possibly change the motor to 4 Mag Gearbox, since 1 sawblade doesnt need that much power prehaps a 2mag could do fine also.

How about this: Lack of weapons for a HW? make it a MW or if possible LW, then that blade would be a good weapon alone.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 10, 2009, 01:15:12 PM
You can definitely make that a LW Horizontal Spinner with that Cleprechaun blade on a double magmotor gearbox.

Because something like 32kg of weapons (i think it's 32kg) is like nothing on a HW HS.

I do not agree SB point of view.

Sure your bots are not academic and in a contest, they should have 'something from the west', but i found them inventive in their shape or weapon usage.

A bot guru should do hundred time better from your basic idea, but, becoming a guru is a matter of time, being inventive is a matter of genius (and  still 'of work').

so, keep your ideas high , show off them, than listen to people advice, and do not despair when someone criticize.

Hmmm... Ok, But the size and everything is PERFECTLY calculated... It cant be changed alot, The lengt of the extender is the closest possible to the chassis.

Multi-Extender is shorter than the Steel Extender etc.
That means the E-Tekz wont fit at the end.

Also, Its done... But I changed it.
My game crashed and i dindt save the bot... Soo I had to Re-Make it, And the Armpurs dont fit anymore..

Well you are getting better.

Remove that red battery, the bot is already overpowered, and you should know that long 30kg ramplates really suck in DSL 2.1, because of a scripting error they're something like more than 3 times weaker than 20kg (original) ones for 1,5 times the weight.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Somebody on May 12, 2009, 03:11:40 PM
Extra wide ramplates are terrible. do not use them at all costs.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Weirdo on May 12, 2009, 03:14:42 PM
Do you really need baseplate anchors for what you're using them for? Would have thought you'd save space and weight using multi extenders.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on May 12, 2009, 03:56:52 PM
Hmmm... Ok, Ima use a Multi-Extender, And a Titanium Halfsheet then.
I asked wich one was better Titanium sheet or ramplate, but nobody answered...

EDIT:
Ok, I did it, Now it has 11 Ant bats & it draws 94 AMPs.

I also left the Anchor Extenders there, & Deleted the Multi-Ectender at the end of the Steel ones.
That means that the Armour Plate is now almost atached to the piston. (Still realistic)

I changed the Wide ramplate for the Titanium HalfSheet...

Pretty sure it's the ramplate. However you can stick titanium halfsheets to your bot's baseplate (you need to find the right attachment point) to protect you against gut rippers.

Not enough weapons for a HW.
Could make chassis smaller.
If those ant batteries are stacked, then its a fail.
You have 111Kgs left to use, so use it.
You wold be better off with 10 or 5 mm titanium instead of steel, because the weight/armor ratio is better, meaning you can add more stuff than with the steel armor.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Pwnator on May 25, 2009, 08:03:03 PM
ARE THOSE STACKED ANTS?!!??! >:O

Downgrade the armor (probably to 5mm Titanium), and make it a 4WD. Extend the hammer and curve it, then if possible, add a plow (or just a DSL bar) just in front of the hammer.

But i got a HUGE, but HUGE idea when trying to fix it: Razor (Coz it uses ALOT of Razor Spikes)

Changes from Sp1k3z To Razor:
-Instead of the Steel plates, I made the chasis itself curved ;O
-Changed the Motor for the spikes (Finally found another motor for those)
-Changed weapons for Razor Tips (Coz i was using Spike Strips coz of their long range)
-And the body, Coz I wanted to make a line of spikes... But came out better than expected.

Nah. The front part isn't enough. You need a metal hinge or a skirt hinge to get under most bots.

Another note, use 2 burst motors (Mag snappers are preferred) instead of 4. You'll still be able to put the same amount of razors without breaking the rule of 7.

But not bad, though. :D

That's slow for a HW popup. And yes, you might want to use wedges.

You might want to use, say, 4 battlepacks and 2 ants because battlepacks are better if you want more amp output and ant batts are much better if you want your batteries to last longer.

Also 30kg burst weapons need a Mag Snapper IMO.

If you didn't choose any armor, than it probably has DSA, which is bad in DSL. (I think)
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on June 02, 2009, 06:50:22 PM
mini wheels are not better for grip.

your best bet would be DSL wheels or Hypno's but it will be a bitch to make invertible with hypnos.

OK, Soo.. I wanna make a new bot (Have an AMAZING idea)

But theres this prob... I want to put a motor just like you put motors for wheels, But instead of putting wheels, i wanted to put some hammers on them... But it doesnt let me put anything besides wheels (Its not a drive motor)

Lookz:

Its supposed to be Inside the chasis, If i use an extender it will go out of it... And basically theyll be too way from eachother.. enough to make a bot go through them..

You could attach it there trough .bot file editing, but then the bot would not be legal.

Post by: roboman2444 on June 03, 2009, 02:40:52 PM

Post by: LiNcK on June 04, 2009, 05:57:38 PM
To the front, So the flat part hits the opponent. (Right one clockwise, Left one Counter-Clockwise)
Also, I putted S3 (Or S23) wheels... Tornado's are too tiny & the other is too wide.

I really dont know what wheel is grippy and wich not :S
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: takatsukiyayoi on June 04, 2009, 06:35:19 PM
Look in the description of each wheel... if it says "grippy" it is.
And TD's wheels are fine for SHWs, S3 wheels are just as bad as slipperbottoms.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on June 04, 2009, 07:10:26 PM
Ok, Thanks... But ill leave the S3's, I tried Tornado wheels but it makes the bott go too fast and when it turns it goes KAB00M... Also when it turns with the hammers on it goes KAB00M... But thats other story ^^

Putted Tornado Wheelz & a bigger extenser in the front (You know, the polycarbonate one?) Now it doent go to the front when it accelerates with the hammers off, But the Turning problem is still there ^^

And ill see what i can do about the motors, Since i only have 5KG left >_>

No part can intersect another part that couldn't have a slot cut in it in real life. Example: Spinner blade passing through armor plate or chassis=OK. Spinner blade passing through wheel or battery=Not OK

Use stronger motors for heavier weapons, in this case I suggest you use a 6-Mag or Dual Perm. And you can use DSL bars instead of tribars if you're short on weight.

Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Pwnator on June 07, 2009, 08:27:01 PM
That's because you're using 4WD. Bar VS aren't supposed to be 4WD. Just use NPCs or NPC Fasts and you'll be fine. And your weapons, no matter how powerful they are, are totally useless if they can't get under the opponent and rip them apart. So add some wedges and use plows instead of the side tite sheets.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Reier on June 07, 2009, 08:34:24 PM
IMO you should make the weapons spin the other way like most other VSs.

This bot is not done, And i WILL be changing the weapons (Hammers) if i make it a HW.
It still has no drive & its underpowered... SHW maybe? :)

Its just to show you guys the basic concept of it :P

How is it different to any other shell spinner? Apart from the fact that it doesn't use a full shell and is lacking in drive.

But have you lost the enthusiasm to battle? If you don't build, you can't battle, and you can't improve your ideas easily and you certainly can't enter torneys. You're unlikely to gain much more respect either.

But, if you don't want to build, don't build. Thats fine, you're unlikely to get slammed. Advertising your lack of enthusiasm may find you getting slammed however.

Post by: LiNcK on June 21, 2009, 01:53:12 PM
Well, I tried... But with the extenders & stuff, The Dual Perm has to be on the side or on the top.

- If i put it on the side, The Hammers will not go to the other side, That means 2 DPs = Unrealistic.
- If i put it on the top, Since the bot has to be a CUBE, The weapons will be too high.

You need to have a VERY good bot to fight in tournaments... My best bots are almost the same as some old bots that won old tournaments, IDK how i make bots that are SIMILAR to other bots, And the ones i make different suck.
And noobies like me have almost no chance in winning a tournament :(
There should be a special "Noobie Onleh >:C" Tournament :D

And building from scratch is almost the same as editing existing bots, The only diference is that some parts are already thre & the chasis maybe diferent than what you wanted... Making a chasis isnt soo hard, You just dont have to make a HUGE block (Like i used to do).
The hardest part of a bot (When youre done thinking on what to buld & stuff) is wiring up the wheels... Putting parts is easy ;P

Wedge is ok, but I would've used a double one. But that's just my style.
You can make the setup a lot lighter on the tite sheet by either a normal 45-degree angler, or a skirt hinge (hinge might be better).

My question: How much power does the Dual Perm draw exactly? They told me around 100... But IDK how much
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Urjak on July 21, 2009, 03:46:12 PM
Man.... why does that look familiar....

Anyway though, pretty good bot. You don't see many Sheck Spinners with hammers on flails. I am not sure how effective they are, or if you would be better off with solid attachment, but as far as I can see... nice bot.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on July 21, 2009, 03:51:47 PM
Thankz :P

But Iv'e seen that flails do more damage if you stop the motor...
If you stop the Dual Perm just before youre gonna hit an enemy, The whole thing stops & the flails BOOST the whole spinner to the other side, Faster than the motor.

IDK if its coz i have hammers on or if that happens with every weapon :)

I actually think it looks pretty good, but I'd still call it unrealistic; you'd need a big gap in the front of the bot to accomodate that spikes. And I don't quite know why you bothered building holes for the wheels. A bit more trial and error is required there I think.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on July 21, 2009, 05:56:36 PM
Wholes for the wheels are a good way to lose alot of uneeded space, Is more weight... Since i wanted to put 4 Bursts, I tought it would pass 800kg :P

Also, It could be realistic, The extender work goes like this: 20cm Extender, 40 cm Extender & 20cm Extender...
Its possible to put the chassis armour beneath the 20cm extenders, Theyll be exposed, But there would only be 4 small hole for the extender to move.
 
Also for the sheet you could put extenders that go from the hinge to the sheet, Holding it up (Since the Razors cut trough the whole Skirt Hinge.

Very ugly bot though :P
Title: LiNcK'z Botz

No.... RA2 calculates chassis weight by surface area as well... so you may not be saving much weight.

Is that a wammer?  It doesn't look like it has enough weapons (I'm guessing that's a middleweight).

And for wheel armor, I would try those side panels for shell spinners.

Unrealistic.  Rotate the snappers 180 degrees, and use razor tips instead of spike strips if you want to deal more damage.
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on August 03, 2009, 06:17:11 PM
It is realisic... The batteries are higher than the Extender's highest point. (I checked)

And i just wanted to make a flipper that also deals damage, Incase the match ends before i could flip the guy

Might change them for something else, But i dont think Razor Tips would be good...

New in v2.6w:

-Removed 1 Ant Bat.
-Changed Titanium-Sheet Wedge For Steel Ones/
-Removed Half-Sheets beneath The Chassis
-Fixed Wedge (Thats why its called 2.6w)
-Built to weight limit
-Changed Iron Spike Flipper for Spike Strip Flipper. (Leaves an Awesome mark when hitting someone)
-Changed Wedge Type.

*It hits 1K at each "Flip", The flipper is not very strong, But it CAN flip.

Well, Inspiration went B00M for some time.. And i just wanted to try something...
Some kind of "Gate" that ive mentioned ina lot of posts,
Gate = Open.
Oponent Goes In.
Gate = Close.
Oponent = Locked & Gets Smashed By Hammers.


Well.. I got "The Gate". Its supposed to be completly square, But im tired, So its not perfect
(Or close to being perfect :P)

I will also post pics of the Non-Functional bot...
(Just put everything in place but it wont work, Since keeping the gate closed is impossible)

Well, I made it... The Chassis is way to big & Its Overpowered btu i still want to post it:

Gate's default stance is Closed... When the enemy comes, I fire the motors & it opens & closes again, Locking the oponent
Or just used for a Friendly Pre-Match hug ;D

No Stats Since Its Only a "Test" :3

You gotta luv the look of the Gate :gunz:

Edit:

BATTLEPICZZ!!!

Well, it needs bigger extenders... But atleast he holds WIIDE LOAD & Keeps it from touching the plows :P

What about Hammers/Spikes hitting the oponent when the "Gate" holds it down?
Yush yush! But itll be a SHW then ;P

Use Beta Burst motor(s) for the hammers. JX's just cant lift that much weight.
Doing that might make it SHW, but it should be fine, because this is an experimental desing, correct?

you could .bot file edit to make the chassis smaller
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Urjak on September 01, 2009, 03:59:13 PM
I would try to use razors, as they deal much more damage than beaterbars. (EDIT: I see that you have a bit of a theme going with the beaterbars, so I will leave that be).

I would also try to make your chassis more rectangular and thinner, as this will decrease weight while still allowing you to fit in all of your components.

EDIT: Roboman, do not encourage him to botfile edit. Shrinking the chassis really won't help the bot very much, and its pretty cheap anyway.

Rotating wheels when you attach them fixes automatic turning. If your bot starts going to the left just rotate your left wheel Counter Clockwise or right wheel Clockwise. Same the otherway around if it goes to the right.

But it can revert itself if its flipped... You Fire the spies... The bot tries to get back up, But it fails thanks to the wedge, The power of it coming back + the wheels accelerating/reversing makes it go back to normal

Unrealistic. The weapons and their extenders go trough batteries, atleast seems to me that they do.
Make it so that they dont and they would be atleast decent.

If part of the extenders could be cut off and still work, it's fine.

None of the extenders go throw Bats...
4ft3rZh0cK Uses 20cm extender-40cm extender-20 cm extender
Theyre attached to each other (Vertically)
Zr4p-4t4cK Uses 20 cm entender & 20cm extender
The 2nd entender is attached to the top of the other (Horizontaly)

And there are batts in those Spaces were the extenders dont pass :P

Also, The Razors NEVER enter the chassis.. Theyre always outside & just do a half circle around the bot.

Can you provide a few better views of Aftershock? So I can be sure about it, since it looks to me like the extenders are really deep in the batteries.

Yup, You were right (IDK How i dindt see it)... I removed the 3rd row of Battle packs and added some Ants (Realisticly placed)

It has 10 Ants & 4 Battlepacks now :3

Imma check Zc4p-4t4cK to see if i did something like that too :S

Outside

(http://i37.tinypic.com/244pnpc.jpg)
Inside

:arrow: The Control Board is between the 2 Battlepacks at the back...

:!:Only bad thing, Is that sometimes the Polycarbonate extenders get hit -> 3 or 1 razor(s) go down. Usually 3 :(

:!: Uses same Chassis as 4ft3rZh0cK, Only removed some extra back Chassis (Around the wheels)

:!: Biggest Change: Motors changed for Mags!!! :biggrin:

:!: Titanium Sheet added on the top for extra armour :evilsmile:

:!: Kinda slow...

Uses Titanium x10 Armour


Ill soon post Battle pics & a Pic with the whole team HQ :3

The Top Sheet IS Realistic, Its just like putting thicker armour on the top
Like 10mm Titanium on the sides etc... & 13/15/20mm Titanium on the top.

Hmm... if it's too slow, try to fiddle around to get Drive-Eteks on that. If possible, test if 2 JXes are better than 4 mags or not. :D
Title: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on September 22, 2009, 06:57:47 AM
Pwn's right. That is clearly too slow for a popup.

Also i think 10mm Ti armor is overkill on that since you already have consequent external armor on that bot.

It sends them flying the whole time :P

The real weapons thoguh (The teeth) arent that effective, Im usually pasted on the oponent with the hammers, Pushing him or him pushing me, So the teeth dont get much space to get speed... That means, Not much points
But its durable as heck :3

Also, The teeth dont get destroyed easily, Since they go out, Hit and right back in... The hammers take all the shots.

Just one question: (The noly thing i care about with this bot)
Is it original? :P

Metal Hinge's attachment point will AGOD if you do not switch to another building menu quickly enough. Just go to a different bot building menu and then switch back to attaching components and your wedge should work just fine.

Apart from the overpowerage and unrealistic-ness, it's not too bad.

About the AGODing wedges, you just have to rebuild the wedges like 5+ times to make them work right... but not a reason to abandon RA2 like that !

It would be realistic if the disk attached to the end of the motor (If would also be more effective), But it just doesnt...
It can only attach there :S

The disk's attachment point is the problem... It seems that it attaches a bit lower than its supposed to, Look:
(http://i46.tinypic.com/2u59z4j.jpg)

One way to solve this is to attach something to the motor & attach the blade over it, but i got no extra weight for that :\
 
Edit to bot: I put a Perm 132M now.. Soo the disk is even further foward, giving it more range ;D

The wedges are a bit heavier than need be and your weapon doesn't have enough HP I think. I may be wrong but I think 6 ants is just over what you need. But not a bad bot.

About the weapon... I dont want it to be very heavy, Soo i cant put very strong weapons :S
About the wedges, Youre right... But i has nothing else to put weight in (I cant get Titanium x5 Armour with Polycarbonate wedge by 2KGs)

Maybe if i take 1 ant away & make the wedge polycarbonate i can upgrade to Titanium x5, But im not sure if its worth it..
Or maybe ill upgrade the weaponry... How much KGs does a Perm 132 support?
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Reier on December 10, 2009, 10:08:03 AM
Well put a backup weapon or something then.
Perm 132s can spin a lot more than what you have at the moment. Maybe 2 60kg hammers, but that's about the limit.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on December 10, 2009, 10:26:37 AM
I put 4 Ripping Tooth instead of Hypno Tooth & Downgraded the wedges to Polycarbonate...
But theres another problem: The weapon is too high for most of the MWs >_<
Putting it lower would make it unrealistic
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz

Not so sure if ripping teeth are a good choice- they have normals.

If you don't did that already, go and have a look at the .txt's in Components folder. You have a lot of useful information there.

Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Clickbeetle on December 12, 2009, 09:59:39 PM
Why the normals anyway..? How are they usefull?

Because it's unrealistic that a tooth that's only sharp on one side would do damage with the flat side, and DSL is supposed to be realistic.  Or at least more realistic than stock.

But in DSL3, components with normals will have increased stats to make up for it.

I call this unbalanced. It's not very difficult to build a design that negates the effect of normals...
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on December 13, 2009, 10:17:37 AM
Why dont he just makes all components without normals?
Lets say there are 100 weapon in the game, 17 have normals & 13 of those arent used coz of the normals.
Those are 13 weapons lost that nobody ever uses...
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: JoeBlo on December 13, 2009, 10:24:19 AM
as said before think of a weapon like a ripping tooth,

hitting a robot the opposite way is going to do 0 damage in real life to you need to implment that in the game

I am not afraid of normals myself and Have made effective designs with them

I think increasing damage at the cost of it only being at that one point is a good idea 
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on December 13, 2009, 06:42:56 PM
But its not completly true... For exsample:
You have a weapon with a sharp side & a flat side, Why would it have normals if the flat side could also do some damage (While spinning), It does less damage ofcourse, But it does damage, Like a super mini hammer :P

Heres an example:
(http://i47.tinypic.com/2rp455e.png)

The weapon on the rigth could do damage from the sharp side aswell as from the flat side.
The weapon in the right is just a retarded beater bar ^^"

You can smack someone with the sharp side of a knfie & Cut them but you can also smack them with the flat side of it & still hurt them :P

Its all about the strenght of the hit, Not the form... Everything does damage, But differently.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: JoeBlo on December 14, 2009, 08:12:26 AM
I understand that, which is why things like hammers or irons shouldn't have normals

but think of other things like the teeth

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/68673tooth.PNG)

they would do virtually no damage the other way

Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz

didnt we work out the vlad spikes do damage at the tip and the thin sides ? making them realistic as the flat side would only dent a robot IRL

I would recommend using just 4 ants, and you don't need that much top armor, maybe just a couple of metal skirts.  Add a halfsheet to the bottom and add more weapons with the leftover weight.

Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: JoeBlo on December 14, 2009, 11:28:59 PM
great to see another person innovating normals  :mrgreen:

also those are battle axes if I am not mistaken, Gothic ones are single sided

defiantly overpowered for an SnS you can get away with much less, I use 4 ants on Betting Limts which had to power 4 NPC Fasts and 8 flamethrowers

bottom armor is more important then top armors as hammers will have trouble fighting SnS robots

About the bottom armour, I cant put it... The motors prevent me from putting a halfsheet down there, I wish there were bottom extenders :S

And IDK wich of the 3 wheels i can put are better; The N-14 the Fatboy (IDK If Its The Real Name) or the Muddy Wheel.
I chose the N-14 (Or N-12) wheel, It seemed better..?

It also has one HUGE weakness... If the DSL Bars on the top get destroyed, The polycarbonate extenders beneath are dead X_X

& i changed the armour to Plastic x1 (Incredibly bad since it doesnt have bottom armour)
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: The Ounce on December 15, 2009, 04:16:29 PM
Out of those three wheels, the best would be the Fatboys, but the ideal choice for this would be vlads; they have the same HP and grip as Fatboys, but are also smaller and lighter, and give you a better ground clearance.

For the weakness, try to attach each of the bars to multi extenders, and see if you can get better armor.   :approve:

Post by: LiNcK on December 15, 2009, 05:48:07 PM
I have the same thing :P

One multi extender on the baseplate & a polycarbonate extender on it.
The bar attached to the top of the Polyc extender & The other at the bottom of it...

What i meant is that if the DSL bar breaks, The extender beneath it will be exposed, And like its polycarbonate its gonna break very easily :P

@ Reier: Those hammers you got have ALOT less HP than DSL ones (Atleast thats what it says in their Preview xP)
Thats why i never use those hammers...
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: The Ounce on December 15, 2009, 05:56:12 PM
Well, the polycarbonate extenders are small enough that they won't get hit often, but if you're that worried, then try my setup; it's slightly lighter and the extenders are invulnerable.

And those are 60kg sledgehammers, like the 30kg ones, but twice as much HP and weight, making them on par with the DSL hammers.

Post by: Naryar on December 16, 2009, 09:15:35 AM
25 kg hammers have normals, and i think 5 ants would be fine here.

Rule of thumb - 1 ant battery for each spin motor is enough for any bot (so 3 ants would be enough here), but 3 ants are really a minimum since they won't last long, so if you're on the heavier weight classes it is wise to add more ant batteries than the minimum for battery longevity.

You need more battery power for bursts though - as far as i tested, any burst motor works fine with roughly 75% of it's total power.

can't you put a razor in the center of each disc as well?  I think that would be worth ditching a couple beater bars for... the more moving blades you have on those discs the better.

The tite sheet as a bot holder's a nice touch. Same goes to the side beater bars. :D

But you can get the weight for more weapons if you used flipper segments instead of DSL bars and anglers. And swap the two tite sheets for a single tite sheet. Much stronger for the same weight, though you'll lose the awesome side beater bars. But at least you can spend the weight on stronger weapons. :D

Apart from the fact that half-Ti sheets fail at armor (1400 or 1500 HP only for 15 kg) and it is shamefully overpowered, it looks good.

Nope, But i can put an Iron Spike on it...

The problem is that IDK if the motors can hold 10KGs more & Still spin fast :P

Tried to do that, But only sometimes the wedge on the Hinge goes a bit lower than its supposed to go in the bot lab...

DesTroy4h! is the new version of Meat Tenderizer :P

Also, The tite sheets were too angled in Meat Tenderizer & Big bots couldt really get past them to be destroyed...

And the wedge failed, So the bot failed

The Beater bars dont really do much, They mostly prevent the oponnent from slipping away from the wedges when im turning...
And why would i turn if i already caught the bot?

Well, heres what the halfsheets do:

I quite like this bot, but a few things need to be fixed.

1. Listen to Naryar. These ramplates suck unless attached directly to the bottom of the chassis.
2. these multiextenders could easily be swapped for something with moar hp like extenders or flipper segments.
3. Those are drive motors. Either switch to the weapon motor ones or use something else.

That's a dumb statement. Just because you can make a creative or original bot, doesn't mean that it's okay to ignore advice for the bot. That advice can easily help the bot perform better.

Also, I have a theory...
Putting the small (5KGs) Control Board uses less weight than expanding the chassis to put the (4KGs) Blue Control Board.
 
The best armour choice for the bot right now is Steel x3, Titanium x5's weight is 25 & That would make the bot weight 152.7KGs
And Plastic x10 is 27 soo, Even worse :P
The lowest one after 25 is 20, Wich is Steel x3

Hmm... I think gripier wheels...
With grippier wheels you can use all the motor's strength
While having an E-Tek with non grippy wheels woul not use all the E-Teks power :P
 
Also, Denpends on the motors themselves xP
Of course a TWM Drive with technos is worse than an E-Tek with Rubber wheels xP

Here's a new one i built, Its kinda a Non-Cubed remake of GTFO Me, My entry for CC2
This is Not So Innocent
 
Unlike my CC2 entry, This bot is stable, Its faster & It also spins faster.
Just the hammers were downgraded.


The name came from the fact that the bot is blue, Not a frightening color & But it has alot of "Evil" decals & its also deadly.
So, It looks a bit innocent by the blue, But it really isnt :P

Those flipper segments look kinda brittle on a HW. Attach the sledges directly to the chassis and find a way to lower your drive, so the whole bot angles downward.

Use BSGs instead of Mags since they have the same torque. Also, I'm not sure if the JXes are worth it since you're just clamping the opponent and not hammering them. Try a version with BSG clamps and see if they clamp well. :D
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Clickbeetle on March 16, 2010, 10:20:49 PM
Hmm... I would ditch those side plows (the clamps ensure nobody's getting to your flank) and upgrade the front ram plate to a heavy plow.  Then with the extra weight from using BSG's (and therefore less batteries) you should get a wedge on there so you can trap bots other than HS's.


Good design there, horizontal trappers have been tried but none looked very effective.  That one on the other hand looks big enough to actually hold bots, and it has a good weapon to boot.

Thanks ;D
I tried using BSGs for the gate thingy, But as far as i remmeber there nos way to make the BSGs go like that :S
The BSGs have the same torque, But will it raise the 2 spike sticks fast enough?
Or will they raise them at all? (Ive had problems with that bot when putting hammers xP)

but obviously I like it as its a clamp :P

to me the flipper extenders are first to go.. and I assume it doesn't open the clamps when the weapon fires (such in the bottom picture) otherwise it wont be very effective

I remember putting 2 70KGs hammers on with Mags the first time i built it, They didnt raise up again :S
I dont understand what u mean with the plows...
 
to me the flipper extenders are first to go.. and I assume it doesn't open the clamps when the weapon fires (such in the bottom picture) otherwise it wont be very effective

The flipper extenders are there coz sheets dont have those side attachment points like extenders :\
The arms start off closed, When it fires it opens & Ofcourse, it closes again... SO you gotta time it right.
I couldent think of any other way to do it, There are no bursts like those controlled Pistons that stay extended.
 
It can fire the weapons when the gate is being fired to... But the thing is to trap the bot inside first, To then smash it with blows :P
Its kinda hard to use coz of the multiple things you gotta press, Like Space for the gate & (Left) ALT for the Razor Tips
So, Most of the time i just dont hit them coz i forget or i press space instead of ALT or stuff liek that xP

I really like Beerholder... I mean Beholder 3.  Very unique design.

For the arms though... could you use a T-minus or Techno arms instead? I think your arm stopped working because of the weight.  Those snappers probably have enough "oomph!" to swing them out once but will struggle to pull them back reliably.  Just a guess.   I also think the cumulative HP might be higher for the switch too.

If you save weight with that change you might be able to upgrade the weapons. I am totally guessing though, because I am too tired to look up the parts and add up all the weights. (i am also not gifted with remembering all the component weights like Naryar).

Excellent work though!
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on March 21, 2010, 07:19:00 PM
Thankz!! ;DDD
Its not coz of the weight i think... Coz it was the first time it failed & I have used it a few times :P
Ill see if i can change the arms, I need something with ALOT of HP though, Holding a grinder liek WIIIDE LOAD has to be possible xP

Also, I figured out i could use Mag motors instead of Small JGS (Forgot the name ^^')
But no BSGs coz they dont have attachment points beneath...
 
With mags i would have 20KG extra :3
 
EDIT:
;OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I managed to put BSGs instead of those Mags i was gonna put, But imma go to sleep now, Ive got a week FULL of exams right now.
We just amke the exams & Go home to study for the next day.
Right after that im leaving to USA for 8 days, Sooo... I wont be around for 2 weeks to finish BeHolder 4.0
 
But i was thinking, Is it better to use the arms to hold off the oponent or to smash them with more weapons?

Even though there is space between the BSGs to place the ants without having them intersect, they are still intersecting, thus unrealistic.  I would rebuild the chassis so you can fit all of the components inside efficiently.

Also, use 5mm plastic; lighter and stronger than 3mm titanium.

Heyyyyy. Welcome back. How was your trip?

Bot looks cool.  How does it fare in battle?

It was good, It turned out that my parents had tickets to a Cruise, When I woke up one day I saw them laying on the table along with a letter xP
 
I came back a few weeks ago, But I didnt really know what to build...
I started checking & Testing my bots & I noticed DesTroy4h!'s wedge failed
I desided to re build it, Noticed it had Battlepacks so i changed them...

Then i was wondering if i would put more weapons in the Wheel Shield & Used a disc.
 
I changed the wedge coz the other one was horrible, Soo.. If i kept the Small Wedge, I guess it would be the same
So i switched to sheets :P
Also changed the 3 Half Sheets to 1 Tit Sheet like some of u suggested (Finally found a way)
 
I guess you dont care abotu what i changed, Soo to answer your question:
It does fairly well, It doesnt have the best wedge ever, But it manages to get beneath bots & Because it has so much weapons it doesnt get disarmed quickly :P
 
EDIT:
I was wondering what i could do with the 25KGs i have left... I have no idea, Since Adding piglets to the wheel dics is too much weight xP

Everytime i make a bot, I just make a small chassis & Then think of what to build with it... (Besides with "Original" bots like BeHolder)
I usually make a chassis like 30 times to perfectly fit the components :P

Killalot drills have normals = bad choice for a VS

The weapon doesn't looks symmetrical as well. You NEED a symmetrical weapon for 90% of spinners.

Ok, Ill change the weapons (Those are Vlad Pokers BTW, Also have normals :P)
And it is symmetrical:

Okay... So today I was testing how much Razors I could fit in a BSG with it still being fast.
With 4ft3rZh0cK I was putting 3/4 Razors on each BSG with 2 Polycarbonate extenders...
Today I tried a BSG's speed with certain ammoutn of weight on it & Decided to put 7 Razors on each, With 7 Multis
It was speedy enough, So I decided to ditch 4ft3rZh0cK's 4 BSGs & Just put 2 with 14 Razors on them...

Also, I tried to do the same as with Silver Nightmare, But I have a problem with this:
(http://i41.tinypic.com/34iis6a.jpg)

I tried AGODing the 1st Sheet, But Ive been trying like 1 hours & Still nothing...
I havent really tried anything else, And I have no idea on how to be able to attach them, It seems they overlap by less than 1mm >_<

Sooo, Any suggestions?
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Urjak on May 11, 2010, 05:54:51 PM
You could axle load the skirt hinge, then use the Effe glitch to attack your first sheet. When you have the skirt hinge back to normal and the first sheet floating in space, attach the second one and you should be all good.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on May 11, 2010, 06:02:56 PM
I think I saw videos on Snapper & Axle Loading... I still dont know how I could apply it to this? IDK any glitches xP
Also, Ive never heard of the Effe Glitch :S
 
EDIT:
I tried the Axle Loading on the Skirt Hinge... But you cant attach the Hinge to motors... Only to the chassis :S
 
EDIT 2:
Would it be possible to do with BFE? With AGODing I managed to attach the 2nd sheet, But not straight...
Maybe I could put it like that & Rotate it with BFE?
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Sage on May 11, 2010, 06:42:53 PM
OH OH OH You can do it without BFE!

Watch my video on Advanced Snapper loading, because one of the tricks in there is what you need.
Basically snapper load the skirt hinge out, attach the sheet (but don't click), move one of your drive motors so the skirt hinge moves back, NOW click and your sheet should float in space, and then attach your second sheet. And then garage and back.

Just put a copal directly on the hinge and snapper load it, that's what i do. It'll probably take some time, but you can do it.

I think you're wasting weight on all that extender work by the way.

JXs would be good, if you still have weight you could use irons instead of razors? I know nothing about popups in DSL, so I don't know if that will help though. Maybe add some side and/or bottom armor?
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 17, 2010, 05:00:50 AM
Irons aren't damaging enough to be put to good use on DSL popups. It's not like in stock where there's just a 0.2 (if i remember well) piercing difference between the two weapons.

If RA2 had common sense, then yes, it would. But Heavyweights are from 399.0 up to 800kg. You can still have a 399.0 Middleweight if the chassis is exactly the right size, because of the way rounding works in the game, I think.

Are you sure? ;O
I pretty much used a Battlepack since It would be 4.5KG lighter than 3 Ants, That plus the big Control board would be 5.5KG less wich was used for the Multis

I guess what you mean is remove the Battlepack & Put 2 Ants instead (A total of 4)
Can you upgrade from Plastic x1 to x5 with only 2KGs? :P

Wouldent the Battlepack STILL be better than 2 Ants?
I always use A battlepack in exchange for 3 Ants when im short of weight :3

Post by: NFX on January 18, 2011, 01:44:22 PM
BGS's only need 2 ants for maximum power, I think. So you should get 2kg to play with out of it. And going from Plastic 1 to 5 with only 2kg is impossible. I think, with your chassis, you would be very lucky to get Tite 1 on there, if anything at all. Perhaps using motors mounted internally might save a bit more weight.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz

2.5, technically, but 2 is perfectly fine.

I would have to extend the chassis (Both Legth & therefore width)
Making a 4x4/5x5 Chassis, Doubling the chassis' volume :P

Also, The Bursts use only 2 ants, But I put more to keep em on max power for longer...
Burtsts are not like spinning motors, They drain energy everytime fired, And after its below 80%, It starts firing less & Less strong (I think)
I wanna keep mine blowing stuff up the whole match, And like GK said, If its 2.5 plus the 2 for the drives it would be 4.5
5Ants, Or like a battlepack is a bit worse than 3 Ants it would be like im having 4.5 actually? :3

Sorry, I really dont wanna underpower a popup xD

No it's not.  If you start underpowered your burst will start weak.

Battlepack is fine.  It's crash cube arena we are talking about.  You don't need more power to last more than 20 seconds.  Just be full power for the first 2 hits to get that OOTA.

A lot of people misinterpreted what Click said.

I started off testing on a battery with infinite BEMIOR again.  With infinite BEMIOR, a burst motor will drain a number of power units equal to its MEMIOR/1.6 each time it is fired.  Why divide the MEMIOR by 1.6?  I have no clue, that's just how it works.  So a DDT with -500 MEMIOR will actually drain 312.5 PU each time it is fired.
This divide by 1.6 does not apply to how much amp you need to be full powered, it only means each burst takes amp/1.6 total power.  4 ants vs 5 ants makes noticeable difference on field test.

You don't have to take my word for it.  Just fire your burst 'while driving' with 4 ant, then with 5 (or in this case battery pack).

You don't have to take my word for it.  Just fire your burst 'while driving' with 4 ant, then with 5 (or in this case battery pack).

So, Its about how much energy is available when fired?
Like, If you have 4 ants & Shoot it while stopped it would work, But if its driving, The wheels are also taking energy so there's less available & The Bursts cant get their full power (If theres not enough energy)

Example:

Energy: 10amps
Energy used: Burst  7, Drive: 0
Burst will fire at 100% Power coz theres 10 available & 7 In-Use

But if youre driving it would be something like
Energy used: Burst 7, Drive 4
7+4=11
Max Available Energy is 10 so the Bursts wont be at full power, But itll use 6amps since thats the max available while driving
(Ofcourse the 10amps from the batts decay every sec)
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: 123savethewhales on January 18, 2011, 02:24:35 PM
Amps never decays.  Total battery power decays, and things stays in the same power bracket until total power hits 75%.

Basically, 2 ant and a battlepack lets you fire at full power while driving until you use up 12600 of it's power.

Firing a burst while driving with 4 ants will put you on the first underpower bracket from the start.

Well!!! After some time of inactivity I finally got myself on RA2 to make something Ive been wanting to do for quite some time ;D
This idea came from thinking about flippers, The way they flip made me think that it was a bit uneffective, Coz they basically push you behind them :P
So I thought about this & At first, I planned on putting the burst inside, Making it stick out through the chassis, But I realized its impossible in RA2...


Well, Anyways, I put it on the back, This is just a prototype, Just to test the power & Stuff of it, It still has no wedges & The batts & Stuff arent really symmetric like I like it :3


It still has no name, So if you could help me with that ill be happeh ;D


Anywyz, Here are the results:
I decided to make a little thingy of how I made it coz I was bored, And this entertained me for quite a while :3

So I gotta real 100+ pages a day to make it, So Im basiacally waking up at 1 pm everyday (We are on vacation) & Reading till like 8/9pm then playing a bit, Checking FB & Stuff & Sleeping xD


So I dont really have much time for RA2, But when I have the time Ill probz add something on the back to keep it from flipping over when firing (Sometimes it even flies... Annoying)
Ill also add a wedge & Check the weight... Coz I have NO IDEA how much it weights & See what ill do , IDK... Im on a hurry :P

It's not original, it's a complete ripoff of Mike's bot.
I can't seem to find "Mike's bot"


I havent really seen a bot like that one before :P
Id like to see it though ;D
I made one, it's in my showcase in a massive picture of noob bots.

Here is a flipper bot called Asplode. A few months back, I tried to make a "piston flipper", but I couldn't get an effective design, so I decided to resurrect the design in DSL
This bot has a HUGE Havoc every time the Storms are launched, bigger than any Rupts.
A time lapse of a flip will be up soon.

That :3


-
I just finished it & It seems to be WAAAY less powerful than before (I shortened the chassis) for some reason... Atleast it doesnt fly around when it fires :P
Tried using the flame burst thingy but it was too short to do any real flipping, Even though its faster (It did look more awesome though ;D)
Also, I added the wedge in the old version & It didnt AGOD, This one did... I just wish I had saved the other one >_<
Anywayz, I had ALOT of weight left so the armour is Steel x10, Had nothing else to use it on D:


Anywayz, I named it Mini Mayhem coz it (Used) to just make stuff fly around, It isnt as powerful now for some reason :\

You should make it a flipper and use a single BSG.

So possibly the combination of speed and burst torque can toss opponents OOTA.

Also steel 10 is overkill.

It can push stuff OOTA, Thats the point of it, Its just some weird kind of flipperish thingy :P

The Robot Formerly Known As Silver Devil

Interesting chassis shape, I don't normally do that sort of thing. Good use of Hax Mode, though, this is one of those instances when it could definitely come in handy. It looks a bit narrow to me, though, it could get smacked away easily. How does it fare against HS or Sheck Spinners?

When hit from the side it turns completely (Doesnt fly off though) luckily because of the wheels being so centered & So fast it can turn really quick (Like 360 degrees in <1sec)
Its really hard to control manually for that reason, But AI dont have that prob :P


It does well agaisnt Sheck spinners, But it tends to loose its razors when attacking... It does push (HW) spinners around though so yeah, I think it can fare agaisnt MW ones ;D (Its a MW anyways)
HSes though are a prob, If it cant get under their wedges itll be launched to death, Sadly it AGODs from the right side too so yeah :\

Wedge test:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/91209screenshot_9.png)

It DOES get under almost all the bots I tried it agaisnt but only if I hit them with the left wedge first (Since the right one is AGODed)
FML with this >_<


EDIT: Well, Your advice on my other thread seemed to work :O
I removed both the Hinges & Wedges then P/Bed the game & Attached both again, When testing it didnt AGOD :DDD
Imma test it again now :3

Thanks, Could be useful but I almost never have the need to build an impossible chassis :P
I do remember I needed one for a bot I had in mind though... Hopefully Ill remember later :O

Anyways, I wanted to ask what the difference is between component fracture & Actual DP.
I have to choose between (Med) Beater Bars [170Frac, 250DP, 1000HP] & Cutting Tooth Tooth [300DP, 1400HP] & Matilda Tooth [200DP, 1500HP]
Im very tight weight-wise so I need the most efficient of components ._.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/38682screenshot_11.png)


Only have 98KGs left,  Its using Plastic x1 so I would have to upgrade that & Still needs the wedges, So Its <60KG for the weaponry.
Putting 4 razors on each side already uses up 56KGs but I still need 8 more weapons for the middle spinner...
Maybe I can change that TWDR3 for another piglet to save some weight... IDK how well it would fare though. What do you guys recommend? (Its a MW)

Changed the place of the side spinners: (Also put the control board under the TWDR3 instead of behind it)
(http://img4up.com/up2/40157914364941440331.png)


With this new design the bots are always hitting everything. The side spinners are a bit angled & Spinning inwards so anything that hits them bounces a bit inward (Causing it to bounce again either forward tr to the other side were the other spinner awaits)
If you keep going forward while hitting the opponent theyre pretty much trapped in there :3

Only prob is that bots tend to go ontop the spinners if pushed too hard, Might lower the titanium sheet a bit to make it a more steep ascension... Hopefully the bots would then just hit the middle spinner & Bounce off instead of going over it :P

Metal Hinge wedges = Poor show. But don't worry, I say that to everyone who does it. =) You only see wedges like that on the side of bots, such as Panic Attack, for some protection. I think it should do fine without wedges, you could upgrade the armour instead. It reminds me of Disconstructor from Series 7 of the UK wars somewhat.

Im not sure about the disc either, Seemed to be the best one available with 7500HP & 332DP but DSL is famous for having alot of useless components :P

Id add some razors orso but then it would deviate more from the realistic feel it should have...

It might be cool to somehow angle the disc downwards (or just angle the chassis) then it can hit the lower bots. (Why am I saying this when my entry is BFE'd thin?)

Post by: NFX on January 30, 2012, 03:43:23 PM
What you could do is add something like a Large DSL Disc, or 100cm Disc, and add a few Cutting Teeth, or Beater Bars onto that. Besides, it really doesn't matter if you use useless components, as long as it looks cool. Take a look at Cage Of Mirrors in my showcase, I entered it into B4ttlebots. Looks beautiful, but can't fight for <expletive>.

Yes and no. For example a Battlepack (http://www.robotmarketplace.com/products/BPK-4600N-24.html) battery is made up of "C" sized cells and provides 5 amp hours and in this case 24v and is commonly used in MW's. But most MW's and other weight classes are switching to a 'LiPo' battery.

Upgraded armor to 5 Titanium (Probz the only real upgrade)
Removed the wedge (Since its invertible & Its my entry for BoF2)

Post by: LiNcK on May 24, 2016, 08:58:10 PM
Ayyy! Been a while. I decided to get back into RA2 for the time being so here's a couple of hours of work:
(https://i.imgur.com/FO3bvJh.png)
Most of the work was spent trying to make the chassis pixel perfect TBH - I was trying to stack 2 sets of batteries on top of the TWR3s in an L shape but I could only get the left side to actually work so I gave up after a while and just extended the chassis and plopped 2 ants on the front instead. Then I ran into the problem of trying to slant the front so it doesn't clip through the spinner while still getting the ants to fit. RA2 is terribly inefficient at those sorts of small tune-ups.

I figured I'd try the Heavy Spikes because they seemed to have great stats and didn't hit the ground. If they suck I can always change them to something that's useful like Heavy/Light Teeth or Beater Bars.

Talking about stuff maybe being useless, I noticed DSL 2.2 has a couple of new weapons and all around better descriptions for everything which is great! I had a hard time finding information about which of the new items are useful, which are not, what is glitched, what descriptions are wrong, etc. though. Any idea where I could see which items are good in DSL 2.2 and which are bad? I remember many items being practically useless unless you were trying to make a very novel bot back in 2.1 and IDK if that's the case for 2.2 or if everything works as advertised.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Badger on May 25, 2016, 06:33:46 AM
That control board is slightly stacked into the ant, literally the worst bot ever.

Is that a singe skirt hinge? We've found out that only the centre attachment point on skirt hinges are really wedge-y. And in DSL2.2 having fewer, heavier batteries is more efficient I think, ants aren't very good anymore.

I would also look into downgrading the drive and upgrading the weaponry. I can't remember if DSL2.2 has square extenders but if it does you could use a single one of them instead of a disc to save a decent amount of weight.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Naryar on May 25, 2016, 06:37:10 AM
A drum would probably be lighter than a disc, yes, or even the omni extender.

And yes, better use a WP836E on that. Ant spamming is no longer a thing in DSL 2.2.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: LiNcK on May 26, 2016, 06:32:25 PM
I updated Silver Beast, incorporating some of the tips.

(https://i.imgur.com/ebvm42Z.png)

I didn't really manage to get other batteries in there besides ants due to how small the body is and how there's a huge motor breaking it up in the middle but a little inefficiency on the batteries doesn't seem that bad.

With the extra weight from losing the disc and downgrading the drive I managed to get 2 heavy beater bars in the front. I was thinking it could turn into a rammer when the razor tips got taken out, even if its a bit slow. Its also good frontal armor for when the spinner gets taken out and the AI still decides to ram the enemy. Hopefully the enemy weapons would be so damaged by then that the bars manage to take them out, leaving me to be the only armed bot in the fight.

I put the Razor tip on the top of the "spinner as both armor (its 5 different block extenders so quite vulnerable) and to be able to hit taller bots more reliably or maybe get some hits in on top of other bots (Like when they ram me and their backs jump up a bit).

Lastly, I changed the skirt hinge for spring-loaded hinges (the free ones just went crazy), though IDK exactly how to make them as effective as possible. Right now they start a bit lower than the bot and end parallel with it. I also upgraded the actual wedge to curved ones rather than straight because I had the extra weight.
Title: Re: LiNcK'z Botz
Post by: Badger on May 26, 2016, 07:03:12 PM
You can probably do with 1 wedge, your bot is way too narrow to benefit from 2. Maybe consider widening the bot?

Also I think razors were nerfed to oblivion in dsl2.2 (though I may be getting confused with IF). Maybe replace them with beaters or teeth or something?

I used 2 big wedges mostly as a literal "catch all" - I figured even if someone fully misses me on the side, the fact that my wedge extends over my side could mean that I go under them instead of me going under theirs. So a bit of a defensive bubble of wedge around me so to speak. I could always change them for straight ones of better materials though or use the weight to add sidepieces to hold enemies in place. Does it even matter how long wedges are? I've always done 120cm but it has always been a habit thing.

Razor tips have 1000HP, 400DP, 50 Fracture, and no normals. Heavy Teeth have much better DP but they have normals and I didn't wanna run into "they hit the top of the spinner" situations in which I would deal no damage. I could sacrifice 100 DP for another 1000HP if I use Iron Spikes or sacrifice 160DP for another 1500HP if I use Heavy Beaters though... That's worth considering, specially since many fights are won simple due to more durable weaponry. There's probably other options out there that became useful with 2.2 too but I figured Razor Tips would be safe picks.

i agree with badger. this bot has light drive and quite heavy wedges for a LW.

but maybe it actually works like that

Alright so I redid Silver Beast after downloading Serge's awesome component freedom patch and also took the time to make a new bot. Lack of collisions makes building a breeze and definitely satisfies my space efficiency obsession! I love it!

Here's both bots

As you can see I replaced the Razor Tips with Iron Spikes. This is because I feel the 1000 extra HP is worth the 100 DP sacrifice. I also took Badger's advise and toned the wedges down a little.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/44060SilverEdge.png)

Using the same principle of Iron Spikes > Razor Tips this one uses Iron spikes as weaponry. I might actually put Razor Tips back in though since I feel popups are more about DPS than sustain damage, if that makes any sense. I also tried to fit other battery types in there but there simply isn't space. I can get a WP836E in between the snappers but it would make the anchors go through the battery. It wouldn't be possible without Serge's patch so IDK where doing that stands in terms of realism so I figured I'd play it safe. I thinks anchors in Ironforge have no collision so maybe its considered realistic in DSL too?

I really want to push the wedges further in so the hinges are hidden behind the plates and the bot looks a lot better but IDK whether that would affect their performance so I went for the normal design to avoid risks. Does anyone know if not having the hinges at the absolute furthest have any effect on their performance?

Lastly, I put the start position of the spikes all the way in the back for it to function as a rammer when the snappers lose power. My first thought to make it work with AI is to calculate after how many firings the snappers lose effectiveness and set that as a hard limit for how many times the AI is allowed to fire the weapons, then have it switch to the rammer part of the AI. IDK if such a thing is possible to do though. I'm planning on learning how to AI so I can do it myself since I've decided all bots in this Team will have dual roles (becoming rammers once their main role is taken out). I feel having to AI these would be extra annoying for people that end up having to AI them for tournaments or an AI pack.

Looking forward to your thoughts!

i'm gotta have to try building DSL standard with the no collision serge patch. see if we can actually make this type of building legal, as long as we respect visual meshes.

This looks DSL standard legal to me.

That's a lot of weapons on a popup though. But maybe the magsnapper isn't bad like in DSL 2.1.

I did find that it seemed to fire a bit slower than I remember, even with Razor tips. I figured it was better due to the stats on the descriptions but I gotta admit IDK what they mean since its just numbers. The Magsnapper just had bigger numbers (11/75 vs. 2/60 I think) and used more power (60 vs. 40) compared to the green snapper so I figured it was better. JXs seeem to follow the same trend.

Been a while! I just downloaded 2.3, messed around for a bit, and made this:

I call it Shinobi and it's a MW at 398.8Kg. It's pretty straightforward, here's the insides:

Because the antenna is at a slight angle and the spinner spins super fast the antenna looks like it wiggles cutely while it attacks, it's the greatest thing ever lol

It's that DSL-S? Just to remind you, but DSL-IRL has grown a lot while you were absent, while DSL-S is dying (the most recent DSL-S tournament was Master of Disasters 2)

Also,hello and welcome back by the way. I'm a newbie player who joined two months ago, and there are a lot of other new players, like moziet, Bildschirm, FlamesOfIce, Nightraven Shade, Olister92, etc

Simple but effective. If you wanna free up some weight then you can delete one of the batteries, since the other one will be able to take you around 2:40 into a three minute match at full usage.

Hello, thanks for the welcome and welcome yourself as well :)

Does IRL building have more set rules nowadays? I remember from back when I was active it was mostly a matter of the person that could make the most effective bot while also convincing everyone else that it's still IRL winning, so building IRL always seemed like this awkward "try to skirt the fuzzy rules" thing to me. Plus, even when I was active my bots mostly sucked so I'm not sure I'll be entering many tournaments soon lol

We'll see how it goes in terms of me staying active, playing RA2, and building IRL. I do have a lot of free time for the coming month so hopefully I do get back into RA2.

Simple but effective. If you wanna free up some weight then you can delete one of the batteries, since the other one will be able to take you around 2:40 into a three minute match at full usage.

Oh that's great! I'll definitely be doing it and upgrading my armor then since I was 2KG overweight with the upgrade. Thanks!

it's still exactly that. unless you want to make it look cool but suck at fighting i guess.

may want to try attaching the hammers on their ends so there's a larger surface area. looks fine in all.
