He already sent me something, though that's probably slightly better...

Yeah, my robot for Badnik is pretty bad. But then again I'm a DSL Standard n00b so who really gives a s***.

EDIT: Badnik, are you accepting updates for BoF3? Because I might actually just send you that one, it's more interesting than my crappy n00b effort, and I'll build a new MW for TTTT instead of upgrading that one.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #362 on:** July 02, 2013, 11:10:58 AM »

Yeah I'll take as many updates as you want.

Merrick · « **Reply #363 on:** July 02, 2013, 02:20:04 PM »

Sweet, I'll send the new 'bot tonight.

You're wasting weight on extenders. Downgrade to aluminum and get more weapons.

Change the extenders to beater bars, change the extenders hold the drive to 40cm tite sheets and swap the motors for normal NPCS since NPC Fasts have awful HP (only 400 IIRC) or if you want to keep NPC fasts attach them directly to the chassis., put a halfsheet on the bottom and put a multi extender on top to hold 2 40cm tite sheets to protect the top side of the chassis.

the extenders ARE beaters dude they are not square and it's not DSL 3 since NPC fast are not DSL 3

The extenders are round titanium extenders, some of them have 2 razors, beater bars only have one attachment point on them.

wtf are you on about mystic

i think it would be better to have a 4x1 chassis, put the npc's in the chassis and then have 2 layers of weaponry, instead of it being really wide. also those sledgehammers are kinda useless. use the 5kg beater bars with razors and have the end razors angled slightly, so the rest of the weapons aren't touching the floor (though you can use angled skirts if you have enough weight and aren't facing the rule of 7). i think using vlads would be better also.

They're titanium extenders. You can't attach that much razors to beater bars.

Oops sorry i was wrong sorry 090901

AlexGRFan97 · « **Reply #373 on:** July 05, 2013, 10:00:14 AM »

No it's because of the texture on the extenders ending in a certain position that they look square at a distance.

Merrick · « **Reply #374 on:** July 10, 2013, 05:28:36 AM »

Running out of ideas, clearly.

If you're running out of ideas, then you clearly, do not "got you some swag".

Merrick · « **Reply #376 on:** July 10, 2013, 06:51:49 AM »

2 much swag 4 innovation

If you're running out of ideas, go out. Venture more in the real world and then you'll see new ideas will pop from nowhere or from ridiculous sources.

Merrick · « **Reply #378 on:** July 10, 2013, 07:15:22 AM »

I don't think I'm serious enough about this game to actually go out and hope inspiration for a freakin' game design strikes.

Domanating · « **Reply #379 on:** July 10, 2013, 07:26:21 AM »

Well it depends to where you are aiming for in life. I intend to go into robotics, so robots are a frequent thing in my mind.

If you are a Biology kind of guy for example (not saying you are), obviously you wouldn't be thinking on robots. You are here though, in GTM so there's an interest.
