Maybe you could rotate the vertical plow around like a radar...
Like if I had the weight... And that will make it even more unstable. I need to make another version.
Anyways, here's his big daddy: Grim Ripper 3
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/8952screenshot_6.JPG)
1mm Titanium, 2 long ramplates, 2 titanium sheets, the middle skirt is aluminium and the side ones are steel.
I was thinking of this as a deadly war machine... well NO! I was more than disappointed by this one. He's just... average.
Although it was way faster than I thought, he's also unstable and has crappy wedges (i don't know why). And the damage are pretty low for that heavy duty weapon.
Without mentionning that the weight distribution is bad and it often flips. And for no reason, the protected weapon motor sometimes falls.
I should perhaps add a third wedge (like InfCon and HazCon) and side skirts for stability.
Reier, just wait until you see my next HW.:biggrin:
Can't self-right.
Can't find a good name.
Worst name EVER.
SupermarioLolzerfan666
A bot named Louis XIV ???
Louis XIVOne of the worst kings we had. EVER.
Robotic DeathstarThe best of all, but i separated Death and Star because it looks better IMO.
Mr. TwigTwig is already taken. Although it's a decent name.
SunshineThat's the gayest bot name i've ever heard of.
Super Robotic DeathstarLooks stupid now.
DeathstarTeh generic.
Turd on a stickYou could make that kind of joke if you had decent building skills.
I wasn't being offensive to your bot. And it wasn't a joke...
Make a LW InfCon, or even better, a BW!
Nice bots, btw.
I thought a Juggler was 2 & a TS was 1.
Last edited by Naryar : Yesterday at 03:18 PM. Reason: I'm a typo specialist
It looks as efficient as an usual skirt hinge wedge (with actual skirts on it), maybe a little better, roughly the same weight, but it's INVULNERABLE. Like titanium half sheets fixed on your baseplate.
Is that a MW or a HW?
Destroyer is unstable as heck and both of Crashman and HnM can make it bounce everywhere.
Only issue about it is that he could hit HnM's top when bouncing and if that happens multiple times, my bot is dead.
Built two heavies this morning -
Asmodeus (technically, one of the most powerful demons according to Jewish legends)
Skirmish KOTH..
The piston that allow to 'self right like a charm' is not visible, it may be so inside the chassis
and it also may be the AIed surprise, but which weapon is attached and which direction does it flip (back to top or front to top) ?
(It's a SlashBack clone, same drive, same armor, nearly same weaponry. Weapon is two Mag Snappers. Not terribly powerful, but more durable than the DM one, being a KotH bot)
Skirmish DM : saw blade are not common weapons, deadly, they are very vulnerable to hammer. The choice of this atypical weapon is courageous. I trust you when you say 'You don't want this to go under your bot.' Speed will help your bot to achieve this goal, but, if fixed in a corner, Skirmish DM may suffer....
(Yes, I know. That bot sacrifices defense for offense and mobility. The saws go off pretty easily if i can't get under the opponent quickly. Wedge is pretty decent, it stands equal to Enfilad3)
skirmish 3TT : you've demonstrate many time your ability to slip under other bot's chassis. With a little luck, because it's a need on TableTop, this bot should go far. Moreover, the fact that you use 2 pistons is a good thing ; You may rock other bots on their side which is always a difficult position.
(Mag Snappers, not pistons. Also, i wish i could fix that wedge because it looks it's not even under the bot, still i can get under Insanity. But it has nothing exceptional. The self-righting, while pretty much unefficient, is VERY cool-looking)
Good job, good luck.
Well, i'm going to update/rebuild several DSL AI bots and submit them to Click for DSL 3.
(Battery updates could be changed considering the battery modification in DSL 3)
Updated :
-Insane Berserker's armor went from 1mm Al to 1mm Ti (it had weight left).
-Roly Poly is rebuilt: now invertible, went from 3mm Al to 3mm Ti, and doubled battery power. Probably going to update it more though.
-Mangy Mutt has a double metal hinge wedge (MUCH better) and doubled battery power. Probably going to rebuild it for less chassis space.
To Do :
-Shogun would need better wedges and perhaps more batteries.
-360 Arc Pounder's battery power is horrible.
-The Stuff of Champions sucks. Hard.
-Raving MAD could be rebuilt to be invertible.
-iNsAnItY could have one more ant battery
12 razors on 4 skirt hinges, 5 ants, flamethrower with a small air tank, NPC fasts, and 5mm titanium (maybe too much).
BBEANS6 prototype.
Well damage and speed are great, but it's much more unstable on hard hits than, say, Iron Fist.
Nearly lost against Ninja with that one. So i won't enter this.
Can you explain this part of your bot :
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/9931what9255afterburner3.jpg)
did you made it this way to protect yout bot, by need ? by necessity ?
Samurai has never been truly that great. The weapons don't work as pop-up weapons, they are far to long. They way you have your weapons means that it can only kill wedges, yet, with mag motor drive, it will be bulled by bots with NPC drive.
Samuri should have been a hammer or realstic popup.
I have something VERY powerful in mind guys.
I have never seen anyone (that I can remember) crop battleshots so quit complaining.
lol
i hope man menu dosnt see that...

I hope he doesnt see how u wrote his name... :\
There is some in the Starcore packs too.
Amma clone that in stock. XD
Tried a new gut-ripper design yesterday.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/53354mindlessaggression.PNG)
Mindless Aggression - 6 ants, 3mm Ti, metal hinge wedges with a half-Ti sheet, NPC fast drive and you can see all the rest.
Doesn't works well because the drumish things aren't angled enough, so they don't lift the bot over these spinning weapons like a good gut ripper would do.
wy is the CB orange?
and it isnt inside the chassis...
EMPTY SPACE
Dementia
Is it just me or are the perms uneven?
At least the bot's creative. :D
Bumble bee was caled Cheap win 4000, not 3000.
7123 when read upside down is EVIL?
also the aw=disco fevah
Was that Sage's bot ? :P
Barbie's. it was Barbie's bot.
Does it have technos?
Because the real thing had supper wide wheels.
I think it would look more accurate with a snowplow instead of a 30kg titanium sheet, otherwise, it looks ok.
Very nice! Are you planning to enter Badnik's "Replica Wars" tournament with it?
Does it have technos?
Because the real thing had supper wide wheels.
The sacrifice would be the lost of some wedge power, which might simply be too great to afford.
the inner 2 killalot drills intersect at the verrrrrrry tip.
I'm kinda confused on how you fit 8 ants in there :P
Also, hooray for another anti-shell! <3
i manage to add spinning weapon support to FBS.py.
Having a higher turnspeed would partially solve that issue, but fast bots can still flank when they clash. Anyway, what are the 4 razors underneath the tite sheet for?
I am fully aware it radiates creativity from every kg, but at least i made something slightly original with the additional armor :P
I got a few SnS's that I'm working on (the HW can take out Blade Wave)
I keep running into the same problem with my team(s) that I'd like to submit for the NAR AI v2. I had a sweet MW popup, but then Ounce and Reier and Pwn all built stuff similar, and I have no doubt that you're doing the same.
Here is a clue: NAR AI. Not POPUP AI.
Hmm... Not bad...
Lets just say Nar has the greatest bot in the tournament so far, but I think Sage's bot might outwedge it *hinthint*
but I think Sage's bot might outwedge it *hinthint*
interesting so it because something like a TS when inverted ? whats the weight ?
Ewwww Overkills...

Irrational Aversion - 5mm Ti, all NPC fasts, 10 ant batts, fancy halfsheet work for stability.
It's decent, nothing more (Nic doesn't wants killers for his pack)
Half the team is done, i will send the whole thing tomorrow.
Vertically. Hammer setup.
That thing actually looks half decent.
just a theory would it make one wedge better then the other from the way it spins ? :P
That's probably where the Mag snappers come in. I'll try building a version of TIB with BSGs to see if it can self-right.

But the weapon setup is schweet. :D
The original one is my design.
I thought the panel already acts as a stabilizer.
But since Flipjack has weapons now, you should probably do the same thing to Scout. :D
:O The only way to beat Caesium now is with a hammer bot...
I am somehow short of new building ideasYou are not the only one, I been out of ideas for quite some time now.
You are not the only one, I been out of ideas for quite some time now.
As for the bots, I think the motors and pistons can be mounted externally for both bots (not the npc fast of course).
but is the Machine stable when flipping
is it really a good idea to have the middle piston so far back like that?
Nice. Will the edited Beta Bursts be in NAR AI V3?

Also, how many flamers on the UHW? :O
Really, "awesomesauce" sounds gay....
why is it everything ends up sounding/ being gay to you ? :P
Nice. I especially like Scorcher. However, I don't think Crazed Arsonist has any offensive weapons besides the flamers. How are you going to defeat anything with it?
Shhhh, I don't think anybody else caught the joke. :gawe:why is it everything ends up sounding/ being gay to you ? :P
He's just upset 'cause he recently realized that he loves flamers :3

I only live to make Naryar happyThat sounded so wrong. XD
(particularly liked your FS Volcano apart from the unoriginal name)
For Joe, I DO like when you are building new flamethrower designs (particularly liked your FS Volcano apart from the unoriginal name) but not when you are entering flail glitch bumble balls in tournaments.

Well Nary, I think mine looks cooler.:P
Used 1WD for efficiency
Also behold, the GHEEEEYYYYest bot evar !!!1
...a match result that displeases you
:mrgreen:
The gayest bot is actually the most effective.
Because it RAPES you.
I am not skilled enough to remove menus :P
Most excellent !
Well, your poker's building quality is good enough for NAR AI.
Go for it and try to make a full one. Showcase the bots so we can help you improve them. Having a team is much more rewarding than having 1 bot.
PUT THIS IN YOUR SIG IF YOU WOULD HUG G.K OR S_M IF YOU MET THEM IN REAL LIFE
LW, MW, HW and whatever you want for the last teams.
Check the NAR AI mod thread (not the releases one) for how can you participate.
I am not sure that stacking 3 pistons is realistic, and don't think 3 pistons really make for a good MW poker.
I am not complaining about the chassis :P
It's not bad and good enough for NAR AI but really should be faster.
NPCFs are the best motors in the game, but you can use normals as well for this.
How good is the wedge? Is it invertible?
Nary, why are you putting the NPC's in the chassis all of a sudden?

It has been like that for awhile.
does spamming skirt hinges really work well as armor ?
Belly armor on the HW?
As far as my testing goes, those skirt hinges only make a marginal difference. How do you angle them, maybe its different then mine?
And cheating... well yes, and not really realistic, but i don't care :P
Well that was a ripoff Starcore's one...
just wanted to make the first AW chicken drill of all NAR AI.

Absolutely random build i designed this morning !
398.9 kg, 3 ants, Ti 1mm
[Edit] I have an idea! You could try putting the drive onto a free axle, so it can run when it's flipped around. AGOD might hurt that one, though.Alittle?!?
how do the hammers hit anything if the wheels get in the way?I'm guessing the opponents have to miss the wheels.

Does it have controlled movement? Cuz that will be pretty awesome.
If only you could make that hammer fire both ways. :(
Hammer that is flipper when inverted anyone?

Ah, an inertia powered true popup.
Interesting design but i bet it deals LOW damage. Will try to build one.
Why don't I get kommentz ? :(
that will be fixed with Frenzy.py
I would love to put it in NAR AI but it needs an overcomplicated .py. :P

Nope, i'm just using the collision mesh to avoid inverting when it fires.
Nope, i'm just using the collision mesh to avoid inverting when it fires. The BSG's torque reaction is powerful enough to act as an anti-srimech and send the bot on it's back when it fires !
It self-rights much better than the v4 though, also is flatter to make it better against SnS.
But i spent 2 hours trying to fix the AGOD problem, i really need to find something to fix it since i has no pause button :mad:
MOAR razors less armor.
Lol @ the outrageously overpowered dragon breath motor.
How do you get your chassis so thin in the first place?By raising the bar as high as possible, then clickin on the lowest possible pixel on it

For some reason all of your bots seem to have a common shape. Which bot started it anyways? Razorback v3?

If someone did just that, and claim it was done legit, how do you prove him guilty?I think BFE is fine as long as it is indistinguishable from a legitimately build bot. After all, innocent until proven guilty. And unless the person admits to it, you can't tell.
One issue though: In stock, you can legitimately stack 4 blacks into one using just your skill in stacking. However, it takes so long to do that no one ever bothers. But with BFE it is quite easy. Is that still a legitimate use?
Again I was not arguing based on moral ground, but that it is unenforceable.
For example, I do not think that Naryar or anyone else for that matter is actually able to construct the bot he just showcased.
I am completely against you using your NAR AI to ram your vision for what DSL should be up our asses rather than building on what DSL really is
I do not think that Naryar or anyone else for that matter is actually able to construct the bot he just showcased. Therefore, the bot is illegal.It's fairly easy actually. Just put 2 to 3 storm piston to it every time you put down a skirt hinge. It will fly away allowing you to stack a second one of top by flashing to control/build. Once you lay out your skirt hinges, hit the pause button, go to test bot, come back to build, and delete the storm piston. Putting on the razor is the ez part since u can rotate the hinge.
change something to connect to the chassis rather than an extender.
They usually go undetected in game play, even when it's made obvious. Just look at when backlash first came out, when all VS components are indestructible. People just don't suspect these kind of things.change something to connect to the chassis rather than an extender.
That is cheating !
What about : if someone gets caught entering in a tournament with an illegal robot made with BFE (but in that case making a legal robot with BFE is not an offense), we can perfectly ban him from other tourneys forever.
I thought that bot was a gift to DK. XD
Memento Mori DSL - 5mm Ti, 4 NPCF's, 8 ants, and 46 razors.
Wammers aren't particularly good against other wedge or SnS. It's advantage is against VS.

Shape advantage and counter is the way to go.Wammers aren't particularly good against other wedge or SnS. It's advantage is against VS.
Care to explain ? I do believe and claim boldly that wammers can be good against anything if well-built enough.
If the chassis is cubed, you could have entered it inCC2. Good job.

That IN STOCK was mainly built to attack the weapons and tops of popups and gut rippers.
When i saw myself losing to Ogre in Yoda's tournament, i saw "heh, nice design, i should ripoff that sometime" and here we go:As in a flipper with razor tips on a beta burst? I've built one of those before:
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/57354screenshot_473.bmp)But it sucked at dealing damage and was more suited to being a flipper.
Yoda should get Ogre to join the forum :D
I'll let him know you were inspired by him. Looks cool too. Although If i were to be a stickler for detail, his was more of a flipper/rammer hybrid. the razors were static.
I'd recommend downgrading the extenders on your axe and opting for more razors or changing for some other weapon. Since hardly anything usually hits the arm that the weapons are attached to, polys or (if you're willing to take a risk) carbons are all you truly need.

Well, you can talk yourself up when you REALLY do know what you're doing/what you're talking about, but apart from that...
Plus, he is insane. Why would the community bother itself with the ramblings of a madman ?
Hello, COTT.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/33200nidhogg.png)
10mm Ti, 12 ants, 72 razors :gawe:
Now to see if I build another one... yeah... a Norse Dragons team sounds cool.
Even if I should have used one of the actual greek mythology titanic name :P
A wedged SnS :trollface ?^LOL^
You mean like a juggler with a weapon rack where the snowplow would normally be?My COTT entry (fatal tragedy) has that now :bigsmile:
And where the "chassis" wedge would be.It'd have to be angled in the opposite direction to its normal angle, though, if you wanted them to get up onto the top and still have the wammer part causing some damage.
You know I will scream "make the JX external and lower the chassis height".
Nary. Can I take on MKB after you????
But such badass exposed chassis might lead to you losing 1 round....... And then you know what happens after that.
Aaah, nice plan, except if you focused on MKB's posts a bit more you would be able to tell that he has plans.
Assuming I'm judging this right, you could be in for somewhat of a surprise (although, unbeknownst to you your razorz spam may actually save you here).
Anyway, your bot does look quite cool, but such a silly use of large JX bursts is very dissapoint.

What chance do you have against me in the Combat Arena, flipper junkie ?
*PMs MKB to build a DSL version of ITI*
Look at the thread and the posts regarding it, you may be able to pickup on the strategy MKB has planned...
Close, but no cigar, although, if that last part is true, I may need to "guide" him to build something else.Look at the thread and the posts regarding it, you may be able to pickup on the strategy MKB has planned...
Is he cloning one of GK's bots ? Problem is that i don't know what bot it should be, and every time MKB copied a bot it failed.
Now, is shuting up MKB more important to me than mildly humiliating you? :ermm:

I remember him saying he was going to clone Nar's previous entry, I dunno.Bingo.
It's exposed when you face 123. :POr SM...
First I wanted to get a wammer in CC4, but then i remembered some discussion with scorpion.

1mm plastic. Yeah it's yours joey, as soon as I AI and test it.

It looks awesome.

No, no it doesn't.
No offense, but that looks like it would suck. only 6 maces? Kinda defies the whole point of having hammers. I'd personally just change it permanently to a wammer, name it brick wall simulator and have it done with.

Naryar made a super-tough AI Pack called NAR AI, where if you can build a good wedge, you can beat just about every bot in it
Nary tends to use NAR AI because of his insanely huge ego.Naryar uses DSL because it's the best DSL AI pack right now, not because of his ego. What would you suggest he use to test his bots? BBEANS AI? He could use 123AI, but if I made a huge AI pack, I would use mine.
Naryar made a super-tough AI Pack called NAR AI, where if you can build a good wedge, you can beat just about every bot in itYou are also stupid. Nar AI has nearly every design you can think of in it and it's not just a wedge war. Show me your bots with good wedges that can beat Swartzchild Radius, Pyrotechnic Display, RPP or anything that 123 has in that pack. Not to mention all the other bots specially designed to kill wedges.
I was actually referencing to something fairly obvious (as a joke, more than anything). It wasn't an entirely serious post anyway.Nary tends to use NAR AI because of his insanely huge ego.
What do you exactly mean by insanely huge ego ? "Cares only about himself" or "considers himself the best person in the world ?" I prefer to keep a realistic assessment of my strengths and weaknesses.Naryar made a super-tough AI Pack called NAR AI, where if you can build a good wedge, you can beat just about every bot in it
It really has to be an awfully good wedge if you want to beat anti-wedge designs...
Hammers suck in tournaments.Never did MC2 any harm ;)
bring the disk closer together so you don't need such big (and slow) wheels. The turn around time is crucial for this design.
And they called my bots cheap... :P
The original Dragon Whelp was fine though.And it was also crap :P
:bigO: You have to use a chayssis that's not air-tight. :OAnd they called my bots cheap... :P
Hahahaha but I am a Spike as well. What do you expect for me, crap that can't deal any damage ? Must a bot be a poor battler to be called IRL ?The original Dragon Whelp was fine though.And it was also crap :P
But you're the host after all. I will rebuild it with a larger chassis, drive inside and all weapons attached to the chassis.

SPARKS FOR THE SPARK GOD !
If we had a CLEAR definition of "IRL building" it would be SO MUCH EASIER to say what is IRL... for me IRL is "realistic, and could work in real life".Or basically, kick the other robot's teeth in :rolleyes:
Oh and I am entering BoF for fun, yes, but my definition of "fun" in robotic combat is... *inhales deeply*
Crush the chassis of your enemies while laughing maniacally ! Rejoice at other people posting awed comments at how Bad Ass your bots are ! Climb on top of a pile of defeated opponents and rise your weapons towards the sky to look awesome ! Inspire sheer unbridled TERROR in your enemies by beating their bots senseless ! Make special taunting py's so your bot shouts one liners in combat ! This is robotic combat, damnit, and it's essense is FAST PACED, BRUTAL CONFLICT, as well as survival of the fittest ! Components flying everywhere ! SPARKS FOR THE SPARK GOD !

I saw what you mean, and therefore fixed the bot.My rammer should hopefully stand up to that.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/39723dragonwhelp3.png)
5mm Steel, NPC fasts.
For me this is realistic. Just a hole to be cut in the middle of the chassis, since the flamethrower's real exhaust is at the top of physical exhaust.
My rammer should hopefully stand up to that.
Note "hopefully".My rammer should hopefully stand up to that.
pics or it won't happen
You see Naryar, don't you just feel so much happier and more fulfilled now that it is truly IRL realistic? :P
Very good. =D
Not bad. Are they mounted there to give it a wider area of shreddage? Or do the collision meshes get in the way if you mount them on the inside AP of the discs?
I know Eteks have good HP but I still don't like the placement.
So this is what i'm going to use against ben purse. I figure he has no chance unless he builds a relatively decent popup like he did before against Foxpet. That I helped him to do (yes it was to troll Foxpet). Oh well.Or a FSS, a Flail SnS, a decent VS, a de-weapon ram... Oh wait it's Ben Purse NM.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/16485symbolofdread.png)
Symbol of Dread - 1mm Ti, 7 ants, NPC fasts, and the rest you can see.
bringiton.pngVery good. =D
And you're next ! I know what I'm going to build as first bot for our challenge but the second one I still have doubts.
so here's my SheetMetal modded entry. It's called Mangonel, has 6 ants and 3mm plastic.Sheet Metal rules state you can't change bot type if you update.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/89058mangonnel.png)
At first it was a firestorm-like flipper but it sucked, and now it is a bit better but still bad. I have the feeling it just sucks because it's an inferior bot type :trollface
Will probably change bot type.
Looks cool, but you could've been working on the Aerodactyl update I'm still waiting for. :P
OK, i'll change it to a metal hinge wedge :trollfaceTrolling = succeeded
Reminds me of that one bot on the Razor Team. I forgot its name.^generic advice^
Hello there,hazcon 3third MW juggler ever
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/45264perilous mechanism.png)
Sooo it's 3mm plastic, 6 ants, the rest you can see. Untested yet. I am wondering if I should enter that or a wammer into GRW's tourney.
Oh hey mini CA5. Seriously, I have one just like that XD
Can't really think of how to improve it, except possibly changing the titanium to Al, and lengthening the wedges. But that all depends on the wedges at the moment.
One thing - this is IRL?
Metal hinges wedges and IRL mixes as well as gold and water xD
nar ai 3.0
nar ai 3.0Yes.
Yeah it's a bit exposed. Not much though, and i don't care. It's supposed to be a fast glass cannon, all or nothing bot.
Anyways, new bots !
First my Battlebots 5 HW prototype. Don't call it IRL, it's just supposed to be built for the rule of cool and for originality.

MIGHTY NARYAR'S IRON FIST (yes the name is serious) 2WD NPC + 2WD NPC Fast, 5mm Ti, 8 ants. You see everything in the pic.
Probably should make it just a flamethrower rammer and keep the spin motor hammer setup for something else, like the SHW, since I realize it will be critically missing in weapons.
Oh dear no, I am now highly worried about my bots chances in RIW D:I joined up and put in an IRL bot for teh lulz =D
Hate the name.Ah, it'll probably be reduced to "ANGRY NARYAR'S CRYING EYES" if it faces a gut-ripper ;)
Sneaky... Having beater bars on the end just for weapons isn't IRL but you put on weapons with nearly no contact area so it looks cool but you get extra weapons on there. Sneaky...
Freeziez did not explicitely said we should build IRL for BB5, right ? He said bots should be very realistic and should look like real life designs.

The IRL building style deliberately ignores efficiency to make a bot look like a real life one, spams fail weapons everywhere (but not too much !!1!!!1one!) and generally makes awful fighters.

That's news to me. Skidmark (https://gametechmods.com/TournamentFiles/botm/nov11/002.png) is a good example of a IRL realistic but still effective robot.
It doesn't help that most of the top builders have stopped posting in showcases (123, Ounce, Pwn, etc).

That's because it's a drum. And two DSL components has been specifically designed for drums to be both entirely realistic and damaging.
I will agree, not all IRL realistic bots are unefficient. Just anything that isn't a spinner.
The problem with IRL is that it has invaded the showcases, and I bet plenty of people build IRL because they have not the skill to build otherwise. It's not the case of the best IRL builders ala Virus Bomb or Scrap, obviously, but still.
Some people are forgetting what efficiency means, and are starting to think think a bot is good only on looks and on closeness to real life building. It doesn't help that most of the top builders have stopped posting in showcases (123, Ounce, Pwn, etc).
Maybe 123 is right. Maybe DSL realistic has reached a maxima in building and no progress is being made since a good half-year.
'Tis not a reason to abandon things. I am back into building now, and I can assure you I'm gonna change things.
Also, I am the creator of DSL realistic !

I do agree that Beater Bars are overpowered in this scenario.
Sorry, that was my internet sarcasm fail. I'm simply stating the relatively OP nature of beater bars.

Agreed. Even though I lean more toward the IRL style of building (mainly because I enjoy it), I do miss seeing those showcases active. I believe that a lot of trends in bot building are driven by inspiration... and the IRL style is ruling at the moment. DSL realistic ruled for a long time though, I don't think it is entirely forgotten, but I think that people got tired of it for now.

Realistic was meant to be like IRL, but thanks to 123, Ounce and Nary, it became (In the words of R0B0) "A glorified no-stacking rule."
IRL is merely DSL builders realizing that they were approaching Starcore AI levels of unrealism fast, and rectifying it.
There is indeed nothing realistic about DSL "realistic". You may as well start stacking those ant batteries and be done with it.
Hey, at least I've acknowledged that my building helped advance the trend towards unrealism just as much as anyone else. Just because I'm part of the problem doesn't also mean I can't help provide solutions too.
Maybe I should post a new bot...Not yet.
Maybe I should post a new bot...
new NAR AIyesssssssssssssssssss
Where do you see a problem ? Exactly as it did for stock between 2003 and a few years ago (where stock stopped evolving a lot), natural building evolution towards more refined, efficient designs in DSL is a given.
Where do you see a problem ? Exactly as it did for stock between 2003 and a few years ago (where stock stopped evolving a lot), natural building evolution towards more refined, efficient designs in DSL is a given.
The problem is that DSL strived for increased realism upon conception and release. Eventually it became about efficiency at all costs, virtually abandoning the concept of realism all together.

MIGHTY NARYAR'S FIERY WRATH. 5mm Steel, 10 ants, 6 large CO2's and you can see the rest.
Was mostly built for the rule of cool, as you can see, and for originality against better wedges. While i probably will be outwedged by damn near everyone with a wedge, i don't fear it. Now it needs a cool skin.
Why is my showcase in the secon page, and not SHINING as a paragon of what is RIGHT in bot building at first page ? Lemme fix that.Uhh, try making the chassis smaller, or making it small enough to fit the batteries and add 2 multi extenders. then put your weps on there.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/69382grimsaga.png)
Sooo 6 ants, 5mm plastic, NPC fasts, no need for insides really. Felt like slightly ripping off somebody.
He needs the chassis big enough for the NPC's to fit in.put them on a multi extender.

Decent, although I can see potential issues due to the lack of tourque of the pinks with that heavy a weapon system, kinda nullifying the knockback, although I could be wrong.
Yeah, but with stock people often used HP-Z-teks, which were as strong as the drive in most cases; that gave it a lot of extra push, while a Pink, with the weapon weight used, doesn't have much torque or speed, at least from my experience.Decent, although I can see potential issues due to the lack of tourque of the pinks with that heavy a weapon system, kinda nullifying the knockback, although I could be wrong.
Think of it as a regular SnS that exerts an extra push during contact. That's what made these things so deadly in Stock in the first place.
With this design, the piglets almost add to the speed of the bot in the weapon, so it hits as hard as the npc's and piglets combined.Yeah, but with stock people often used HP-Z-teks, which were as strong as the drive in most cases; that gave it a lot of extra push, while a Pink, with the weapon weight used, doesn't have much torque or speed, at least from my experience.Decent, although I can see potential issues due to the lack of tourque of the pinks with that heavy a weapon system, kinda nullifying the knockback, although I could be wrong.

Then it'll be a blatant clone of the CC4 SnSnS, or a clone of 123's full-rotation flail spinner. And I don't like axles, and axles have roughly 1/6th of piglet hitpoints.And that's the problem. Said the hit points were too low in mah edit.
Also a free axle will produce EVEN less knockback than a piglet, and will make this bot even more of a trinity SnS.
Hypnos or tornados?
Honestly not liking this; defeats the point of IRL on many levels; it's also unrealistic in that sense due to a skirt passing through a DSL bar.
Dude seriously put some effort into making it look realistic. Big chassis + slightly less than normal weapons does not equal realistic. Loose the big skirts and try to blend the design better, work on the "flow" of the components. Not just the "it's more effective here..."
To be honest, I personally doubt the realism of Ring Spinners myself. However, you're coming up with an excuse for a design that is possible to get IRL in DSL (seriously, if the camera is right you can just move the skirts closer to vertical; if not, then you could remove the DSL bars), unlike Ring Spinners. It's just not even a problem that should be there, considering you could find other extender setups just to attach the skirts; they may be crude, but "Hell IRL the sheets would be welded to the chassis frame", right?Honestly not liking this; defeats the point of IRL on many levels; it's also unrealistic in that sense due to a skirt passing through a DSL bar.
Where did I say I was an IRL builder ?
Also, if this tiny thing makes it unrealistic, then why are ring spinners allowed when they are so BLATANTLY unrealistic in DSL ? I know the counter-argument to this, and I sure as heck can use the exact same argument to defend the realism of my bot.
You could perfectly cut out the skirt hinge at the middle twice and since it's inside the chassis it is not like it's gonna fall. Hell IRL the sheets would be welded to the chassis frame and no need for skirt hinge, so technically the skirt hinge shouldn't even exist. But I can't BFE these two 40mm Ti's to the chassis, right ?
Uuh lazy ? Not really cause I had to snapper load the thing. And it's the best use of weight I can do with this setup.I'm sorry, but you have made a bad general design with a bunch of stupid features that do not belong in the building style. Scrap it and go find actual decent IRL bots (Scrap's showcase, obviously). Either that or take SKBT's advice because TBH he is much better at IRL than you, and still makes decent performing bots.
Put the skirt hinge higher ? Not possible, messes with other collision meshes. I meant the angle
Change the DSL bars to shell panels, and attach the motor armor to the top of the shell panels ? Sheck panels doesn't fit, and it would make the bot more fragile overall. Or how about you screw the exterior armour and just give it better chassis armour? Hate to say it but IRL isn't about "whoamygosh effeciency", more on aesthetics. Your bot is an unsatisfying and ugly compromise between two building styles and TBH it sucks.
Use 2 multi's to attach the motor protections ? More weight wasted, and difficult to orient. Hardly an issue with the skirt wedges which can be downgraded to less ugly Tit 80cm sheets
Attach the motor protections via multiextenders to the baseplates ? Nope. Provide a reason rather than establishing yourself a state of pointless denial
Only thing I see that is possibly better than this is using plastic 20cm's and ME's to attach the 4 pieces of armor, actually saving 3kgs but I don't see it helping. Plus it might make it more fragile, and I doubt it gives me the flexibility to put the armor sheets in the right position.
Though I might try that last one.

Change the DSL bars to shell panels, and attach the motor armor to the top of the shell panels ? Sheck panels doesn't fit, and it would make the bot more fragile overall. Or how about you screw the exterior armour and just give it better chassis armour? Hate to say it but IRL isn't about "whoamygosh effeciency", more on aesthetics. Your bot is an unsatisfying and ugly compromise between two building styles and TBH it sucks. Yeah nice way to insult my bot and not give any developed reason why.
Use 2 multi's to attach the motor protections ? More weight wasted, and difficult to orient. Hardly an issue with the skirt wedges which can be downgraded to less ugly Tit 80cm sheets I use angled 80cm's for a reason. Most notably, less wedgelock, more keeping the enemy bot on the wedge.
Attach the motor protections via multiextenders to the baseplates ? Nope. Provide a reason rather than establishing yourself a state of pointless denial Isn't it obvious that with only multi-extenders I cannot position the sheets in a good way without using even more kg's, due to their attachment points ?
Or just build standard DSL because you're actually good at it.
Honestly not liking this; defeats the point of IRL on many levels; it's also unrealistic in that sense due to a skirt passing through a DSL bar.
Where did I say I was an IRL builder ?
Also, if this tiny thing makes it unrealistic, then why are ring spinners allowed when they are so BLATANTLY unrealistic in DSL ? I know the counter-argument to this, and I sure as heck can use the exact same argument to defend the realism of my bot.
Don't wanna swap the positions of the drive and batteries?
hows the wedge and how easily does that oota bots
One problem I can see with the Tite sheet on the skirt hinge, is that it has a tendency to flex backwards on a big impact, and allow the opponent to strike the vulnerable chassis, which happened a few times with Implosion II. If you were to make the chassis vertical at the front, extend the front wedge with the weight saved (provided that doesn't mess up the wedginess), and mount the skirt hinge at the top rather than the bottom, I reckon that would solve that problem, and give opponents less to aim for should they get around to the sides.
dammit I thought you posted a new BOF2 prototype for me to critique D:
MIGHTY NARYAR'S EVIL EJECTOR, I wonder?
Much better. Still, the DSL bar doesn't really fit aesthically. Can you use flipper pieces or anything else?
Wait... perm 80 M's are 47kg in DSL 2.1 right ?You and your component balancing, Naryar. Will you ever learn? =D
Wait... perm 80 M's are 47kg in DSL 2.1 right ?You and your component balancing, Naryar. Will you ever learn? =D
I don't care about 1.9 KG extra anyway. If I denied your bot then I wouldn't have a 32 bot bracket.
the hilarious thing is it still says its a MW :P
I don't care about 1.9 KG extra anyway. If I denied your bot then I wouldn't have a 32 bot bracket.Well, if the rules say it should be under 399.0kg, then it should be under 399.0kg. If you got rid of Naryar's bot instead of wafflez's, then you'd still have a 32-bot bracket once GF93 gets his entry in. Rules should be rules for everyone, not just for the majority, with a select few who are allowed to circumvent it for whatever reason.
and yeah, bizarre chassis is bizarre.I can take it nobody can tell that it's supposed to be a dragon's head so it's shaped like one.
and yeah, bizarre chassis is bizarre. I accepted it because it was better than his last entry and he tried to make it IRL this time :P
What you IRL builders don't understand is that I don't build IRL.so you'd be willing to build a robot that would cost upwards of hundreds to thosands of french monies even though you have no past experience with robotics ? cool story bro.
Sure I could put myself to it seriously, and I could trash any of you medium-level IRL builders (and yes, I am willing to back up these words) and be one of the best IRL builders. But I don't, cause I have spend my whole time here trying to make bots better and now some one year old style is going just against that.
This was built for the rule of cool, and as Badnik wanted the bots in his tournament to be entirely realistic, I made it entirely realistic.and yeah, bizarre chassis is bizarre. I accepted it because it was better than his last entry and he tried to make it IRL this time :P
Is it me or does it just sounds like you took my bot out of pity ?

Naryar, IRL is your child. If it wasn't for you bringing starcore into DSL and then encouraging people like 123 stw, pwnator, urjak and the ounce to abuse the heck out of the standardized realistic rule with constant loopholes like your "narmour" then IRL probably wouldn't exist. IRL is a community patch made to fix the flaws in the realistic rule you abused, thus you made it.more like "made it popular"
Hmm... I seem to be deriving no pleasure from the current confrontation. It is weird.The fact is that you're competent enough to take notice of standards set by people like Scrap, VB and Thyrus for this area of building, you just.. haven't.
Also, I must think more about what happened there just before I went to sleep. I may have acted illogically here.
I wonder if it would make more sense let this be my last IRL-like bot, and stopping to try and build something close to IRL so it can be accepted as IRL, since I am by all means a DSL "realistic" builder, who does occasional dips in original and candy building ? Though I also have the feeling it's just running away from a battle, and therefore a chance at a constructive experience.
looks good as usual, how much bottom protection?
Finally. Something you don't suck at. :P
This is good. My FSS will be able to go up your wedge, bounce off of the disk and tooth armor, and strike at the thin slice of bot exposed above the wedge.
Bravo Naryar! You get the FSS Seal of Approval! :P
And now for some year-old Agony rebuild that didn't made it into the new version cuz i forgot it.Ew ugly.

Battlethirst, 5mm Ti, 8 ants, and everything else you can see. There's a halfsheet and a few sheets on it.
Yeah, still not at my greatest potential. Might have to do something with me having drank two beers before building it. And I have no ideas about how to make it better.
I'm sending it to Conraa ASAP.
nah, you can only put one stuff/beater bar, so yeah...[IMG]https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/8723battlethirst.png

5mm titanium seems a bit overkill to me. I think 3mm titanium would be sufficient.
One razor tip per beater bar...? I never thought I would have to say this, especially to Naryar, but it needs MOAR RAZORS!
The weapon motors will probably spin pretty slowly with the extra weight of the added razors, so upgrading the weapon motors wouldn't be out of the question.
I see you explained why you used the Cobra wheels, but their would be better wheels, in my opinion, but whatever.
The weapons on the sides, I can't remember the name, but they could be changed to some other part.
IRL building doesn't mean to use the worst parts in the game in place of the best parts, but it does bring more of the 'unusable' parts into play. You can still use all the best parts, but only in a realistic way. You can spam razors everywhere as long as they don't interfere with other parts that they shouldn't. I believe the "weld rule" would apply to a razor touching other razors.
Also, IRL building is based mostly on aesthetics, but in all honesty, that bot doesn't even look cool.
Err HA that's not meant to be an IRL bot...
Err HA that's not meant to be an IRL bot...
Naryar is going to freak when he sees that one of his serious bots was mistaken for a crappy IRL bot...
YOU DARE MISTAKE THE MIGHTY NARYAR'S BUILDING AS IRL, CALL THE GLORIOUS NARYAR'S BOTS A PILE OF sh**, AND CHANGE THE LEGENDARY NARYAR'S SHOWCASE NAME TO ONE REMINISCENT OF MANURE ?idk why but i laughed harder than i shouldve at this
looks like a normal face spinner to me, I thought DSL designs were meant to be more unique :( you can do better nary!they're SUPPOSED TO..... but dsl is slowly becoming stock 2.0 (not that its entirely impossible to build original, just rare unless you're in a top bulider's showcase)
nar ai ui
Don't enter this into RIP3, that exposed drive will be eaten fast.
It would be better if you got it so more weapons hit at once because it may not do all that much damage with only 2 razors making contact.
yay more gut ripper food
and have the beater bars on the inside ap
and have the beater bars on the inside ap
And then attach the razors perpendicularly to the beater bars ? I see what you mean. I'll try and look how to improve that weapon setup.
You've got exposed extenders, exposed wheels, and exposed motors. Chances are that one is going to go pretty early, probably the wheels.Don't enter this into RIP3, that exposed drive will be eaten fast.
Even with 11000 HP motors ?
Nice post man. Quit being arrogant because it's legitimate advice.It would be better if you got it so more weapons hit at once because it may not do all that much damage with only 2 razors making contact.
Wait, I totally couldn't come to that conclusion myself !!!
This, pretty much. It would give a similar area of weapons but with a better orientation.and have the beater bars on the inside ap
And then attach the razors perpendicularly to the beater bars ? I see what you mean. I'll try and look how to improve that weapon setup.
I thought just swap the Beater & Razor with the lone Razor on each hexplate. It'll give a flatter area of attack, instead of the two razors you're getting now, and you could intersect the razors if you need to with the proper rotation.
Arrogance ? Fool ! I am DEFINED by arrogance !If you realised it already why did you leave a glaring issue in your bot? That's like saying " I know how to make my bot better but I like my bot sucking how it is, screw you're advice", freeziez style.
The problem here is that you are giving basic, newbie-level advice to someone that knows it since years. Do you think I don't realize my weapon setup could be better executed ?
Besides, the right to be a bit arrogant is earned, or at least tolerated, as you climb up the building ladder. Look at myself, Ounce or Inf.

Remember that rammer from 3 pages ago ? Well I improved the setup.you could replace those Hypno teeth with something lighter.

Armor improved from 5mm Titanium to 5mm Steel, quite a bit less weight used on extender work, and it looks cooler and cleaner.
it might be a little bit underweaponed...... maybe just a tad bit
Is this meant to be IRL? Cause if it's meant to be, it isn't.
Like the concept though.
This might be asking a bit early, since it's just a prototype, but will it have a chance of being in NAR AI?
Well I guess it could possibly be built IRL, but it'd be really difficult and no one IRL would do that just for a novelty bot.Then why do Snake and Mechadon exist ?
well i geuss soit might be a little bit underweaponed...... maybe just a tad bit
Of course it is, it's a prototype. Was it not clear enough that it is a prototype ? Should have stated this more clearly.
Besides, this bot is a science bot, not an efficient build.
Unrealistic, sort out your control board.

OMG 3 MM ALU LOLOL that's soooo not Naryar......I don‘t think it“s even worth it, and the chassis is airtight already.
I think you can shrink that chassis and use that 1kg to upgrade to a small control board.....
the main problem I have with it is how close the bottom is to the half sheet edge, which means it can be damaged much easier from the back. You give it a bit of space and spinner type weapons like gut rippers would have a much harder time touching it. Popups will still go through due to how burst motor detaches.although, if you center the half sheet, i'm afraid that the stabilizer will be too short for the bot, i'll just using move pixel give it 3-5 pixels of space.
I think you can just use the center ap of the disc so that you don‘t need those huge ass skirts, and to attach both the disc and the 2perm with 2 me‘s, like this:
1st me > 2nd me angled down to attach the disc > 2perm.
or..... you can use indestructible half sheets..........
Lol what popup would do something like that? Also half sheet spacing does have something to do with it...... You can "catch the razors" so to say. By hitting the half sheet on the edge instead of the surface, you can buffer the hit... It doesn't work on a popup that hits from multiple angles though. Also Urjak has a fairly irregular half sheet setup on his shell spinner which seems to help.or..... you can use indestructible half sheets..........
Even when a popup goes through and 2HKO's me ?
my first CWEh, you can try angling the jugglers so that it's flush with the tite skirts, which will help deliver the opponents to the VS better.

Looks good for what it's aiming for but otherwise it seems pretty pointless.
It's a dedicated anti-shell spinner
How about downgrading the srimech to poly (and probably remove the outermost angled panels) and adding teeth onto the beaters?
Just saying that some versatility would be better than a bot that can take out a single bot type.Looks good for what it's aiming for but otherwise it seems pretty pointless.
HENCE WHY I SAIDIt's a dedicated anti-shell spinner

i don't see how invincible armor is realistic at all unless you're using brimstone as your armor and secondly most people have the narmor begone thing that joeblo posted a while back so it's basically just a "eh" dsl version of spiTe.

Well that's certainly stretching the realistic rule a bit.

so there you go
Jesus christ why are you testing my rules Naryar no one else has this problem
I'll just declare trinity fliers unrealistic and be done with it. A spinner with pistons on IRL would probably gyrodance but not fly straight up.
how about a trinity SNS? like one that doesnt helicopter into the air on commandJesus christ why are you testing my rules Naryar no one else has this problem

so there you go
The rules clearly say that you should be able to display controlled movement, and my bot sure does.In that case, good luck flying whilst being shoved. :D
The rules however do NOT say that you MUST display controlled movement at all times.It's clearly not though, it's AI will not let it move towards the opponent, therefore does not show controlled movement.there are hypno wheels there...Being able to move in a controlled manner, and actually doing it are two different things.But all I ask is that every bot must be able to show some form of controlled movement.
so there you go
The ai WILL move towards the opponent, and it will show controlled movement, even for 1/4 of the match.
Lol funny NAR say that since he banned ppl left and right for CMR violation in his own tourney.......
Paint it green and call it little mac?lel

switch to beta or something.
Does that burst wedge even works? If I were you I would make that as far forward as possible.
I Like it. Due to my interest in WWI and WWII aircraft I feel obliged to comment on that bot.
Why don't you try hoverpads? It would certainly make the flight more... comfortable. Unless you want the plane to land.
the mighty naryar? using drive motors for weapons?
:p
but really that looks fun as heck to drive, can we get a video of how chaotically it controls?

Or you can use clicks custom piston if you want constant force.Hmmm anyone want to take a crack at making a runway map? :P
Useless. We have the obstacle course arena for planes.
although maybe.... working plane + runaway arena + cannons = combat flight simulator, Ra2 edition
also the problem with pistons is that they are reciprocitating and don't exert constant force.I'm thinking of some special hovercraft to apply a constant force forward, like mounting hovercrafts on the back of the bot, and then two powerful, heavy spinners (1 horizontal, 1 vertical) to steer with the spinner's recoil torque.

you do know skirt hinges are basically as good if not better than metal hinges

Go home Naryar, you're drunk :gawe:
your self righter flipper thingy is stupid. it basically is making the bot easier to beat because its flipping other robots off the the vulnerable sides on yours.

Makes a change to see a proper rammer rather than a wall of weapons that slowly trundles towards you, yet is still called a "rammer".

I said it was coming, and here it is.

way too long to be good. maybe try with only one bsg per side because the weapons only need to flop down, not flip up like a popup.What about if it gets flipped over?
the other side gets em.It needs the damage badly. It only gets 1 or 2 shot before it gets killed.
i guess i explained wrong.
instead of the 4 bsgs use 2.

Yes, it's quite obviously the best bot ever. Named Roadrunner (meep), 1mm plastic, couldn't cram 6WD NPCF so i got 4WD NPCF + 4WD NPC.
now to the next
Because I wont except it :dumb). The SnS is cool though.
my monster truck suggestion still stands
If you want to have a fast IRL bot, Try 4wd NPC Fasts with technos.
THWARTOISE
ugh more semi-irl realism
TBH the only bot I've ever seen from you that is 100% IRL is Brass Bull.
it could definitely work IRL, just nowhere near as effective as it is right now. You will clearly outweapon everything else in the tourney by miles before they even scratch the chassis. The piston wouldn't work IRL because the only reason it works in RA2 is because of its "physics".
Eh, it can certainly work better, but it's not too IRL for the same reason that Popups aren't IRL; A setup like that would murder bots in RA2 physics, but it wouldn't be more effective than The Crusher or Punjar.ugh more semi-irl realism

I don't hate DSL3 beta.1) uhhh... yep. I think that was the point.
In fact it is much superior to DSL2 when building things for the rule of cool... the problem I have with DSL3 is that the DSL2 metagame has been changed in a bad way.
Less grip on wheels = > more weight used on motors and drive to get to the same speed => less interesting and fast designs.
also the fact that the best weapon is a 120kg DSL bar and that the rest is hilariously useless. This will be fixed, though.
Not to mention that DSL3 clearly favors IRL building, as if we didn't need less DSL standard building.
I'm not too sure if the wedge nerf is good or bad. Considering all wedges will be equally as bad, it doesn't destroy the metagame, BUT I am pretty sure wedgelock will be more common.
I should do a DSL3 wedge testing.
2) have fun trying to get under a brick with a brick
My ra2 insight and knowledge has little to do with this.2) have fun trying to get under a brick with a brick

Stop attempting to sound knowledgeable when strict IRL building has made you limited in your ra2 insight and knowledge.

no the chassis is not huge, actually there's not too much empty spaceCalls attaching drive motors to thin chassis sections unrealistic...
also trov glitch is unrealistic as all heck so nope
Needs a Chassis ramp Might be good but it's up to you.
and use judge bursts. No shut up.
use judge bursts.
So what do you think, mass ? Maybe it would indeed be better with a chassis wedge and 40cm steel panels, and flip itself less.use judge bursts.
Maybe you should just stop posting

i dont think it needs wedges really (or atleast you should have them stick out a bit less)
and try to replace the drum with a dsl bar, it doesnt look right to me. otherwise its quite nice

the wheels sticking out like this looks not so good
skirt wedges are ghey
Sweet. Use Flippermakers for the side wedges, they save weight

yeah that's my last battlebots 6 entry. 14 ants iirc, 4 large tanks and 2 smalls, 5mm steel, etc etc. pretty fast, fully invertible. will see if mass accepts it but technically signups aren't closed.
now to skin it, will post the skin once it's done... although all of my BB6 teams are skinned the same

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you will more than likely have to remove those Bob flamethrowers as MassimoV stated in his rules that those are not allowed. Otherwise I can see this one winning the SHW division.

(BTW Nar, In Nar AI 3 the description for Beta Bursts says they need 23 amps, you forget the extra 0)Oh, really? Thought it was a bit too low.
I bet you are using weapon motors for drive, like a n00b.
What was the complex flipper meant to do? From the pic it was designed to lift, then flip a bot? My old piston+flipper design was quite effective as the initial piston shove was enough to destabilise a bot for flipping, it might be worth trying with big pistons and the big version of the new flipper motors.

Flipper is kinda dumb/dull looking
i think it'd look better w/out the flipper and just a wedge w/ maybe spike strips like on the top
Or you could make the flipper look good. It lets the whole bot down atm imo.Which is what I tried to tell him, but...
"I am the mighty gorebeast, fear me and my pathetic flipper"
Well, what do you want me to do ? A sh**ty Robot Wars style flipper that is both fragile, 4 times as heavy and of doubtful wedginess when I am short on weight ?
Just ew, the first one looks like you stuck an electromagnet to it and ran it through a scrapyard and the 2nd looks like a gust of wind would get the better of it.

anyways here's the unfinished version
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/88819naryarsmightyFIST!.png)
so i was drunk, piston loaded the fists on the pistons, failed to put a plow on there, tried to BFE the plow by changing a sheet's id into a plow, realized I didn't installed Notepad++, tried to download it, but then I forgot completely the name of that (since I was drunk) and I just quit.
Not to mention that first I was building well and then i realized the chassis was too small for the design i wanted to do. I think it also crashed and I lost my bot file AFTER saving it (aka going to the botlab and back)
So yeah, I just quit because
I will finish it this evening.
thats basically a juggler imo.seconded
so i build something for craaig's tournament, while drunk

alright, so a concuspiciously borderline bot
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/7923itsirlright.png)
Named "its irl right???!1!" (no really). 3mm titanium, npc fasts, 8 ants or so
i first build it drunk it had just 2 bsg's and a fifth upper spike, as well as no static (well "static") wedge for supporting the bsg's backstrike. Then I improved it, decreased armor to 3mm ti, added a bsg, ant batteries, a static wedge.
I am currently building a Battlebots SHW. Maybe i'll finish and showcase it.

also will the 30-degree flippermakers be flush to the chassis if they were 30-to-60s?

i dont really see how these could be irl
Well, they're not made like DSL-S or they wouldn't be IRL :P
I think, if you're going to say IRL spinners are nearer DSL-S than any other bot types, then maybe it's because spinners are the most IRL looking DSL-S type? Aside from skeleton VS and floating perm axles, of course.
it's all way too flimsy. the shw's flippers would never lift anything irl as they would just bend. the hw looks horrible and the way you set out the weapons isn't great either.
also, irl spinners are nothing like you're saying. a good hs vs can get away with what, 30kg of weapons?
also irl rammers are only nerfed because a ton of spikes doesn't make it any good irl, but it does in dsl.
I am building what I see as IRL to make my bots look cool and original and so that they have a chance against some other bots (while keeping them vulnerable to some other bots) but yet "NOT IRL ENOUGH!!!1!1one!" and yet when people enter a DSL-S drum into IRL, people don't care anymore.
i have other ideas to rebuild them though, maybe they will look cooler as well.
if you can show me a good irl hs/vs with sledgehammers, sure. i wouldn't call any spinner with more than 3 hammers irl eitheralso, irl spinners are nothing like you're saying. a good hs vs can get away with what, 30kg of weapons?say that to every HS/VS with sledgehammers

It's normally down to the host- and people do care, look at Kurt's tourney.
(http://i.gyazo.com/f1883955f77ed913528f4ffa14010320.png)
Huge ton of weapons there though. The motor/disc falls off stupidly quickly anyways. Cool and IRL is easily done.

the only difference between an IRL spinner and a DSL-S spinner is like a few dozen kg's of extra extenders to make it look like in real life. And you know it, hell, you're the VS specialist around there.This is what I'm saying, DSL-S spinners are the closest bot type in DSL-S to looking like they could and WOULD be built in real life (Nobody would cover the front of a real bot in tiny blunt force weapons like a DSL-S rammer, for instance - this is my issue with one of the bots in Powers of Three)
IRL Drums are basically DSL-S, with a few kgs of difference. IRL and DSL flippers are close. IRL and DSL spinners are also close. IRL and DSL hammers are generally close (though no one cares because hammers suck).
IRL rammers and pokers however ? They couldn't be different from DSL rammers if they wanted to. And they are extremely nerfed compared to what they are in DSL-S.
tl;dr IRL rammers/pokers are nerfed horribly compared to DSL-S while spinners have a very slight efficiency nerf, and IRL is as unbalanced as DSL-S if not even more.
you may want to counter the argument with "but irl isn't about combat efficiency". Then why do you enter IRL bots in tournaments, in what is PRIMARILY a showdown of combat efficiency (and secondary looks) ? herpderpherp
the hw will probably be loloota'd by some flipper-No, it won't. Not in the battlebox.
WTF ? A SHW drum or HS or VS has at least 1,5 times that amount of weapons and yet no one complains about that.I'm not going to argue that drums/spinners are balanced compared to rammers, but almost NO builder would put 10+ ramming spikes on a practical robot. It has to at least look like it could be done in real life. Drums and HS get away with weapon spam because their weapon setup looks like it could be done in real life. If you want to apply this logic to a rammer, Take something like this:
does the flamer poke out between the blocks of beaters?
I like the idea of the block of beaters, but the poker part kinda kills the look of it IMO.
legitimate question for nary:
have you ever even looked at pictures of real robots?
alright, imma building drunken IRL this evening. REALLY IRL this time, seriously !God save us all
I already have some ideas (weaponed flipper, flipper/wammer and some flamethrower clamp). Feel free to give me some other ideas.

Spinner.
build a weaponless wedge
no spikes, no flamethrowers
go go go
it'd be the most irl bot you've ever built :V
it'd be the most irl bot you've ever built :VNary could mess up a chassis wedge.
the weapon is supposed to stick out of the bottom right?it'd be the most irl bot you've ever built :VNary could mess up a chassis wedge.
No. To use it I would have to turn the bot, not only would I be vulnerable to attack when turning the bot but also my rear is completely unarmored.yes thats why you should put a drum on it
Not to mention i don't have the weight left to do a proper drum weapon for a HW.
it woudnt but it would use some weight and have effect i dont see why it wouldnt help the bot

What the actual firetruck is that even meant to be?
What a mess.
naryar, go home. you're drunk.
mine looks waaaay better :p
Naryar my dog saw that bot and she had a stroke
youll regret this naryar
Youll rue this day
yesterday was alcohol induced building bingeLooks pretty good. It's one of your better IRL designs actually.
>after 3 beers
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/80078rejoiceinblood.png)
it's also irl!!1
3mmplastic, NPC fasts, quite a bit of ants and 2 battlepacks, rest you can see. also the rare cruiserweight from me. but it was more like I was lazy to rebuild the chassis to fit it to HW size :dumb)
also didn't put any slot for the VS. no matter.
more to be posted later, also more2edgy4umetal band names
Holy crap that is pretty cool honestly. Maybe someday I should build an UHW.(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/22489worlddevastator2.png)

i think it's either an octuple or septuple hybrid depending on how you classify that side hammer setup... I should rework the classification of side hammers just for this bot anyways because i have no idea how it can be precisely classified.
Yeah. I built 1/4th of it drunk, maybe.
wait why does it have lawnmower blades on the side hammers

now make a sns with angeld discs instead of wedges. and put razors on top so its a FS as wellyou of course mean an angled spinner/ SnS/wammer I think ?

Named Carabus invictus gigas, yes it's supposed to be carabid-themed but it doesn't look too much like one :P Maybe I should make it a side hammer/rammer/drill to make it more look like a ground beetle. It is obviously unfinished.
Somewhat out of inspiration and motivation to finish it though. Maybe I will make a shell panel armor thing. I also intend to add flamethrowers and some spiked strips in there.
I also am using the pause button a lot on that bot, else it just lags my game a lot.

so are you sending me the beetle or what
it needs a name as well. I wanted to name it after a beetle, but I couldn't find any good beetle fitting this bot. It's not massive enough to be a stag beetle (not a sidehammer as well), not fast enough to be a tiger beetle, doesn't look like a scarab or a rhino/hercules beetle ?Blister Beetle?
not a hybrid but whateverlol that's actually brilliant

wanna know how it steers ? it steers by ramming opponents/the walls/something and after a few rams, it is in the right direction SO IT HAS STEERED
GENIUS HUH
THAT HYBRID IS FREAKING GOD LIKE NARYAR I SHOULD MAKE A HYBRID 2 USING STATIC WEAPONS!You haven't seen any of Thyrus' bots, have you.
It's kinda messy
why the baseplate anchors and the generally shoddy extender work?It's for my Throwback Throwdown tournament. A tournament where it focuses on bots that are like BBEANS2.

idk man i just build thingswhy the baseplate anchors and the generally shoddy extender work?
Seems you need to enter tournaments more often, oh clueless one. :P
build a steamrollerdude i have a name for mango tango's bot type now
Side Hammer/Poker.
lol thats funny because 090901 give me a side hammer/spinner for me to build
but sure why not
aaaanyways, first dsl 2.2 bot
turret hammer, it's sh** due to havoking
3mm steel, 2mag drive, etc. it barely drives straight due to hypno wheels being too small but i don't feel like bfe'ing larger wheels
at least it's armored.
also it's inspired by Madiaba's bot... in gumba... the thing that beat Cataclysm IIRC. that was so long ago

weren't they always bursts?no
so.... a flipper? :mrgreen:
anyways, next will be a far manlier bot
they had "fire" in the wiring tabweren't they always bursts?no

Yep, metal hinges were indeed servos and they sucked. They would AGOD just about every time you put anything on them, so I'm glad clickbeetle changed them for DSL 2.2.(http://i.imgur.com/k5fNyM8.png)they had "fire" in the wiring tabweren't they always bursts?no
so is this a wammer/flipper/vs/flamer hybrid?

I haven't heard that name in a looooong time. Anybody have the splash saved from that?
I think the wheels are a bit off putting you have this big spikey armored bot with 4 tiny exposed tires in the back Id think it'd look better if those were concealed either in the chassis or with some nice looking wheel guards.
If the wedge is only poly, if you could upgrade it to aluminium its golden...or white you know, because snow.
two cent question : guess this bot's name"Emergency Baby"
close... but nope. the meaning's here though.two cent question : guess this bot's name"Emergency Baby"
two cent question : guess this bot's nameMini Emergency? Fatal Emergency? Emergency Jr.? I still think it should be named Emergency baby in my opinion.
4 bots built today. i am on fire apparentlyit pop-up?
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/4627VENGEANCE!.png)
new VENGEANCE. nothing exceptional. but a fast HS, as the previous one. think it has 5mm aluminium (which is pretty rare). NPC fasts.
it's pretty balanced in armor, speed and offense but a bit unstable. Then again, it's a fast hs. Live fast, kill quick, die hard !
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/79738darkwind.png)
Dark Wind, fourth bot in BLACK STORM. 3mm alu. Never really tested it, i bet the single FS ****s up the wedge but that's the design's flaw. Inspired by Coal Miner AND the original NAR AI Darkling, which was the former fourth bot in BLACK STORM and was a trapper.
Also I am having great difficulty finding a good name for it, fitting for the team. Dark and Stormy Night ? Storm Cloud ? Dark Wind ? Storm Warning ? Ugh, none of those strike me as particularly good.
And then I fail at building clamps
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/64226crankyclampy.png)
Well, it succeeded at the weaponed flipper part. Not the clamp part.
Still quite damaging and it's a "popup" (sorta kinda) with A LOT of weapons and very strong power. It's lacking a bit of chassis protection, to be honest, but then I wouldn't have that many weapons.
Not exactly sure what this is. Weaponed flipper/popup hybrid ?
anyways, Clanky Clampy (yes, it's a silly name, but then this is a Cranky Spanky rebuild so i'm forced to go with a similar name) NPC fasts, 5mm titanium. may rebuild it, but I'm happy with it. It's not exactly generic and if it gets under an enemy bot, then the enemy will know pain. VDMA bursts OP.
it pop-up?
do the irons actually work well on the FS?
Does Da Dogg have Fast NPC's, or just regular ones? I'm thinkin' that you could downgrade the extenders or remove a spike or two in order to up it to NPC Fast's.
oh god yes
but instead of making the chassis V-shaped, perhaps you can do that to the motor rack? I'm not quite sure how to make the bot more reliable when forcing bots up the wedges
Flippers tend to be better at getting bots out of arenas if you have them steeper. With this setup you'll mostly flip straight up/back over the bot.
I mean stock Sentinel had a steep front so it kind of fits as well.
Honestly, i've been thinking about maybe changing some components, calling it EMERGENCY and be done with it :PSounds good, keeping bots in the arena and annoying the hell out of them is very EMERGENCY like.

Sentinel is hard to pin down. From stock it's basically a less good EMERGENCY but the general consensus in mods was as a top tier flipper.
I like them all. nice work, nar.
I feel it would be better with the drive in the back instead of the supports.
That extender work...
You only need one extender on each side to give you the width. At the moment you have one for the front leg and one for the back.
does the game break if you put the perm on an axle so it can swing? that might be kool.definitely this but also wondering what the bot would be like as an axe/hammer type as well but i really like it
Looks sick. feels like how mudrunner should be.
probably your best attempt at irl yet
the chassis is probably like a 1x1 cube or something so i doubt you can even see whatever the chassis looks like
Next is middleweight. I'm probably going to make it an hybrid. I'm more than willing to get some ideas from you guys.
Looks good Naryar. Good choice of armour, good drive and good weaponry. Do you know how much damage you can do with your bot out of all curiosity?
looks pretty good. only thing i would do is swap out the ants with a battlepack
A hammer/rammer that's more rammer than hammer?
2 ants are lighter than a battlepack and take less place, so it's really a matter of not enough weight.
2 ants are lighter than a battlepack and take less place, so it's really a matter of not enough weight.
but you have 3 ants, which is heavier than a battlepack, and since you only have 2 motors you only need the battlepack
1 battlepack and 1 ant? Same electotal but less weight?2 ants are lighter than a battlepack and take less place, so it's really a matter of not enough weight.

iirc, battlepacks have electotal of 2 ants, and 2 ants isn't enough in DSL 2.2. so i went with 3.

i'm sure it's effective but the front hinge burst just looks weird sticking up on top of a bot like that
you're also once again using 3 ants where a battlepack would work and weigh less, though im unsure if you could squeeze a battlepack in that chassis
-"thicc robo"when are you building this one
-"thicc robo"when are you building this one
When Naryar builds IRLNot bad, but I recommend that you try and put a little more power in the main weapon by sacrificing some of the armour like if you're using Titanium 5, you could swap it for something light like Plastic 5. Unless you're using those back, bracket wedges for holding batteries or something, resize the chassis if you can unless you do have stuff in those bracket wedges. For the main weapon itself, the chewblades aren't a good choice for a HW since they'll break before you KO someone, try seeing if you can something like a small minion disc if possible for more damage. Still, the design does hold out.

Dirty Dragon. NPC fasts, 798 or so.
I think it's too fast, and it's a bit unstable. Ground clearance may want to be reviewed.
But I like it aesthetically.
That should be for Helloface's IRL HW tournament, by the way.
Why don't the saws line up?The RA2 is a jerk like that
Of all the hybrid choices in the world, why this one? :really_makes_you_think:
part of me almost wishes you did like a single flipper in the middle and made the chassis more of a firestorm shape, it might even let you add some weapons on the side to help both corral them onto the flipper and also help with the sns.
Of all the hybrid choices in the world, why this one? :really_makes_you_think: I can't think of any situation where this hybrid is practical, let alone useful
Think you might have a bit too much battery power there, man. Surely just the two black's and the ant would be enough?
Also the width of that chassis has me thinking perhaps some optimization work could be done on it.

is it ? I'm quite rusty with the DSL 2.2 meta. i'll try less batteries.
dusts cobwebsI like it, reminds me if Slashback and Ripblade 2 from 2.2 had a lovechild
(https://i.ibb.co/0scGJvj/cuttingmachine.png)
here you go. building some DSL-S stuff. (is that still a living metagame or is it completely dead ?) some fairly standard bot. 3mm titanium, four ants as you can likely guess. i actually skinned that one so it looks better.
i'm going to build another hybrid, likely a HW. Also if you feel like giving me some ideas for hybrid building, go forward. maybe i'll build *three* bots today.
also for hybrids try a DSL IRL Flipper/Crusher
As for hybrid suggestions, hammer/true popup?
dsl 2.2 it is. yea, i know about ant spam, tried to use bigger batteries but no space - the original build had a battlepack but it was unrealistic.Looks to me like you can squeeze a black in there instead of the ants, though I may be wrong.
again, a ripping teeth is too big. this weapon is just the right size. i don't like typhoon teeth this much, they don't look good.
Speaking of unrealistic, here's Thagomizer
(https://i.ibb.co/j6j1pMT/thagomize.png)
normal npc's, 1mm plastic only. it seems to work. wish there was some 45° angle.

multiextender then?
make it a HW boyyo. you can do it narz
>DSL-S DSL 2.1 in 2019
Also I have an idea for a hybrid: shell spinner + face spinner
go full woke and put the face spinner on the burst motors. bonus points if you have another going overhead:really_makes_you_think:
even more bonus points if you use the nar ai dragons breath motor. and harpoons
might be able to do a bit of a weight save by swapping the hinges for skirts (presumably have to axle load them to get both on a bot this thin), since i'm pretty sure there's no significant difference
LW inertia flipper? looks cool, nice tight buildnot even sure it it's an inertia flipper per se. just a dumb rage III style build.
might be better with shorter wedges cus it looks a little thin/flankable
i get what you're going for with the wheelguard skirts but i'm wondering if there is a better way to use the weight. you don't even need an angled chassis with this design really? you could probably get some more weapons or widen the wedges with the weight you save if you build the chassis like this \_/ instead of |_|
