Naryar's DSL showcase - Oldschool DSL-S with 2.2

[DG]

Cool, will allow for so many more designs now, thanks.

[Naryar]

How do you get your chassis so thin in the first place?

By raising the bar as high as possible, then clicking on the lowest possible pixel on it

Not exactly... just clicking one pixel under the bar.

[JoeBlo]

*cough* BFE *cough*

[Naryar]

I did not BFE'd chassis height since... well quite a long time. :P

ANYWAYS !



5mm titanium, 1 large Puma under the piston, all NPC fasts and you can see the rest. Plus added invertibility (yes, yes, credit to that snow leopard for the drive setup)

Unsure about the spike strips and razors though. Might change it in a better way.

[Pwnator]

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

And what's wrong with the razors?

'nother noob question:  Were the small black batteries also rebalanced for NAR AI?

Way back then in v1

And what's wrong with the razors?

They most likely block enemy wedges from climbing.

Maybe Mike started it... but if you did not used it on Critical Emergency 3 i would not have used this setup here :P

55200 electotal. Why would i use them if they were not rebalanced ?

You always have to be right don't you? :P

[Naryar]

Yes.

And it's a simpler solution anyways.

[Clickbeetle]

Does it still have a baby in a bee suit on the bottom? 


Looks like a good bot, but yeah those razors might block stuff... perhaps angle them down a bit so they're more wedge-shaped.

[Naryar]

O HAI



5mm Ti i think, NPC Fasts and the 4 servos are connected to a single analog control.


I simplified Kepher.py and made it more user friendly for that, but i probably am doing it wrong:

I could also have used 4 different commands (one for each servo) but the py probably would have turned into a gigantic lag fest.

[R0B0SH4RK]

Looks like it would lack the KO power Kepher had due to nearly zero KE in the weapons. Mabye put spinners on the top two arms? Looks good other than that.

[Naryar]

It's not done to be a killer anyways. And i'm not adding spinners :P

Notably because the HP servos are faster than expected... i KO'd Shogun with 45000 points.

Main issue - unstable as all !

[Naryar]

Mass post !



The Will to Power - 3mm plastic, 3 ants.

Pretty good, but barely invertible :P



The new Storm Demon. Dunno about the real efficiency of these skirts to protect the wheels. 5mm steel IIRC



Fireside replacement. 5 times better. 1mm Ti ,should make a smaller chassis and give it 1mm Steel though



Count the razors :P

Aaaand behold ! King Grog !



4 ants, 5mm Titanium, and it managed to beat HnM 4 :O

[Pwnator]

I think Accretion Disk's chassis can be used for your Fireside replacement. XD

And how exactly did Grog 3 beat HnM 4? KO?

[Naryar]

Yes, KO. Both were very close in points and Grog had nearly no chassis hitpoints left.

So i can use Accretion Disk ? Hmm. Will see.

[Scrap Daddy]

Does that wammer have flame throwerz?

and are you back now naryar?

[Naryar]

These have no flamers. They're just SPAM RAZORS !!!!1 against shell.

And yes i am back.

[Pwnator]

60 razors? :P

[Naryar]

Exact !
