Real nice bot, Nar.
Where do you find the time?

but I think Sage's bot might outwedge it *hinthint*

What ???

*Goes FFFFUUUUUUUUU-*

@Mad : Well i built it pretty quickly... the most time-consuming part was rebuilding the chassis like 10 times for finding the smallest dimensions and height (especially height) i could fit the bot in.

And i find the time where you find the time for writing crazy awesome .py's

Edit: Talking of py files, i think i'm going to hybrid Popup.py and OmniMultizone.py and use the result for this... i'm not happy with the smartzone.

True, about the time... I like facilitating tourneys and promoting the game.

If you need a hand on the AI.py work, let me know... I've some sneaky 'defensive' thoughts for gut-slasher engagement.

I think i can do this on my own. I most likely won't get better at modding RA2 if i rely on others for relatively easy tasks.

I might need your helpful advice if delving deeper in modding however. I'll contact you if I need help !

NARYAR.

I can't use your Dummy FBS .py without a bot! Send one! Unless the controls are EXACTLY the same as what FBS_1 uses...

Well I'm waiting for your AI Naryar, but popup.py worked well, not to full potential though...but then again during a trial and error AI testing almost all the bots got under some of the best wedges in NAR AI. Mine didn't get under any wedges period, possibly because I don't have wedges *spoiler*

HELL YEAH INVERTIBLE JUGGLER

Night Terror 2 - 8 ants, 5mm Ti, 2 halfsheets on the bottom for protection.

Invertible, but the wheels leave the ground when driving forward inverted because of weight distribution issues.

Not tested yet - will probably rebuild it because of the problem stated before.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #547 on:** December 07, 2009, 08:51:12 AM »

interesting so it because something like a TS when inverted ? whats the weight ?

Reier · « **Reply #548 on:** December 07, 2009, 10:06:49 AM »

Ewwww Overkills...
IDK about the bot.

Yes it's a TS inverted, and the weight is (i think) 799.1.

I had to use Overkills for invertibility.

And yes, with a little testing, the bot isn't very good. Will rebuild it and hopefully it will be better.

Dark Messiah - 10mm plastic, 7 ants, normal NPC drive. I think you can guess it has 2 small wedges at the front...

As expected, the single spinner's recoil is a major issue on a fast'n'wedgy bot - most likely going to free weight somewhere and get 4 NPC fasts.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #551 on:** December 08, 2009, 09:12:48 AM »

hmm I feel that chassis shape could waste a bit of weight

Naryar · « **Reply #552 on:** December 08, 2009, 09:32:05 AM »

I built it like that because i know wedges are more efficient if you put them really forward, and it's not really wasted weight since the additional kg's invested in the chassis go in the total chassis hitpoints.

Might trim it down though.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #553 on:** December 08, 2009, 09:35:48 AM »

its mainly the front section that could be shaved a bit, it could be done a bit different...

I dont really know ? the chassis is probably fine... the robot just "feels" a little off your standards

Naryar · « **Reply #554 on:** December 08, 2009, 09:39:28 AM »

I built that in less than 30 mins you know...

And yes, the front chassis probably needs some work.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #555 on:** December 08, 2009, 09:47:18 AM »

no I didnt know that

that would explain the "prototyping" of it

still looks good, nice to see a spinner that isnt a dozen irons :P

The thing doesn't even have any extenders dummy.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #558 on:** December 08, 2009, 10:28:42 AM »

see the DSL 3 preview thread. I think thats what he is referring to

Doomkiller · « **Reply #559 on:** December 08, 2009, 07:45:08 PM »

Dark messiah? Not a bad game that...

As for the bot, im kinda not surprised that the recoil spins it off course. Not bad for a prototype though.

O, and wheres ur build of sting of scorpion eh?
