Teeth have normals and fail anyways. Ripblade III uses beater bars and it RAPES the old Ripblade 2.

Should I use them instead?

Use something without normals.

What exactly are normals?

Urjak · « **Reply #103 on:** September 01, 2009, 08:02:51 PM »

Normals on a componets means there is a set spot on a weapon which deals damage. The weapon will not do damage should you hit an oponent with a different part of it.

like the blunt side of a knife vs the ouchy side

And that means weapons without normals do damage no matter how they hit... generally means more damage, so better.

I just got some skin/decal packs, now I have more pInt styles to choose from!

Edit: BTW, which version of Nobody Cares do you think is better?

I'm not sure what to do with the extra weight.

DP and Bump!

Betcha didn't think to see me post another DSL bot, did you?

This is my possible CC3 entry. 2 problems: it's underweight, and its srimech doesn't work.

Any advice?

When I read that I was like WTF???!!!

Natef · « **Reply #112 on:** December 22, 2009, 09:51:34 PM »

The thing is: I like stock A LOT more than DSL. I've been waiting for a stock tourney for a while, but none have come up.

The only thing(s) wrong with the bot is that it is hard it outwedge other wedges. Also, the weapons have a short range.

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #114 on:** February 10, 2010, 09:06:30 PM »

use metal hinges for the wedge.

trumpetguy · « **Reply #115 on:** February 10, 2010, 09:10:03 PM »

He can stick with that wedge, depending on a few factors: how heavy are the wedges, how much degrees is the hinge, and etc. Just look a HazCon, skirt hinge wedges can be effective if done right.

Make the chassis smaller.

russian roulette · « **Reply #117 on:** February 10, 2010, 09:51:48 PM »

Underpowered, yet looks effective for a DSL2.1 bot. You do need better wedges, hmmm. I say take the skirt hinges out... use Flipper segments+ small wedges. Take away the 2 1/2 sheets and add a static full one. That should protect it and make it more effective.

I'm aware that skirt hinge wedges can be good, I have some bots with skirt hinge wedges that can get under metal hinges. Unless I read his post wrong, he's saying that his bot has a hard time outwedging other bots, which probably means that the wedges suck.

Shorten the chassis, perhaps give it a slope of some sort, so you can attach a 30kg tite sheet to a 45-degree anchor, and use metal hinge wedges. Also, moar ants.
