NFX.showcase/DSL
« on: April 28, 2010, 12:52:30 PM »
I've started trying some new things with the DSL mod, largely due to signing up for BBEANS 6, and I'm gonna see how I can improve. Here's the first real competitive bot I've come up with, Spin Doctor. 2 E-Tek Drive motors, 2 E-Tek weapons motors, and 3 PC565 batteries, combined with 2 AW batteries (Had a little weight left over) means that the power output is almost bang on the power drain of the motors. Will probably replace the Base Anchors at some point.

Only needs 4 ants and it needs way more weaponry. Also NPC fasts and Technos are better than ETEK drive and N-12s.

Also, as I found out, those 30kg titanium side pieces just aren't that good. You'd be better off using a medium or large ski or something to that extent to protect the wheels.

I'm not entirely sure what patch I have, to be honest. And I'll see what I can do to improve it. =) Also been working on a 6WD rammer, I'll put it up here soon.

Not really been on DSL that much, but I've got NAR AI now, and also JoeBlo's SHW and UHW components. So I decided to try and improve my RIP2 entry. 6 Mag Drive motors, 4 of the red batteries, and god knows how many ants. Probably around 20. Kinda built to be more defensive than offensive. And look cool. XD I really suck at DSL.

Only needs 7 ants, this could probably be downgraded to a HW. What's the armor?

Yeah, I went for the 20 ants due to the Dual Perm's 309 Amp requirement. And it's 1mm Aluminium, I think. Also used the Superlow Chassis glitch.

Thats not even enough weaponry for a HW anymore. Looks cool though.


Note: It is possible to get a dual perm and tribar with hammers into a HW.

...that's more what I was going for. XD I tend to start out by building bots that look cool, rather that battle effective. Then I get better. I hope.

Don't think so. There's the original Force in RIP2 at the minute.

Oh that. Yeah, I built that waaaaaaay back.
 
And I've tweaked this version of FORCE 2 a little bit. Removed most of the unnecessary batteries, gave it s different wedge at the front, fitted better hammers, 1mm steel armour, and mounted the Dual Perm further back. Still can't get the hang of building wedges in DSL at all, but it can still do this:
