You finally made Showcase. That's Good! :approve:

And the bot... Well, Build to the weight limit and Use only Ant Batteries.
And Of course, It needs weapons.

Really needs weapons. I would get rid of 4 wheels and use 4 ants instead of all those orange batts.

And the bot... Well, Build to the weight limit OR DOWNGRADE TO MW'S and Use only Ant Batteries ON LW'S ONLY.
And Of course, It needs weapons. A rammer is a good place to start.

fix'd.

If you add weapons, you might accidentally win.
My bot was not designed to win.   :laughing

1 ant per spin motor is the rule, as far as I can work out from what people have been saying. But I always make it a point to slightly overpower my bots, just to make sure that they don't run out of power halfway through. So this would do fine with 4 ants, swap the two ant wheels for Hypnos, possibly, and trim the chassis down slightly. That should knock it back into an MW, I think.

Care to justify why ants should only be used on LWs? :P
Title: Re: Otso´s DSL Showcase
Post by: FOTEPX on August 29, 2010, 10:05:39 AM
Because they are a very small and easy power sauce to fit into LW's. They are the easiest power sauce to fit into LW'S.

why can't you use them on MW's and HW's?

Must i clean this showcase before it catches even more crap ?

Constructive criticism was asked so it will be given -

-The bot is overpowered. Use only ant batts for ALL spin motors (1 or 2 for each, 2 if you want them to last longer)
-Try to use two wheel drive NPCs or NPC Fasts if you want a fast MW, NOT 4 Astroflights. 4 Astroflights is terribly unefficient.
-More than 1 wheel per motor is weight wasted.
-If you want to keep with the "pacifist" theme you might want a flipper (somehow a non-violent way to win), because here it's not doing much.

Flippers work fine for me :)

All my bots, apart from the newest, have been flippers, flick through some showcases.
Have a look at Nary's and G.K's because that's where I looked!

Thanks, but mine isn't the place to look. Check Nary's, R0B0's, Pwn's, Ounce's, Urjak's and MikeNCR's. For more adventurous stuff, there's 123's, JoeBlo's and Click's.

Lol I am not sure how to comment on a bot that's intended "not" to win.

Add ballast maybe?
