Title: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: pokebro14 on September 26, 2017, 11:31:47 AM
Hi! I've just got into making IRL bots and so here is a showcase and hopefully you like them. My first bot I shall present to you is Tohru maximus who is pretty successful by my standards. Any feedback is appreciated

Great to see ya made a showcase!

I like the look of this 'bot, especially with the punny name. Only problems are that the skin's a bit pixelated and the drum should be connected proper, but its a great first attempt nonetheless! :D

Also, whats its armour? ;P

Thanks

And yeah I tried getting the image better with not much success which is why I put the image at the side. Im just working on the drum now :). Steel 5 or 3 but im pretty sure its 5

This is very impressive, Im guessing you've done a lot of lurking as I see you around the forums. My only criticism is the drum connecting to each other and also that you don't need that big battery. Non the less it's a great bot & I hope to see more from you soon.

Yeah the drum needs work but for now it does its job

Whilst RA2 can only export the chassis texture at 256x256, you can import larger texture sizes into it (512x512 or 1024x1024 being some more common sizes).

There's not much more I can suggest that hasn't already been said but it's a very good first bot. Excited to see what else you can make. :)

Digging some of the details. Really like the use of the wedgelets near the wheelguards.  Solid showcase starter.

Thanks for the tip I will try it tonight. Also not technically my first IRL bot just my best one the others are going up tomorrow (I dont know why I felt the need to point this out)

That really means a lot man, though you're probably doing a lot better than me. With the drum, you could add another drum to each, it'll make it more complete

Keep it up you've got a good bot here

Looks very good for a first showcased bot. I'm gonna echo the advice everyone else has already given, with the addition that I'd personally try to connect the wheelguards to the back of the bot somehow, as in real life they'd be Hella fragile only being attached at 1 point like that.

Good stuff though. Keep it up  :smile:

Yeah I don't have much weight left which Is not very good for the IRL aspect

Also the image is now fixed so it now looks better

Post by: F1Krazy on September 26, 2017, 03:24:28 PM
Time for my signature advice: you don't need that much battery power. Two black batteries will probably do. That'll save you some weight that you can use neatening up the drum and/or wheelguards. If you have Steel 5 armour you can also save weight by switching to Plastic 10, as it's about the same strength but slightly lighter. Solid first effort, though! Looking forward to seeing your other bots!

And maybe with the extra weight you could add more beaters along the bar
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: pokebro14 on September 27, 2017, 12:50:45 AM
After the great response Tohru Maximus got I thought I might show you my other bots that I made before I made Tohru so I expect you guys have quite a few suggestions

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

notes:
.Croc-U-Bot is a reference to the Rick and Morty character
.Croclett trips over himself a lot
.Croc-U-Bot only has a small space between his jaws
.Croclett has the same drum type of drum type as Tohru so it does need to be changed
.Both use a skirts hinge to help there design
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: F1Krazy on September 27, 2017, 12:56:20 AM
Croc-U-Bot looks pretty cool! If you can shave some weight off somewhere, I'd recommend putting some actual teeth in the jaws. Croclett also looks nice, and you've got 20kg to play with so you should be able to fix up the drum. Some of the extenders are clipping through the wheels, don't know whether that's a problem or not.

I might try move the wheels  a bit to make it look nicer and yeah Croc-u-bot needs a bit more bite

Can Croc-U-Bot find me and eat me
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: Philippa on September 27, 2017, 04:06:23 AM
Wen vore fetishist confirm.

I think Croc-U-Bot would look better with smaller black discs for the eyes, then use the leftover weight to put a few teeth in the jaw, maybe Matila teeth or steel shark teeth. Good stuff for a new member, though, keep it up.
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: Hoppin on September 27, 2017, 05:04:57 AM
These are really nice bots as well. Croc-u-bot looks nice, like Kurt said if you lose some weight maybe in the eyes you'd be able to add some teeth. You mich also be able to change the wheels to something more thinner, that'll also give a bit of weight. As for Croclett. You could put the discs on the outerside of the drum which should connect the drum up. And instead of using ant motors you can use flat motors, which are in the CB2 menu. [Name your bot cheatbot2 to access it]. And with 20kg left to use for Crocett you could add more beaters perhaps. Overall really great bots, keep it up :thumbup

Or use buster wheels or large ant wheels
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite

Here are the new builds of each bot

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

Croc-U-Bot has smaller eyes, both jaws moving up and down, teeth and smaller wheels

Croclett has new weapon motor and weapon(for some reason I wasn't on component freedom and it still let be merge the drums),doesn't trip as much and added wedges

Both have spare weight which im going to use for cosmetic stuff

Clean, drum connection is something I haven't seen before, looks pretty ok. I think you could add a 45 extender on the side to tip the bot back on it's wheels, not getting stuck on it's side n all

I quite like it. Only part I'd suggest changing is trying to get rid of the 'lip' in the transition between the chassis and the drum supports to make it more seamless

I really really like that first one. It's very simple but seems like a super cohesive bot. The plows are super underused too and you've managed to make it look great. Maybe lacking in drive power a bit though.

True he is quite slow which is why the other was made to be quite fast to counteract this

I agree with TheRoboteer, I would also say the other bot has some exposed flat motors, still pretty good though

Post by: F1Krazy on September 30, 2017, 01:04:35 PM
Those are pretty neat. Beastly Black definitely needs beefing up: switch to Colson wheels, make the front wedge steel if it isn't already, make the beater bars bigger (they'd line up better with the rest of the bar too). Maybe add some wheelguards, if you can fit some on. You're showing definite promise, though!

I actually like RadioWave though
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: Hoppin on October 06, 2017, 06:25:33 AM
These are once again to very nice bots however, the ring spinner is 5.5kg overweight to be classed as a CW, I would recommend just removing the beaters. Like Neon said the disc isn't center. I've noticed that you could raise the motors up, this would mean you wouldn't have to use casters, giving you more weight and reduction your ground clearance. Other than that, it's very good.

RadioWave looks like a very thought out bot, very clean. though, Is there a reason for the CO2 bottles? Also you still have too many batteries, for the 4 spin motors you have you would only need the 2 black batteries. Not only this the wedges you've used I would recommend putting a 40cm extender sideways on a metal hinge, then attaching the wedges to the extenders, then adjusting the start & end point of the hinge so the wedges are pointing slightly below the bot, this will make the wedges more effective. And you probably could provide more motor protection, or more beaters for weapons.

 The CO2 bottles are for flamethrowers located just below the weapon I will get rid of them if a tournament dosn't allow flamethrowers but they are pretty effective at getting extra points.

Big fan of RadioWave, though I'm wondering if you have the latest version of DSC's packs because you could switch the wedgelets on the front to white or red to fit better with the rest of the colour scheme if you do.

As for Omnitrix I'm gonna echo what everyone else has said by suggesting you try to centre the disc. Looks fairly standard for a sing spinner other than that though.

Here are some robots I've been working on over the week. Hope you like um

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

.Rad Rocket is the best grabber I've made only really struggles with horizontal spinners. A wedge design for him is in production im just trying to work out some of the design

.Evoo Dragoo is suprisingly effective with only 1 loss to the IRL version of Critical Emergency. If you cant tell it is based on saw blaze who Is one of my favourite battlebots from the reboot.

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

.Dino-Mighty is a design I've been wanting to make for a while in real life and RA2. It has spike strips at the bottom of the flipper for both aesthetic and points. It has a lot of weight left to use which is good.

.Buster is basically a complete copy of beta so nothing special,quite effective in combat.

Nicely crafted machines. Dino-Mighty's my favourite as it reminds me a bit of Tashic's LW, Sprinter.

The only thing that is irking me is the top part of the clamp on Red Rocket as it doesn't seem to fit in correctly with the rest of the 'bot.

Bad Rocket - I really like this, clean looking wheels guards. Funky looking jaws. Really top tier here. As far as HS spinner defence goes, maybe if you can find the weight, place 40x40 triangles onto the bottom jaw where the triangle placed are.

Evoo Dragoo - Whilst some of it looks a bit messy, mainly due to Ra2's limiting angles with armour plates, this is my favourite of the bunch. Im guessing the wedges are on a hinged wedge. I do also think you can make it even more compact, might have to be a bit wider though. Still This is a insane bot and I'd love to see what you can improve on it.  :heart_smiley:

Dino-Mighty - Nice wheelguards, Flipper looks nice, though I would like to see it flushed with the wedge. Overall very nice but you still have 80kg to use so maybe add some flair or armour.

Buster - Like you said, Beta clone. with the last 40kg you might be able to add some more poly- carb on top, I'd just say try give it some more character and make it different from just a straight copy of beta.

Overall, these are amazing, best bots you've made so far and I cannot wait to see how they've improved. I might also have to steal some of the design choices myself ;) Keep it up man

You can probably see that his servo motor is crossing over a little bit with the drive and I may have to look into changing that.

Hinged or static? If its hinged just mess with the angles till its good. I usually test the wedge on the lockers in the test area. Overall I like the design of this bot. But yea like you said the servo clips through the drive motor.

This weeks bot dump is here hope you guys like em. I did make some embarrassing mistakes in the image.

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

Robogedon-The flipper is very strong but frame is weak.
Unoriginal design-enough said. I pit 366.9 instead of 766.9
The X forcer-The name is a reference to the X factor and the bot is a rebuilt Cross fire made by Gary Cairns.
Metallic Design- Metallic Dragon was based of AfterShock and yes I spelt it wrong on the image.
Spiker 5000000-Spiker is based of Andron 4000. Yes I made 2 mistakes on the image A.He dosn't have his 5000000 at the end B. There shouldn't be a point in between the 7 and 91.

Robbogedon looks stunning, but my worry is battery life cuz they're two burst betas in there, other than that it looks amazing

Unoriginal Design, you still have about 30kg to use, maybe add some teeth to the bar or turn some panels for Al (if they are) to Ti. Still really clean looks great

The X Forcer, like you said its cross fire, only concern is the legs.

Metallic Dragon is my favourite of the lot, great panelling and extender work. Maybe some small amount of colouring would help it.

Spiker - Beautiful, I would recommend however, changing the spike of the beak to a cutting tooth, should look a lot better.

You're killing it man, keep it up

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

Tohro 2 - This is looking a lot sleeker than the last one. Looks great. Not sure what else to see with inside shots. And you still have 20kg to use

Shooshine - Im guessing its a overhead disc spinner. Looks like it could be developed further maybe turn the beaters into small tyhpoon teeth. And a skin for this would complete it.

Zap -Best out of all of thesethough the shrimech looks flimsy. I think if you add supports to them itd be real nice.

Pink plunderer - turn the disc into a bar and itd look a lot better.

Golem - green zap. Try and distinguish it from zap

Hells teeth - Looks great not sure how damaging it is. But its a great bot

Money bug - lifting claws Im guessing. I think the claws would have to be large to be more effective

Bamboozler - apocalypse inspired? The arms look a bit feeble so if you can do something with that it was really complete it

Some good bots here though its kinda difficult to give detailed advice without a view of the insides
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite

Only a Mini Bot Dump this week. These 3 are very strong and so far haven't last a fight. I would love to hear suggestions what do with the weight as all pretty underweight.

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

.Trump's Misfortune is the best of the 3 and Is a knock of concussion
.Golem 2 has had the quickest kills but does lacks a self righting mechanism
.JET is a weird 259 type robot that I was thinking about adding mechavore discs onto instead of typoon teeth and disc 

Leave any suggestions for types of robots to build next because it feels like im just building lots of spinners and grabbers
Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: Hoppin on November 12, 2017, 05:58:52 AM
TM - Looks great. With the extra weight I recommend just adding large beaters, this might require you to move the motors up, still looks great.

Jet - Just add some front armour panelling if you haven't already. I see the triangle holes at the front. And the weapon support looks flimsy I say you should beef that up.

Golem 2 - Much more streamlined that the last Golem so good job there. Maybe add a hobgoblin style wedge on a hinge. Top and back armour plates might be soemthing you wanna add. In regards to the shrimech. I think you should try make it invertable.

Only one bot this weekend but this ones a robot I've been trying to perfect for a while.
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

.Doom Dog is a robot inspired by Spectre who is competing in King Of Bots.
.The robot is very compact and theirs a decent amount of clipping that I will have to sort out
.The flamethrower is strong but runs out very fast
.The jaw is good for control although the teeth aren't to strong
.Armour is plastic 10 with wheel gaurds being aluminium and titanium

Heres the forth bot dump. These bots were quite experimental and They are very light for the weight classes they are supposed to be for so Im going to need a lot of suggestions
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
.UoK is supposed to be HW but is very very light due to it being compact.
.Coldcut could probably be down graded to a MW or I could add stronger motors and some extra armour to make it a CW.
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
.Blood Moon is the only bot in this dump thats close to its weight category. Hes basically an updated TohruMaximus 2.
.MR Money Bags is the most in need of change as I've got a lot of weight to play with and its very limited as there's not much space. It originaly only had to back wheels but it was hella slow so I added some front wheels to be sort of sacrificial. I've already got a few new designs in mind for him.   


Title: Re: Pokébros DSL TipSite
Post by: Badnik96 on November 26, 2017, 09:43:35 PM
blood moon looks great, but could do with a higher-res skin. when you open up the custom skin in paint, try resizing it to 512x512 or 1024x1024. that'll make your skin look a lot clearer.

you seem to like making bots very small and compact, which isnt a bad thing, but it can hurt you a lot as you see with UOK and Mr Money Bags. What I would do is make the chassis larger on Money Bags so you can fit in better drive motors. Making it wider in general would probably be a good idea so it could take on HS more effectively.

UOK could also do with a slightly larger chassis in order to fit in a 6-mag, as well as a wider dsl bar to increase your damage output.

Cold Cut looks decent, what armor is it at right now? first thing i would do is put something on the back so it can't get stranded there

Just a Quick Update on Mr Money bags now a HW with a big disc  running on a perm 127.
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

And an experimental MW Overhead thwak bot named oran-genie that has its weapon on a hindge.
Its actually quite fun to fight with but lacks control.

Just A few bots I've been working on. There all a bit underwhelming but hey hey

MatriX
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Matrix is a thor knock off that is surprisingly a CW. The hammer comes down pretty fast and the wedge can take alot of hits but the wheel guards are only Aluminium

Jolt
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Jolt is a very basic pusher/undercutter CW that is surprisingly effective. The saw dosent do much damage but it can sometimes catch a good edge.

Grease
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
Grease is my entry for battlearcade2 and has got some surprising flipping power. The robot was based of gruff who competed in robogames for a few years.

Okay big bot dump today

CW
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
.The prankster is of course nuts and his current win/lose record is 2-10 so yeah
.Was cooking Good looking is a ranging scottsman type bot that is way to fast for its own good but oh well it is effective
.Mastermind is a bot based of mega melvin, the hammer is strong but tends to flip himself over
.Olive Oil is a basic carbide type spinner, does ok in competition but is a little weak in armour
.Witches cat is a very tough machine the spinner is strong, defence is good and hes invertable but the skin is pretty bad

HW
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
.R.A.N stands for ready aim negotiate any body who gets that is awesome
.Much flip is my 1st full extender bot with a pretty good flipper
.Grab-O-Saw is Dino mighty with some changes like bigger wheels, new weapon and so on
.Wak A Bot is based of blacksmith and is pretty good but the arm is quite weak
.The coming storm is based of my Favorite bot terrorhurtz and Is quite good especially against my arch nemesis full body spinners
.Blood brother is a rapid style bot and is defiantly the best flipper I've ever made.In the photo he has little Christmas decoration on

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
.TopLeft-WeeGee: I just dont know.... yeah,HW,no real weapon...just a joke bot
.TopRight-Super RAT: Parody of mega mouse HW quite good although the thin arm makes it hard to aim a flip
.BottomRight-EEE Yup: This thing is a 6wd 4 arm thwak bot that has so far lost once to a flipper due to the weapon being so strong
.BottomLeft-CrackerJack: To Balance out the weird bots in this dump here's crackerjack an electric boogaloo clone that is very strong although the wheels and back armour is a big weakness

So how about a rip-off of SMIDSY. C.R.A.S.H is sort of a swiss army bot with these 3 versions.
 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
TopLeft is its current form SMIDSY with its drum. The drum is powered on a perm 80 and has medium teeth.
TopRight is the old series 7 version with a back cutting disc running on perm132 and strong wedge.
BottomLeft is just a jaw that has spike strips and wedges that can do decent damage although I had to give the bot weaker armour to be able to make the jaw.

.Ice cream Wave is an Ice wave clone and the Cleanest looking in my opinion
.Angry Squirrel,Foxic with servo tail
.H.S.D stands for Horizontal Spinner Destroyer because it has a good wedge. Also yes The way I did the armour is weird But I think It works alright on terms of look

 [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

DeeM8 - Rather bland. I would recommend 1, adding more heavy weapons on the end of the tail, other than that it's ok.
KingE - Again ok, rather boxy though, Id recommend sorting out the front end, it looks rather boxy, and Im guessing it doesn't lift much as I don't see many countweights on the other side of the arm. And work on making it less boxy
Unoriginal Sin - Like the body of the bot, but I don't like the wedge setup you have, I'd recommend making it one solid wedge and making it more shallower. Other than that, not bad
Barbie - Looks cool. Cant really comment on the rest. Maybe to fix the slowness either motor upgrade or up the wheels to something more grippy, you can probs loose the spike strips in you need to loose the weight for it.
NeoDrummer - Very nice, still I recommend you use that 10-15kg by either increasing armour or protecting the flat motors.
D.E.F - Needs front armour, anything with a longer reach will wreck it. Not bad otherwise, but the mech disc is a bit eh.

You really need to show insides of bots it'll allow us to give better feedback than just a photo with some notes.

You can drop the 2 black bats to 2 red bats, this will give you 10kg to use to upgrade the sides to Ti. The issue I also see with this is that it has no way of getting back on it's wheels. To sort this maybe you can raise the motors up and add casters to the top.

.The robot: so this bots name is based of a GTM  member no prizes for guessing who. As for the bot I was originally going to just make him a wedge but I had 100kg left for ever a flamethrower or a very small disc. One of the bottles is sort of going through the weapon so I will sort that out.

.Doombuggy2: so the original doom buggy is competing in banter wars season 3 and I though that I should build a dsl version. He looks nothing like the original apart from some design similarity's such as flipper and roll cage.I put the original just below the new version.

.gravestone: shameless tombclone incoming. The bot is probably my first effective spinner that isn't cruiser weight. He has alot of mass on the weapon which helps it get a few neat hits. The main body is very empty.

.Shrek: this bot was based on ripper from the live circuit. The actual bot is very messy. I put 2 extra small burst in so he has a bit more oomth bu still he lacks power if a bot is in certain positions. The side panels come of easy but the front and top can take numerous hits . It's allaround ok

Ok so its that time as well then
The robot: Simple. Clean. But assuming its 2wd you only need 1 red the power the bot. Extra weight can be spent on better armour, another flamethrower or more tanks.

Doom Buggy 2: Not bad. Not sure how many batteries you have in there so I just recommend testing it to make sure ots enough.

Gravestone: Nice work on the weapon. Id recommed compacting the chassis and the extender work around it as much as you can. Thatd give you more weight to put else where.

Shrek: Um idk. It just seems rather messy like you said just clean it up and itd look and perform better

So I wont be around for half term(thanks school)so I just wanted to show some bots before it. This is probably my most successful extender bot and has had an impressive track record.
I had a prototype version that I was going to show off before my computer died but it looks no where near as good as this. also sorry for very little info I just couldn't think of anything to say

Anyone else sick of me posting bots. Here is my latest creation,Nuts+pop team epic=A robot that is really fun to fight with. I did say the clusterbots are interchangeable but what I meant was that I could only have one on the field so I created 2 that I can swap around despite the fact they do the exact same thing. Also sorry I didn't post an internal shot but the internals are very basic with just battery,motor and control board.

Jelly Chan(I was also thinking about super fast jelly fish as a name but I doubt anybody will get the reference)
580.4
6WD
.Really nothing great but he has charm.....yeah hes pretty useless
.I tried to designing weird shaped claw thing thats good at keeping distance from big spinners much like one of my configurations of switch blade in swiss army warfare.

Looks like you've done a pretty good job.

I'd actually recommend you have poly-carbonate panels on top, as there aren't many axes in LW and in doing so you can cover the gap at the front, covering the batteries.

Also can we get a view of the insides?

Its very simple and as for changing the aluminium to polycarb well I was sorta being more worried about Vertical spinners but I suppose I could change the bottom of it seeing that the spinner takes up most of the bottom.

I just realised that if I hadn't of entered into robogames so quickly I could have entered this thing cri

Post by: Hoppin on March 20, 2018, 02:50:09 PM
I'd actually move the batteries further back, You could also use only a black bat and an ant, but that would require you redesign it to fit. With that, you could then use then weight on the main body and could apply better under armour. Aim to have the main body 40cm long. Try making the important part of the frame out of Ti extenders.

Remember, with undercutters you have to make sure the weapon doesn't hit the ground or it'll deal no damage, i'd recommend using a hex disc or something like that, maybe a drum attached to the motor depending on the ground clearance.

Also I believe you can replace entries in RG2.

The disc does have a hex plate underneath and I've already used my re entry for LW

Thanks for the tips although I think I may keep the battery the same just so I don't have to resign the bot .

You make a good point it is a bit messy on the supports which was just me trying to reduce weights while still keeping him at a good size to fit everything in.

man when did you become so good at IRL?

I love the front wedge and the faux-pistons. Not so much of a fan of the frame armour or the tails, personally.

All of the previous 7 bots are pretty sick, But I think it'd be more fitting if the Thor-esque one was a hammer bot instead of a thwack.

And I think Disc would look better if you connected the front forks to the bot. The infinity gauntlet bot is superb, you'll have to show me how to get that tooth setup sometime.

Infinity gauntlet and the disc bot uses 2 flatmotors powering 1 disc each. The teeth at the end are 2 large beaters one which hits the opponent is connected first with the second being placed just on top with the left over space. The set up is actually really strong and can throw some bots in the air quite easily the only down side being that the beaters are pretty fragile but only against direct attacks from other spinners.

I wanted to do a hammer type bot for the Thor themed one but all I could think of was real life Thor. I'm giving it a second try this time with a blacksmith design  as well as changing iron man but I don't know what I will change him to

First up, those marvel bots are super super nice i love them.
The four here, all really nice.
Have a slight issue with the "Wedges" on Ribz think they should possibly have a small 20 degree tilt at the bottom and then the side parts coming back instead of protruding forward.
Looks like Bluge may have difficulty with smaller bots as it look the weapon reach is rather minimal and also looks like Shark attacks egg beater may be quite weak. All things that can be upgraded on later but overall these are really nice  :smile:
Becoming one of my favourite builders with all these super nice machines. Hope too see more soon :D

On the contrary, I really really like this! I think it's one of the cleanest builds I've seen in quite a while, and if you just raise the chassis a bit to deal with PIerco's "things sticking out" complaint, I think I could really fall in love with this'n.

I agree with FOTEPX, it's a lovely little drumbot. I love everything around the weapon area. My only nitpicks on what you could improve (IMO) is the front armour panels would look better being black/white to fit with the colourscheme, and the stuff poking out of the top of the 'chassis' looks kind meh. What weight is it?

776kg so a little bit of weight to play around with but Im not sure what to use it on. As for the stuff coming out the top its almost impossible to get rid of from what ive tried as its part of the motors  so The only way to fix it would be to add armour plates or something but that would make it worse honestly

First one and last one are really nice (though the first one could do with some drive motor protection).

Chassis of the fourth one is nice but the weapon setup looks really messy. Some more conventional triangular supports would look much better IMO

Not much to say about the third. Fairly generic undercutter

Whilst I really like it, it does look highly messy. like, the green wedglet looks really out of place on the front imo and the NPCs look super fragile given how they're mounted. Finally, the front wheelguards made of wedglets would look much cleaner if they were 45 degree pieces and the weight could be used to cover the NPCs better.

The side paneling is quite a nice touch, you've really pulled it off well. I personally feel that the extenders at the top of the support can be replaced with triangular plates, but I do feel that they all together would effect the self righting ability of the bot itself. The lower support I feel would give horizontal spinners something to bite onto thus punt the bot away, not allowing you to use your own weapon.

So I'd recommend taking off the shell plate from the front and using the weight to add some density to the tail srimech. Loving the overall shell of the bot, looks really organic, but it looks like it results in it being really unstable in terms of extender numbers

Yeah it is a little extender heavy. The whole front is being redone so I might get some weight for the tail.

It's rather good actually, I recommend giving it some feeder wedglets, them combined with the increase in weight would really help it out wedge stuff. Also some bits on top of the weapon support to stop the weapon hitting the floor

The hs is a bit ugly, but a very good experiment on horizontal drums. 8/10.

The vs is sleek, and looks deadly. Can’t really improve on this. 10/10

That saw looks to be the wrong way round. Also with Mr Money Bags the supports feel rather off being white, like they're nothing for it to align with in terms of colour.

Looks nice!

I would ditch the green and red extenders because they look kinda out of place.
Really like the selfrighter integrated with the lexan panel (I guess the spider thingy is the selfrighter)

Hope that the flipper is far in enough so it doesn't get hit!

After all pretty nice!

In all seriousness, I like the bot and the color scheme a lot. The flags are a nice touch as well. The wedge looks kind of far from the main chassis though, which looks a little weird. Everything else looks pretty great!
Dont worry thats been fixed as well as making it a viable wedge as well by giving it wedglets to go along with it

starlight is cool but it looks kind of odd without fake pneumatic rams on the flipper imo. also the flipper setup it self could use another extender row before the spike strips since it looks a little janky with just angle extenders

Sweet, personally I'd try making the wheelguards look more solid, maybe losing the side pieces. After all it'll be kind difficult for a bot to get round to the side with a turnspeed that high.

There will never be one perfect robot design. No matter how tough a bot may seem, every bot has a weakness.

PrIOritY for example- very damaging and hard to defeat. Weakness- lack of control. Easy to defeat in tabletop if your bot’s tuogh enough.

Try colors that stand uot. Yellow and blue for instance.
I would rather shove myself off a bridge then use blue and yellow together. Maybe blue and yellow with different colours but not those 2 together.

it's a cool bot

idk what the two dudes above are arguing about but let's pretend it never happened

That wasn’t an argument- it was a discussion.
And yes, it was a little off topic.
Back on topic... how much traction does this bot have?

Blue and yellow colors really make a bot stand out. If you hate my ideas that mch, I’ll leave. I’m not mad.

There is practically no chassis. Just an extender anchor that you build the rest of the robot from.

I agree that they are a bit long but I had to find something that was light and thin enough to look like whiskers

You think you're able to do something with that back plate? Angled edges using the triangle pieces, more consistent mounting?

I was planning on giving it more consistent mounting but I was running low on weight. I might give it another try. It looks a bit more supported when you look at the back but you are right
