Title: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: Ben Purse on November 05, 2010, 03:01:10 AM
I am new to this forum and have been playing for 2 weeks and been playing DSL for 1 week. Here is my first bot, Purse Attack 1

You can remove 1 ant battery and save 1 kg by using the large control board (lighter than the small one)

What is the weapon motor ?

That would be fine for a MW, but not enough for a HW. HW shell spinners need either 6-Mags, either dual perms.

Also the drive isn't enough. For a HW, You need minimum 2WD TWMR drive + Hypno wheels or 2WD NPC Fast + wide ant wheels.
Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: NFX on November 05, 2010, 04:38:05 AM
Welcome to the forums, Ben. ;)

It's not too bad for a first bot, but Naryar's got it about right, the weapon and the drive are both lacking in power. A good starting point would be NPC motors, they're the best drive motors of the lot, but go for the TWMR3's if you're not too interested in outright speed. Hypno wheels are also an excellent choice for their relatively high grip value.

A HW Sheck Spinner does need a big powerful motor, preferably a 6-Mag or a Dual Perm as Naryar said. The weight of these motors, in turn, means that there's less weight for you to use on weaponry, which is actually quite good, because it means a faster spinup time, and more ability to throw opponents.

The one thing that's quite good, is you have only used five ants for this, which is quite in keeping with the one ant per spin motor rule that we have around here. I, personally, always try to overpower my bots slightly, so I'd probably use 4 ants in this bot. And the chassis can be made smaller, I know it's frustrating, but it's quite a good way to save weight, plus it gives your opponent less to hit.

Quite good for a first attempt, try taking people's advice on board, experiment to see what works and what doesn't, and your bots should improve fairly quickly. =D

So this guy is edgeviller pker 34 ? I think his posting style is slightly different though.

Maybe he felt he was a n00b under the EPK34 name, then decided to change with a new username (see LRA2).

Post by: Naryar on November 18, 2010, 04:43:19 AM
Cropping fail, but at least you attempted to do something :P

About the bot, it's quite bad but not the worst juggler i have ever seen :P

-Add effective weapons. 3 spinning weapons just screws up your drive
-Better wedge, notably double metal hinge wedge
-More drive, minimum is NPC Fast with Techno wheels. Jugglers need fast drive to be good
-Smaller chassis, because for now it's just a big target.
-More armor.

Go on the wiki (or other DSL showcases) and lurk. There are a few interesting juggler designs on these.
Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: NFX on November 18, 2010, 05:10:05 AM
Something else jugglers probably need is a snowplow on the back above the weapons, a bit like a rear spoiler on a Formula 1 car, so as to stop the opponent going straight up and over.
Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: Scorpion on November 18, 2010, 10:55:12 AM
Yep, something on the back seems to help a lot for jugglers.
Also, it's usualy better to stick the wheels out of the chasis, means far less wasted weight.
Use the blue control board aswell if you have the space, it saves you an extra KG.

Oh, and what is the weight and armour?

I'm pretty sure they're cheatbot2 as well. SZ's not required either, the bot'll spin its weapons anyway. Your extender work can be lightened considerably, if you just use the one extender, mount the motors off of that. That'll give you the weight for Hypnos, but I think an HS needs a bit more weaponry than you have at the moment.

It would have been 8 but then it would be unresltliec. I might Lighten the armour ( It has tit 5). and make the extenders longer.

Post by: NFX on January 02, 2011, 09:20:13 PM
How would 8 razors instead of 7 be unrealistic? They're still moving through the chassis, my entry does that.

Try and find weight for the 8th razor on the disc, and I'd say use an aluminium or Titanium Side Skirt to mount your motors on. Would save a lot of weight, and give you a wider stance, making for quicker turning and better agility.
Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on January 03, 2011, 03:20:40 PM
use shiny hubs and put an extender under the disc to keep it from touching the ground.

Also you have no need for a smart zone.

Both of the hammers and the katanas.

Use something better, such as razors, sledges, light DS teeth or beater bars. And be sure to minimize the weight spent in extender work, without giving the bot a clear weak point.

You can push your drive closer into the chassis. Just use two multi-extenders facing out on both sides and attach your drive there. It decreases the chances of you getting flanked.

Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: 123savethewhales on August 10, 2011, 03:47:25 AM
Hammers are fine,  You just needed more.  So for example you can shrink the chassis a lot just by sticking the motor out from the back, which will also make the wheels symmetrical.  You can probably get away with a single wedge in the middle, but you definitely need more weapons.
Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase

For some reason when using the NPCFL the motor won`t stick out from the back. The Right works fine though.

Title: Re: Purse`s DSL Showcase
Post by: Urjak on August 19, 2011, 11:44:15 AM
Alright, I'm actually going to give at least some advice on this. First off, attach your razors to the three attachment points on the disk that are pointing the most outward. Then, I would highly recommend getting some more drive (maybe two E-techs at least). The E-techs should be able to mount directly to a multi (no need for the extra exposed poly extender. Also, you can downgrade your disks down to armored disks (popup will kill you either way) which will give you some more weight for that extra drive.

Start with those improvements and we will go from there.

I would agree with what Urjak said, and I would also attempt to have your poly extenders as an equal angle from each other. They look quite skewed to me at the moment.

Only 2 ants are required for this. 3 would give you prolonged power, but 2 is the bare minimum. I'd also try to mount the piston inside the chassis, personally, and try to find a more efficient way of attaching the weaponry. You're using more weight on weapon attachment than on the actual weapons. I might get rid of the wedges, personally, you're not going to be able to get under your opponents much with this design, they're just eating up weight.

1) It's a heavyweight.
2) The weapons go straight through the motor.
 
First of all, sort out the weaponry so it doesn't go through the motor. Then get the halfsheet aligned so it protects the chassis evenly. I'd get rid of the poly extenders holding the sheets, that would eliminate the weak link in the stabilisers.

I'd personally swap the beater bars on the end for razors as well. If you go for 2 ME's over the hexplate assembly you have at the moment, perhaps downgrade the armour just a tad, you might get enough weight for a couple more razors on there.

Post by: NFX on May 18, 2012, 08:23:08 PM
Interesting design. It could do reasonably well, provided the poly extenders aren't gotten to, they look quite fragile to me. Also, you should try and correctly angle the ME's, so that all the hammers are at the same angle. If you have one ME in the default position, you want the others to be 12 turns right and 12 turns left. Components don't turn smoothly, they "jump" in increments of ten degrees. So you want all three to be 120 degrees from each other to be in balance.

tbh If I was you I would lower the chassis height as much as I could via BFE so the spinning bar would have a better chance hitting/you can get better chassis armour since plastic 1 is a death sentence. You could use smaller wheels then which would let you line up the wheelguards better then.
