Title: RTC's DSL Showcase
Post by: RTC on November 19, 2015, 07:26:23 PM

Hey! Have a few off days and little better to do, so I decided to use the free time to stick some stuff together in DSL.

Here's Neutralizer, an SNS inspired by Haymaker from BBEANS 4. I've shrunk the chassis to improve the armour from Haymaker's Plastic 1 to Titanium 1. I also wasn't entirely fond of the hammers, so I used DSL disc extensions coated in beater bars both as armour for the discs, and to generally increase my damage output. Possible changes include the rearranging of the beaters (although I feel the current positioning gives them the best coverage and adaptability) and possibly using weapon slaves instead of discs (smaller targets, but far more fragile).

That's pretty good for a first bot! If I could improve it, I would suggest putting the weapons on one side. I created a helpful sketch because I suck at explaining.

Where red arrows represent rotation direction and blue represents where your weapons should be concentrated. See how the non - blue edge of the disk will never hit another bot?

I don't think a disc is necessary for extender work, really. You can just use larger beaters and stuff on the beaters.
