Title: Silverfish's DSL Showcase
Post by: Silverfish on November 19, 2015, 11:06:00 AM
Well, it's high time I made this showcase. I never got DSL, so don't expect this to be on the level of my stock showcase. Let's begin!
my entry for Ironbot Jr., Gear Grinder(i'm really proud of the weapons system)

yeah, the crop is bad, this will be fixed soon.

you need to protect your chassis more. also maybe use a piglet, it has much more hitpoints and i'm pretty sure it is better than a slimbody for damage.

maybe make the weapons stick out more...

chassis can be made smaller, use big air tanks instead of several small air tanks and it is criminally underpowered. Also just use a single heavy weapon on that poker...

doubt you can make a decent poker/hammer hybrid at LW level anyways. you need heavy bursts, air tanks, quite a bit of batteries AND drive, armor, chassis and weapon weight on top of that.

if you want to make a poker/hammer who will not be crippled by the weight constraints try the MW/HW/SHW weightclasses.

it kinda reminds me of the original Acornia

you seriously want to shrink the chassis and focus on one weapon system. You don't have enough weight in LW to do both.

Holy shish-kabots, you actually remember that thing!?

Word to the wise on the LW Poker - use Slimbodies, a smaller chassis, and an external piston to limit havoking. Also, use only 1 large air tank, rather than two small ones - you get more gas out of it that way. Get rid of the hammer, too - focus on a nice meaty weapon rack for the piston.

This thing was built for my challenge vs. Badger, which is my explanation for building DSL.

there's no real difference between stock, dsl and ironforge building.

apart that in stock unrealistic is a thing, and that the components have different values and hence different worth.

You don't say.

Anyway, I'm told that we're trying to put at least some of our work on the forums now, so I figured I'd throw any new bots I make here. As such, Blueshift.png.
