Yup. It looks bad. So bad that I was about to delete without ever testing it. Gone forever.






But I didn't.





And then I tested it.







And it did this:


Beating ElectroStatic isn't the achievement, removing the plow is.
And then I tested it some more.
This thing is beast.
Its stable, the flails are protected, durable weapons, and very fast spin.

[Urjak]

Seems like it could be de-weaponed by something with high-DP weapons, though it seems to preform well. Good bot.

[MassimoV]

Looks really good. It reminds me of Shoop or Whoop (I can't tell the difference off the top of my head). I don't know if it won't be invertable but I would use different wheels. What are the Steel extenders on the end of the flail and the static wedges for? Otherwise I really like it.

[Somebody]

Technos: Too short
Overkill Wheels are to tall. WBC wheels are almost to takk to be stable, but the poly sheets give it stability.

Those extenders protect the weapon extenders from weapons and walls. I first hit the problem with Satanic Syclone 2, and copied the idea from Interceptor (BBEANS 3). Harcsa used them to protect the ends of extenders, which are vulnerable to hitting walls (when spinning), or getting hit by other weapons. They work great.

[Doomkiller]

Let me guess, your gona send that to me for next season? For Revenge?

[Somebody]

Maybe. I will be sending you a lot of bots...

[Doomkiller]

Sweet, now, to get the next vids filmed and up

[Somebody]

Shovelnose 4
799.9
16 ants
2 BSGs
Titanium 1
6WD NPC Fasts with hypnos
3 Titanium sheets for armor
Can't self-right easily (kinda like FNF, can self right sometimes, but usually needs a bit of help. Old Shovelnose was same way)

[G.K.]

2 BSG's? Seriously?

[Pwnator]

Just ditch a sheet for more chassis armor.


And 2 BSGs? o_o

[Naryar]

6WD NPC Fast ?

[Somebody]

Yup. I think I'm going to rebuild the chassis to get room for another BSG, ditch a sheet, but I really don't feel comfortable losing armor or a wheel. IIRC, the old had 2 Mag Snappers.

[Naryar]

Yes.

And 6WD is unneeded anyways. 123 demonstrated that 2WD NPCF/Technos is enough already...

[Somebody]

Even though on box rush hits it can hit 3000-4000+ in a single hit, and it makes it rather unique, while not losing many of the weapons of the original?

[Naryar]

HnM 6 can hit 6000 :P

Yes it's original, and it's your choice in the end, but here i am talking about POPUP DESIGN EFFICIENCY.

You can make it 4WD Techno, slightly faster AND lighter for less power comsuption, or just 2WD Hypno/2WD Techno.

[Somebody]

2WD isn't fast enough IMO. If anything I would downgrade back to 4 with hypnos, and then add another BSG.

[Naryar]

2WD isn't fast enough IMO.

2WD NPC Fast and Technos is enough -

https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,2349.msg202735.html#msg202735

And in last post I was mentioning 4WD, just with 2 Hypnos and 2 Technos. Like Smashbox.

[Somebody]

But that wheel setup is uuuuggly. I'm going to try to keep the 6wd if I can. If I'm going to make something generic, by god I'm going to put my own spin on it.

[Naryar]

What kind of fool would put 6WD on a non-fail DSL HW popup ?
