Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on November 05, 2006, 03:16:58 PM

This is my little turtle :)
The bot is balanced to AI bots(DSL 1.2), doesn't make grate damage, easy  to beat/tap. But nothing ever gets underneath those spikes and teeth have  gripping quality, so if someone gets on them, stays panted in between!

Woow Shiishh Dude!!  :shock:  That is totally stunning. Wow. That is so unbelievable! That is totally amazingly stunning design. So cool and everything.

I wouldn't have ever figured out to do that kind of design. That must be quite good defence after all.

...But why you did a new topic for your new bot?... Why you just didn't use the old one?

Thank man :)
Cuz it's a new bot ;)

Post by: Mr. Weedy on November 06, 2006, 01:42:07 PM

Well yeah. It is a new bot but think if I would have made everytime new topic when I would have made a new bot...

It would be much better if you posted all your bots to the same folder.  :wink:

Easily one of the cooler-looking bots likely to appear in the tourney.

I like the Turtle too.  It looks sort of buggish.  Reminds me of some of Korium9's bots, with that shell on it.

DUDE! You really have original ideas. Even I don't have that kind of ideas. AND above that all your bots LOOK GREAT. My bots are just original but they don't look much. Your bots are really originals and they also look very cool.  :shock:

Keep doing them. Wow.  :shock:  :D

Upgrade...
I encountered some flip-over problems, and this is what i thought out:
These arms could get him out of any trouble! They make him flip over or jump, but theres another problem: I've wired the 'srimech' button to the wheels too, so when the bot uses it, it doesn't stop the motors and just runes forward :(
Anyone has an idea, to fix it?
Kingdom for an idea!!!

Clickbeetle:
I'll finish this one with wiring and ship it over to you, i still got one more time to change my entry ;)

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: Mr. Weedy on November 07, 2006, 11:56:55 AM

Umm... You just select the button where you wired things in a wrong way. Then click the thing which shouldn't be wired. And then... You click none in the thing's wiring box and so it isn't wired any more to that button.

Seriously  :lol: ...  :P

Post by: IngvatdM on November 07, 2006, 04:23:01 PM

really??....
Did you get the question, or are you just being a smart-ass?
The wheels should be wired, that's the hole point.
I just asked, how to fix that stupid bug :(

Intresting idea but worthless if its put up with a fullbody spinner.  Im sure there will be one or two of those in the contest.  Thats the problem with contest though.  You have no idea what you up aginst.  im still no sure on a design yea.  Im still testing out ideas.  Im starting to think about throwing a old bot that I never showed.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on November 08, 2006, 01:34:53 AM

But.... I do not care, whether i win or not :)
Competition is not about winning, and if my bot doesn't win, I'll still like it. I've made a bot, that represents me and my side on the tournament and i don't care  if it's not invincible or indestructible!
BTW, does anyone know, will the tournament be recorded? I would like to see one of my robot's games :)

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: Mr. Weedy on November 08, 2006, 02:35:49 AM

Yes the tournament will be recoreded and then posted here. If I remember right once again, there will be new battle every day. Or something like that. So you're better not to forget visit these sites every day and download the newest battle.

And about the wiring. I wasn't trying to be a smart-ass, but that is so simple problem. Just throw two analog sticks for the drive and a button for the popups in your bot. Then wire the wheels to the analog sticks and then wire the popups to the button. Shouldn't cause any errors.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on November 08, 2006, 03:11:58 AM

Do you think, I'm that dumb?
The wheels should be wired to "srimech", it's the bug in the AI code I'm talking about.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: Mr. Weedy on November 08, 2006, 08:36:30 AM

Okay. Now I see. Why you didn't say you were talking about AI at the first place? =P

Oh well. Then I don't know what to do.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on November 08, 2006, 09:04:30 AM

It's o.k., I've figured it out already!
I've extended the arms and added a little push from weapons, this way i don't have to wire the wheels.
Only one problem left... It's 1mm plastic and weighs 740kg .... :(

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: Mr. Weedy on November 08, 2006, 02:03:26 PM

Remove unneeded batteries. Change all extenders from steel to titanium or maybe even to aluminium. What else... Well not much else. Smaller your chassis.  :D  Lol, that maybe bit too hard to do. Well... Take off all the unnecessary extra stuffs on your bot though your bot's looks may suffer a bit.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on November 08, 2006, 05:42:26 PM

A constructive answer would be grate....
If you can't give one, ignore the question.

I've tested the bot against 'fullbody spinner' and it works perfectly!
Loses some part of defense, but still beats it! :)

I thought that was good answer for that. It is hard to make your bot lighter because normally downgrading armor is enough but in your case it is hard to do anything else. So I said that. That might help too.

Also chaning weapons to lighter ones will give you little more spare weight to upgrade your armor to better one.

Nice looking bots I like the way how they look out. Simple and blocky. Nice. I maybe should do something like that too.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: Clickbeetle on December 18, 2006, 12:23:26 PM

Very realistic looking designs there.  I like the wedge with spike strips on the edge, but titanium half sheets aren't the best materials for that.  They only have 1400 HP.  Nice use of the Overkill wedge though.  Deadly Wedge looks nigh invulnerable.

Title: Unique mashine!
Post by: IngvatdM on December 18, 2006, 07:21:10 PM

Thanks.
The Wedge is plastic :) so is Mini Punisher.
I just focused to make realistic robots and here they are :)
Also, in case you haven't noticed, the Wedge has its' guts for decoration ;) i made it on The Gimp, and it's my first bot that's inside-looking-out ;)
Now I'm combining the 100/150 DSL discs with those DSL bars. When it'll be ready, ill post :)

I like that last one, looks a bit like Vlad the Gladiator or Impailer.
