Pysco Sweeper's Revenge is insane.  One obvious thing you can do is replace those two titanium half sheets in the front with one full sheet.  The full sheet has a lot more HP than two half sheets, and it's bigger to boot.

The flipper's been done before, but it's done well.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

Oh yeah.

Clickbeetle: Many night have been taken up trying to find a way to attack a full sheet sucessfully. The issue is that when a full sheet is attached, it is too low to the ground, and I have been unsucessful in attaching it another way.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Use a skirt hinge to attach the titanium sheet, find the best attachment point for that. Perhaps the AP in the center of the sheet could be suited.

I tried that, and it was too springy. It preforms a lot better if it is solidly attached.

Hello, here is my newest, and first DSL Popup.

The Devil's Lime:







The Devil's Lime is a popup with six iron spikes powered by two black snappers. (No idea what they are called.) His drive is two fast NPCs with Hypno wheels. He has 1 mm TITANIUM armor. (Hope this pleases you Naryar, :D)

Any comments would be appreciated. :D

That thing could be as good as Hazardous Contraption. Same armor, same drive, same ground clearance, wedges look good, and it's possibly more powerful weapon wise.

That said, HazCon have no crappy anglers and all that empty space behind !:icon_twisted:

And if I were you I would get these snappers closer to the front, because your popup is going to be more efficient.

PS: these are Mag Snappers.

Like DOAM, Mako or Anchimandrite V, perhaps?

That said, dual wedges > axle wedges

Mako's wedges are very effective, almost nothing can get under them. Why are they bad?

I don't say they're bad... I say that dual wedges made from skirt hinges and low ground clearance (Hazardous Contraption) are better !!!

You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Your right, so no other wedge kind (besides Smashbox 2) that I have seen can get under an axle wedge consistantly.

This because I didn't spend as much time on InfCon's wedges than Hazcon's. I said it before that InfCon wouldn't be as good as his little brother.
