and you can take away one ant battery from this.
And Get NAR AI, you look like a good enough builder for it.

I've not had any ssuggestions for naming the middle weight, (to show how bad I am at naming it is currently called Scraper v6.0) ::badidea
I know that on MW's & below that BSG's are better but don't HW's need that bit of extra power?
Ounce, I don't understand how my extender work can be lighter but if you'd like to explain that a bit further it would be great. :PSo something like this:
I know that on MW's & below that BSG's are better but don't HW's need that bit of extra power?
Mag Snappers lock up after 2 minutes.

Rotation 2 (Once again, if you have any better name suggestions then feel free to post them ;D)
NPCFs with Technos is crazy drive on a VS especially if it has axle wedges. :O
That's not even titanium...What do you mean?
Gyrophobia 4 -
Same armour (titanium 3), same drive same weapon apart from the fact that they are perm 80 longs not short
Pros -
More stable
More powerful & can destroy other robots quicker (dunno why)
One more ant batt :bigsmile:
Iron tips which cause some damage.
Cons -
Exposed weapon motor :mad:
What do you think?
What are you talking about FOTPEX?
Vertigo, does the hammer go through the chassis?
I'm sorry, but I don't like it ATM. I think the DSL bar should be longer, and the stabelizers at the front should not be in the way of the weapon, because what will happen is the robot will hit the spikes, not the hammers.If the DSL bar was longer it would be unrealistic, the robots always hit the hammers first, not the spikes, as when spinning, the weapon is much further forward than the stabilisers.

It's not bad but i would use longer and heavier weapons (like Robot X sais) rather than irons and extenders.
I also have a spare 16kg!
Whats wrong with sawblades?!I also have a spare 16kg!
Use that for something other than sawblades. Maybe 100cm disc, maybe hex plate, maybe something else.
And 2 BSG's ain't gonna give you much. You could just use 4WD NPCFs and use 4 BSGs.
And 2 BSG's ain't gonna give you much. Yuo could just use 4WD NPCFs and use 4 BSGs.4 bsg's give me enough power & 6 slimbodies with hypnos is easily fast enough.
How many ants? This needs 10-12.
That looks spectacular.
^That's what I thought as well.^It tends to be spectacular in 2 ways:
You are reaching the level of the original Vertigo.Is that good or bad? I'm guessing good! :P
Sacrifice some rear armor so you can get metal hinge wedges in there (hopefully they won't AGOD). To get rid of the flippy thing, and some stabilizers to the front (take a look at Undeadbeat in NAR AI, though that may be a poor example since it doesn't have a rear stabilizer as well XD).OK, I'll try that.
I'm liking this showcase...Thanks!
Maybe swap the DSL bar stabilisers for poly extenders stabilisersNot really because once the stabilisers are gone, the robot is practically useless.
Robots atack the front not the backYes, but when I swing the hammer backwards it would tip over backwards.
I would use Tite sheets for that.I'll try that on my next version.
You might want to flip your plows over so it does better at trapping.I'll try that but then it would be easier for other bots to get underneath it.
That's an awesome bot, the only thing I would worry about is poor hammer acceleration with all that weight on the arm.It isn't really, but with 2 70kg hammers, as long as it hits the other bot with a reasonable swing then it doesn't really matter.
It's a Beta geared, hence a spin motor, hence the bot only really needs 5 ants. I'll change battery setup then.
Also you might want to increase hammer range. What do you mean by that?
Hate SNS! So boring!
First would be better with less armor, large JXs and maybe weapons.This robot isn't designed to do damage, & the flippers are powerful enough already. If I used large JX's, I would need more ants & a higher chasis, resulting in less chasis armour, & bad drive.
GENERIC NAMES ARE GENERIC LOLWhiplash had about 15kg left over & it couldn't quite reach titanium 3, I couldn't find any other way to use the weight, I would gladly remove it if I needed the weight.
Anyway, do what Nary said and you wouldn't need the Lightning spike on Whiplash. If you want a weapon, you should find a way that when a bot rides up the wedge, the static weapons hit it as well.
Really? It barely beat 360 arc pounderHate SNS! So boring!
It wasn't even that bad of an SnS either.
Very destructive, haven't come across a LW that it can't beat yet!
I haven't got NAR AI...
I meant that it beats all the DSL AI
I haven't got NAR AI...
I meant that it beats all the DSL AI
Oh. That makes more sense. Still though, beating all DSL AI LW is pretty good. :claping
I think that you are at least ready for NAR AI v.1
And don't worry about the components, just copy over your components folder from your old game and everything works fine, besides the fact that a few bots don't work. Nary should really release a copy with only DSL parts...
Very, very, very nice!
Except for the 3mm alu (3mm plastic is better), I have a bot similar to that but with a longer weapon reach. :D
Well well well...
Vertigo, you are the same skill level as me. Can you do popups? If so, you're better.
Well done sir.
I think he is better already, seeing how new he is here...
He's better than you, notably by not spammingAny critism at all?
What you do to get the chassis as low as possible:I already knew that, but when I do that, I can't attatch NPCs.
Drag the slider up as HIGH as it will go. Then, click the lowest pixel on the slider, it will go lower than what you have.
*expects FOTEPX to name the bot lolz*
*expects FOTEPX to name the bot lolz*I'll try that
Vlad spikes have normals, so that might hinder the design. Try a version with Robot X Sais and see if it does better. :D
Tried harpoons & they were even worse. Its pretty much up to the weights limit*expects FOTEPX to name the bot lolz*
That's not gonna happen, but I will say that it is lol for you to expect me to call the bot lol. I think it's fine, but could do with some different spikes, maybe Harpoons. also, what's the weight of this thing?
use a longer perm belt ?Then the hammers would be too far from the ground
Yeah, the wedges are probably too wide.Yes they are npc fasts, it was hard to fit a good wedge setup into the design, thats the best I could do
Plus axle wedges doesn't work well at high speeds. Are these NPC Fasts ?
it doesn't deal full damage because the way razors are unevenly turned. So only some of them make contact at a time.OK, thanks, I'll change that then
Drive is fail :PYes, butits quite hard to make 4WD on a VS effective
Make 4WD NPC fast with large ant wheelsOK, will try that, I need to rebuild it anyway
When in doubt, use NPC Fasts.Just tried a rebuild, but I haven't really got the weight for npc fasts
And INSIDE the bot please...
You really like that skin. :P I know, most of my bots are painted like that, & the great thing about it is that I don't even have to bother with skinning outside the botlab!
I would use DSL Discs to give it the feel of the original. Now I have done
Use 2 NPC fasts for drive instead of 4 slimbodys.I would like to, but one of the key characteristics of the original bot was that it was 4WD, & therefore my bot should have 4WD too
It doesn't have to be 4wd if you don't want it to. Looks perfectly acceptable though.I may try & rebuild it then. When is the deadline for entries?
Wedges are quite messyWhat wedge setup would you recommend?
A simpler one, not a triple thing.What would a simpler setup be?
uuuuuuuuunnnnnndddddeeeeerrrrrwwwweeeiiiigggghhhhhtttttt
That's a BW, right? If it's a LW then it'sThey are 60kg hammers, so it is not underweight...uuuuuuuuunnnnnndddddeeeeerrrrrwwwweeeiiiigggghhhhhtttttt
oh, sorry. I thought they were 30kg ones. It's underweight anyway, because Ounce had a rammer with 60kg hammers and NPC drive (I think)50 kg Hammers.
6 kgs will not get you steel skirts. You would need more like 20.
What you CAN do is use a bigger air tank for the flamethrower. Won't have any effect when you're driving it but will help if you AI it, since the AI can't simply hold down the trigger to keep it going full power.
Now that bot would present some interesting AI possibilities. You could make it not fire the popup spikes until the opponent's health is drained from the flamethrower, or until you run out of air, to make it easier to score 1 hit KO's.
Won't work well. You might as want use FlameOmni.py.Yeah, if I knew how to AI :P
Titanium 3, 399.?kg,

Titanium 3, 399.?kg,
Best HW I've ever made, beats mako, smashbox 2, shebeast repetatively
Do you not mean 799.?kg?:P YES
How many razors and ants? 16 ants, 8 razors
Looks darn good though. Great space management. That front wedge is darn awesome, but isn't it a little heavy? perhaps replace it for more weapons? (though, tbh, that front weight will probably give the bot awesome wedges:P) It does :D
Spoiler For Marty:
Destroyed all of team fez :D
But test Bulldozer 2 against CA2.2 and see what happens :P
Not sure on the AI question, but I am sure that it needs more weapons.So several small beater bars are better than a few large?
SLEDGERAMMERlol, I'll use that for its name :P
Mabye, but I'd wouldn't have any way to use the gained weight
Teams?
Try it against a wedge-killer (e.g. Second Sunrise, Iron Tumbleweed VI, Seismic Toss) and you'll be beaten. :PIron Tumbleweed got destroyed :D
It isn't.Its better than Enigma X, better wedge, JXs are protected, more stable
Might be slightly underpowered, though it looks brilliant.It either needs 10 or 12 ants, it may need another 2,but it doesn't seem like it needs them
It is realistic, it doesn't cut through all of the wedge
Underweaponed IMO

That is good bot, but there is a realism issue with the flippers and the DSL bar, you are going to either have to cut the flippers off so that the bar can stay or cut most of the bar off so that the flippers can stay.Good point, I didn't notice that. I'll change it toa 40cm length DSL bar

Awesome BW Bulldozer. ;):D thanks, I was thinking that I could enter it in micro mayhem, but its a closed arena, what do you guys think?
Dunno. Closed arena might not be all that good for you, you'd more than likely get outscored.Yeah, I'd be banking on non-invertible opponents :P
Nar AI? Pleeeeease? :PWhat I was thinking, if Naryar accepts them for his precious mod ;)
That ant is going to be as good as my Intruder :PBetter :D

Micro Bulldozer 2.2:The flippers will get knocked off before the BSG's most likely so move the DSL bar to protect the chassis or upgrade the drive.

1- Slap blades are horrible weapons.
2- Slims with hypnos if you dont expose the TWM3R's.
Change to 3mm plastic; it's more efficient than 3mm aluminum. With the weight gained, get stronger flipping arms, add more external armor, or a longer wedge, whichever possible.OK then ;P
These are amazing! You diffidently are taking to flippers. Though I am skeptical about the ant. Also, what are the extenders doing on Nano Bulldozer?1) Thanks
Now make a UHW Flipper :DI've never made an UHW before, to much IMO
Welcome to the horrors of AGOD ! Welcome? This has been pestering me ever since I joined GTM :(
Rebuild the whole wedge. Done that, twice
This happens all the freakin' time. There's no real way around it. I rebuild it, then leave the bot lab immediately.Tried, didn't work unfortunately
Make a BSG wedge then. No AGOD guaranteed.Not enough weight, are bsg wedges as good as hinged wedges
Not enough weight, are bsg wedges as good as hinged wedges
Press the Pause|Break button in the botlab, go to the test arena and return, then press Pause|Break again.Didn't work
No more AGOD!
Such a heavy wedge... But that makes it a good wedge
And does it even needs Ti 5 ? Yes, there is no botton armour It doesn't looks invertible either. How many jugglers are?
Such a heavy wedge... But that makes it a good wedge Eh. Heavy wedge doesn't necessarily means good wedge. Look at Hydrosphere.
And does it even needs Ti 5 ? Yes, there is no botton armour It doesn't needs Ti 5 with a good wedge It doesn't looks invertible either. How many jugglers are? Two of mine, and the MW (Crown of Thorns) who won a tournament, AND Tunneler who went runner-up on CC3. And it's more of an angled spinner that a juggler really.
It goes under HnM 4 easily, which whole wedge system must be 3 times heavierYou were saying that about crown of teeth, & you were saying that my wedges weren't effective
Oh and better. FAT RAT.
Lol I like how you use the same logos for your team.Well a lot of the time I don't know who made what in NAR AI, so I think its better to have a team logo with 'VERTIGO' written right across it :D
Well, True Inertia is weirdWhy, its cool, & its got good wedges too :D
No Mercy & Second Thought really have low reachIt doesn't stop them being effective though
and the ant's not going to be much of a threatneither is intruder ;P

MegaStone: Those Irons don't look too useful there. ^Above^
MicroStone: How havoky is it? Not at all, its the AW thats havoky
LWMegaStone: Those Irons don't look too useful there.
That's what I was thinking.
Is MicroStone a MW or a LW?
MW Weight Class?Yes
8 razors and less chassis armor maybe.Has enough weapons
16 ants is probably more than you need, and these med plows are in the way.It wasn't originally made with the plows, I just added them on to see the effect that they would have.
I'm with Nar on the plows, but I think it looks great. Is it a pop-up or a flipper?popup
It looked like a flipper to me :OWouldn't be a very good flipper with only two large JXs :P
Always liked the look of enigma, but I don't think it was made very well
No its not.Does this help?
I'm confused about the arm and the entire front wedge!
I was trying out photoshop for the first time :PDid you find the Posterise button? =P
Weapons touching the ground aren't good.
surely its OK as long as they don't have normals.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/54027Sentinel EVO.jpg)Remember this?
NAR AI second sentinel is too easy, so I made my own :D
Trouble with that is ground clearance but maybe if he had bigger wheels.Big wheels on an SnS this size would be bad, it'd be very wobbly when it was spinning, and easier to get a wedge underneath it and put it off balance. I think there's not much in the way of improvements that can be done, spare maybe weapon placement.

Nice. I've always wanted a better Scout. If you could improve the wedge, I would, but it looks like there is a weight stuation.Bottom skirts won't really get hit by anything, plus it gets under mostother bots anyway

Inspired by all that shell spinner talk ehYeah, I wanted to see how much better I could do than you guys :P
I can't selfrightYou can't selfright?
Bottom protection and non-havokiness are very important to a shell spinner's well being. However, it looks pretty good.Halfsheets on a LW? Surely not, and there isn't another practical way to protect the bottom really
Halfsheets on a LW? Surely not
Link pleaseHalfsheets on a LW? Surely not
Heheheh... I got a 10 razor LW FSS with a Halfsheet for protection.
Link please
It can't move straight,Melty-Brain AI
and its rather unbalanced
Vertical flails are fine for me, isn't Urjak's one unrealistic anyway?Thats what I thought...
That looks fantastic. Is there any way to angle the plow upwards a bit more?Yes, I could use a flipper segment, *scurries off to botlab*
But then the half-sheet wouldn't have been attachable, so it is cheating.
Errrr 123, don't you lower the high of the chassis sometimes through BFE...?Not below the legal value of 0.338182, except for replica war 2 which explicitly allowed it.
That using the extra low chassis glitch?Yes
Well, because it's impossible in the Botlab to put a half sheet on a chassis lower than 0.41, that's why it's cheating.
Surely we are not going to allow BFE things impossible in the bot lab right? The room for exploitation is just too great.
I would say shrink the chassis and get some top armor.
Looks cool.Yays complements! :P
Dictator II already did that.
An effective flipper is a flipper than can fling its opponent before it has a chance to ready itself.
Yeah, but I'd have the rookies consisting of 1 LW, 4 MW, and one HW
So I made CRUSH a LW, and atom smasher a HW to even it out
And it does look vaguely similar...
*facepalm*
Yeah, stingray is still a LWYeah, but I'd have the rookies consisting of 1 LW, 4 MW, and one HW

Weaponed flippers > Flippers with no weapons.Couldn't be more true
Flippers don't need well guarded sides, it's flip out head on or dead.I know that, they just make it look cool :P
4 small are plenty, 4 large are better, but 4 small are still plentyOr you could just use BSGs :P
4 small have worked OK for this so far, and its still more powerful than it needs to be :D
Oh, and the JX guards are on the flippers, and its those that make it more effective than most other flippers
I'll be surprised if you come up with a flipper variation that I haven't built for SkAI High :P4 small are plenty, 4 large are better, but 4 small are still plentyOr you could just use BSGs :P
4 small have worked OK for this so far, and its still more powerful than it needs to be :D
Oh, and the JX guards are on the flippers, and its those that make it more effective than most other flippers
I made a Beta Rear hinged/ 2 BSG front hinged flipper once.Well I ain't done that one XD
I like experimenting with the angles of flippers and their placement. 4 BSGs with their flipper blades meeting at one point can nearly be as powerful as a 4 SJXs. Give it a try, it may save you a tonne of weight.
I'd downgrade to aluminium side stabilizers if I were you (or maybe even just two angled shell panels, although they might be a bit too weak)Its about 2.5x1.75
The chassis looks quite large, is that just the angle of the screenshot?
Fair enough then, maybe it's the stripes you put on it, making it look bigger ;PI'd downgrade to aluminium side stabilizers if I were you (or maybe even just two angled shell panels, although they might be a bit too weak)Its about 2.5x1.75

What's eating up the weight? Tite 10? o_OSteel 10, actually :P
