err.. its attached to the baseplate?

Half sheets can only attach to chassis's over 0.41 high.

Try it for yourself, Joe. Make the chassis as low as you possibly can by using the drag up to the top, click at the bottom technique, then try attaching a halfsheet to the baseplate. It says "Baseplate components must fit inside the chassis". Bit of a pain, I guess, but not an enormous inconvenience, I find.

I don't think the plow is necessary if it's just placed like that.

NFX · « **Reply #765 on:** January 22, 2011, 09:41:29 AM »

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.

It is like having a VS weapon pass through your chassis. That would also be cheating because it give you more HP than you actually deserve. I don't see how it is cheating in the least.

I don't want to spam Vertigo's showcase, so I will leave it there.

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.

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.

If I can BFE chassis height down and still have the half sheet, 90% of my bot will not exceed 3 battery height. The whole 0.41 limitation is the reason why some of my bots doesn't have half sheet.

I don't want to spam too much so I just add to this post.

That using the extra low chassis glitch?

Yes

Agree with this.

I still can't tell what this has to do with my bot. I am not breaking any rules of realism.

Anyways, THIS will be my last post on the subject. I feel bad for spamming Vertigo's showcase.

I would say shrink the chassis and get some top armor.
