double post! i almost forgo it... HOW THW HELL DO YOU FIX AGOD????????

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #44 on:** February 02, 2012, 09:43:48 PM »

There isn't really a known way to fix it, just ways to supposedly prevent it.

Anyway, that bot looks great to me... I honestly wouldn't change a thing.

You ever see Ramjet? Anyways, use the larger cb, only need 2 ant batteries, and attatch the extender to a multi-extender. You can also make the chassis less wide.

yahutzee · « **Reply #46 on:** February 03, 2012, 09:34:26 AM »

and here it is, YO DAWG v3.5!

npc fast drive, it has only one problem, it leans to the right, how do i fix that?

check if it's all symmetrical

not sure if you actually need the plow though, maybe better stabilizers or more armour. if you find that the motors start smoking quickly then have the bit sticking out the chassis facing the hammer.

Unfunny abuse of a meme. the YO DAWG is funny when you chain it once, maybe twice, not four times.

The bot is not half bad though.

MassimoV · « **Reply #49 on:** February 03, 2012, 05:31:55 PM »

Use 2-3 ant batteries!

Naryar · « **Reply #50 on:** February 03, 2012, 06:15:26 PM »

4 ants is actually OK if you want full battery power. More is overkill though.

I haven´t posted anything in the last weeks, but i have been doing several bots (i will post em later) but here i have a lw popup that needs a better wedge:

i have tried putting metal hinges and aluminium skirts, small wedges,vlad wedges, burst motor and plastic skirts, but none of the worked, so i am uploading the bot to the bot exchange so if anybody can fix it please tell me how.

behold.. the awful wedge-bot!

Looks too slow. Use TMWs.

i actually wanted to use tmws, but they were too heavy and it just allowed 1 burst motor and something like 2 or 3 razors, i personally think that the hypno wheels make it fast enought to be a lighweight.

Vlad wedges are about as good at getting under stuff as an office chair. Sadly, there is no hard and fast way of making a good wedge. If you remove one burst motor, swap the Astros for TWMR3's, then turn this into a true popup, i.e. having the weapons pointing upwards, starting between the Metal and Skirt hinges, that would shift the center of gravity forwards, and possibly improve your wedges. Either that, or you might have to get the edge of the skirt hinge wedges to the same level as the metal hinge one. If you raise the End Of Arc, or whatever it's called of the skirt hinge, that allows it to lift up past the metal hinge in case you've overshot.

And also get a generic Death of Angels clone!

Oh wait DoA has two wedges... close enough.

Have you tried pressing F12 to check for AGOD? (messed up collision mesh)

yahutzee · « **Reply #56 on:** February 19, 2012, 09:00:21 AM »

@clickbeetle: it is not AGOD, that terrible disease killed one of my best VS, i just had to erase it

but anyway, i trashed the bot i uploaded, instead i made this one:

it was going to be called the killer bee (it had back armor that looked like wings but it was too heavy) so any name ideas?

it can get under scout like 80% of the tike but if not, it self rights easily and i can try again

Pointless. You have just enough battery power to make a BSG LW popup work, and yet you use a JX burst motor that drains the equivalent of 2 bsg's ?

For your information your bot is far too underpowered to justify the weight and power of a JX.

You would need 3 more ant batts to make this work and you don't have the weight. Plus both JX's are large, and therefore makes for a taller popup, and tall popup = bad idea.

May be original, but originality in DSL LW popups is... at best limited, as far as my experience goes. Though I would gladly see someone prove me wrong.

Also steel 1 is just plain bad.

i will change the jx, it was just an idea i wanted to try,also it may sound weird, but this one has the steepest wedge but it is the best lightweight wedge i made so far, steel 1 it is just because i had some free weight, but it wasnt enough to put a batt.

and in a completely unrelated topic, i just downloaded nar ai yesterday, those bot are EVIL, they will haunt me forever...

yahutzee · « **Reply #59 on:** February 19, 2012, 02:09:20 PM »

DOUBLE POST!

now, behold... 4IS THE NUMBER!
