Disc bot bobbing
« on: December 30, 2015, 11:52:42 AM »
I made this robot with big vertical discs(not huge though, 100cm). I tried with 2 DSL discs and the other black disc and (when they have 4 maces evenly spaced on) the first time I use them in the testing area thingy, they work fine, but the 2nd time the robot kinda hops and bobbles. Can this be fixed/prevented? Is it a glitch?

Maces are quite uneven so do tend to wobble. Or you might have AGOD, where the collision meshes mess up. Use F12 to check the meshes.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything
