Title: Firestorm Havoc Fix For DSL 2.1
Post by: WhamettNuht on May 19, 2009, 12:05:29 PM
Hi all.
I dont know if anyones done this before but you know whenever Firestorm fires his flipper, he always havocs out of controll?
I found a fix for this, and a good explenation.
Rather than give out a file or that, i'll let you do it for yourselves.
First, the reason why:
Firestorm uses The Judge's burst motor (the same as Thermidor uses), and because the burst is so powerfull, it needs to be powered down by weight in order to not havoc.
So, to fix this, heres what you have to do:
First, open up RA2 for DSL 2.1, then go to the components folder.
Find the firestormflipper.txt file, and open it up.
When opened (use notepad to veiw the file) go to the line that says mass: 10
Simply change the line from mass: 10 to mass: 30.
Save and close, then open RA2 and things should have sorted them selves out.
No need to change the components, they should change automatically.

Sorry if i've just repeated something that has already been explained, but i just thought i would share this, lol.
I hope i've done some good.

Thanks
Matt

In the next DSL chaos 2's flipper needs to be so much more powerful! The best robot in the history of robot wars that can hardly flip another robot?

just go to the .txt file of his burst motor and triple or quadruple the power.

Yes, but no doubt there are other bots who use that component.
Hmm, may be able to do something about it...
