Ecolusian's Ironforge Showcase

I feel like you've not got nearly enough weaponry and you'll have trouble self-righting. I'd downgrade the drive to either RC motors or just go 2 wheeled (will save more weight), maybe downgrade some armour and use any weight left over to stick a weapon rack on and/or curve the hammer.

IM BACK!!! (sadly)

this is my newest bot Oak who weighs 234kg and i am aware he is painfully underweight but i dont know how to save weight so some advice would be good

(look red a bot theme =) trees... im boring)

And, in the style of Oak. I shall say:

"these pictures are not very good"

I mean, surely it makes more sense to have the hammer hit with the shorter side, but that's probably just an aesthetic thing. By the way, I don't have a bot theme, I have an ACCOUNT theme. Get on my level

red what the you talkin bout

and i agree with craig

Look at the post I'm quoting, and all will be revealed...

Red, WTF you on about? Anyways, I think Oak could use a shorter hammer and that may free up some extra weight for a better wep or two using an array, but i dont quite know.

I don't see why everyone is confused, its really not that difficult to understand.

[ecolusian]

first off, my hammers are like that because they can only damage at the point, why would you use em sideways anyways =p

heres the upgrade to my bot, hes now 198.5 kg

[ecolusian]

guys, there's a bot here for feedback, opinions please?

[cephalopod]

Sorry for not feeding back earlier.

That's still a tiny amount of weaponry for a middleweight. I would recommend shrinking the chassis right down to save some weight and then downgrading the plow to Dark rather than Heater. You could probably get away with a T shaped chassis and sticking the plow on the bottom of the T.
What armour are you using, also?

[Naryar]

thats a big chassis for what you have inside. also i am still unsure about wheelguards on a hammer. tbh i'm pretty sure you could put a smaller burst on there, more weapons, a better chassis. try to make it so it can self right with the burst.

...oh wait it's a rebuild of a former bot, well, remake the chassis.

also red please do not try to appear cool/edgy ESPECIALLY when you are new, it doesn't work on this forum (or on any internet community). we've had people (see: Kurt Wylde) trying to appear edgy on those forums, it does not work and people react poorly to those.

if you are cool people will react well to you. apparently you have earned a poor reputation there, i'm not sure of the details but stop now before you dig your own grave here.

improved weapons and paintjob with titanium 10 armour and weighs 336kg with its 3 ballasts taken into account

[Badger]

The paint is beautiful.

You could probably free up some weight on the weapon extender work. You could get rid of all the angle connectors by attaching the top extenders to the main pole and rotating them 45 degrees.

brb practising ai'ing using other.py

Not sure about just a single car steering unit.

[ecolusian]

so replace the drive?

[Conraaa]

If it can actually turn then go for it. If it can only go forward and a bit diagonal while broadly staying facing the same direction I might have bit more of a problem.

Dude, this is your ironforge showcase.  Stock bots don't belong here.

Other than that, it seems n00by enough to be accepted.
