With a blackbird, does your lightweight spaz out like my lightweights do? The motors just seem to be too fast for them. I have to settle with the lowest speed to get it controlled.

define 'spaz out'. it isnt as fast as ihbey 1, around as fast as ihbey 2 / background music, can do a decent amout of damage but flips itself over when the right way up. xP

Most of my LWs spaz out too (meaning, trigger a Havok explosion when they move).  However, some work just fine for whatever reason.  Ihbey must be one of those special few.

techincally this is irl because even i could make something similar (but a different weightclass), its slow, heavily armoured and cant win fights because of the way ra2 works.

add some stabilizers and maybe extra armor, OR make a larger chassis so it is both tougher and the chassis acts as stabilizers.

Post by: cephalopod on October 04, 2014, 04:17:04 AM
You could probably add some armour above/below/behind the chassis if the wheels allow/if you switched to larger wheels.

Post by: Natster-104 on October 04, 2014, 04:32:14 AM
Also, die hard batteries weigh 10kg for 20 amps and duracells weigh 2.5 for 10 amps, so use them instead them downgrade the armour and add protection

and i believe you could make it work with 1 large battery and 1 med battery.

everything else you can see
Title: Re: playzooki's ironforge showcase
Post by: cephalopod on July 03, 2015, 03:47:08 AM
Reach looks a little dodgy. How fast does it spin on those motors? I imagine the weight slows them down a fair amount, but I could be wrong. Also you could totally shrink dat chassis :P good to see people doing something different though.
Title: Re: playzooki's ironforge showcase
Post by: playzooki on July 03, 2015, 03:10:21 PM
The reach is small so the ramming rack is actually useful. The motors spin ok, its 90kg of weapon weight on each motor, which is what you would get on a hp ztek in stock. I probably should shrink the chassis as well. imo ironforge unrealistic is like a less annoying version of stock.

Yeah but building unrealistic in DSL or IF is like supa hot easy mode compared to stock. It's not even using any creative stock techniques.

Tfw Theredblur can build a better robot than you.

In all seriousness, this robot needs something more stable than just massive extenders that would break off in minutes against anything decent. Perhaps something like attaching snow plows would look (and work) better?

tfw theredblur thinks hes cool because playzooki built a bad robot after not playing the game for months

the main problem is the spinners weapons fall off far too easy, they fall off earlier than the extenders.

Come on man, this sort of provocative comment is why you got into trouble the other day.

Also AS this is Ironforge, so it's a LW :P

How many blades? 3 I'm guessing? Maybe it's worth finding a different stabilizer component. I'd also probably suggest angling your BA's so you don't have to waste weight on the angle extenders.

I say "perhaps" or "I think" because they are suggestions that, in my mind, could work. Its not like I'm some sort of RA2 genius or anything. I am giving suggestions based on my understanding of the game, if they are bad, then they are bad, don't use 'em.

Or you could leave the advice for people who have played Ironforge longer than a month and work on your own skills so you can give decent advice one day.

Could you possibly slot a skirt just under the weapon to keep it off the ground and scrap the stabilizer setup or does it tip that bad?

Maybe if I did some stuff with extenders but I cant move the baseplate anchors because the battery would not fit.

Please wait until either:

1. You get tournament results

2. You are a highly respected member

...before you trash talk other members.

Post by: cephalopod on October 26, 2015, 03:25:55 PM
I wouldn't, that's 1/10 of your weight. If you have to, build a little frame of light extenders around the motor. Should weigh a lot less than 12.5.

Tbf tourney results matter at least a fair bit if you get them reliably. People like Pwn, SKBT and so on normally place highly in tournaments so it's a fair bet to say they're good builders. Someone like Naryar does cool things but he's more inconsistent.

Point taken though since RA2 is not a skilled based competitive game largely. Stock perhaps this is less the case.
