Pokébros Questionable Iron forge bots
« on: January 27, 2018, 11:13:18 AM »
So I had never tried any iron forge and had only seen showcases. SO I gave it a shot and playing around with it is really fun! I don't know if this bot is good by Iron forge standards so I will see what you guys think of it.W.A.I.D(spelt wrong) is an acronym for: What am I doing. Also sorry if this splash is not good

I can't tell from the angle of the internals, if your anchors are intersecting your batteries, and if the extenders are intersecting your wheels. If they are then your bot won't be classed as standard. This might be the same if your crushing teeth were to intersect your wheels. Your weapon could benefit for being a little further away from the bot and further down to the ground. From your weapon position, most low profiled bots with good wedges like pop-ups would be able to get under your bot before the weapon comes in play. But with a lower weapon, your bot who be able to hit opponents much easier. If you do want to lower the weapon, you can remove the plows since they'll block your weapon.

I'm not too good with Ironforge either so I hope this helps.

Yeah, this bot needs a lower weapon or a wedge.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

I haven't done any Iron forge in a while so this is not the best bot ever. I might replace the thwak bot esc tail with a pop up
