looks pretty rad but yeh weapon placement might be a bit sus just cus you'll need to be all the way under a bot to use half of them

concept bot
another attempt at getting a TRFBD to have the rotation of the weapons to be so that they hit downwards whilst the robot moves forward, which would make it far less likely to be deweaponed
stable enough but the spinners have too much torque so it ends up being really slow. assumedly if i downgraded the weapon motor (mag probably) or upgraded the drive (e-tek) it'd work better

Bobby 3.jpg

new bot from the bobby bugatti chassis. nice and destructive, okay wedge. plastic 3 iirc
 
Justice.jpg

narmoured (yikers) angled VS. might be too fast but is at least fairly durable thinks to the lame narmour
 
Milkchurn.jpg

tracked de-weaponer. not too slow, just wide enough, reasonably destructive. plastic 1 but who really cares when its got the potters wheel discs
 
Coreblade v2.jpg

Aaaand now DSL 2.1 is back babyyy
i'd like to believe i was responsible for it but honestly it's cool to see it pop up again right around when i decide to start playing a bit again

2.1 is gang and we are old men do not take away our few remaining pleasures in this world
the problem i can forsee with an sns flipper is that it's either so fast that not bot will meaningfully get onto its wedge or that it'll be too slow to get any significant flip without a more complicated wedge/flipper setup

Yeh i wish small wedges weren't so low HP but hey
the beaters are good the wedge isn't basically
would add firestorm flippers if they weren't garbage in 2.1

popup part is good, dunno about the whammer part really but i had to avoid a cease and desist from the french government somehow

SnS looks nice but also somewhat underweaponed
lw looks good
these 2.2 or not? i guess it would make a difference as to whether npc fast -> technos would be good enough

117
yeh looks pretty poo to be honest mate
sub-hw sidehammer hybrids are condemned to death

skins tend to not matter. i know a lot of stock guys used custom skins when i was more active, doesn't really make any difference since if you export the botfile the maps should be the same

i think it's hard to play this game everyday cus it's pretty patience testing. other competitive games have kinda filled the void ra2 left and whilst i like the unique environment around the game and the community generally it's pretty arse to actually run tournaments for or gauge "competitive skill".
still cool when bigger tournaments happen and it's fun to watch a lot of the better matches still
