If you can "subtract" so much, like in some popups the entire second wedge, why can't you "add" a little bit and just assume the collision mesh is the actual mass rather than the visual mesh?  I for one think the collision mesh should be respected far more than the visual mesh because the collision is what really affects the outcome.

Besides, this wheel is very unlike NARMOUR because it isn't indestructible.  Even NARMOUR the problem isn't because of it's big collision mesh, it's because it is directly connected to the chassis.  Like seriously who gives a rat about NARMOUR if it just has standard 400 HP/kg and you can break it like everything else? :beer:

Rule: Oh and no massively overpowered weapons types which have no bearing on   the character it's supposed to be resembling. Basically no trying to   enter a FSS under the guise of Wonder Woman or a popup dressed as Link.
What about a Zerg Lurker or Sagat as True Popup?  TIGER UPPERCUT!!!!

And Zangief can be an SnS.  That feminine dude in Bleach with the flower petal sword can be an FSS (not only does he flail razor spam, he is just as gay as the bot type).

Just saying, can probably find one that resembles the type if you try hard enough.

Bad guy reporting in
My initial guess for your character- Napoleon.
I thought he will make a popup with Narmour and call it M.Bison.  So it can Psycho Crusher your bot to death.

Probably not.  If your DirectX isn't working you have to get that fixed, because a lot of things will stop working.

Anyway I use VLC so that's that.

Because originality is overrated.

Only reason to build new things is if it provides new utility.

Just so you guys know, because those hoverpads are indestructible, I have added A LOT of HP to it, so when they get hit they will continue to give points for the full 3 minutes.  You don't want your bottom to get hit too much or you might just lose by points.

The motor doesn't matter nearly as much as getting those stabilizers upgraded.  1800 HP is not enough to perform consistantly.  I would suggest lowering the weapon weight for aluminum skirts if possible.

If going out of socket is the standard for realism, you will need to get rid of every single axle, metal hinge, skirt hinge, pistons, and motors in this game.  Because at one point or another they will go out of socket.

Also, flippers and popups benefit from this "out of socket" more than you might think.  Flippers wouldn't have those "super flips" and popups wouldn't be able to bypass half sheets without it.

It's decent.
Needs the parts that fall off to look like they fall off, maybe make the wheels fall over?
No it needs to EXPLODE.  Come on you know every game needs a bit more explosion.

I don't know if 2x 40 is really better than 4x 20.

Well, if hoverpad break the game crashes, so I was unable to remove Base_F.  However I did reduce it's radius by half so it provide far less invulnerability than the previous version.

Also included thrusters so bot moves forward fast.  Do consider using this set instead of the standard cheatbot2 hoverpad.

Am I the only one who see how awesome Brawl Bots are?

Flail SnS, Crawlers, Dreidel, all with 100kg bonus weight, and brain must drive toward them?  Brains don't stand a chance.

Problem with hovercraft is the enormous size and indestructible nature.  I can scale the current hover-pad down to 1/2 it's radius and perhaps remove it's base F connection so they will break off.

You can probably make that chassis into a cube.

Order based on rank.

1.  Wonder Pets (running)
2.  Care Bears (original, obviously not running)
3.  MLP FIM (running)

You can skip quite a few of them to make weight for the 2 primary stabilizers.  DSL bars and motor extenders can be replaced with something lighter (flipper seg) due to their positions.

A cheap alternatives to the angle side panel is the firestorm flipper.  In that case you will need to deal with the "how".

I don't know about your experience, but my test consistently shows them to be the same speed regardless.

Test is simple, 2 astroflight lx, 4 ants, 1 control board, 10x10 chassis, titanium 5 (weights about 400 kg)

Regardless of 2 vlad or 4 vlad wheels, it takes 6 seconds to go from reset point to test arena wall.

Grip is = the last wheel that is put on the a motor, which of the 2 axles does not matter.

Except if you lose one wheel the motor stops working even though you still have the other wheel.
 
Try Techno Destructo wheels instead of two Tornado wheels on each side. (correct me if I'm wrong) Tornado wheels weigh 18 kg and have 1.5 grip a piece, Techno Destructo wheels weigh 32 kg and have 3.2 grip. So if you switch you have a higher total grip (3.0 vs 3.2) for less weight (32 kg vs 36 kg) Also on top of that you only need a regular drive Etek instead of a LX drive Etek so that's even more weight saved.


(More grip = more speed)
I don't think that is how grip works, 2 wheels do not add to speed.  Also techno got 2.3 grip.  Tornado got 1.3.
