heads up your spinner on the bot's right side is backwards :) the dark part of the teeth is the part that does the damage.
I think it's looking a lot better man! try adding different side stabilizer setups, you'll find something that helps it gyro less. don't forget that in IF you are allowed to have up to 4 ballasts and those ballasts will not count towards your weight limit (so your 400kg HW can weigh up to 600kg if you add 4 ballasts). making your bot heavier will help the stability a lot. 124

messing around a little with different wheel setups.
i remain unconvinced but i think they look kinda cool. track one especially. too bad it's super slow due to the grip nerf. it'll need dualbirds to be competitive but that'll be really heavy and the weapon will suffer as a result EDIT: gave it dualbirds. works pretty good. still undecided if it's better than mini wheels, probably isn't 125

you're definitely getting there. personally i would remove both the saws and axes (saws aren't great for VS) and instead just stick a small disk on with 4 teeth. it's a much better basic setup.
again, still seems unstable to me? it's definitely better but some side supports can't hurt you. especially if you're underweight you should have the weight to do it 126
Ironforge TC Showcases / Re: Kelimpels Ironforge Showcase« on: May 07, 2020, 03:09:51 PM »
yes. much better sticking to the weight limit. better amount of weapons too, though they still look like they will have an awfully hard time hitting opponents. They also clip together something nasty and that goes against the rules of Standard. you need to move them farther apart or find some way where they don't phase through each other when they spin. having your side weapons spin inwards instead of outwards is probably also a good idea.
have you tested it much in the arena? it looks really unstable to me. it seems really tall and narrow with a lot of gyro force. you should see if it works, otherwise you might have to make it wider or at least lower the weapons down. it's pretty hard to tell with your camera angle though. an isometric 3/4 view is usually a lot more helpful for us to see the bot instead of a top-down one. 127
Ironforge TC Showcases / Re: Kelimpels Ironforge Showcase« on: May 07, 2020, 02:35:38 AM »Compact the chassis and Don't really be afraid to have those drive motors to hang out/ be exposed at the back this is way more true in dsl. the main reason to do that in dsl is the chassis armor is so weak but it's a lot stronger in ironforge. kel, i think you're on the right track. i would definitely try to keep as close to either 200kg or 400kg (the ironforge MW and HW weight limits) as you can. you currently have a super underweight HW that you could easily stick 85kg worth of armor or weapons on and there's no reason ever to not do this. your batteries are good (each gives 20amps, motors use 10amps each). your weapons are a little less than ideal but easily remedied. I would definitely add more weapons and some side armor would probably help too. your two bottom spinners currently are doing almost no damage because most weapons in IF only do damage on the blade or the tip (depending on the weapon, of course). it's difficult to use FS-weaponry well as a result but you can do it if you use weapons without normals. Alternatively you could either make it more of an HS or you could angle your weapons to something like this: 128

gj copying my rules but i'll bite.
will try to send something soon i wouldn't encourage something 'difficult to ai' in an ai tournament though. those rules were for parsec so they might not translate well (I assume this is AI?). 129

very nice. great looking. clean design
part of me does wish there was a little variation in color though, it is riding the line of being a bit too uniform. the shape though I think is great. really nice job on the making the weapon look good 131

it would help a lot if you could put the image in your actual post. you're attaching the images correctly, just click on the 'insert attachment 0' button and it'll put it in your post. it won't show up on your preview but it will work when you submit it.

i do.
not sure why but and like even if no one cares why arbitrary stop people from posting? its not like the discord is a good substitute anyway. obviously i agree with keeping it around as a record as well but it's still better than discord even apart from that 137

assbestostar-sama decided one morn to launch the greatest event of a generation.
Quote from: abbessotar im sure the theme had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he kept getting banned from every place he joined. i can't believe every admin is so prejudiced. alas, a genius is never recognized in his generation. But I couldn't believe my luck. here he was, a veritable demi-god, in my presence, offering ME a chance to make a name for myself. i jumped on the opportunity. Quote from: rieir i want 2 win but even my best efforts were a mere shadow of his own. i was outclassed. ashamed-- Quote from: asbestorar I dont like this, and you did not even state where you from. Make a new bot and state where your from, you only have 1 more chance. i knew this would be my last shot to make the big leagues. i couldn't pass up a merciful second chance like this. i toiled day and night for months and sent him a new design. truly my magnum opus. Quote from: reir mr sir abseso star pls dont be mad wit me im so sorry its all my fault all ive wanted since i was a youg boy was to be in your tournament im from somalia just like u and i love trumpand stalin and hilter their my heros just like ur my hero. i know u were bad wronged by arc and badnik and they should pay dearly for there war crimes i only made arc hank pakey so u could kill it and win and feel good im sorry im so sorry i just want to leave somalia and take u with me pls help(I may have bfe'd the chassis to have 1hp so it dies in one hit to everything. but i trusted asbes to cut the deck in my favor regardless) and then i was accepted ![]() in the end, i learned from my past jobs -- find the biggest ass 138
