(This whole discussion originally started at page 48 of Urjak's showcase, but it has now a new thread for discussing and keeping offtopic out of the showcase)
In real life, the wheel could be made to a perfect size and there could be a hole cut in the firestorm flipper. What's unrealistic is melty brain AI <- shouldn't be allowed. Flails are not realistic because they don't work in real life but who cares they work in ra2 so they are a legitimate weapon system. This rule is enforced by tournaments, and the tournament host has the right to declare a bot "unrealistic" or not, according to his own opinion. But people can build whatever the
they want in their showcases. Just as there's people who build "realistic" stock bots, people can build "unrealistic" DSL bots.
I agree the general DSL realism rule is broken, but to be honest that rule should never be "enforced" in the first place.
