I'm ****ing livid right now, I JUST finished recording Group 7
That happened to my old laptop. I briefly managed to fix it, but it died again pretty quickly. Turned out my hard drive was ****ed.

I think Megiddo would look better with all 4 wheels the same size. I like the other two though, particularly the axe bot.

ants wheels kinda look funny on it tbh. maybe you should go for treads since i think that would be a pretty unique look. you should also add some extenders to make it look like the flippers are connected somehow and so they don't look as fragile.
Funnily enough the very first version of this bot did actually use treads. The problem I was facing was that when a bot drove up on top of the chassis it would jam up the tracks and stop the bot from moving. I've switched the Ant wheels to Rubber wheels (Largest that will fit in those wheelguards) since. I will definitely add some extenders to the flipper though (To be clear, do you mean those fake pistons that people do, or something else?)

I'd say fake pistons but also thicker extenders holding the panels. Maybe add panels to the front, too.
Problem is there isn't really much room for all of that stuff. If I add extenders to the sides of the panels then it'll cause there to be a lip preventing bots from going onto the flipper. Same case with putting panels on the front. I'm trying to find a solution for this, but it looks like it will probably need a complete redesign.

Thanks yugi, signups are now open! Remember to let me know any fun fact/trivia about your bots, and if you want them to compete in the mini tournaments!

sh**. I sent you a submission but I didn't include any of that stuff. Should I resend it?

Made some attempts to make Supervolcano look less generic. Shrunk the chassis slightly so there's a lot less empty space. Gave it some wheelguards and smaller wheels to fit in them, and added some spikes because why not. Came out looking a bit like some weird mutated Toon Raider / TR2. Pics below.

Not bad overall, but seems a bit bland... make it look cooler.

Chassis can be less large too.
I agree with everything you've said. I've been at a loss on how to make it more interesting though. Any suggestions? This is actually after a reduction in chassis size too. but I agree it needs to be shorter.

Been ill today so spent some time on RA2 designing bots. Here's one of them. Pretty much a heavyweight evolution of the Caldera 3 concept. Hence the name Supervolcano. 2X Storm bursts for the weapon, and 2X TWM3R2 Drive for drive (Less speed than Caldera) I've found this design to be pretty excellent at getting OOTAs, and the second burst helps a lot with that. Pics below.

Badger.. i dont think that would be good... license issues!!
Easy solution: FAKE BRANDS

Example:
DragonSuperCoal Inc
Badger's Beavers
09 Ways to Dye
Demon Industries
Craaig's Crustatians.
Mega Tainted Pictures
Thacker's Metal Workings
etc
Or just use real brands because using them in a mod that you aren't charging for or distributing en masse almost certainly qualifies as free use, and even if it doesn't McDonalds aren't gonna sue someone just for using their logo in a mod for a relatively obscure 15 year old game.
nobody wants Mcdonalds to brand their robot...
McDonalds was just a random example dude...

Looks very nice visually. Hella underweight though if that 149 KG isn't a typo. Can't you beef up the armour or something?

I may have to enter Zanzibar into this.

Many believe that anime tits are always inferior, for the simple reason that real tits exist. After a heated discussion with some trusted sources, I've decided to carefully analyze why anime tits can be better.
I'll agree that real tits are fantastic but there's a problem: natural tits can only grow to be so large. When people think of real women with huge tits, they often think of Hitomi Tanaka, who is so known for her boobs that she is also known as Hitomi J-Cup in some circles. However Hitomi is just one person, and the amount of people in the world with tits as large as her make up a very small percentage of humanity. When you look at anime tits though, I'd estimate that at least a quarter of all anime girls have giant tits. Another thing to consider is fanart. Artists are constantly drawing lewd fanart of anime girls with huge tits, putting nipples where the official artists would cower in fear, going where paid workers wouldn't dare go. Some generous artists share the gift of huge tits to anime girls who normally have small tits, and even on men sometimes if they're into that. But there's no reason to draw real girls with huge anime tits, because they're real, and it's up to them if they want to show their tits, not greedy corporate pigs who don't care about us enough to give the gift of nipples. Because of this, there is a massive outpouring of fanart for anime girls, and by extension anime tits, while there is little to none for real girls.
Another problem is that real girls have actual souls and lives, so they have the option to never expose their tits to anyone, therefore robbing humanity of the gift they were born with. With anime tits, if the original source doesn't have a revealing outfit of any kind, any artist could come in and draw the character naked, which means that almost ALL anime tits can be seen in some way. If an anime girl has a significant role in the source or is well-liked in the community, there's a good chance that someone has drawn them with their tits out.
I'll admit that, like real life, many anime tits are simply inferior to others. For example, Nintendo is a "Family Company", so they use that bullsh** as an excuse to often draw their characters with either small tits, or outfits that aren't revealing, or in the worse case, both. but as previously mentioned, fanartists have the power to grant these poor, flat-chested, potential waifus the tits they deserve. One artist that you've probably heard of, AkaiRiot, dedicates most of his artistic talent on turning the boring, uninspired Nintendo girls from Smash Bros into beautiful waifus with gigantic tits.
Back on the topic of Real Tits VS Anime Tits, let's move onto my chief argument. When you're trying to think of points for each side, you'd probably start with an anime girl and real life girl with approximately the same bust size, and then make your judgement from there. This is completely wrong, however, and when you do this you will see that in this case the answer is ALWAYS real tits. You only see the true beauty of anime tits when you look closer, and look for anime tits that are much larger and much bouncier than real tits could ever be. When you do this, you see that anime tits can go to levels that real tits could never come close to. Anime tits can become impossibly oversized and bounce more than a pack of 6-year-olds in a bouncy castle after drinking 12 party-sized bottles of soda. Since real life tits could never reach these levels of beauty, anime tits are unmatched and are therefore the winners in every comparison. In situations where the tits are the same size and bounciness though, real tits will always win.
So in conclusion, all tits are beautiful and should be cherished for what they are. In some scenarios anime tits are superior, but in others real tits win. If you're comparing two busts of equal caliber, real tits will win 90% of the time. But when you go deeper, you'll find anime tits that real tits could never come close to matching, which means that anime tits would win by default. There are also people who believe in solely one type and renounce the other. These people are stupid, and need to either go outside and see how great real tits can be, or stay inside and see how great anime tits can be. Everyone needs to appreciate all tits, no matter what kind, because tits are beautiful and should be appreciated before this generation takes over our culture with asses which, while still fantastic, are not quite as good as tits IMO.
Nice copypasta bro

No. Just No. I am scared of females.
I'm pretty sure the guy who enjoys anime porn is more likely to be the one who's scared of females. Just sayin'.

I'm pretty sure there's a difference between enjoying something and joking about it. Just sayin'
The enjoyment quote wasn't aimed at you. Apologies if you thought it was. It was a bit of a joke anyway. Sorry if I caused offence.

Eh, each to their own. If people want to jerk it to a bunch of drawings, let them.
Oh, don't get me wrong I'm not saying they can't/shouldn't. I'm just saying that someone who likes cartoon porn accusing someone of being afraid of women is a tad rich.

I wish the following things would die:
- IRL
- Retooled
- RA2
- This website
- Me
The more time I spend here the more I agree with this sentiment.
