I disagree. A person should not be judged upon the amount of time they've been around in any sense, but rather their achievements.

I think interchangeable weapons are cool - as long as they're all premade and basically bought in with the entry. I get the 'you should try and evolve' thing but youknow, how different would things be if that was the dominant strategy. You'll end up with interchange bots making weapons to out interchange interchange bots etc etc.

Is this project still being worked on?
Yes it is still be worked on.

Just because we haven't posted in around a week doesn't mean we've all run off. :P

It's not a guide to BFE, it's a guide for learning your way around the file and its formatting.

Radians are a form of angle measurement like degrees. I'd learn a basic grasp of radians before tackling this stuff.
As for burst BFEing, there's a guide to that linked in the tutorial index.

its not how long youve been around, but what youve done in that timeframe. i think you know where that puts you

Jonzu, you've only been around a few months less than me, but look at the mild difference in our general forum standings :P
Time is no competition winner.

Didn't need to be 2 posts there, you could've edited the first one, to let you know. Double posting in a small timeframe is actually against GTM rules.

Faw-pac wouldn't have problems if it was actually built to weight I doubt - plus a rammer being completely uncontrollably fast is not an advantage, it'll never hit anything :P

As for razors, every weapon in Ironforge is balanced so they shouldn't be weak, but perhaps not suited to that application. A pointed spike of some description may work better.

It'd look better if the flipper didn't seem to be attached to the body by such a flimsy bit of metal - try putting a 30degree flippermaker angled into the body on the back of each of the side back ones to give the impression of a heftier hinge, if you can.

toto africa will win because it is disguised as an american


...I didn't think people were taking this seriously either :P

Probably my favourite Ironforge standard bot yet. Tribar supports = yes.

Looks cool, but can't help thinking it'd look better with a smaller axe head and a scoop/plow/wedge on the front instead of the spikes.

Nice troving yo, a lot of people here have something against it but I think it's cool, especially when used so awesomely like that.

To be fair signups have been open for over a month now.

Like I told you ages ago, you can build what you want but beating the AI with an overweight bot isn't an achievement :P

Mostly depends on components. Plus we don't really do wide drums like that as far as I'm aware. Get on the pololu wheels if you haven't already.

1536
All at once is no problem at all, you may just not get detailed advice on every single one.

Really good to see further development from you, 123 :)
Added the V1.1 patch link to the first post

I love the idea of the tread trapper. Bit of cheap armour plates over them for extra hp and that's a damn solid idea I think.

One of the top IRL Ironforge builders by far already. So so good.
