You guys are the life support that keep this community breathing. Everybody please give a round of applause to these wonderfully insane people. 
no man, its the BOOMERS who inject us with their wisdom from 50 years ago also if anyone's wondering, i did try a rectangular mesh like the 20cms  it sadly wasn't that stable, and it might cause a bunch of bots to be unbalanced

you guys are funny
clownworld forums also update, bild's patch really doesn't work too well in actual battle. idk if it's because of how many parts fall off or what, but its not as promising as it was in testing. also it cause agod on quite a few bots (flatline, radpole, and a few other fairly well known bots icr). more than likely the best way forwards is going to be enlarging the mesh is the best way to go for stability. also you don't have ****ed up weights from the 0kg parts, although the wedge edge might have to stay 0kgs with a mesh.  this is about as small as it can go while being what i consider to be stable. and it seem to work in actual battle

so, the video that was posted uses bilds unreleased patch that makes all the crashy components 0kgs with no collision mesh. despite technically having no collision mesh, they are still somehow damageable and can be broken off. and yes, they have to be 0kgs to prevent gyro. builders/tournament hosts are probably going to want to use an unpatched game for building/checking bots to ensure that they stay within the weight limits
first off, i want to make it clear that this patch doesn't eliminate 100% of all crashes/havoks related to small parts. it is however, a very noticeable improvement over what we currently have. also, bots with motors attached directly to a meshless part have a higher chance of agoding
one thing that I have found is that the no mesh gmfs can probably be changed is swapping to a 2d mesh for 10cm and angled extenders. it'll give them better hit detection in terms of stopping things phasing through them, and fme they have about equal stability as a collision meshless gmf. keeping the original 3d mesh at 0kgs also does work in helping with stability, but i don't think it's as effective as going full meshless/2d
also wedge edges have their original mesh at 0kgs. it works fine as they really aren't as bad the 10cms or angled pieces. those parts kind of need to go either 2d or full meshless
me and a few other will prolly keep playing around and see if can find something better to use so stay tuned ig

no gyro btw
unfortunately this probably won't be released as ra2 is the most broken ****ing game and we need to accept that and stop pretending like its supposed to be a half decent simulator or abandon it

in regards to buffing motors, most of the current motors aren't capable of hitting their actual max speeds with anything besides small vert setups. as such, I wouldn't increase the max speed, if anything, I would drop it on things like perms as a trade off for more torque. in theory it would make wedgeless spinners like offset hs and nightmare style vs slightly more useable (although you can argue if this is a good thing), while also nerfing gutripper spin speed.
tbh though, i wouldn't bother for now. at least not until we can agree on a flat change
and yes I know that means you could use some of them as drive motors, but tbh they're always going to be less efficient than npc fasts with 48 torque

so a few thoughts on some of the suggestions for the flat:
- banning the flat outright would obviously be the ideal solution, but its far too much of a crutch for a lot of people to agree with
- i also don't think people will accept a weight increase as it would push some of their bots over the weight-limit
- yes i realize this would also affect things like drums and lower weight spinners (**** them tbh)
- a statistical nerf would probably be the best way forwards with how dependent the community is on it. i've tried various bots (eom, rorscach, etc) with various nerfed flat motors around piglet to twm levels, and while they are noticeably less damaging, they are by no means completely inept at fighting. it also encourages people to either use either stronger motors to self right, or have a dedicated srimech as the motors usually aren't strong enough for bots to crawl around on their disks
- while i do think some of the weapon motors could use some tweaking, unless you buff all of them to the point where the meta is even more ****ed up, i don't think that buffing the other motors would reduce flatmotor usage. the flat would still probably remain the top choice for gutrippers due to its weight, size, and hp, as well as that more powerful motors really wouldn't be worth it for them unless they're absurdly powerful. ofc banning the flat would solve this, but i don't think that's something that's possible rn. also, i dont think 2.2 component and chassis hp is adequate for stronger motors, but that's for another discussion
- personally at this point i would be fine with outright banning the flatmotor, but i recongize that its gonna be a long slow process and that not everyone wants to go the full distance
feel free to agree or disagree, you do you

Wtf nobody was exposed 0/10
Top hingers are wack
wasn't hop supposed to be starting toxic vert watch

flat motors are cancer and are partially responsible for why verts are so strong. it's far too easy to build a dual vert with no compromises compared to perms/eteks.
top hinges are also cancer and are far more powerful than their burst motors suggest
thanks for listening to my ted talk. feel free to argue in the comments

Just a reminder
Horrible color schemes make your bot 30% more unique
Have a boring 4wd vert you want to give personality?
Make it burn the retinas of the viewer with a full hot pink color scheme with a splash of purple
It totally won't look like absolute sh**
