my bot can push shoes too :V
And destroy wooden floors ;P

I might test it with more shoes, it's an important scale.
Try with a kg of sugar, that way you can compare to how it would push another beetleweight

I'm dry of ideas, any help?

I can't post in here, otherwise I'll end up screaming at you release this pack now, it's just, well, I'm so hyped! They look just utterly incredible

Are you going to do a few more RW TV show replicas after this or are you just focusing on rw live replicas now (a lot to ask for I know, just curious)

No, it's just that I respond better to positive feedback, and always have done, it's just the way my brain works, and how I have been brought up, but I will implement the changes

Ok, I think it's time for a tiny rant

Since when in ra2 did you get sent to the slaughterhouse for building something fun? It quite clearly states it was an experiment, so there's no need to be assertive about it, I just thought of an idea, and built it, and thought it could be done better by other builders, as stated in my original post. Since when was it a sin to muck around and see what can be done, and tbh I'm not one of these venko types in the bot lab who takes decades, I have other things to do

[\rant mainly directed at Kurts post]

I think it's the nature of the building style. Stock is all about efficiency, so if you build something inefficient, people are going to criticise you for it, and some more harshly than others. You shouldn't let people put you off doing what you want to do, though, else you'll never have any fun.
Almost everyone who commented on your bot gave you some advice to make it more effective. You can choose not to take the advice, if you don't want to, but remember that advice was posted for a good reason, to help you make your bot more effective.
It's late-ish and I can't be bothered to proof-read. If I said anything that sounded like I was attacking you or whatever, it was entirely unintentional.
Nah it was mostly directed at kurt, he annoys me because he almost speaks in a superior manner:
WTF is this?
Almost immediately indicates that the bot is rubbish and almost confused as to what it is, we all started somewhere, you know
The spinning part is going to hit nothing, and those Samurai Swords will do squat to literally any Stock HW.
It's underweight, underprotected, and the chassis is too big,
Positive constructive critisism is better rather than just stating the things that need done, naryars was perfect, just the right tick I between constructive, positive, stern and kind at the same time

Maybe it's just me

It doesn't help the fact that I can't get any bloody sleep as well, IRL issues, don't ask
- well my blood pressures lowered thanks to the magic of the kettle and tea bags (inb4 goes in OOC), now, it was never going anywhere anyway, it's pretty bad but I wanted it to be in the style of a ninja

And, also, (it's probably rubbish compared to your standards), I've made an ok gutripper FS, will post tommorow.

So basically restocked then?
No not really, bots and teams are going to change with every update, just its a starting point to work from

So basically restocked then?
No, the bots will have completely different designs and different names
So basically restocked then?
No, it's an entirely different ai pack

Couldn't you have eFFe'd the samurai swords into each other removing the need for 2 of the snapper 2's, and also you used a DDT for the wedge but snapper 2's for the motors, why would you do that

A) for some reason effe doesn't work for me, no idea if there's something I'm doing wrong
B) Don't ddt's make better wedges? that's what I read

Samurai swords are not exactly a great weapon in stock (unfortunately), so my advice would be to use them as some sort of cool front armour, using razors for the popup weapons themselves.
The spinning blades are also not going to help with the effectiveness of the design, so maybe consider using a blue snapper to have two RADs with tribars and razors on them, or something like that. You might be able to get more weight to do this if you make the chassis smaller by stacking some of the blacks (if you can face it :P).
I haven't played stock in a while, so the better stock builders can probably give you some better advice.
It was just an experiment to see whether I could make a weird hybrid thing as I said, and I don't think there's enough time for me to implement the changes (well there aren't enough hours in the day)

When trying to create something original for HTS ai, I came up with this thing:




Needs moar of something, it was an experiment and it has dsa, needs a skin to match the name

feel free to clone it, pretty sure kos can make an insane St4kzY version

definately not my best
