Doesn't matters much at the insane speeds it would spin if it worked right...
Also i hadn't the weight to protect them.

Good ? SnSnSnS will slowly rip Gray Matter to shreds, that is all, and it's gonna be a long match. Although Gray Matter isn't a bad bot and they are equally matched in weapon hitpoints, Somebody wins because it has much more powerful weapons.

Exactly.
I think i can solve this with servo drive because of the obscene torque they have... but then it'll probably be so damn slow to move that it won't be worth it.

 Singularity - 8 ants, 1mm titanium, 2WD Magmotor drive with hypnos, and the tribar is on a 360° free spinning axle thing. Damn thing doesn't work... and i'll let you guess how it is supposed to work.

Double post... who cares...
Announcement: I'm going in vacation in the middle of July and am probably going to work on the AI pack while not here. So just send your teams please. If i got a subsequent number of teams (like 20+) i will release an Alpha in september.
I might also bring changes to all of the AI. Notably rebuilding most of the DSL original AI to make them more efficient, rebuilding the Rookies and extra bots, and probably even replacing the replicas with bots i will build in the team's continuation (ants and beetles notably).
I could get some help with this also... that means you could submit a bot alone, either a rebuild or an entirely new bot team-themed, that means no rammer on the Red Zone team and no flipper in the Megaton team, etc.

What i mean is that 2 metal hinges is good for MW's and HW's but that's really heavy for a LW.
That's why 1 metal hinge is enough indeed.

@Doomkiller: Then I bet you can do that with snapper loading. You put the hinge, then glitch it out of position and put the Magmotor then.
@Weirdo: Too heavy for a LW.

At least Somebody has now something valable to boast about...
Rather than " YAY IVE BEATEN DOAM ONCE!! RIPTERRA IS SO GOOD!!!11"

I think chained motors could be theorically done IRL, with some other thing than an electric wire, something like a static metallic brush (directly linked to the batteries with an electric wire) touching a metallic ring, which is placed on the second (spinning) motor, a little like electric trains, and that conducts electricity.
However about the motor's resistance to gyro forces...

Urjak = biohazard weapon.
Anyways, are viruses really used for FOOD by several species? That makes no sense to me. They're tiny as hell compared to other lifeforms, not really nutritive excepted for the shell's proteins and dangerous to eat for an unicellular organism (risk of infection if the unicelllar phagocytes the virus)...

Yeah, CA stinks against VS. And drives like a bitch anyways : too much frontal weight.. i bet that could have been solved easily by putting frontal stabilizers like icepicks touching the ground... huh? HUUUH ???

[Edit] One problem with the patch, the DSL gives all these awesome parts, but they are so much heavier than the normal ones, 105kg for a motor, but the max weight limit is still 800kg, is this normal? o_o
Yes it is normal. DSL was made to be balanced... but i actually doubt about the motors being really equal, and it might be better to chain them because the weight and power consumption of DSL motors increases are much more important that the maxspeed and gain (torque) ones.

Who are the other competitors anyways?
The lime green piece of sh** is Hydro's, the unattractive popup is probably S32's, Frenzy is probably Inf's, the VS must be Ianh's... but i'm not sure.

and make a "Hydro's Spam Montage" and shove it on youtube :-D
Don't you realize that you are actually spamming ?

Not bad.
1st version's wedges are much better than 2nd's. Just dump the sheets on the middle of the hinges and get something tougher than plastic for the others.
And if they are knocked too easily just use a stronger material...
@S32: Nope. On a double wedge like that, static wedges will be not only heavier but less efficient than hinged ones.
See Hazcon.

Not bad.
Will be better with less wedges but stronger ones (i'd get something like one 80cm aluminium sheet on a metal hinge and two 80cm aluminium sheets on a skirt hinge, similar to Urjak's last LW TS and my Torment), also these angled connectors waste weight and 3 batts will be enough for this.

DSL ant ? Definitely going to do this one... this should be fun just gtfo.

The wheels lift off the ground because of the way driving in RA2 works. When your wheels are touching the ground and you spin them, you aren't actually being moved by the wheels. The game applies force to your bot's chassis in order to move it. So if your chassis is pointing up (as yours and Slaying Mantis's are) the game applies force upwards, and lifts your wheels off the ground. Wouldn't that mean that chassis that are respectively pointing up and down will both be slower and less stable, and have respectively worse/better wedges if they have? _________ @Scrap: Well counting from Hydro's last post (5 May 6:56) and 2 days before this (3 May 7:01), (both of these might be different for you because i'm GMT +1), Hydro did made 193 posts if i'm not mistaken.

But more advanced (Multicellular) lifeforms choose what to eat, where to eat. Nearly all of them don't. An animal won't make unnecessary efforts to get some food when they can get some in an easier/safer/less tiring way.
