A bot that's not a WS.
[ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]
I forgot how I did it, but I just invented a glitch that makes 10 mm. Steel as light as 5 mm. Steel.
See isn't that nice. A bot that has no weird design that you think is cool and clever just a simple neat bot. No WS no Drum wheels. I'm glad your listening to advice now. Personally I think it's not terrible considering you've only just started IRL building. The wedges could be pushed forward and made smaller to properly look like a real bot. Maybe try making the bot as a whole more interesting. Unlike the other Metas IRL is a lot about making bots look fun and stuff or at least that's how I and a few others see it. Experiment with shapes and designs that could be more interesting.

Hey guys, with Kill's recent departure I feel like it might be finally time for this thread.
With what's left of this niche community I was wondering if there was anything you guys would like to see going forward into the future.
Examples include:
-Subforums for certain popular/unique tournament series Ex: Orc Wars, GTMCS, NOVA, etc
-An actual attempt to finish DSL 3
-Tourney signups listed on the front page
Please feel free to comment anything you come up with yourselves as well.
As I expressed before in that happy new years topic, thank you to all of you who have kept this forum alive for the past 10+ years. While this forum will never be as active as it once was with how most of us who were the enthusiastic kids that grew up when Battlebots, Robot Wars, and Robotica where at their peak back in the early 2000s have grown up and moved onto other things than a bargain bin game from 2003. Along with how forums themselves have becoming increasingly phased out due to things such as Discord/Skype/Reddit/Etc, the fact this place still has active members is pretty amazing.
I'd like to see GTM host a yearly IRL battlebots competition.
Another thing I'd like to see- DSL 2.3 completed.
Yearly competitions you mean like errrrrrr r o b o t f o o t b a l l e v e n t

It literally takes 30 seconds to edit an image, but when you don't have 30 seconds to spare, you can't do it.
You did not seriously just say you don't have 30 seconds.

Suggestion 3 seems really great ngl. I've been running some "community events"over on the OW discord, would love to bring them here.
Example
Agreed, more community based large tournaments would be awesome. Would be a great way of bringing the community together. Would also be nice to see variety in the things they do there. Another thing I believe should be implemented is privileges. Give players benefits if they do something good for the community or have been proven. Give them privlages like making tutorials. Also this is a bit of a wak idea but maybe make it so bots that are liked the most get to be featured. I believe some websites do this. It could be a good way of showing off some of the best the community has to offer.

Wandering Spinners are unique, and many bot builders have a taste for bots other than WS.
Again, many people come to GTM for ideas and downloads, especially people new to RA2, so I don't think it's a bad idea...
Ok dude, I don't mean to make you feel bad but. No one is interested in WS. All the people who are making them are doing it to take the piss. I know you have good intentions and I'm sure you have skill in bot building-he'll that weird bug thing you made was awesome- but your pushing WS too much dude. People don't care as much about them as you think. If you really want push the idea of unique designs don't make a load of WS because then your defeating your own beliefs. I'm sorry dude but you just gotta know. I'm Badnick 2.0 guys. Fear me.

you don't need to post 4 images per bot. it's not giving us more information or insight
it's just more images that everyone's connection has to load
Okay, what about all the people that are new to DSL?
New WS pack out!
Responding with 'what about the people who are new to DSL' for every bit of feedback you get isnt a valid point

It would be cool to see some Arenas made for smaller weight classes such as antweights or beetleweights,
Pretty sure that exists

If Im being honest I dont think tutorials are needed. From the internals of the bot it looks incredibly simple. If someone wants too copy your design then they can simply look at the internals. This whole teaching people how to make your bot seems a little redundant seeing as how you told us you wanted to stop bots from being clones. This isnt to meme on you, I just wanted to give help this time.
It may be easy to you guys, but for people new to RA2, It's not a bad idea.
No it is pretty simple. I think any player could figure this out honestly

Im sorry dude but in DSL IRL no on is gonna make this
looks like sh** and also wouldn't pass safety at any decently run tournament
Also, there is not a robot IRL without controlled movement. Even Wrecks moves in a controlled matter. Uncontrolled movement is a safety hazard and and would get you counted out in 20 seconds anyway. This bot is bad and that's it.
I must have missed the part where he said this bot was IRL
Huh, That was a bit stupid of me although in my defence these bots dont really look like the types of bots I think of when thinking about TC. These just seem like IRL bots beginners make to me.

It probably would pass in most tournaments since there doesn't look to be much clipping unless they consider it to have no real means of movement which is kinda understandable. Also I hate to be that guy but I would probably explain why it looks like sh** instead of just saying it without giving helpful advice. Man when did I become such a tool

Honestly A lot of bots would beat that thing.
Flippers launch it into the sky and make it lose balance
Vertical spinners are gonna knock it off balance as well as do good damage to the chassis
Horizontal spinners are gonna be able to hit the chassis since all its got protecting it is one armour pannel and its very high up weapon means the low spinners will hit first
tbh I wouldnt say every bot type but most as long as they are decently build would do well.
this isnt to say full body spinners dont do well but putting a bot on one very weak wheel and giving it limited armour will seriously screw it over.
Normal full body spinners are pretty much the most OP thing In IRL RA2 meta if they're abused enough but the design you've gone for really limits it
