Your thing is basically DSL-S with a few extra addons. Apart from a few little things, you got the jist of DSL-S well.

-I actually agree with the banning of trov glitch, because ultra-thin chassis parts will just break at the first impact in real life. We don't need to ban all uses of trov glitch, though, only the blatantly unrealistic ones.

-No, casters and invulnerable armor are legal in DSL-S. They are generally frowned upon and considered cheap, however, and therefore are barely even used. And you are banning casters for other uses than invulnerable armor as well.

-BFE has nothing to do with building styles. It's just a switch that tournament makers set to OFF an ON. So no. It's already banned implicitly by most people anyway.

-Banning DSA in DSL is pointless. Banning DSA in stock ? People will never accept it.

It's mostly a function of weight, heavier chassis = more HP

The burst's rotation point needs to be lower. right now your extenders are too exposed.

in a non-aesthetic way i'm not sure about this design, though.

Its uh... Its uhmm... It's a... Yeah.

It looks very cool, but honesly is far too fragile. It's going to fail as soon as you lose one of them mower blades.

Still I like the design, it's just that I don't feel it is competitive. You can make secondary wedges out of components only in DSL. In stock, however...

If you are adding a wedge to a LW HS you need to make sure your drive is sufficient. Else the recoil of the flipper will mess you up.

The MW looks badass. However, killalot claws have normals and are only decent damage-wise, so expect to be disappointed by the damage potential.

The HW I like. It is however woefully underweaponed. Are the Vladiator lifters static or are they flippers ? Any way I don't think you're gonna go under a lot of bots like that.

sending something. I will probably update it because while it looks good i'm still semi drunk ATM, and i am certain it will need some tweaking.

Edit: Bot sent. Prepare your buttocks.

2413
you can BFE the name so it is longer than the name character limit that RA2 gives you on the botlab.

2414
The bindings are just fine and weapon value doesn't matter.

It's either the weapon control which is named wrong (check for spaces!), either the weapon itself that is not wired/poorly wired.

Or maybe it is one of these bots that do not work even if there is nothing wrong with the AI. Sometimes ra2 does that, so just AI it again.

Adding a wedge won't make it good.

Don't take it as a personal attack, because it is not, but this bot is just plain bad.

N12's are mostly useless in stock because they do NOT give additional traction compared to other wheels. They are bigger, yes, but it does not matter.

Mower blades are equally useless. Use razors or irons on vertical spinners.

Your external extender setup is also unneccesarily heavy. You need to use round extenders only and not use T-extenders unless really necessary. Angled extenders are also bad.

Iron fists, despite having my approval, are kinda poor in stock. (Heavy, not as good as lighter weapons. Best weapons = maces, irons, razors, occasionally bear claws but only on spinners)

The emergency wedges do nothing.

Considering your bot is 4WD and therfore is fast it needs no side protection unless the tournament is a rumble. Use it on more weapons.

No need to put long extenders on your VS as well.

You need to save weight on bots and consider "what design will save me the most weight". Weight saved = more weight for weapons, drive, batteries, etc.

for beetleweight bash

(Image removed from quote.)

that stabilizer setup is just no. it's gonna wobble all other the place and promptly fail.

i think a single extender will be more stable even if it is more exposed. do NOT put your stabilizers on skirt hinges on vertical spinners that have nearly no contact with the ground. (VS which have a LOT of contact with the ground, like if you are building gut-ripper ones, are fine to have skirt stabilizers)

drivetrain fail, you are using a car steering and it has ridiculously high ground clearance for a flipper => your wedge is going to be inexistant

also that 4WD setup with these tiny wheels... no, just no. Keep it 2WD.

not quite sure how to implement that design i've been handling in my head for a few days now.

but definitely gonna enter and not say "i will enter" like I usually do in tournaments

Wait, That Robot Is A Spy? I thought he was banned.

That's why his name is marked in red. Red means problem, see ? :P
