sorry but how the hell is it not irl exactly? i'd like to know exactly why so i can fix it
hurry up and tell me, i still got 5 hours to rebuild it from scratch if i bloody have to, im entering this tournament even if it kills me
(im new to this irl thing so the least you could do is explain how im supposed to build it "irl")
its the 2 perm motrs outside the chassis isn't it? i'll tweak them to be inside then resend again and to be clear this is a remake of a bot i saw on a little youtube series that was hosted after robot wars was taken off the air called lego robot wars (they built little radio controlled lego bots and made them fight) and whiplash was one of the most destructive and amusing bots on there, so from what i've hear irl is about a good show and let me tell you this thing is great for that aspect lol. i will keep sending as many times as it takes to get it in because i want mayhem
My advice would be to create a showcase and post screenshots of your robots there, so people can give you feedback on them and help you improve. Take a look at other people's DSL showcases as well and see what they're doing, it'll help you understand what DSL-IRL robots are meant to look like.

Having your motors outside of the chassis isn't necessarily un-IRL, but it's really not recommended either because it makes them vulnerable to getting damaged or knocked off. So try and move them inside the chassis if you can, and also make sure that the weapon itself is supported and doesn't just look like it's floating in mid-air.
well i rebuilt whiplash from scratch its slower but it should fit irl standards now (i hope) i'll post a quick screenshot here for you to judge (will delete it once you let me know whether its ready or not)
So I got this picture from Demon of Tomorrow (or Doot for short) and here's the issues I see:


1: The bars on the inside of the axles facing inwards towards the middle will cut straight through the perm, which is unrealistic and not IRL.

2: You only have the reinforced perm metal holding the axle. That wouldn't be enough in real life. Put a couple of extenders jsut next to the other side of the bar to give it support.

3: There's not enough support for the external perm. Either use armor panels to make a sort of box around them or use the chassis to keep them internal, kind of like Heavy Metal Noise: http://battlebots.wikia.com/wiki/Heavy_Metal_Noise

You could probably use a couple of wedgelets or even just angle extenders because I think you won't be able to get robots into your blade in VS mode.

bit too late, already applied for a tournament, if im accepted i will work on it once its over so thanks for the additional info. for now all i can say is its showtime ;). time for the noob to take on the forum lol (yes im over hyped to see how my bot will do in my first tournament, probably too much)

You can update your robot and it's AI if you want. What tournament is it, by the way?

 [DSL IRL - All Weightclasses] ADOT IRL Tournament - SIGNUPS (well im trying but apparently my bot is not irl, tried everything to make it irl and its not been accepted and to make matters worse im not even told what the problem is, great -_____-)
is there a tutorial on irl building or something?
https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=17443.0

Basically, everything has to be fully possible IRL. So no having your spinner not have extenders holding the axle, or having moving parts cut through other moving parts. Everything has to be capable of being done IRL. I recommend opening a showcase now so you can get advice, and if you're wondering how see this tutorial here: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=17467

I came up with an idea once.
This idea involved a flamethrowing plunger on a lifting arm.
The idea wouldn't go away so now you have a flamethrowing lift robot with its lifter vaguely looking like a plunger.
It's a good wedge at least.

ok so i managed to ai whiplash but im still having the problem where the weapon is still spinning the same direction when flipped resulting in whiplash being thrown instead of the opposition, any way to fix this or is it something im just gonna have deal with and bite the bullet?

I think that's something you'll have to deal with. You COULD make driving backwards also spin the drum in the opposite direction, but this may be fiddly and awkward and it would probably be better to just stick it out and hope you get thrown back the correct way up.

EDIT: yeah ignore me i have gone full retard

What is with the people constantly using printscreen button for the screenshot? Just start and use bcam
That's a terrible idea. That takes up loads of memory for no major benefit over F11 or even Print Screen.

Please stop posting in Technical Support.

bad dreams 2.5 isn't IRL imo. you wouldn't get a tooth design like that IRL because of how little bite it would get, and it definitely feels like it is just tryharding.

Paladin Evo: It's just about IRL, though i still dislike it, and it's definitely tryhard.
Paladon't: The ant is fine. It looks odd and i can't work out what it does other than distracts, so yeah, guess I'm going to also do this just to out cancer you, because bitch I can easily do that. I built Raus, I can out cancer anybody.
Paladon'tdothis: I have a slight predisposition against it, but this, just from a glance, looks like it is IRL.

well i played online earlier on that hamachi with one of my mates and there was almost no lag apart from one match, could it be due to the location of players? eg:uk and usa
The host sees much less lag than the other participants.

Again, I'm afraid AI tournaments are your best bet.
