big improvement here. use the other ap on the rads so the tribars have more reach.

you could also probably use one blue snapper here instead of two greens and save weight for two more irons on that fs

Sadly, I don't have blue snappers at the moment, because v1.4 crashed, and I'm using an older RA2 game.
I will see if I can get 1.4 to work in the future, however...

If I had those blue snappers when I built this bot, I would have definetely used them instead of Snapper2's, though.

DIGGER IV isn't much different from DIGGER III, it's just better.
I'll post it when it's done!

I like Digger, it looks mean as hell
Thanks, Girthquake.
If you want an even better bot than this, check out BATTLECHOPPER from my 2.0 AI pack.

That's as close as you can get to the real thing. Nice job.

I still think that Mammoth will get ripped apart by Tombstone in 2019, however...

I hope that won't be Mammoth's first battle.

Same here.

Whilst they look fine, they are at it's core, cylinders stacked on other cylinders

Yes, and these motors are "tests." When you make the chassis to your bot, you use these tests, and then delete them before you 3d print the chassis. Then, you replace them with original, real ampflow motors, and voila! you have a bot!

Ah yes blood runner. Known for being green.

As for the build i'm gonna be honest the original blood runner was just so much better.

The shape of the chassis was much more interesting and less boxy.

Really there isn't anything inherently wrong with the bot besides it shape but claiming you improved it is just straight up wrong.

Also its just boring. You get that with a lot of bots where they look clean but arent interesting enough to say it looks cool

Ok just realised you say its name isn't actually blood runner but point still stands blood runner is still better than this

Yes, it

I'll fix that.

DIGGER III is done.
While it fights great, it's very difficult because the snappers cause it to flex, and havok.

If this bot wasn't so flexible, it wouldn't be a  :fail: :fail: :fail:

DIGGER IV under construction.

Okay, guys, what do you want me to build next-
>more wheels?
>more motors?
>actuators or pistons?
>a robot control unit?

While you're thinking about that, here's a disk spinner.
Designed to grind.

I think you should just make robots, as for the disc it looks decent I guess

Sounds good.
...but first, I need to make some real-life replicas of parts such as motors and batteries.
All these replicas will be scaled by 10x.

Blood Runner just got better.
This bot's in Tech Wars 2.
  [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]  
5 mm. Plastic.
I still need to post Tech Wars, I know, and I plan to do that soon.
ah yes, blood runner, known for its green color scheme. I think if you know how to skin components at least make them black and red like blood runner would be. Also if you made the wheels larger than it'll be like the actual blood runner, as it is meant to do damage while running over robots

Blod Runner isn't the actual name of this robot. It just looks like Blood Runner, but it's a LOT batter than BR.

2 new bots for today...
First up, a Wandering Spinner that rotates its chassis to move around.

...and then Red Phoenix. Too many popups have all razors, so I wanted to try something a little different...
  [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]
So you have essentially made a bot with 0 wheels.......
 :really_makes_you_think:

True. That's a Wandering Spinner, known as a "360" WS, because it uses the chassis as a wheel.
Remember- a WS is a bot that uses its weapon to both damage opponents, and bounce off walls, and runs consistently without stopping.
A basic WS has wheels, but no 360 WS has wheels!

Baseplate anchors actually create space in between the ground and the wedgelets.
The little cube anchors work best for wedgelets.

LW Poker. BFE'd the chassis, so it's a bit short.

a popup with irons. I didn't want to use all razors, or it would be generic.

behold the world's first clamp, snare, and flipper hybrid

Okay, this bot has to be a BOTM entry.

I'll find something else to invent...
Or you could just play the game

Where's the fun in playing the game when you can't discover something new?
because you're just re-naming an already existing bot type

but do whatever makes you feel good on the inside (aka drugs)

okay, so I'm wrong again.
Go ahead and block this topic.
