The control should be on 'Fire' with a 'weapon' smartzone, I believe.

The matchups for Round 1 of the Loser's Bracket have been posted. Videos tomorrow.
EDIT: Lol, the randomizer's done really well with these matchups. They appear to be the same as the Winner's Bracket but with the loser's of Group 1 shuffled into the other 3. Will anybody protest if I re-randomize?
EDIT2: Re-randomized anyway. Those are the final matchups.

I think you got the wrong impression - you could make that top disc spin and get rid of the other one and have 1 large spinning disc covering the entire body.

As far as I was aware, Grimsby was part of neither and is a place all of it's own (and yes I understand places can be inside others, like Hackney or Wembley in London). 78 miles is nowhere near, in fact, it's only 78 from my uni in Portsmouth to my home. So I could say, I go to uni... at home?

Instead of ballast, why don't you use that weight for something useful in the back?

I agree, the weapon synergy here is pretty bad - the VS is a weapon that needs a very specific position for a payoff, while the pusher/rammer just moves everything around, possibly messing up a hit for the VS. (Also those spike strips are really bugging me as a vs weapon)

That means you use the FN key with the F keys to use them, like using shift to get a colon rather than semi-colon.
F11 also takes screenshots in-game which you can convert to a png file in MS Paint and upload, to answer your question in some other thread.

Does your computer suggest opening it with Internet Explorer then?
Well, either way, IE can't open it, you need to install WinRAR to open the file if you don't have it.

Not happening without a full rebuild or drive motor downgrade. I don't think it's the worst thing ever as it is :P I'll skin a little hole in it or something.

I made Crasp Evo Jr a lot shorter and restyled it as Colossus. Most misleading name of the year. And yes my drums are still pink. 397.5kg

Okay, lots to improve on here but once you have you'll have a pretty mean bot :)
1) For batteries, you can use just 1 ant battery per spin motor. Bursts need the required amps in their description, but for this bot you could use just 5 ant batteries.
2) It's very large. Shrink the chassis down to use the weight somewhere else.
3) Piglet motors are great for lower weightclasses, but you'll want something much bigger for this. Try a Perm or even a Dual Perm.

DP, Sorry.
Tornado
tornado is technically still active but is mainly on display nowadays so just keep that in mind for the project
Tornado competed at last week's Burgess Hill Robots Live event. It was glorious. It was too large to hug.
