How fast does it spin? The small wheelbase looks a bit problematic to me, but I'm not expert on SnS. The compactness could come back to bit it if it goes vs a trapping hammer.
Looks pretty deadly to pretty much anything else tho

DSL 3.0 is no more, it has been replaced by 2.2, which is newer than 3.0
It's between Ironforge and DSL. Mess around with both, I think IF is easier to work with but DSL gives you a lot more choices and options to make your bot looks good.
What worries me about DSL is that it's lacking IRL AI-Bots apart from replicas. I'm not sure has anyone made proper AI-packs either.
IF isn't really gonna help you in that area either. As much as I love IF, I think DSL2.1 might be your best bet here if you're looking to make/fight vs replicas. Or you could make your own replica/IRL pack, I think it would be greatly appreciated here!

Ironforge, MW, Ring Arena, Standard ruleset, no multibots, SnS or crawlers. RedAce to host.

True Korea proves that it is best Korea once again, by demolishing the capitalist pig in honourable combat!
gg Boby, at least the first round was pretty interesting, shame that it came down to pinning. Huge thanks to RedAce for hosting!

In general, winning VS AI while driving yourself doesn't mean much, as it's not too hard to outsmart the AI. If your bot was controlled by the AI too I think it would get handled pretty easily =P I can see that you're changing things around to improve the bot, which is good and it's getting better, but to get competitive at stock you need to learn glitches like the effe glitch and snapper loading. A bpt built without those glitches is not gonna have a good time in stock, for the most part. Also, most popups have 2 wedges, on on either side, using the blue small wedges rather then emergency wedges, that might be something you want to look into. Sage made a great thread with video tutorials on all the glitches that you'll need, which is super handy. Click here to view it.

Oh, may have forgot about that. We never got a host so we should work on that.

So was having some edgy bants with some mates today. They were talking about . One of them says "What if they looked at the tomb and it said 'Here lies Madeline, daughter of Kate'". So laughter ensues. Then I go "And what if the book next to the tomb was the McCann's autobiography". More laughter.
A few minutes go by and we change topic. Then a thought enters my head. I say:
"Guys, Maddie couldn't have been in the Mines of Moria. The doors were closed and locked!"

Awesome to see someone other than Reier working on some IF stuff, especially as it's for an AI pack.

I can do a rematch if nobody else wants to go again
Sure. You can pick the arena and weightclass. Promise I won't enter a scum-tier bot this time.
Ring, MW? Cheers bae. Anyone up to host?
This still needs a host if anyone feels like it
Yo.
❤ I'll make the thread

I tried to stack batteries then gave up after 15 minutes, I didn't managed to do it. I also don't feel doing it is fair. While I think the lack of self collisions is intentional. The stacking, effes and axle loading glitches are probably not intended by the devs. It's almost like hacking the game and turning off collision detection altogether when building.
come to the ironforge camp that stuff is banned there 
+1, ironforge ftw. I think it's pretty annoying how the base, unmodded game is played in a way that's so hostile to beginners, DSL and especially Ironforge are so much easier to learn, and the fundamentals learnt from those mods can be then applied to stock, on top of the glitches etc. As for the bot, I think the consensus is that wider wedges (as in the 2 wedges are further apart) are, for the most part, better, so making your bot wider would be a good thing. You could put your 4 drive motors on the blue snappers, which would help you shrink the chassis a LOT if you managed to stack those blacks, as you would only need room for the blue snappers in the chassis instead of 4 HP Z-tecs. Using rubber wheels also helps the wedges a lot. Stock is all about squeezing the most efficiency out of a bot design as possible, so rebuilding the chassis a lot to minimize empty space (and therefore chassis weight) is essentials on nearly all stock bots. If you're feeling lost, I would recommend downloading some famous bots build by other people (I think R4 is a good example of a popup, and is relatively simple, though I could be wrong) and see how they are made.

Are you planning to make this into a standalone mod? It looks super interesting and fun, I particularly like the battery changes.

Just sayin', but, doesn't this need to be in the audio/video section?
Thought that as more for user-made content What did you guys think of S06E12? I think it as my favourite episode so far. I particularly loved Gabriel's character development. I think Maggie and Carol getting kidnapped is a bit of a cop-out though.

Upgrade the armor. Also, use panelling and flipper segments to build a wheel guard and using any extra weight try to wrap the wheel guard around the back also. Wedges on the back are unnecessary, you should move them to the front.
I'm pretty sure the sheets on the back are for stability. Either way I don't think they're IRL myself. Pretty sure you could bolt some more weapons on the front in an IRL way and make it hammer/pusher hybrid if you have spare weight. Or just make the chassis longer to make the bot more stable.

If anyone accepts this I'm up to host.

A'ight, Gauche wants an ironforge HW. I'll pick the arena tonight, although we'll have to wait for Gauche to finish his other battle to make the thread.
Any update on this? Anyone else want a free win Ironforge? Any weightclass, I don't mind.

Shouldn't your showcase be Badger does Ironforge, then?
Fixed =P
