Here's a Redstone Lock for those who might need it. The design here is quite easy to use and it should be easy to modify the code if you wished to. The areas where there is stone brick and a torch at the end instead of the basic redstone is part of the code.

Me and Chaosmancer are naming ourselves The Bag of Kittens, the namesake deriving from the conversation on the chatbox regarding the tournament.

[a general advices]
Dude, you forgot to include/post the info about the bot, along with the pics. Now we have to guess (making it hard to give a proper advices) the bot armour (plastic or DSA ?), the bot weight (what free weight you have left to spend ?), how much stacked batts (2 pinks I supose ?). Make a habbit to yourself to include that info for every bot, cos this is making our job (to give advices) harder.

Do you test enough your bots? Install some hardcore AI pack and test your bots vs this pack, this way you will see your bots flaws and you will get an objectively estimation about the quality of your bots.
[/a general advices]


I do quality-test my bots against Starcore AI. Also, I've added the information about Jackrabbit's statistics to the post.

Not bad, but a couple things could be improved. Foremost, a pink battery isn't nearly enough for this, use a nifty instead. You might want to look into snapper loading as well (Sage made a video of it in the thread "RA2: Tips and Tricks" in the tutorials section) to get you some extra weight.

Ah, alright. I may create an enhanced non-tournament version, however the version of Jackrabbit for The Kings will be staying the same.

Meet Jackrabbit, a rather generic Horizontal Spinner powered by three pinks and is a robot which uses plastic armor. This robot will however be my representative for my possible upcoming tournament known as The Kings - which I am planning to make a King of the Hill tournament.

I'm still waiting for the more aggressive competition to go and try out Stock, since it's rather boring not having anyone who are in any rivalries of sorts.

    def Tick(self):
        # check to see if anyone has been "eliminated" by falling off the tabletop
        for each in self.players:
            if plus.getLocation(each)[1] < -6:
                plus.eliminatePlayer(each)
                deathOpt = ("Misc_SinisterLaugh1.wav", "Misc_SinisterLaugh3.wav", "Misc_DontLookDown.wav")
                sounds['death'] = plus.createSound("Sounds/announcers/"+random.choice(deathOpt), False, (0,0,0))
                plus.playSound(sounds['death'])

This script is part of that from Flextop, it causes a Runtime-Error when a bot is eliminated from falling. Any idea why?

There seems to be a lot of empty space in the bot. You could downgrade the drive to RADs so you can downsize the Chassis and allow for more weight for weapons. Also, in my opinion, a tribar would be a more viable choice for a HS.

I wanted to pay homage to SFTW, large chassis, Alu armor, and hub wheels. I couldn't use the Chewblade because... It sucked. But I still wanted a disc so...

Alright, though this will probably reduce the combat-effectiveness of the bot in the tournament.

I have several Antweights which are part of my own pack consisting of AWs and BWs, if you like I can give you the better robots which are in the pack.

Spike Spam = Remove some irons and upgrade the drive to HPs.

Probably going to end-up like a better version of Area Denial Drone.

*Image removed. Please don't post your robots in my showcase.* - my apologies.

can you axle load? because you could probably stack the pistons if you axle load the first one. then you could stack the air tanks, and have the chassis be super-narrow. you will get a crap-ton of weight to use.

ramplates are also mostly useless

Was mainly a joke-bot, so I didn't really care about how I distributed my weight to be honest. Thanks for the tip, anyway.

This was truly the most stupidly fun bot to play around with and make, the emphasis on "stupidly" is probably evidenced by the god-awful splash, which literally took only one and a half minutes to make. Also fully runs on air.

Instead of having 2 rows of ramming weapons, just set up your spikes like this on one BA.

Thanks for that, it drastically improved the bot's performance in terms of damage.

I attempted to take all the advice given to me, and this is the result. I'd be more than happy to take any more criticism in order to improve this bot.
