The gods of ra2 have been good to me today and has let me get away with this:



Still Aluminum 3 armour, but now aluminium connectors rather than titanium.

It looks great now.

If only you had the weight to put on a wedge it would be awesome !
Thanks a lot!

Come To think of it, i could shave some weight by getting rid of the wider razors...
I can't downgrade the armour though, i had it with plastic 3 at one point and had a match against industrial coal miner.
I got more damage on it but i still was left destroyed very quickly  :frown:

Back on topic  :laughing
Some guy in my tech class is making this birdbox (i think) and it looks exactly like a shell spinner.
Its even got bumps on the outside that look just like beater bars!

But yeah, like they said, try different weapons, like small DS teeth or beater bars.

I bet you can make the chassis extensions that hold the weapons smaller, since piglet motors (assuming those are what you're using) can be attached slightly outside of the chassis, and the middle section looks vulnerable; add armor if you can.

As for the motor issue, keep trying. you might have to make the chassis larger, but the weight gained from using Vlads may be worth it.
Thanks, that's a lot of usefull advice  :mrgreen:

Anyway turns out making the chasis even smaller fixed the problem with the motors so I give ya





I'm not sure what or even if i should put anything on the end of the beaterbars, as you can probably tell i'm flirting with the dark god of realism when it comes to intersecting the wheels.

Oh, its aluminium3 armour btw.

5. Panic Attack (Rammer with Lifter = BORING!)
4. Pussycat (Very Very annoyng...)
3. Typhoon (Destructive, but Unfair)
2. Storm II (Too Fast, Too Annoying)
1. Razer  (Most Boring Robot IMO.)
Wow THOSE are your most hated bots!

P.A = My Favourite robot of them all
Pussycat = really cool design and really fun to watch
Typhoon = shouldn't have won season 7 but was still very cool
Storm II = brilliant, even if it didn't have a weapon it still caused havok
Razer = Erm i really liked razer, but i thought that nobody in the world didn't like razer untill this thread.

Yup. I hated Panic Attack, because it was boring. It had Lifter, which didn't do any effect or flip opponents.
You did not just insult Panic Attack  :rage
I didn't see that first time i posted here!

Anyway, P.A=Chaos 2=Razer=Hypno-disk=Tornado best not bring that up again  :mrgreen:

Well, I used a plastic tub.
To be honest i do suffer from arachnophobia.
Luckily though, when i'm scared of something, i usualy madly attack it.

So yeah, i'd probably hit it with a comedy sized newspaper.

Cassius flipped PA in S2 grand final, they had the chance and missed!
Oh yeah, that one was a shocker.
If the driver had just been a bit quicker.

Infact, maybe they should have just used a better driver, they might not have got pushed into the pit.

I actually have noticed a significant increase in the grammatical and spelling quality of Sparkey's posts over the last couple weeks.
I'm going to take credit for that after that confusing conversation with him on the youtube vids thread

Hey, you don't know how many lectures I've given him about the subject.
From what i can tell, everyones had to bring him up on it at some point.
Then again it's no worse than most youtube commentors...

Try again, you are using the glitch which allows npc right/lefts to stickoutside the chasis, right?
Yeah, and i've tried them loads and for whatever reason, i just can't get it to work on this bot  ::2mad

Use nps right/lefts

What? You should be able too, if you can't then just EFFE
For some reason it won't let me place the left npc in that area, even when i delete the ants  :frown:
I think it's just an annoying glitch because the right fits on o.k but the left doesn't without having the wheels basically in the disks.

And i said that i COULD fit the small ds teeth on the disks.
I presume you misread me there because i don't have a clue about how you'd effe wheels  :confused:

Vlads
To keep realism, small (or if possible some large) DS teeth
I've tried the vlads and they don't reach low enoughto touch the ground.
Even the tornado's were anoyingly enough JUST too small.

I can fit the small ds teeth on the discs however.

I like the idea behind that bot, & it looks nice & compact too
However, use better weapons & better wheels
Thanks  :mrgreen:
What wheels would you recomend, i have to use the normal high ground clearance ntc's for realism and space reasons btw.
And i also had an axe on this at one point, but that put it into the heavyweight bracket  :mad:

Right heres a robot that i made a while ago, but i've ofcourse improved it a bit before posting it here.



I wasn't sure whether i should post this, spinners are certainly not my forte (then again i don't really have a forte so screw it)

It seems to battle quite well though.

theres 7 ants in there and it has plastic 3 armour to keep it in middleweight.
