I liked Pendulum, their rock mix-ins in the later stuff was good, especially how they played it live. Was a shame about the same beat in every single song though... the same one that appears to be in 90% of popular songs my sister listens to. Bleh.

https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/8459AI-Chart-2.3.rarPhiletbabe made it a fair while back, I've always found it invaluable as a tool and reference, even when I brushed up my AIing to make PokAImon. Also, SURPRISE ANNOUNCEMENT. Left this last minute to make everyone think :P I would like your bots to have a THEME. Even if it's just related names, I would like a theme, complete with Team Name and, if you want, motto. There may be awards at te end for creativity, even with this stuff, remember :3

Well this is all straightened out. It will be green-ticked in the next day or so, then 31 slots will be available for 2 weeks. Get ready! And PLEASE, help me get it started much faster, and AI your bots! If you don't know how, it's a great reason to learn an invaluable RA2 skill - the AI chart is how I learnt to AI, I can drop that to anyone who needs it.

Ewewewew that vs. Why the MASSIVE discs in the stabilisers, when you could use a few flipper segments/hex plates? Also that disc protecting the motor is only protecting part of the motor, if any popup comes at that, they'll find a way to hit it. Also steel skirts?
Changes you could make after reducing weight... protect back motors, improve armour, use DSL bars not steel skirts for stabilisers, maybe put plows on the midpoints of them to beef them up. And if you really want, improve the beaters, I guess.

Do you know how to use alternative attachment points? When you click an item in the botlab, look in the preview window and you should see, on certain components, some 'screws'. Clicking one will let you attach the component using that point. You can use this to raise your perm in 2 ways. Using the other points, as GS suggested, or like I do on my VS (vertical spinners) using a multi-extender and flipper segment - check my VS in THIS PHOTO. :3

Yeah, I'd say custom to that. Just to be on the safe side.

Why 2 dual axle eteks? You crazy.
Anyway, I'd recommend saving weight by using either flipper segments or DSL Bars in place of the steel extenders you seem to be using, and use multi-extenders as previously mentioned. If you want to keep the kind of style it has, I'd make the discs smaller and use larger teeth - maybe cutting teeth or something (inb4 NORMALLLZ). Maybe just remove the middle motor arrangement and use a Perm 180 or whatever they are - they're pretty powerful and you could mount on both sides (but it wouldn't be IRL due to the axle having no support).
Have a play around with a few of the ideas I/the other guys mentioned and see what you think, you can always get advice from one of us if need be :D

I think you've got some potentential, just dont let these bastards suck all the originality out of you with their generic advice.
This. It looks super cool, even if it's not 'efficient'.

So I'm just gonna bring this back up. What did Sparkey actually do to make you lot get all 'trolly' on him this time? As far as I can see, you lot just thought 'Oh let's have a go at him.' and went for it.
He was being very rude and discriminatory to pretty much everyone, showing no one any respect. He often insulted people with Asperger's Syndrome or diabetes, in various different ways. Oh, and he threatened a mod with anthrax, pretended to forget it, and then caused a sh**storm with it all over again
..Correct me if I'm wrong but he hasn't been on the forum in ages. So Purse just bought all the old stuff up for no reason. I know he did all that bad stuff but to bring it all back up just to 'troll' him or have a go at him, it's equally stupid on the attacker's front.
