Wait so it's irl? I'm confused.

Realistic Rule - IRL Realism

i saw realistic rule and thought he meant this tourney was going to have both standard and IRL bots

And I posted too quickly before you edited, so we're both guilty :P
Now that I've finished tornado's wedge, can anyone tell me another component to work on? I can't remember which other ones have messed up attachment points.

razer claw

also the razer wedges have weird collision meshes

hahah you're too kind my friend. I really appreciate the kind words, but trust me, i have teams full of unfinished bots too. Sometimes that's just what works, I sit on designs for weeks at a time and then come back and it works out.

If you ever wanna bounce some ideas off each other or need some tips on skinning, im down. I abandoned the skype group for like a month and came back now and its pretty much dead, but i still talk to myself there sometimes.

I was shocked to see a post in my thread, though. I've been cookin in the lab for the past few weeks but havent finished anything. youre making me want to post something lol

Dude, you should write an IRL tutorial or something.

NO I DON'T WANT TO GO ****ING PAINTBALLING WITH YOU JAYDEE
Wassup with your new avatar? I find it funny!

 I'm asking a few people on here anyway, but just curious and maybe a select few of us could find a place to do this:
Have you ever been paintballing, and if yes did you enjoy it?

Calm down Bellic. It's not that hard to just say no.

In West Philadelphia, born and raised,
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool,
And all shooting some b-ball outside of my school.

When a couple a guys, they were up to no good,
Started makin trouble in the neighbourhood.
After one lil' fight my mom got scared and said
"You're movin with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air"
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suit case and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
I put my Walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.

First class, woah this is bad.
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
Is this how the people of Bel Air livin' like?
This might be alright.

About flippers, the larger bursts will be powered up. Not the BSG because it's going to be used for popups a lot and popups will be on top of the food chain as always.

Judge burst needs to be balanced because they are OP, it will probably still be quite powerful and just as light but it will probably need a lot of batteries.

I would not change it and restrict the use of it to pure flippers and weaponed flippers, but yeah. It's grounds for cheating and abuse.

keep in mind here flippers and hammers are quite possibly the only bot types that use judge bursts

flippers can't do damage unless they're weaponed and even then they have very low ADC. Hammers, we don't need to talk about that now do we?

I personally think the 22KG flipper weight is good enough as a nerf, and the fact that sometimes it can STILL havok as heavy as the flipper/wedge may be.

That and, previously built flippers may need to be rebuilt again. I say instead, just make it use Co2 for more realism, AND as a nerf.

i'm just throwing it out there, but at they end of the day, you're making this thing, not me.

So I was thinking, that we only use 20% of DSL parts, mostly because the 80% not included is crap.

So my idea was a DSL 2.1 balance pack, as DSL3 never got off the ground as much as we expected and DSL2 is still mainstream.

Which would mean just a revamped components folder, somewhat like NAR AI but no new bots.

There will be no new components, no removing of components, and no moving of weights to ensure 100% compatibility with DSL bots.

I will balance first the normal DSL components. Then it will be a rebalancing of all the cheatbot2 components so you could build with cheatbot2 components, replica parts, and it will still be legit in the metagame.

I think I will first start releasing weapons, and then motors, batteries, etc. to scale the release and hopefully get feedback.

What do you think ? Is it worth it or should I do something else ? Interested by being able to use any weapon you want, and making more competitive replicas ?

Or maybe I should do the same thing with Stock...

pls don't nerf the judgebursts like seriously pls it's the one thing we flipper builders have

also, would you like what i have so far of the judge burst x2? i mean, it's not much, but...

will skin later

EDIT: skinned


557
very interesting and i like all of the bots and dig the theme youve got going on. themes are fun :)

though im dying to ask, because i dont know a thing about ironforge... since when have ballasts become a relevant item? i see it in a lot of ironforge showcases. they have a use now?

anyways, i like 'em all. keep it up

edit that's an antweight before ballasts?? what?
ironforge is weird

Ironforge has its own weight system where I think 500 KG is a HW or something. It was because the bots couldn't throw other bots around and 123 couldn't make the motors any faster without the, havoking.

The first Four ballast in a bot do not count, I think it depends on weight class tho. Idk.

Can we get a closer look at S**tbox?

Also what is HOLE?

(Image removed from quote.)

French Uppercut, heavily armored (5mm steel) piston-enhanced popup. With FISTS !

NPC fasts, 8 ants, 2 large air tanks, nanana

will try and build something else

Damn could've entered it into Ray rice the tourney if it were DSL

But still, that looks cool af. Which is something I don't always say for standard bots.

Too bad it'll lose to some toothpick with spinning hammers in any tourney
