I didn't want to make eye candy, just a simplistic thing to show the insides. Simple and easy.
I think he means the text is a little small/cluttered.

Yeah, the font can be a little hard to read at times.

This is why I use Comic Sans.
Sure about 90% of the population hates it, but at least its clear and readable.
....Just like so many other fonts out there.

.. Which is why I made this.

got the idea from Scrap's DSL showcase. Does some decent damage, but it can't selfright.

Wedges on top are for some sort of protection (that motor is fragile) and because I got no weight for ramplates.

Update: Super Giga Mecha Nesbitt now has 20cm longer wedges and a plow (uses some extender work), now 4kg heavier. Still cant selfright ;-;

Comic Sans doesn't necessarily = "J-Style splash".
(Though you did copy my method of "randomly including information all over the place" gimmick)
....And if you want a Rocket Powered fist, then put a boxing glove on an infinity piston.

Inf had a really high-quality HW that used that type of weapon system back in the day... Check his showcase for it, it might give you some ideas.

I remember that too.
Except he had the piston set-up further back, and it used a front array of razors.

DSA
5 Razors
Pretty good wedges, can beat Scratchfang 3 on occasion

I really like this bot. Mostly because it looks like something Pwn would make :D

Actually based off something in the Blast from the Past thread XD

cant you put the drive on 20 cms?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #169 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:41:50 PM »

with axle loading I might be able to. Why?

The Ounce · « **Reply #170 on:** August 21, 2011, 04:50:40 PM »

Maybe he thinks the wedges could be longer?

On a side note I think you can use snapper loading to minimize the space between the 2 snappers, and maybe that will give you weight for more stuff.

NFX · « **Reply #171 on:** August 21, 2011, 05:34:20 PM »

The chassis could definitely be shrunk here. I'm surprised that the wedges are as good as they are as well. Maybe you could get an extra razor with the weight saved.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #172 on:** August 22, 2011, 11:53:32 AM »

Actually, I tried it AI'ed with Scrathfang 3's AI, the wedges suck. It's great against HS though.

NFX · « **Reply #173 on:** August 22, 2011, 12:01:03 PM »

Bounty Hunter Syndrome, I'm guessing. That's always a risk with a setup like this.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #174 on:** August 22, 2011, 12:06:26 PM »

yeah.

Also, does anyone know how to chain motors like on the bottom bot in this pic?

090901 · « **Reply #175 on:** August 22, 2011, 12:59:26 PM »

axle loading

Badnik96 · « **Reply #176 on:** August 22, 2011, 01:11:37 PM »

ah, I see how it's done now. Not that it matters.

NFX · « **Reply #177 on:** August 22, 2011, 01:18:48 PM »

It can become unstable, though, because the motors' axles aren't quite precisely lined up. Something to perhaps be wary of, but it can work.

Radar was pretty stable.

Using a T extend you can almost perfectly align the motors, though it may effect invertability .
