Title: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Daemon on June 26, 2010, 12:55:07 PM
Well, I decided to start my own showcase.

Any ideas how to improve it?

Replace the square extenders with round ones.  Both have the same health, and the round ones are lighter.

Also, I don't think those spikes jutting out of the sides are going to help much.

Don't use pinks on HW. Use blacks. This bot needs 2 blacks. Also, use snappers for wedges.

There is no space for this.
It has 1 black.

Then rebuild the chassis. Don't be how I used to be with the chassis, if it needs rebuilt do so. Plus, it seems kinds sloppy and even the caster armour is uneven.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Virus Bomb on June 26, 2010, 02:10:28 PM
just stack a black in.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Sparkey98 on June 26, 2010, 02:11:35 PM
Oh, shouldn't anyone say that's at least exceptionally good for a first post bot?
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: G.K. on June 26, 2010, 02:12:14 PM
Do you really think that that's a first bot?
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Sparkey98 on June 26, 2010, 02:19:47 PM
First bot we've seen from him.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on June 26, 2010, 05:43:17 PM
Nice bot. I have no different advice from the other people, but it needs burst wedges.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Clickbeetle on June 26, 2010, 07:02:45 PM
One more piece of advice: I would angle the plows the other way so there's a wide opening in the front.  As it is now, they could block the weapon.  With the plows the other way they would help feed bots toward the center.


And it's also a good start to a bot.  Good weapons and drive, good space management.

 Good wedges, but still poor backup's  defence.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on June 27, 2010, 08:11:14 AM
Not bad, I would use DDT's for the wedges and plows instead of bracket wedges.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: JoeBlo on June 27, 2010, 08:47:55 AM
lol if you going to tell him to use heavier things then at least tell him how to free weight

its some funky extender work, I think making a chassis larger to contain all 4 drives would be better

Post by: The Ounce on June 28, 2010, 05:53:47 AM
Shorten the chassis, and if I were you, I would exchange some pistons for more weapons, and get rid of the Y-connectors.
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Naryar on June 28, 2010, 06:32:46 AM
Should be invertible

And do what ounce said about the Y's.

You are quite skilled already :D
Title: Re: Daemon's Showcase
Post by: Badnik96 on June 28, 2010, 06:34:17 AM
It's cool-looking, to say the least.

Yeah, it should be invertable and what Ounce said about the extenders.

You've been lurking for a while though.

A couple of the bots in the tourney remind me of a couple of pivanov's bots, he used to be a member on the old forums then he might not have found the new forum.

:O Those are awesome intros.  I daresay they rival the new BBEANS intros for coolness and fancyness.  The only way I can think of to do that would be to take video of the bots in the bot lab, paste them into the splash screen frame by frame, and turn it into a .gif animation which you could import into Movie Maker.  Which would explain why the intros are so short.



Are these all your bots?

No, it's not *.gif, all files are *.wmv or *.avi
