It's not AGOD if you can fix it.

That is all.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Eh? I'm not talking about fixing it, I'm talking about preventing it.

I don't see how you can prevent it if you don't even know it has agod until you test it.

Theres no way to prevent AGOD because you never know when it's going to happen.

STDP



I'm suprised how people thought this bot was uneffective agianst most other bots.

I'll say, against most HS is sucks, but compared to Rammers, popups, VS, Hammers, SnS... Well, every other bot type, it completely obliterates them. Reason? Velocity. This bot exploites the fact the Trinity piston glitch goes fastest with a light load. The lack of weapons means a faster weapon in total, and that means it is more powerful than it ever could be. The only downside is that HS (The obly bots with weapons positioned in a place where the main weapon won't be as effective.) can easily damage the extenders.

I also like this bot as I made it in paint, and it is my best splash.

Chaining drive motors doesn't work.  It's just a waste of weight.  You would be much better off using 4WD with 4 separate drive motors.  You have the weight for another set of wheels.

Bravo for attempting something different, but I remain dubious of that bot's effectiveness until I see some battle shots, or better yet a video.

Does Gamma do a full Trinity glitch where the pistons fly out of their sockets, or is it a "partial" Trinity where they just stay extended, and the bot remains controllable?

Partial. I'll make it again and show shots.

Edit: I'm so happy. I reamade it To beat Gigafrost AI bots and it, in a sheer turn of irony, has became even more powerful. Three irons still, one black, So fast the wheels fly out of the hinges and now capable of one hit KO's. (Didn't screen the One hit KO.)

Umm, Emperor much?



Crap is a new bot type I thought of, it's called a SS (Side Spinner). Like a VS but Sideways. Made to trap bots, mostly. The multiple version's of vowel are what I need help with. Which one do you think is best for RAW 2? The Origonal flavour is the bot in BBEANS4, as is Constanant. I've got other versions of Constanant I'll put up later.

Hmm. Definitely not the razor one.

I'd say the original one because it should have the higher turnspeed of all, but isn't the bot a little unstable with that? (I tried a similar setup with Corona 3, and it failed)

So either the motor one (lower spinner = better against popups), either the original one.

Switching between two rows, weapons and wheels. Any opinion on the best one here for Raw 2?

Well for one thing it actually saves weight to put your drive motors on the baseplate rather than use all those extenders and Snapper II's.

Assuming the same chassis, though, the armor one looks the best.

Also, it's spelled "Consonant" not "Constanant".  Do you want me to correct the misspelling for BBEANS?

Wouldn't Crap be considered a face spinner?
