Some suggestions to point the builder in the right direction would be advisable.

So i'm gonna treat him like some total newfag who can't think for itself what extender work would be advisable ?

If the builder had any idea on how to make the extender work cleaner and save weight, they would have built it that way.

You are aware that other stuff than efficiency go through the head of a builder when building, right ? Like boredom, will to finish a bot quickly, forgetting stuff, etc ?

i mean look at that : https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/246392012-09-03_00005.jpg

I'm figuring Sparkey has more than enough experience to know how good extender work is done, but isn't making good EW for some reason, so i'm just pointing at the bad extender work and say "fix it on your own"

Sure I could give him a more detailed post, but I figured he's smart enough to figure it on his own and therefore get more experience than simply copying stuff you're asked to do.

I'm just saying I've been doing this a long time and my extender work still looks like ass half the time

wat

It looks like you just deleted the bottom T connector but somehow kept the drive in the same place. I can't figure out how it's attached now.

Also, the iron spike is gone but nothing is added in its place? The goal of saving weight is usually to do something with it...

The cambered wheels are a nice touch though. Should effectively distinguish it from Le\/eL if you get a plow on it.

The wheels are le\/itating...nah I put them each on a Baseplate anchor.

Mr. AS · « **Reply #163 on:** September 13, 2012, 02:16:39 PM »

yes agreed, try to work towards enough weight for a plow

So I was planning on putting a plow on the HS and then I accidentally built this thing:

and it does surprisingly well!

The lack of a KO in the above shot is a total fluke, I had about one sh** away from killing him, but the battery life was starting to run down, so I wasn't moving as fast as I should have been.

well here's this thing re-posted I guess

Jamin · « **Reply #166 on:** September 26, 2012, 02:27:58 AM »

soooooo I started experimenting with possible robobobibble babble zone entries and I created this sort of weird flail thwacker bot type thing I don't even know

Interesting chassis shape :P what are it's specs?

Jamin · « **Reply #168 on:** September 26, 2012, 02:38:16 AM »

123.8 kgs and 1 pink

Jamin · « **Reply #169 on:** September 26, 2012, 03:05:59 AM »

It beat 1/100th scale replicas of Beatlebros bots, so thats good right? :>

oh and if I spin in place for a moment and then drive strait it can actually "charge" the flail and get it to spin and hit pretty hard without having to sit and....spin.

Try it against Mini - Flaming Whizzer and Mini - Backyard Ripper.

That happens with horizontal axles, good luck AI'ing that way though :)

Naryar · « **Reply #171 on:** September 26, 2012, 07:59:53 AM »

Looks like it lacks the reach and power to succeed in aw's...

also both of the bots you fought don't seem to threaten a low SnS at all, considering how high their weapons are. Especially the mini Seism 16.

Is flaming Whizzers blade on an RAD or an Axle?

Axle, I believe it's the most advanced weapon yet on an AW seeing as the best AW rammers also have only 4 razors.

Jamin · « **Reply #176 on:** September 26, 2012, 12:53:33 PM »

great now you people got me playing this game again

wanted to try out a sort of free spinning axle hs type bot, still experimenting with robiblble babble zone entries although I might just go with spitttttoon.

ianh05 · « **Reply #177 on:** September 26, 2012, 01:03:37 PM »

With axle HS bots you need front protection as the weapon is so random in it's positioning and often leaves the front of your bots open to attacks, the exception is if you can get 3-4 weapons on different sides of the axle's extender(s) like Mini - Flaming Whizzer and Triforce as the have weapons pretty much always at the front of the bot.
