I wanted to do something new, so I tried to build a popup.
Not good. It does decent damage but it has some space left, it's terribly underweight and has no wedges...
I just couldn't figure out how to fix all that.
But here it is:

cool shape and skin! I've heard Chaind drive sucks, though

Larrain · « **Reply #162 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:16:14 PM »

The wheels are overlapping the hpz's next to them, there's no chaining.

I liked how the skin turned out as well ;P
It's actually the Scratched Metal texture tinted Lime.

oh, I thought they were chained AND overlapped

did you stake the blacks?

Natef · « **Reply #164 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:18:53 PM »

Put a small wedge in there.

Oh, no! I forgot! XD
Well, tried but failed and got tired and made the weapons instead.

I don't know how do I put a wedge, no kind of snapper will fit

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #166 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:24:32 PM »

I've seen it sucsessfully done with a baseplate anchor and an extender :P

cou'nt you barey a snapper|| in the batt?

Larrain · « **Reply #167 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:26:18 PM »

It's not as effective. Well that's something, at least.

Wait.. snapper inside a black? Is that possible?

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #168 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:29:12 PM »

just like when you stack inside an HS

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #169 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:37:57 PM »

Stop listening to Sparkey. Almost everything he has said is wrong.

You have the drive perfect, stack at least another battery(2 or 3 should be fine), a wedge on a baseplate is absolutely useless. You need toput it on a snapper or DDT

That is also WAY too much weight for a snapper. Either upgrade to DDTs or get more snappers with less weapons. Generally, the amount of razors you should put on a snapper is maybe 2-4 and 5-8 on a DDT.

and if there's no space for a snapper, looks like you need to rebuild it.

In response to the retarded post below, I said ALMOST everything was wrong. You were right about chained drive but wedges on an anchor is just fail. And my ass you've seen anchor and wedge done effectively.

Go ahead and listen to Sparkey if you want. Just want you to know he is probably the least respected person on this forum and notorious for giving awful advice.

R188S said chained drive sucks, I'm just listening. And I've seen ACAMS and Starcore pull it off with a bassplate and an extender

Ignore him saying to Ignore me.

Quoted for gross understatement.

@Sparkey: P.S. Its R1885, and baseplate.

Larrain · « **Reply #172 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:50:45 PM »

About stacking the blacks he was right too.
Oh and I missed this:

I was sure this couldn't be done. Well it doesn't matter now.

I know chaining motors for drive doesn't work. And wedges on anchors either.

Now @ Scrap Daddy: Actually, about the drive I noticed the bot is prone to turn right.
I didn't think of the weight on snapper thing.. I just put the weapons on it "automatically" :P
I also thought of rebuilding it.. will do tommorrow maybe. Also if I want to upgrade the snappers I will have to rebuild anyways.

I tried to do the thing with the snapper inside the battery but it's so wobbly it won't get under anything easily XD

Offtopic: Oh no.. lunch at time for Pagoda.. I will fail once again..

Sparkey, stop assuming you're right and Scrap is wrong. And your sig is wrong. The bot is called ErupTion.

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #174 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:55:49 PM »

dude, AVALALANCHE is the least respected. And that does not mean crap. TDS was a and he still built good

[/offtopic]

anyway, the bassplate thing was just a thought :/

@G.K. that's my bots spelling, I changed it, I was not assuming beng right, just thoughts troll.

It's supposed to be, but isn't.

Sparkey, you don't say who is the least respected around here. It is the community's choice as a whole. Leave TDS out of this. He doesn't represent every not respected person. And spell baseplate right.

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #178 on:** February 25, 2010, 12:59:41 PM »

then neather does SD

OK I'm not SD so I'll reply.

YOU are the least respected. Doesn't matter if TDS built good. He has nothing to do with this. And you can't build that good. (Yes I have checked your showcase).

Its basEplate.
GK isn't a troll. He has done a lot of nice things for people here and is one of the nicest members here.

PS: SD is one of the most respected members here as well.
