Nah. It's too wobbly and too havok-y. :P

Besides, that was just an experimental bot. Force Field and Detonator are far better than Volvox. :P

Our school forced all of us to enter a 5-day quarantine! So expect a few more bots. :D

I have 2 36HSs. AC, and another called Pandemonium.

Pandemonium is set up like yours (I think), not Pyscs, but I use an icepick not another mace because it keeps bots slightly further away.

You got this building thing down, no doubt.

And do you really go to school in the Phillippines?

Yep. Our classes start at June and end in March. You guys probably have the longest break from all the other nations. :P

And Volvox uses Pys' weapon setup, but I think he attached the extender using the initial APs and the side APs for the drive while I use the opposite.

Oh, and expect a R0B0-inspired piston popup soon. >:)

...I haven't showcased any piston popups though. Do you mean that it'll have the antennae that I like to use (like on R4?)?

He may be confusing you with me...Cause i do the weird piston-hybrid stuff.

But off topic on the school topic, it might not be that different after all, considering we start in August and end in June. I ended June 18th this year and start August 31st.

Ooh. XD

Oh well, now that you've said it, this becomes more of a R0B0-Inf-inspired piston popup. :P



I originally intended to use Parabola's setup, so I named it Forty-Six & 2. And as I discovered, it was too powerful for its own good. It can do 1HKOs indeed, but when it misses, the pistons make the bursts glitch out and the extenders fall off due to the hard damage done by the ground. Freaky. o_o

Looking good. Personally, I don't like how you attached the drive motors (seems like a pretty costly option if looking at weight used) but i like it other than that. Im guessing that's three blacks, which is fine. How are the wedges? How does it do against HS?
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

I know the space management sucks. :P

I intended to use Parabola's setup, but I was too lazy to rebuild the chassis when I realized the setup won't work. But for a prototype, it can get under RPB and Tempest Exterminator, so I'm quite happy with it. :D

As for HS however, they remove the brackets almost instantly when both make contact, making the burst motors VERY exposed. But if the brackets stay on, it can easily pin them to a wall and start stabbing. XD

Looks great. I don't really see how that setup is like Parabola's (you have the snappers reversed), but I really like it. Trim the chassis down even more so you may be able to have ram plates instead of bracket wedges.
 
Also, how many razors?

It has 6 razors. And yeah, I wanted to reverse the snappers so it wouldn't look too much of a clone. I was too lazy to rebuild the prototype, but it'll be done soon. :D

That's an issue, use two separate buttons for pistons&bursts.

That's weird. What I did was just make another 'Fire' button with the same keyboard trigger. I never had a Havok from that (yet).

Great bot.  I imagine it would be even more deadly as AI, since you could time the weapon firing to consistent precision.

I would say ditch the caster armor and use ram plates instead though, and use the extra weight to beef up the stoppers in front of the DDT's, since that part of the bot will be taking much more of a beating from HS than the front.  Maybe use a row of spikes instead of bracket wedges.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

Well what do you know, it Havoked. And once it Havoks, it couldn't stop Havoking in the next fights. o_O

I followed what Inf did and it slightly worked. It does Havok, but rarely. :D

Too bad I'll have to rebuild the prototype next week (stupid teachers emailing us crazily long questionnaires at the last minute). >.<

But I DO have an semi-original design coming up. Expect a piston popup based on High Tolerance. >:)
