It doesn't drive straight, but the AI will fix that.

does ai'ing bots automatically fix steering problems or do you have to use a special kind of .py or something ?

Nah, I think the AI just auto-corrects the steering.

More awesome :D

Since people have been posting LW VSes and stuff and I've always wanted to top Scrappy's one, I made this:

Plastic, Nifty, and a 100cm disc. I doubt this is better than Scrap's, but you just can't say no to a weapon system this big.

Also, the first version looked like this:

Will attempt to build a version with an external motor, though.

Looks effective, but kind ugly, in my view. How often do the squaries get taken off?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #1225 on:** June 10, 2012, 10:16:01 AM »

Squaries? XD

also it's a cool design- owait it's a LW? in that case it's awesome.

Pwnator · « **Reply #1226 on:** June 12, 2012, 06:25:57 AM »

kinda sorta fixed it

And it now has a 120cm disc. Still have to find a lighter drive and stabilizer setup, though.

It's like a LW alien queen !

That looks like a DSL bot, but with stock parts.

Love the monstrously oversized weapon.

Gonna try making a MW version of that, meanwhile here's what I made when I tried to give Flapjack my own twist:

Those are 4 stacked pinks, which should be fine because Ninja drains its power faster than this. The wedge is on par with Flapjack's.

NFX · « **Reply #1230 on:** June 15, 2012, 08:07:35 AM »

Looking very nice indeed. I'm sure I tried something like this, and people said it was too small. I can't really tell how steep the wedge is, though, that might just be the camera angle.

I just used the LW poker's chassis. :P

bored

A glass cannon of extreme proportions. I mean, a BW rammer can easily take out one of the stabilizers in one hit, and a BW rammer can easily be thrown to a wall if it misses.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #1233 on:** June 21, 2012, 01:07:28 AM »

Looks awesome but maybe a little too much glass and not enough cannon...

Might be better off with something more like my Red Sky at Morning.

Also the popup is so tiny!! But does that make it good? Near as I can tell it's the same as Nale, but smaller, with less battery power and 1 extra razor.

Was about to enter Scarve to See No Evil until I realized it was showcased. ._.

One of my exams got postponed due to inclement weather, so here's something I made while waiting for my other games to finish downloading lol

DSA, largest piston and stuff, with an extra 9kg I have no idea where to spend on. From the skin, you should've noticed by now that this is an attempt to improve MINIMUM. And I have absolutely no idea whether it worked or not. And after a couple of test runs I just learned why Inf made the chassis so long and convoluted.

So I guess this is actually a downgrade o_o

So why did you called it Autodidact when it's quite clearly a ripoff ? Ironic name ?

I've learned that the only bot where a small chassis is truly better than a larger one is HS. Anything with wedges loves the stability of the larger chassis, baseplate-mounted drive, etc.
On HWs at least.

And MW's. You seriously misunderstand how more varied the MW tournies are.

Being smaller makes it much easier for HS's to hit drive motors or wheels. It's just not really that good a trade off.
