Drive looks a bit narrow...any problems with that?

Nice! Maybe move the plow forward you've got the weight.

I dont like the idea of RAD weapons on a MW but it's your bot.

Pwnator · « **Reply #202 on:** August 18, 2009, 08:22:13 AM »

@ Reier - Nope. I didn't have driving problems with the other Hyperbolae, too.

@ RQ - Good idea! Gonna try that out if it can hold the bots easier (especially Fury x_x). And SD's FS (from Inf's tourney) and HS (from DK's tourney) use RADs and they are AWESOME :O.

Erm... I would keep the RADS. It's not bad.

Anyways, I think you're holding your weapon motors from the back snapper. It's too much weight on the extender work. Try attaching the RADS with the front two snappers to see if that is any better (I don't think you're using anything with them).

Maybe make the wedge longer since you're bot is allowed to be 399.9 in RAW, and um... the Iron Spikes only hit from the tip of the weapon so That might not be the best choice (Maces maybe?).

No, Iron Spikes don't have a normal. Anywhere on them does damage.

I love that bot, it looks like a super version of worst way to die 5/5 star bot

Pwnator · « **Reply #206 on:** August 20, 2009, 10:53:10 AM »

Yay.

At first I tried to make a castered hammer setup (like SD's Son of Ingor), but HS have an uncanny way of sliding over the casters and taking away the whole weapon (even with plows on top). So I just recycled Hyperboloid's chassis and this came out:

The only thing I hate about this is that it drives worse than gyrating VS when it takes a big hit. It can't self-right well, but meh. I'm still entering it. :P

Oh, and that match was AIed. :D

Aied G.B. eh?

Pwnator · « **Reply #208 on:** August 20, 2009, 11:04:35 AM »

Yep. I also AIed Pys' team.

And I just realized GB has 15 irons :O

Reier · « **Reply #209 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:19:09 PM »

Which means BFE. :O

Pwnator · « **Reply #210 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:30:01 PM »

BFE? I don't get it. If you're thinking of how I attached the DDT, I just attached an extender at the snapper's secret AP with all the 2 APs pointing upward. I attached the DDT to the frontmost upward AP, and just eFFe'd the plows in. Then I just reattached the black and restacked the CB. :P

Pwnator · « **Reply #211 on:** August 20, 2009, 12:31:41 PM »

Nope. Think of it this way. HPZ is on the baseplate, tribar, then an extender with 2 extenders attached using the side APs. And on those extenders, you got 1 more extender attached to the side AP (1 each). That makes 5 per tip. :P

40757 · « **Reply #212 on:** August 20, 2009, 02:49:14 PM »

The hammer doesn't go far enough.

Pwnator · « **Reply #213 on:** August 26, 2009, 06:02:34 AM »

@ 40757 - Yep. Which is why I changed my mind and will enter another hammer. Don't expect it to be showcased soon, though.

Aaaaaaaaand here's the clamp!

Probably one of my favorite bots of all time. Screw empty space. This is a WIP. Doesn't clamp HSes that well, though (kinda ironic since I built this mainly to beat uber-HSes) but does well against other types except VSes. However, what slightly annoys me is that the HPServo wobbles the Z-Tek (wired to hold the bot down) a lot even when I wired it to go down (goes down, and flies to the back after a light hit. You could see that against its battle against Battlebox (my first clamp trial... AND IT WORKS!). That killing blow sent the Z-Tek wobbling.). As much as I love this bot, I still couldn't AI it. D:

Oh well, I'll be unleashing my new Homage series soon.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #214 on:** August 26, 2009, 06:32:57 AM »

I <3 it lol I really think I should try a clamper sometime.. Saw reference ?

Pwnator · « **Reply #215 on:** August 26, 2009, 06:37:03 AM »

Yep. But I don't like horror movies. The movie just came to my mind when I gave it a random name. XD

JoeBlo · « **Reply #216 on:** August 26, 2009, 07:08:06 AM »

really the Saw movies are awesome :-D horror movies aren't really my thing either but that series is cool, I like the irony at the end of some of them :P

40757 · « **Reply #217 on:** August 26, 2009, 12:57:42 PM »

How about making Paraboloid's hammer all 20 cm long so it adds up longer in length. Still not long enough? Try deleting that mace and curving the hammer.

Pwnator · « **Reply #218 on:** August 27, 2009, 04:08:34 AM »

Couldn't curve the hammer without breaking the rule of 7. I already deleted the mace and used an ice pick instead for a longer arm but it breaks off even faster. O_O

And only one commented on my favorite bot... /wrist

XD
