I like it. It wouldn't hurt to add at least a bit of a slope to the front. A thin rammer or piston would munch that thing up. If possible, moving the casters closer to the center would help, too.

Actually a sloped front would probably hinder that design.  You don't want bots to slide up on top of the piston, you want them held in front and repeatedly punched.

Good bot.  I wonder if there could be a better place for the ice picks though.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on May 18, 2008, 08:38:16 PM
the ice picks help stabilize the robot, it tended to slide becuase of its speed but with them attached its much more maneuverable

What if you shortened the wedge's extenders and put 20cm's on sideways and put irons across the front gap or something for protection, then put the wedges on the 20cms?

Wow. One of the coolest robots I've seen in quite a while. I think the 4wd is pretty sweet, and so is the caster armour bottom. My only worry about it is the fact that razors are brittle and don't have very much HP. Is that a problem at all, or does it kill too fast?
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase

Pyscolone, you allways surprise me with your very original designs. I like it.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Naryar on June 03, 2008, 05:35:23 AM
WTF! 917 damage with that weapon ??

Anyways I like it, bust I would put iron spikes too. Nice idea about the casters protecting the weapon motors.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Madiaba on June 03, 2008, 06:26:33 AM
Pys, nice and original.  Could you show some inside pics?  Don't know it's weight..... but, what is/are the advantage(s) of the 4WD?    In case it loses a motor/wheel is one I can think of....  Whatever its advantages, I was also thinking of instead bolstering its weaponry for increased offense....
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: kill343gs on June 03, 2008, 08:08:13 PM
I would go with irons, they hit better and have a longer reach.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on June 03, 2008, 08:42:51 PM
Irons in all honest truth wont do much more. Also switching the rubbers to shiny will save about 20 kgs, thats not enough for all irons by any means.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Clickbeetle on June 07, 2008, 09:15:42 PM
Interesting design, with the spinners high up instead of as low as possible like most VS's.  How well does it work compared with a low VS?

Reminds me of Shriek 2, but with more reliable weaponry and drive.  I can imagine it must be good.  Are the drive motors mounted on servos, so you can raise and lower the chassis to adjust the weapon height?  It doesn't look like it, but it could be a cool feature.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on June 08, 2008, 11:04:36 AM
The high up HPs only downfall is that on hard rams the whole bot occasionally tips forwards, other than that it works just as a low placed VS would do. The drive is placed on a snapper atm to save weight and for more connnection points, that feature your talking about however, I may try.

I'm assuming that there are two black batteries and two stacked snappers in there and it has DSA. It's a brilliant setup, but there is no way that that cam be invetible. One of the coolest looking bots none the less.

"En-maciated".

Nice... But my bot 'Uber spin' have the same setup with this difference all 8 weapon motors are stacked in exactly one... And dont say i steal from you... My bot like this is builded before this one (maybe) :biggrin:
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on June 21, 2008, 11:59:21 PM
this bot doesnt even have 8 HPs.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Cooker on June 22, 2008, 12:47:54 AM
The most compact I ever saw. It should be around 700 kg, if I didn't mess up with my calculation.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: R0B0SH4RK on June 22, 2008, 02:18:33 AM
No, it should be up around 780-790. You might have enough weight to get granny guards on to make it invertible, but you'd need 12 extra kg's that I'm not sure you have...

The thing just looks so damn cool!
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Venko on June 22, 2008, 02:25:08 AM
Its posible to be invertable...
You will see my bot like this in my showcase soon...

Psyc. see how bad is someones to spam your showcase?
Then dont do it on others, like mine for example...
So all lets end this!
BTW Infy... About my calculations of your weird American dimensions, you must be about 1,92 m tall and weight 86 kg. Hummm... I dont know well your age but here are two possibility: you are lieing about these your dimensions or you are a very rare mutant... Let me explain why. Nowdays im 1,92 m tall and weight about 125 kg (clean musculature, no fat weight). When i was teen age (like you supose to be now...) i was about 1,8... m and something tall. Even i was not that tall like you saying for your age... And about the weight... This 86 kg on 1,92 m high means you must be "only skeleton with some skin" or you didnt calculate well in your lie how you must weight. But dont worry Infy, even for my dimensions Naryar call me troll, so forget it man... At least Naryar can call me Orc, they are taller and stronger :lol:

3 Blacks, its not a final version its just a proto. Its perfectly stable, very fast and as the bot glides up the first discs the speed of the bot lifts it onto all 4 discs damaging the bottom of the bot like a hot knife through butter.

Just an axle-loaded axle, and when the axle of the axle-loaded axle is out, you put a 20cm sideways and the motors on it...

Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on June 15, 2009, 04:42:06 PM
HPs are indeed flat against the ground. Due to the HPs being attached to the axle its fully invertible, as well as the tribars almost always stay horizontal for very easy killing

It's actually a pretty simple setup, and not even the best because it isn't invertible. (I think it's one of the coolest looking though.)

The maces look so good on that :P.

Only setup i can think of involves 2 stacked snappers, the extender we see on the top is actually 2 overlapped ones and they hold the drive, and the two others are inside the batts, overlapped as well, but their side AP's point in 2 opposite directions (that is left and right) and these hold the drive motors.

I might switch out the two maces for 4 razors. For the weight, remove the 2 bottom castors.

Popup hammer.

Nice touch, using face spinners to solve the problem of the inherently steep wedge you got when building a caster armored wedge, plus if the razors break it's a backup weapon.

Experimenting with the Flail SnS idea, came out to be really good; just needs a rebuild. Everything you can see except for the axle stacked into the nifty.

I really like the 1st popup, cool and looks effective. Are the icepicks adding much? Could you take them off and use the weight for rubbers?
On the VS, how good are the wedges? Would it be any more protected if you took off the razors on the wedges an put more casters on the bottom?
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: Pwnator on August 06, 2009, 04:15:58 AM
Ohohoho, moar botz for meeee to clone. XD

I think the ice picks are for maneuverability (I just based it on his poker). And I still don't get how he got the shinies exactly at the wedges' height. D:

I can't figure out how you mounted the drive on the S&S (might have something to do with the axle in the nifty, but I'm not sure), the first popup looks sweet, the second looks to have a better wedge, and the VS is really cool too.
Title: Pyscolone's Showcase
Post by: pyscolone on August 06, 2009, 04:12:23 PM
@Sage - The square chassis is the only kind that will keep the bot symmetrical. Whatever I do rebuild the bot, it becomes unstable no matter how perfectly center I place the components. The wedges are alright on High Tolerance II but I'm sick of Snapper II's terrible wedges.

@Reier - Icepicks are wheelguards, and also no need to add rubbers because Snapper II wedges suck either way; ground clearance won't matter much. On HT2 the razors are there to stop all bots from even getting close to my chassis.

@R0B0 - The drive is indeed attached to the axle in the middle, making only the chassis move while spinning.

Just to make sure everyone's on the same page (literally), he's talking about this (https://gametechmods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=364&page=10).

I would consider it to be a glitch because the chassis spins instead of the drive motors but I wouldn't call it NCR's glitch because its been done before (Volatile Partisan being one of the more famous bots using this glitch (even if it was for a different reason) and I believe that it was used before that too).

Way to be creative with the chassis.  And yet at the same time, it's functional--you need far less casters to protect the front than if it was a traditional flat surface.  More people should do that more often.

I got it and tried navigating my files, but wasn't really sure what I was looking for. Found old splashes and skins but I cant recall the programs I needed to open the .bot files or even how to download the game. I'm an old wrinkly man now who cant figure out the interwebs. If someone could point me in the right direction maybe tonight I'll D/L the game.
