Funny you should mention the direction of the razors. You see, I've tried Pys' theory of "two faces hitting instead of one," but I think that it's nothing more than wishful thinking. In fact, I've tried switching the direction of the razors on R4 and found that the extenders become much more vulnerable, and in turn, effectiveness plummets.

It's not two faces, as the collision is a pyramid, but just more surface area.

The FS (Parasite 3.0, I'm guessing?) looks very schweet. Birds are underrated. <3

I'm gonna miss R4's ears, though. Those were quite effective in keeping HSes away from the bot's top. :P

Can it still do OHKOs? :D

Don't worry, Pwn. R4 isn't dead, and when I do find a way to improve it, it will still have ears :P

And no, no 1HKO's for this one

Ahh, showcase. It has been a while...

Nothing major though, just a couple of HS (that I challenge Sage/the rest of you lot to figure out the setups).

First is (another) rebuild of Skrzak. I have a way to make it more compact, but that leaves the HPZ's poking out the front. And this looks cooler. Redbirds, 1 black, DSA, etc.

And a tiny LW HS. I should be able to give it castor armour once I remove all of the extenders needed for axle loading. It will have a nifty, but at this stage it has 2 pinks because I was too lazy to get the nifty + c-board stack. DSA.

That's all for now. On to the DSL showcase!

this is exactly why I say you need to showcase more :P

Sage · « **Reply #186 on:** June 22, 2010, 05:44:00 PM »

Oh the ridiculous setups people can come up with. With MW and LW designs there's really no rules to how many extenders you need to use or the 7 limit, so the possibilities are actually more. Plus I dunno if it's one snapper or 2.

Sorry R0B0, I can't do it without a hint :P

R0B0SH4RK · « **Reply #187 on:** June 22, 2010, 06:03:44 PM »

Alright, the MW has one snapper mounted sideways and the LW has an axle. GO!

Also, only two comments in my stock showcase, but a bunch in DSL? What has the world come to?

And I post bots for the first time in months and my rep drops xD

System32 · « **Reply #188 on:** June 22, 2010, 07:53:56 PM »

Too bad the LW isn't using HPZ.

Also, I Have an idea for an anti HS device...

Sage · « **Reply #189 on:** June 22, 2010, 08:28:48 PM »

I've been messing around in the bot lab for a while and, although coming up with some really cool setups, haven't achieved yours. Very nicely done R0B0.

sadly it is the movement

heavily becasue there is a severe lack of Stock tournaments right now.. if you cant compete people wont bother building.

still I wuv you R0B0 no matter where you showcase

I'll shift back to Stock after BTTB 2.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #192 on:** June 23, 2010, 01:09:24 AM »

I have had an idea for a stock tournament since KOK.. perhaps its time to put it into practice.

also I think the constant evolution of DSL (NarAI) is what is keeping people interested.. really we need to start pushing the stock AI packs people are making further along by helping out..

Sparkey98 · « **Reply #193 on:** June 23, 2010, 01:48:10 AM »

In my opinion stock is kinda dead. It's more or less just a standalone mod now.

That LW HS must turn reeeeally slowly. Both look nice though.
