Thanks. New and improved.

Sadly, that is as many spikes I can put on there with out hacking. But Its still one of the most powerful bots I ever built. Its a close to unstoppable as I can get.

Pros:
Spins fast.
Powerful weapon.
"Drifts".

Cons:
Can't stop spinning. This is the major flaw with it. When it loses, its always the result of this. Some of you might get lucky and this happens, but this happens rarely.

PS, I'm still wondering how many of you fell for "Batman on Drugs".

Well not bad, but THAT rule

Quote from: BBEANS Rule 3

Your bot must be able to show controlled (not random) movement at any time during the match, for as long as its drive system remains undamaged.

kills you.

Plus i would use something else than irons on this.

if its using a AI, it will drive forward just a bit, which counts, because it showed it at any time during the match.

I forgot about that rule, but it can move when it spins, but not that well.

Teh bot must show controlled movement at ANY time (if their drive train is stilll undamaged), precisely! Not just once.

So for a TSnS it is, for the major part of the fight, uncontrolled movement.

Or it can be controlled but we don't know much about that glitch...

imo maces work better than irons on trinitys

Good old melty-brain is helping me here, I can move froward and backward slightly, but its not fast, but just controllable.

@Scrap: Sorry, but the spikes are just too close to the ground. Maces just make it a THS, I can't control that. Its also why I am not using shineys.

@All: If it is rejected, I will remake it with static arms. It wont be as cool, but it might win some rounds.

My bro decided to enter a bot for BBEANS5. This is his entry. Any resemblence to Nastyser's return in unintentional.
Can't spell the name. Note that he loves Warhammer40000.

He will enter as Bloxace14. (Or Snacha. I don't care, he could call him self lord of the Hippos for all I care.) This is not my bot, I only helped. Any advice must go to him, not me.

Tell him to add more spikes, or maybe bigger wheels for invertability.

I deiced to leave Tempestman out, and put in Crashman.EXE in. Who is Crashman.EXE? This guy.

Yup. I'm going to enter a near carbon copy of NWB. One black. DSA. Don't know what to do with the last 120 kigs.

Somebody · « **Reply #151 on:** January 19, 2009, 02:03:57 PM »

Maybe more batteries?

Reier · « **Reply #152 on:** January 19, 2009, 02:18:06 PM »

If you can, you should probably try to stack a black or 2.
Maybe some extra armor on the front & sides would help a bit also.

Naryar · « **Reply #153 on:** January 19, 2009, 03:36:36 PM »

I'm glad someone uses jugglers.

Stack another black, and add irons like the real NWB.

R1885 · « **Reply #154 on:** January 19, 2009, 04:02:46 PM »

Updated:

Razors replaced with irons. Also, stacked blacks are in there.

sweet clone.

Somebody · « **Reply #156 on:** January 19, 2009, 04:22:37 PM »

You still have more weight. you can put on more spikes on the spinners.

Naryar · « **Reply #157 on:** January 19, 2009, 04:31:50 PM »

Just make it a true clone...

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #158 on:** January 19, 2009, 05:40:53 PM »

Why not just import the damn thing and change the name...

Naryar · « **Reply #159 on:** January 19, 2009, 10:18:46 PM »

Not allowed. You must built your own bot.

But the rules doesn't mentions "no clones".
