rnifnuf's Stock Cavalcade of Crap

[Fracture]

Be careful with the angling of the irons; if any of them are touching the ground while ramming they won't do damage.

Oh yeah, that's right

In the mean time, I made a MW HS.

Armor is Plastic because DSA was too heavy, sad face

Meet Mace of Spades, a MW HS that I just made. Its design is based off of a LW HS that I made before it called Rude Bot (coming soon). While building RB, I encountered numerous headaches with the blue snappers, so I built it off of a green one. When I tried to do the same for MoS, I ran into the rule of seven, my archenemy As a workaround, I just used two green snappers, but even this has its problems.

Its kinda like Fury, except worse

Much, much worse.

  Highly destructive, moderate drive
  Plastic armor (what's your excuse?), low battery life, wobbles as it spins even with all 12 maces

Thoughts?

[Pwnator]

It's plastic because you spent too much weight on bursting it. Ideally you should only have a single Snapper II for the whole setup.

It looks pretty clean though, so I still like it.

[rnifnuf]

Ideally you should only have a single Snapper II for the whole setup.

I wish I could, but what is ideal is not always possible, and what is possible is not always ideal. See, I would make a great Chinese philosopher XD

Anyways, I updated Mace of Spades.


Armor is now DSA.

I had to use 2 blue snappers because... RULE OF SEVEN  I'D CHAIN A BUNCH OF RAGE SMILEYS IN A ROW BUT I WOULD LIKELY GET WARNINGIZED FOR IT!

But this is an improvement over the previous MoS. It should be invertible now (the previous one wasn't). Arguably best of all, it lowered the wobblibilityness.

  All-encompassing macey terror, fairly stable, DSA Armor, Invertible (?)
  Has all of the problems that a HS has (slow drive, loses weapons easily, hard to drive, republican, etc.)

Thoughts?

[Pwnator]

Drive is more than fine, actually. (And you could check out some showcases in how to do it with a single snapper)

And that looks solid. Might be a potentially nice SnS hybrid, although see if you can upgrade the drive to Z-Tek+Shinies first (it should still be invertible).

[090901]

IMO putting maces on 2 extenders like that is worse than putting them on one extender just because it seems the extenders get hit so much easier.

[rnifnuf]

Tempus Fugit, eat your heart out.

Armor is DSA.

After an hour of snapper loading, eFFeing, realizing that the setup is not right, random coughing fits, rinsing and repeating, Rude Bot is here!

Its Mace of Spade's little brother, to put it simply. Z-teks, RAD drive, ridiculous stacking, and all of the crap a modern a modern Stock LW HS needs.

You could say that it is the very model of a modern Lightweight Stock HS.

  Everything except drive
  Horrendous drive (really good in theory, but the wheels barely touch the ground so it sucks)

Thoughts?

[Sage]

Can you fix the setup so the wheels touch the ground better?

[rnifnuf]

Can you fix the setup so the wheels touch the ground better?

I can so I did fixed the drivingizer devices thingies (but seriously, I fixed the drive issue)


Armor is still DSA.

The problem before was that the snapper was too high in the chassis, causing the wheels to barely touch the ground, because it was on top of the control board. When I moved the control board to the top of the Nifty, it gave me space in the chassis to move the Snapper down in the chassis and allow the wheels to touch the ground.

The new angle of the ground clearance in the back slightly angles the whole bot forward. Whether this is an advantage or a disadvantage isn't clear, however.

Now it is the very model of a modern Lightweight Stock HS.

  Everything except not invertible
  Not invertible. Also has a case of the wobbles.

Thoughts?

[Sage]

Needs to be invertible >:D

but nice work.


also the  new tempus fugit has a plow. sooo..... i wouldn't say you build the definition of the LW HS :P

has a plow.

a plow.

plow.

What plow?
Armor is Plastic. Now, say hello... to Antempus Fugit, the bot designed to beat the SC4a Tempus Fugit!

Oh how I love non-burst hammers--in exchange for a bit of hammer speed, you can have a fully-working, effective hammer with only a Nifty/Black (Stock) or 3-8 ants (DSL).

I haven't done much testing on this bot; I literally just made it and am showing it right now, October 21, 2013, 10:43pm PDT.

Oh, hi Sage, I didn't see you there. OOPS I put red extenders on it
Lol, jk XD

SUMMARY:

• Name: Atempus Fugit
• Weight class: Lightweight
• Bot type: Hammer
• Armor: Plastic
• 
  • Fairly fast
  • Has a plow of its own
  • Good hammer weapons
• 
  • Plastic armor
  • Has problems with AGOD
  • Cannot drive straight (WHY???)

Thoughts?

[090901]

That is sweet, shame about the AGOD though.

[AlexGRFan97]

Take off the wheels and put them back on again. That might be why it doesn't drive straight.

[Badnik96]

Certainly different, don't think anyone else has tried a spin motor hammer in Stock. Shame about the agod though.

[Mr. AS]

my robot FuZioN was supposed to be a MW torque hammer, kind of like yours, but AGOD forced me to make it a spin-motor popup.
if you attach the HPZ statically (i.e. on a baseplate anchor), the AGOD might (might, as in, no guarantee) subside. i would recommend against actually mounting it on the baseplate, because as i found, its likely to AGOD anyway if its on the baseplate directly.

Take off the wheels and put them back on again. That might be why it doesn't drive straight.

no... the trick is to attach the wheels before you make it asymmetrical. if he just reattaches the wheels right now it will still veer.

[rnifnuf]

What's really strange is that I followed the exact same building procedure as I did for Rude Bot (did I mention that this is actually Rude Bot's chassis?), yet it is still bad at driving. To be fair, it does have a "Made in China" sticker on it.

That is sweet, shame about the AGOD though.

Actually, the AGOD isn't that bad. Perhaps its karma for using red extenders to annoy Sage. But I still say it: AGODDAMNIT

I made something similar in DSL. It should be up by the time you read this post.

[rnifnuf]

Insert clever and witty intro here for this thig. I don't know; I'm bushed and I have to get up at 6am tomorrow for jazz band


Armor is DSA.

Hi my name is rnifnuf and this is Razing the triBar, otherwise known as RttB (he's case-sensitive). None of you have any idea of how much I had to sacrifice for the extra 12 razors.

Wait, so that means...

That's right: Razing the triBar has 48 razors.

It's supposed to be some kind of SnS hybrid like Spin Doctor, but it havoks when it sits and spins . Although, it might be because the weapon motors are all set to spin counterclockwise at the same time.

It doesn't have a second black in it, nor does it have castor armor. Maybe that's why it havoks.

SUMMARY:

• Name: Razing the triBar
• Weight class: Heavyweight
• Bot type: Horizontal Spinner
• Armor: DSA
• Weapon: 48 razor tips
• Battery: 1 black battery
• Drive: 2HPZ with Grannies
• Weapon power: 4HPZ

Advantages:

• Fairly fast
• Loads and loads of razors
• Really fast weapons

Disadvantages:

• No castor armor
• Havok-y and glitcherific
• Maybe... too many razors

Thoughts?

[Virus Bomb]

add some casters for bottom armor.

[Naryar]

Nice, don't like how you made your stabilizers though- they could be lighter

[rnifnuf]

Nice, don't like how you made your stabilizers though- they could be lighter

There are no stabilizatorizinatifiers on Razing the triBar.

My next order of business is to add the four casters that will fit on the bot. Technically 8 will fit under the chassis but I'm only using four because Gabriel Interactive is dumb and forgot to make the casters weigh 3kg instead of 6. In other words... weight constraints

I will get to work on that at some point in time.
