Actually I don't think less drive would be a good idea... seeing how 1WD bots tend to suck.

In what way? They hardly sacrifice much mobility but gain extra weapons/armour

I can see plenty of spinup time problems with more weapons which only add to the chances of them being beaten by rammers. Add to that a relative lack of controlled movement (although this is still a dubious subject due to Ai's and the realism of them and the suchlike) and they're just not that much better.

More Armour is fair, but won't provide a considerable advantage.

Compare the movement of bots in my DoD matches. Dark Void 2 often moves faster that its 2WD counterparts.


Anyway, back with the bot, can't you get DSA on that?

Oh, I remember that. I see your point about mobility, however spinup time is still a problem; adding more armour seems like a more obvious advantage than lots of weapons on one HP Z-tek.

Well i'll be damned, nearly been a year already? Well it's time to dust this thing off I guess

Asymmetrical, generic, weirdly skinned, everything you need for my average bot

Nice CB/Nifty stack. Is the wedge any good?

[Naryar]

it's big

[Fracture]

It's...big?

Fixed

Anyway the chassis wedge looks like it could use some lengthening. Shorten the wedge or remove a razor if you have to.

[Mr. AS]

dont really have a good view of how shallow it is

also alot of empty space with that setup

Wedge is pretty decent, out wedges the restocked Scout and thats good enough for me
I am aware of the empty space and the steep chassis wedge, I was gonna spend some more time fixing that but the collision meshes decided to not cooperate and not let me put anything where I wanted. Just felt like getting a bot out there as i'm making my return
