It looks very similar to a bot I built quite recently. I think I'd pointed the SnapperII the other way, which explains how I was able to get DSA and an extra razor on the front. I would definitely try to get DSA on it, and protect the motors somehow. Even having them inside the chassis would be alright.

Beats Tempus Fugit 75% of the time. (1 loss in the 4 battles I did.)

V4 or V3?

I'm almost certain one of the wheels is higher than the other on that bot.. I might just be going crazy though

You're correct. But it still works perfectly fine, same as the similar bot I built like this one.

Ah right, I was wondering if the asymmetrical wheel setup would've hindered the bot in any way but RA2 physics to the rescue I guess

Planning to enter a 2nd tourney (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,12001.0.html) with a 2nd cheap ass bot.

Video of the spinning speed (Won't be uploaded by the time this is posted)

Mr. AS · « **Reply #206 on:** October 29, 2012, 03:39:33 PM »

so its basically squ}{d and kpinga but with more empty space and weight wasted on heavier wheels.

Badger · « **Reply #207 on:** October 29, 2012, 03:46:06 PM »

Yup. Well, I haven't seen squ}{d but I based it on kpinga.

BEAR CLAWS AND MACES

Badger · « **Reply #209 on:** October 29, 2012, 03:48:41 PM »

I would, but the only way to get them on (That I can see) is via eFFe, and I can't spin the extenders in the botlab.

Enigm@ · « **Reply #210 on:** October 29, 2012, 03:51:08 PM »

good luck turning that into a pop up

Badger · « **Reply #211 on:** October 29, 2012, 05:23:37 PM »

I'm not planning on turning it into anything, other than updating it to improve it.

It's people like you who ruin tourneys. Instead of entering for fun, with the offchance to win, you enter a cheap ass bot that's highly likely to win and kill all of the fun of the tourney and make the hosts life dull.

I hope you're happy.

I can always enter my FSnS to kill his.

Razors stand no chance against bearclaws in a de-weapon fight, and the way it is set up is just asking for the extenders to break.

Yup.

The tourney is done by AI, so the only fun that I can get out of it is by doing moderately well. What's the fun in building a *cool* bot if it's only going to get torn to pieces?

Any tips on how to improve the extender setup?

might as well enter a crawler then.

ty4er · « **Reply #217 on:** October 30, 2012, 01:50:32 PM »

you are just entering a sh**tier version of someone else's bot

again

the fun is building/showing off a cool, perhaps different bot type and trying to win. not just entering another bot type that everyone else enters, let alone someone else's bot.

Who the

said you should only enter bots for "FUN" in tournaments, and that entering to win is a bad thing ? I'm going to punch this guy in the face right now.

What is problematic as a builder, however, is that you are entering a cheap clone of a design without thinking much, instead of coming up with an interesting, original design.

It would be alright if you attempted to IMPROVE the design, but since it's actually worse, the point is moot.

You didn't created or innovated on this design, therefore you have no right to spam it in tournaments.
