Yes, this does get bots ontop easier, but the wedges are worse

I also built a new popup which I'm rather proud of :D

You really should just use 2 extenders for each blue snapper on this.

Should move the razors closer together.

And how come my copy of the game has never let me put the wheels in other Zteks...

Why?
The weight would be distributed better.  Use a shorter extender on the snapper (assuming that's what you have your drive attached to) to attach the drive motors; I would suggest a single 20cm extender.

I'll try but I'm not the best at snapper loading

How do you see the max sphere in the bot lab? I've tried pressing F12 but all I get is the collision meshes

If you are not using the original max_sphere.gmf then it won't show up. I haven't looked as the modified GMF but it is either missing the gmf object altogether or it is bigger than the draw distance. The max sphere that you are most likely running into is the one built directly into the EXE (it doesn't have any visible collision mesh).

Looks a bit like Halestorm 5. =P

What are the wedges mounted on?
