As long as you don't use caps, I'm glad we have another silly member here, whose idea of humor spreads past *making posts like this in asterisks to signal actions that are very corny*

I think you should show us what you built before deleting it. Also you might want the picture as a reference if you wanted to rebuild it and try to see if it doesn't glitch.

No, I don't even know HOW to make those.

Here's the outside of X-Quiz-It Gorilla:

And the inside, you can see the ballast:

It worked! Thanks, Naryar!

You might want to try that

And in stock, all wheels are the same, excepted from size and weight. So for your design, shiny hubs are the best.

I still don't understand what it's supposed to do.

EMERGENCY, PREPARE TO GET THE STUFFING- er, BATTERY JUICE BEATEN OUT OF YOU! BWAHAHAHAHA!

~~And here we go again.~~
EMERGENCY, I swear, is a meme for RA2(Not as much as SFTW, but along those lines)

It's really just because it's the trickiest bot for a newbie to beat, it seems. I'm also slightly curious as to how it operates with the "tail" being so long. Although it sounds to me like it may be a havok bomb of some description, which normally happens after an external motor gets broken off. It can also happen in other cases, such as 3.14-ston in BBEANS 3. I'm guessing it might be a similar problem.

I've been playing Robot Arena for a much longer time than I've been a member on Gametechmods. Anyway, I think it's time for me to showcase a new bot, Overheat!

Here's the outside:

And this is the inside:

Since I had almost 7 pounds of weight leftover, I tried putting a caster on him, but it made him a lot slower. I'll experiment with different sizes.

Shrink the chassis a bit, and try and fit a Nifty.

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #30 on:** January 12, 2011, 06:48:06 AM »

The Nifty Battery is too tall to fit. Too bad you can't put batteries on extenders.

NFX · « **Reply #31 on:** January 12, 2011, 06:48:58 AM »

Actually looks not too bad. But do try and fit a Nifty battery in there, rebuild the chassis if you have to.

1. Never use angle connectors, they're a waste of weight
2. Always use shineys if possible
3. Try to fit in one black
4. Download RFS AI v5.0 to start off with, and progress to starcore.

RFS v5 came out?!

He's my best lightweight. He destroyed Bot-204 in the Combat Arena in 10 seconds. (I was doing a tournament). Anyway, I'm going to remake him with DSA armor. Maybe a taller but smaller bot would work. At least tall enough to fit a Nifty.

Somebody · « **Reply #34 on:** January 12, 2011, 09:23:28 AM »

Alright I think that pretty soon you are going to want to upgrade to Starcore v1 AI Pack. Its moderately challenging and would give your bots a good run for their money.

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #35 on:** January 12, 2011, 09:38:45 AM »

I found it. I'll download it soon.

G.K. · « **Reply #36 on:** January 12, 2011, 10:45:15 AM »

Wacky, don't be afraid to rebuild if the components won't fit in the chassis.

Yeah, it only came out in '03 :P

I'm not going to edit the original Overheat, but I'll probably import him in an empty space and fix him up a bit.
