Every thread turns into spam at some point or other, I guess.

just wanna point out that the poly skirts on Blaze Line's wedge were only added cause without them, it would be unrealistic

In my opinion, I hate them.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #222 on:** May 26, 2010, 09:22:44 PM »

as I noted in Naryars showcase

skirt hinge armour realistic? no

can we stop its use? no

we cant have 153 nit pick rules over things.. that just gets confusing and ruins the game, FH3 used a base mounted half sheet as front armour.. but where can you draw that line ? general rules easily avoid debating IMO something I have considered for Backlash with the ban of anything but spinners.

Stopping the use of skirt hinge armour in tournaments is easy. All it takes is for Click (or the host in future situations) to say "no invincible (baseplate mounted) armour because it's unrealistic."

Easy as pie IMO.

You played the DSL ego game with him.
You let him get carried away.
You share the blame.
Nonsense. You play the ego game with him. In fact you are playing it right now.

No I'm not and you did. Remember the whole efficiancy thread? Yeah, FED. HIS. EGO.

I wonder how Click will do the brackets now?

Lol okay since I take the blame I might as well cash in on it too.

everyone will just try and claim its for another use then Armour.. I mean look at casters.. they arnt even meant to be Armour yet they are used that way. to many resrictions would have to be in place.. ok for a one off tournament perhaps (like the IRL one that never happened) but not for regular building.. its to hard.

of coarse there is an easy fix for the skirt hinges being used as armour.... take away the odd collision or collision completely (except the white part) they are only an attachment method so they don't really need one.. DSL 2.2 anyone ?

Weird thing is that now that i discovered a new technique plenty of people are lik BAWWWWW but we NEVER had this sort of discussion about baseplate attached halfsheets.

Wait till i klone Click's Noble Sacrifice in DSL and enter it in a tournament.

Somebody · « **Reply #229 on:** May 27, 2010, 08:52:39 AM »

Baseplate attached halfsheets were *meant* to be invincible. Thats why they way half as much as the big ones for about 1/3 of the size. You pay the price in weight. Yet when we come up with something just as good, that can be mounted anywhere and ISNT MEANT to be doing this. then it is unrealistic. A skirt hinge couldnt block sh** IRL

Sage · « **Reply #230 on:** May 27, 2010, 09:43:13 AM »

The difference between castor armor and invisible skirt hinge armor is that castors COULD be used irl. Putting a thick piece of metal in the fornt of your robot to protect from frontal damage is absolutely realistic, cause it can be attached directly to the chassis. Skirts could never be used the way they are being used now. The only reason the collision mesh is like that is because it would havok without it.

That being said, I don't mind it's use in this tournament. Click said it was fine, so stop QQ and just enjoy the show. If you lose because of invisible invincible skirt hinge armor, be angry at yourself for not thinking of using it too.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #231 on:** May 27, 2010, 09:48:06 AM »

actually I have the feeling nobody actually cares.. they are probably just using it as fuel to get Nary back for all the "cheap" and "ghey" comments :P

Sage · « **Reply #232 on:** May 27, 2010, 09:51:03 AM »

If anyone is entitled to getting back at Nary it's me, but I'm not bawwwwwing about it like he did to Bee...

K. Test your bot against Acornia 2 HMS on the Bot Exchange.

Fine.. did 10 matches. Controlled Acornia 2 myself, went after and poked whenever AoN was in range nomatter what (like an AI)
AoN won 6 - 6 KOs
Acornia won 4 - Suicide TKO, WBP and 2 KOs

Acornia's weapon bar only survived the two times it KOed AoN.
