Ironbot Signups

[NFX]

Actually looks pretty good. Is that AGOD on the right-hand wheel, though?

[Naryar]

27HS ? While it is excellently built, I don't think that's enough weapons to last compared to most rammers or standard 36HS...

Anyways, I'm off going to make my .py for this.

For those that want to try facing off against my entry (AI vs AI is a good comparison choice) here is my entry: T-888 Terminator


https://gametechmods.com/Robot_Exchange/HW/Starcore_T-888%20Terminator.bot


For the AI line use:



list.append(("T-888 Terminator","Omni",{'invertible':True,'topspeed':99,'throttle':130,'turn':60,'turnspeed':2.5,'range':30,'weapons':(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39)}))


T-888 Terminator is also over 2 years old. I couldn't find the Component Look Up tool to map the Weapons part numbers.


A 27HS with 4 Ram Plates and 3 Casters to be more of an Ironbot.


It's weakness for Ironbot is probably only having 2 Wheels.


We will see how well the Maces, Ram Plates and Casters protect them.

Recommendations are welcome for future improvement.

DSA?
Just ignore the armor tab.

Well you asked me how to use DSA, so I told you how to use DSA.

I'm supposed to fight THAT! help me dsa.

[090901]

He's asking "DSA" to give he enough health to live.

Starcore, you should use Rubber wheels instead of Grannies. They have a larger collision mesh, meaning they will still provide invertibility while becoming smaller targets and looking better as well.
      Also, it might be beneficial to use the snapper loading glitch to attach the drive motors on the inside point of the 40cm (see that little bit of extender we can see before it enters the batteries? attach them there). This will give the motors slightly more protection as well as allow you to rotate the drive motors flush with the ground, creating less ground clearance and making it tougher on those pesky popups.
    The last thing would be that the backs of ramplates have never seemed very sturdy to me (perhaps I'm wrong here, but that's what I found in my experience). So, I think it would be beneficial to move the side ramplates back a bit if possible. The weight gain from the other modifications should be enough for another couple extenders.

That looks really good, especially for something that old. I am cautiously excited for this tournament. I have a rammer with 40 something maces and it's good against HS, but a lot of it will be who I fight when. So far Sage is the only one to have the bot because he helped me skin it.

I entered a 24 Iron and 4 single sided axe pick rammer bot

Some good suggestions. Will play with the Rubber Wheels and as I look at it I may have a connect points along the central connect 40cms extenders that I will play with. I agree with making the Motors more flush with the ground as a result.


As to the Backs of the Ram Plates, I have not done specific testing to confirm but have not had negative using them this way and I deeply liked the trapping effect of the corners.

Anyways, I'm off going to make my .py for this.

Your mileage may vary but in AI vs AI testing as shown T-888 Terminator bested the 36HS ULTIMATUM 2010 edition 14 out of 16 tests and every Rammer I could throw against it, defeating them in under 50 seconds each.


Still doesn't mean it will do as well in the Ironbot rounds and the 30 second rounds have impact on one's tactics.


We will see,

Yes both sides are AGOGed down pretty much the same amount to offset the snapper connector being pushed up by the weight/tension/torque. In testing seemed to help as much as any hurt from the effect so I left it.

Well my robot is a poorly bulit SNS/HS but it can do alright against HS's but I am competing for as we say in the island of Ireland for the crack/fun.

[NFX]

I've got an SnS as well, with 36 Irons/Maces and an extra 4 Razor Tips. I'm hoping it should hold out pretty well against HS and a few of the wedged bots, maybe less so against rammers.

Oh and Starcore.  i dont think anyone is mentioning it because they fear you...

But, you can Multi-quote in one post now.  Just use the little multiquote button on the top right of each message.  :D

Thank you for mentioning.


Didn't kill anyone for me to respond to each one.


I responded as I noticed and moved on. I am not trying to jack up my post count as you can see by my total posts across the years.


It was three separate discussion points and I was moving fast. Bite me.

Gall, I am Admin for a reason....


I was being nice and engaging by asking for recommendations on a 2 year old bot that even with minor flaws looks cool and kicks royal butt.


See if I ever ask you guys for recommendations again. Going back to coding and earning thousands every month in other MMOs as my free time activity.

I was talking about the multi-quote feature, I don't think you are some kind of idiot or anything.
