Hi!
I discovered that like half a year ago and I'm finally smart enough to post it here!
So what is it?
Basicly when components interselect with moving parts, axles, flipperpanels, wheels and all that stuff, the loading time will go waaaaaaaay up!
I did some tests and I think its pretty obvious:
1. Rest in Dust M2 Heavy

I think some of you may know this bot for its freakin long loadtime and got rejected in multiple tournaments because of it!
This Bot takes like 2:30 mins to load!
To build the bot faster, i use the pause glitch all the time because the loading kills me too! xD
So why does the pause glitch actually help with the loadingtime?
Some of you may know that the bots look pretty crippled when you load a match with the pause glitch active.
That because the axles aren't loading and remain in there default position.
Anyway, I bfed all motors out of the chassis, so they dont touch the chassis nor themselves.

So, what happened?
I got the loading time from 2:30 to freakin 0:02 Minutes!
So why should this help you? Just look on how you built your robot when it loads long!
Free up the axles and try to remove uneccensary, non moving items around the axles or inside the axles.
Interselecting moving components make bot loadings even slower!
With that information, I made Rest in Dust M2 Heavy CF (CF standing for Computer friendly lol) that just takes 1:07 minutes to load!
I hope I could help those builders that have pretty much the same problem like me all the time when building bots!
Bildschirm out! :3

Cool tutorial. Just wondering if you will also add a section for The Blanc? Also would be cool too to get extra section like other bots that load long and how to make load time shorter if you get consent from their builder, and maybe also certain things that increase load time. Like don't get me wrong. Ik more component is pretty obvious, but maybe stuffs like how Carbon Fibre extender increase load time for example
And on a side note, that's your eligible entry then for Fresh Metal. I think RiD is different from RiP, and thus legal. Hoping the shortened load time is not considered too much for BSRaven

This looks cool but I don't know how to do the pause glitch. :really_makes_you_think:

You just press the Pause Break button for it

tl:dr. Dont build like Poke

Wait did you newer guys actually not know about this :dumb)
