Meh, sounds good enough for me. :POriginally Posted by joeychevron
Any others of my team that I should improve upon? (that includes other-weights) I feel the need to update...at least some bot. :P
dont worry about saurons weapon set-ups as mark has helped me with it
...what's the setups now? Anything Mark has 'helped' with is cause for concern
the same set-ups but hes helped me with what powers each weapon
thats all he has helped me with
I really dislike all these interchangeable weapon things. In practice it means you have a bucket load of mediocre weapons.
Besides the choice of motors you picked are not encouraging. A C90 for a 200kg lifter? That thing had better have one hell of a gearbox in between it or there will be copper dripping out your robot every time you try to lift something.
Where the heck in the revised stats shown here does it say that?
EDIT: I see now, you're talking about the original stats. In that case, please look at the revised stats.
No, either post them here or have someone else look at them. I have 7 forums to look at as it is every day, I'll be buggered if I will look at another.
10 set-ups...christ sakes. You're just like Ben Read when he wanted to add in almost 15 set-ups.
Some thoughts on the revised stats:
Still way too many setups, some of the scoop ones are really unnecessary.
Linear actuators are an inefficent way to do an electric axe.
Why do the claws need a magmotor and linear actuator?
Covered in teeth doesn't sound good for a drum as you might just end up grinding at a robot rather than giving them one good whack.
Finally I'll trust you on the output of the spinning weapons because I can't be bothered to check it.
Ok ill revised the stats again, and remove some set-ups
Sauron

Turning Circle: 0m
Weapon: 7 different interchangeable setups.
1: A 20kg hardox scoop, designed to kill spinners. 0mm ground clearance at the front.
2: A 10kg hardox scoop like the one above, but with an pneumatic axe(powered by 2 2kg c02 tanks) using a 3kg Terrorhurtz-style axehead. It can strike with around 300kg of force, and can be recessed into the body of the robot, keeping it invertible. 0mm ground clearance at the front.
