I like this blueprint, goods use of small grid warheads. This blueprint was the closest i could find in terms of a " small grid warhead launcher blueprint". Small grid warhead components are 25 L total in your character inventory. If i just had a launcher blueprint that was just 500 L max. LOL

@Red - Ah... right. Those were the amorphous rounded blocks. I'll fix that in a day or two. The regular heavy armor ones will work fine.

sadly the parts used for the top were removed

@parkasever I actually had a similar thought but mine (badumtss) was to actually build a mass deployer ship. Essentially, projector, a few welders, constantly make new mines while flying over enemy territory. The disadvantages? Well... who knows where that thing's going after that...

@McTec Ind. - Muahahaha that's pure evil! I was thinking of making the parachute dropping mine layer spaceship. I'll check out your design.

well was kind of tinkering with your rollbot mine idea and made something truly evil (parachutes hooray!)...what do you think? obviously your bots are more refined because I'm not used to building microrobots and such but not bad for a try eh? ;) https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1174282801

@McTec Ind. That's a great idea! I am already implementing the parachute into microbots as recon drones, I just haven't released anything yet as I am still testing it.

just an idea.what do you think of having an paradrop version (using the new parachute) of your mine that activates the search routine by having a sensor detect voxels (like the ground).so in essence having a mine (or more) being dropped out of plane only to automatically activate when reaching the ground.just an evil idea because robots (evil robots) are your thing.^^

@-XVI- Dje yeah.. may be, whatever

Oh, it just says Robots_ so I had no idea what that was

It's on the right >> under required items menu. It's a sound mod called "Robots"
Note that the mine works 100% without it. Here is the link: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=708552314

Can you put a link to the scream mod in the description?

@Nonsense You're thinking of the movie "Screamers"

i remember old american film about screaming moving under sand mines... They also have human shape in latest version at the end.

i dont want theese onless the people want nightmares LOL

LOL

UPGRADE 1 IS HERE:
The mines are now screaming before they detonate thanks to FocusBoxHero assistance with the sound! This mod is purely aesthetic and the mine works 100% without any mods. Happy screaming!

how do u even make these? i can barely make a small rover and this guy gots high tech screaming death mines

lol is right Mike. I got your reference. Though while I think the idea is good, it's another grid for the processors to maintain, and an effective mine field of them would be a lag fest as well as a hazard.

How you put an image from the computer on the front page of your blueprint?

@parkasever if you can pull that sound right it will make these insanely scarier weapon to fight against.

Lol screamer mines. cult scifi reference detected!!

Ok how many more of these balls do you plan to make, even?

Components like the sensor, camera and audio block actually occupy more space in the block they are attached to than their actual spot. Because of this and the rounded armor this robot appears much smaller than the sum of its parts.

@jackik1410 if they add a sound block for the mechanical screaming sound it will be 11 blocks

btw i think there are 10 blocks . . . 8 cubes and two sensors

Update will come on Friday. In the update this robot will actually produce a mechanic screaming sound before detonation. Hopefully this will be even scarier weapon then.

released 200 of these little things, now iam scared to go back

How big is the explosion and how do you make it so small?

you could make the timer block slowly increase the roll override. It would make them cover a larger surface.

idk why but they look so cute (dont judge me) btw awsome

these microbots are f*king scary and awesome XD really you are a master engineer! can you make a video tutorial on how to implement these wonderful ideas? you have alot to teach us!

my friend, you have done it again

These are the single most badass things I have yet to find on the workshop

@Copycat80 / Yes. Deployable "Ammo waster" decoy is what I am currently working on.

can you make a decoy version?

I guess I'll make a modded version then :P
still this is a great series of bots :)

@Cherono Lord / I don't use mods in the Microbot series. But everyone is welcome to make their own versions. If it works better than original I will post a link so people have access to best robots of the community! It already has a Timer block that can be used for the pupose you mention.

if modded with the parachute mod it can safely be dropped from the air ;)
maybe a release timer for that also or the one that turn it into static mine? :)
would you be kind and release such version? :D

they will make big BOOM when you drop them :P
but idea is very nice

this is great, just imagine a dropship dropping a ton of them onto an enemy base xD
