Hello. My name is BlacKy, or Ori128 in Robocraft.

In this guide i will be showing you how to make some of my own designs which have yet to fail me on the battlefield.
I will mostly be focusing on land vehicles rather than aircrafts.
Most of my crafts can be used for a wide veriety of tiers (altho using mostly high tier electro plates), and because of that, I will be building everything from white blocks just to demonstrate how all the pieces fit together.
I'll keep updating this guide as long as i have new creations in mind.
Feel free to tweak any examples to fit in your current tiers.

Some of my designs would require to use a core. The core is the heart of the craft which the pilot is sitting above, and its the most armored part of the craft compared to its small size. A good core is built by not having the damage being sent up to the pilot, but instead, forcing the damage to go through as many blocks as possible before touching the block beneath the pilot seat. This is a tutorial which teaches how to make a good core (credits for that goes to the owner of that video, not to me):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeHrnosJdOI&list=LLFP_biXKaVN6YT-_rspPm6g&index=3
Core building starts at 0:40 and ends at 1:43 .


I will make each small progress with its own screenshot, while showing the new added armor as brown armor blocks, compared to the white armor blocks which were already there from past steps.
I will build my bot with parts which mostly fit a T10 battle. Feel free to tweak that to your own tier.
'Utilities' means Flipper + Radar + Jammer at your desired tier. I almost never use a reciever since it takes up too much CPU, while also being pretty big and bulky for my craft's designs.

I hope you will enjoy reading and following this guide, as i have put much work in it. I will gladly take any positive and negative criticism of my designs but up to a certain point. If i feel there is a debate going on with something that you feel i did wrong, i will eventually, but respectfully, ignore your comments. I do not wish to start an argument of 'why is this wrong?' and 'why not this way?'. It is what it is, and hopefully you could deal with it :D.

Example of where to put plasma cannons:

The horizontal beam at the back is for SMG's / Nano's to be mounted on the craft. Feel free to remove it if its not being used.

Add utilities as you wish:

Short info: The Fly is a special craft, used only upon unlocking T9/T10 plasma cannon. The purpose of this aircraft is to have a very strong weapon for its tier, while being a bit fragile but very deadly. Its also an easy to control craft, very fast, very stable, and easy to flank with.
You should only use it when you have unlocked your high tier plasma cannon and with that you should go back to previous tiers to deal high damage compared to the other crafts.

Size: Small
Weapon type: Plasma
Availability: T6 (after unlocking T9 plasma cannon) / T7 (after unlocking T10 plasma cannon)
Total amount of CPU: 683 (for the T7 version)

Depending on your remaining cpu, add a shield at the back. I would choose a single T8 or T9, like this:


* You can give up the back shield and add a 6th T10 plasma cannon at the bottom. Its your call, but i find an extra shield to be more valuable.

* As for utilities, a flipper is neglible since this craft is auto flippable. Its always going to be in a normal position and not upside down. Add a jammer if you want.

At the lower back area, add 22 cubes between all the prism beams, like this:


Add another 22 cubes at the top area like this:


Add 22 prisms in total, 11 at the lower front and 11 at the lower back, like this:


Add 12 cubes as wheel mounts, like this:


Add 8 cubes as weapon mounts + remove the 2 cubes marked as glass cubes, like this:


* Now for adding parts *

Add 12 T10 wheels at their proper mounts, like this:


Add 6 T10 railguns, 3 T10 thrusters facing forward, 1 T10 thruster facing backwards, and utilities, like this:



* From here, everything i suggest is only optional *

Add 2 pairs of T9 shields, with 2 cubes and 4 prisms for their mounts, like this:


Add 2 T10 shields, a 'left' at the front, and either a 'left' or a 'right' at the back, like this:


Reagrdless of the extra armor provided at the last step, its possible to use walker legs instead of wheels, but it will clash with the side T9 shields from before, so you should remove the shields or replace them somewhere else.

To use walker legs and keeping the shields, add 5 cubes and 2 prisms at each side, like this:


... And the same for the other side.

Short info: Mr. Plow is a craft with a secret 'weaving' armor layout inside its main body, which can sustain a heavy amount of damage, while making sharp turns and dodging incoming fire. Its ideal for ambushing purposes while lasting long on its own.

* Perhaps you have figured out by now that the presentation bot is slightly different than what is mentioned here, as i have implemented a few armor upgrades while rebuilding this craft for the guide. *

I must say that i feel the sense of accomplishment of helping the Robocraft's community with showing some of the good designs my mind has stumbled upon. While you may find some ideas to be not as efficient as others, bare in mind that i kept writing this guide while learning new key features like the use of a core and triforcing.
As i said at the start, i will keep updating this guide whenever i'll have new (and good) designs in mind. Please rate up and favorite this guide for future purposes as i promise to keep adding more fruitful designs in the near future.
I hope you will embrace a few ideas to put in the battlefield with perhaps a few tweaks to meet your specific condition with tier, cpu and available resources..

I would want you, the guide readers, to help me further test my bots and to give me a proper feedback on the bots you have tested. It should look like this (an example):


Bot's name: Gridbot
Type of weapons used: SMG, Nano
Played at: T10
A distinct upside of this bot: Lasts very long inside the battlefield.
A distinct downside of this bot: Takes too much resources and money to build.
Overall quality, in my opinion and personal experience: 9 out of 10
Further criticism of how i have experienced this bot: (optional, in your own words)
Screenies to share: (also optional, if u wanna show your design in case u have modded it to your needs)


Thanks for taking the time for reading, rating, and commenting on this guide.
Yours truly,
