Do adding hoverblades limit heigh as motor wheels limit speed?
afaik, no. But if you're up too high hoverblades are only good as a stabilizer. (or if not well balanced, a strong wobble force until you go back down)

so I tested them, and they act weird when transitioning their max height. above and below the critical height they work fine.

you can skip the boring fight and check at end, while going descending on ground level for capture, to see the same issue at passing the critical heigh.

ok, someone had a new? idea that i think is bloody brilliant:
use hoverblades not to fly, but just to creep above the ground.
not much different from a wheeled tank, exept its harder to manouver, but cant get stuck and reaches higher top speeds. also more flat as wheels add quite some hight.

doesnt give shit about being unbalanced or losing the private parts. i realy like it.

i dont have unlimited cubes...
 i figure if i alternate weaker with stronger cubes, it will not create so weak weak points.

its because the way damage spread works. if i place the weak cubes all directly beside each other, a single hit can take out larger parts of my structure.

meh poor. depending on tier thats very nice stuff.
anyway poor... until youre realy poor in rl, maby consider a premium account. its not needed in game as tech progress is fast and repair costs are way to low.
but the devs struggle to even pay for the servers and traffic, and its just 10€ for 3 month.

I'd be premium, I throw 20$ for support quite some time ago. Then converted gc on premium because nothing else really makes sense.

I don't have much time at hand and I prefer lower tiers even if I know that higer tiers shell out much more money the playstile just I don't like.

no idea raly.
but as far as monsters go, its rather a very small monster. realy as small as it gets for tier10.
biggest thing ive seen has like 30 t5s guns.
dunno. dont have so many cubes nor guns, also i always tried to keep my tanks rather small.

edit:

thought about it. didnt grind for this bot at all.
i played the game and enjoyed every minute, so there was no grinding.

I wrote to the developers explaining the problem with kg/kN, and they wrote me back, said thanks, and that they'd fix it :)

shifting the COM forward allow for better viewing while targeting target below your blimp

also, remember, as a flyer, your role is support:

That v shape gives you a lot of frontage for weapons for a few blocks and it stronger that a line.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

And I would think it would also make you harder to hit- I know I'm used to aiming center of mass on flyers.
