(...) Actually, it's pretty interesting, if you consider how complex making a pair of turns really is. If you make a 90 degree right hand turn on a 32x32 baseplate, the module must output right next to it's own input. But, bins on a left-hand turn (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)

However I CERTAINLY will be advising him to hold out for good space parts in trade. :) I might have to see if we can build one or two of these, seems like good fun. I might even (...)

(...) I was wondering when we'd hear from you again, Mladen, and this is worth the wait! When I saw the thumbnail I thought, "are those blue droid soldier bodies on the feet", but then I saw how mistaken I was in regard to the size! I'm working on a (...)

(...) I think you can handle this with a little care in the design of the rules. If the table you are setting it up on is deep enough to permit it, you could always use four 90 degree pieces in a LEFT/RIGHT/RIGHT/LEFT sequence to keep the overall (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Yeah - I agree. You need the 'average builder' to stick to a simple straight-line standard one-size-fits-all module. If you don't then everyone will want to build something esoteric and you'll get hardly any simple modules of the kind that (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) That's a great frame to build from, and the new color scheme is a huge improvement. One of these days I want to try one in dark blay and orange, with white accents. I'm not really feeling the big gun, but otherwise very good, creative work. (21 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Instead of that, just make sure that your module delivers through the "side" of the downstream module's territory. In other words, using a chute (even a very short one) is a pretty easy solution. And that way the standard isn't further (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)
