| 18:28 | < Mantisking> | Hello? |
| 18:30 | < FlakManiak1> | Hey. |
| 18:32 | < Mantisking> | Hey. |
| 18:34 | < Mantisking> | How are you doing today? |
| 18:34 | < FlakManiak1> | Fairly ok. The weather is too hot and humid, but I've been playing instruments and I figured out how to cook hash browns. So, a productive day. |
| 18:34 | < FlakManiak1> | (It turns out cooking hash browns is super simple.) |

| 21:36 | < Ced23Ric> | Today, I tackled the Scrambler. |
| 21:36 | < Ced23Ric> | And I think I cracked the nut. |
| 21:36 | < Ced23Ric> | Scrambler v2 is a thing. |
| 21:40 | | * mraichelson takes notes |
| 21:41 | < FlakManiak1> | Are you trying to make custom versions of all the book designs? |
| 21:41 | < FlakManiak1> | Hmm. I really should order parts for that one company I've had on hold. |
| 21:41 | < Ced23Ric> | Not really. Just wanted to reboot the Scrambler. |
| 21:41 | < Ced23Ric> | Because that has been on my mind for quite some time now. |
| 21:41 | < Ced23Ric> | Lemme show you my pokemans. |

| 21:44 | < mraichelson> | nice |
| 21:45 | < Ced23Ric> | They look very spidery. |
| 21:46 | < Ced23Ric> | I haven't found a decent solutions for Arty/Melee yet, but those work as Grunts/Soldiers. |
| 21:46 | < Ced23Ric> | The tooth piece in the front legs makes me giddy with excitement. |
| 21:46 | < FlakManiak1> | Damn. Got some serious elegance there. |
| 21:46 | < FlakManiak1> | And yeah the tooth piece on the front legs is great. |
| 21:47 | < mraichelson> | todo list: melee versions of scramblers, chicken walkers. |
| 21:47 | < Ced23Ric> | Gives it a claw-y look. Lie they could really hook into something and pull themselves over buildings etc. |
| 21:47 | < Ced23Ric> | Or, just plain plunge them into hostiles. |
| 21:48 | < Ced23Ric> | Mhmm. I might simply make those legs more clawey and call that melee. |
| 21:48 | < FlakManiak1> | I need your elegance, more of gatlinggouf's excess than I already have, and Soren's je ne sais quoi. |
| 21:48 | < Ced23Ric> | >implying I have eegance |
| 21:48 | < FlakManiak1> | And some other attributes from other builders. |
| 21:48 | < Ced23Ric> | I am literally just slapping shit together like an engineer trying to solve problems. |
| 21:49 | < Ced23Ric> | Any elegance you might see is accidental. |
| 21:49 | < FlakManiak1> | Well that's probably it, because I do it more like an artist, trying to impart a certain feeling. |
| 21:49 | < FlakManiak1> | Well, for most of my builds. |
| 21:49 | < FlakManiak1> | I have some style or shape or theme I want to evoke. |
| 21:50 | < Ced23Ric> | Well, I usually internalize the design language and then solve problems. |
| 21:50 | < Ced23Ric> | "need strong hind legs", "need ball turret", "need quadruped" |
| 21:50 | < mraichelson> | āsomething like an angry ferret ready to pounceā |

| 21:51 | < Mantisking> | Ced. |
| 21:51 | < Ced23Ric> | Ray! |
| 21:51 | < Mantisking> | How's things? |
| 21:51 | < Ced23Ric> | Pretty good! Just finished my Scrambler Reboot test. |
| 21:52 | < Mantisking> | I have no idea what that is. |
| 21:52 | < Ced23Ric> | https://www.flickr.com/photos/79277138@N08/14428430260/ |
| 21:52 | < Ced23Ric> | Taking the Scrambler, doing it again. A reboot. |
| 21:54 | < Mantisking> | I dod one a while ago. |
| 21:54 | < Mantisking> | "did" |
| 21:54 | < Mantisking> | https://www.flickr.com/photos/35895569@N05/9914085174/in/set-72157614638909764 |
| 21:55 | < Ced23Ric> | Looks more tactile than the original. |
| 21:55 | < Ced23Ric> | Not a fan of the colours. :D |
| 21:56 | < Mantisking> | I seem to build a lot using Bley and Yellow. |
| 21:56 | < FlakManiak1> | Light bley and yellow look fine to me, but dark bley and yellow just don't really work. |
| 21:56 | < FlakManiak1> | But then I'm not big on yellow at all. |

| 22:02 | < Ced23Ric> | I ran out of 3x3 dishes. |
| 22:02 | < Ced23Ric> | The Scrambler uses 7 of those per model. |
| 22:03 | < Ced23Ric> | I happen to have 17 - 3 in use with IO frigates. |
| 22:04 | < Ced23Ric> | So, by my calculation, I need at least ... 29 more. |
| 22:04 | < Ced23Ric> | And 8 more of those teeth. |
| 22:13 | < Ced23Ric> | Mhmm. I think I wanna reboot the Conscript and Commissar. |
| 22:13 | < FlakManiak1> | IMO the 2x2 dish above the 3x3 in the torso should also be dark bley. |
| 22:14 | < FlakManiak1> | That's my only gripe about the design. |
| 22:14 | < Ced23Ric> | I had none, that's the only reason. |
| 22:14 | < FlakManiak1> | Yeah I figured. |
| 22:14 | < Ced23Ric> | I'll get some. |
| 22:15 | < Ced23Ric> | Done! |
| 22:17 | < FlakManiak1> | Is it the light... Or do I spy and old dark grey antenna on the left one? |
| 22:17 | < FlakManiak1> | It's just the light, right? |
| 22:17 | < Ced23Ric> | It is not, to my shame. |
| 22:18 | < FlakManiak1> | Shame, condemnation, etc. Your dishonor lasts forever, blah blah. |
| 22:18 | < FlakManiak1> | Or at least until you get a dark bley one and photograph it. |
| 22:19 | < Ced23Ric> | Yupp! |
| 22:22 | < FlakManiak1> | But even now it's subtle in the pictures. |
| 22:23 | < Ced23Ric> | I'll probably go for smaller antennae later. This is still just a test. |
| 22:24 | < FlakManiak1> | Well they look great so far. If that's a test, I'd love to see your finished product! |
| 22:25 | < Ced23Ric> | Probably gonna tweak the antennae, the "eyes" and come up with more turrets for arty applications. |
| 22:25 | < Ced23Ric> | And I'll do some sort of melee. Somehow. Not sure yet. |
