Up to or exactly 100 elements and 6 light sources?


Up to 100 elements total, including those 6 light sources.  I will update the post to reflect that. :)

OH? I thought they meant you needed exactly 100 Nano-craftable Elements ..is it "up to "?

 

No, that would be a bit cruel saying you have to use exactly 100 nano-craftable items. You can use up to 100 items. :)

Ok I get the Nano craft able elements but that would exclude engines and many of the small/xsmall/ and mediums can't be nanocrafted

 

If you can't craft it in your nanocrafter, then you cannot use that element - that is part of the challenge of this contest.  Make sure to keep the checkbox in the crafting screen "Show nanocraftable only" is checked. :)  Still a lot of elements to choose from!

Many XS and S sized elements including some engines are craftable in the Nano.  Even some Medium sized elements, i think.

If you submitted your bot to the build off but do not see it on the platform that means that it did not meet the requirements (Most of the errors have been using parts that are not nano-craftable) listed in the rules. You can go ahead and modify your bot so it meets the requirements and just resubmit it via the form and we'll review it again and place it when it qualifies. :)
