Are we classing The Mangulator as a Sit and Spin thwackbot or a Torque Reaction thwackbot. It is in both categories on the weapon pages, and I think it should be assigned to one. Datovidny (talk) 11:12, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for that ManUCrazy, but I do believe that we should've had a discussion about it. Datovidny (talk) 18:04, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
Torque Reaction would be better, because 99% of robots can spin in place as a secondary weapon. (Dantomkia for example). I don't know that it's possible to build a robot that can "torque react" without meaning to build one, you have to install some special clutch mechanism that connects the axle to the part that swings, I don't really understand the technical details, but you get the idea. RA2; aka Resetti's Replicas. (My Talk) 18:16, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
The way they work isn't that difficult, but bottom line, it was listed in both categories, and in the list on both pages for each type of weapon, and I felt I needed to ask other people before I acted. Datovidny (talk) 21:31, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
