![I Built Your Weird Drawings In Scrap Mechanic [YDIB 25]](/img/n.gif)
What else should we build in Scrap Mechanic?
Trains!
On your railgun 2 you can make it welded to the ground with a hinge
try making it auto
I don't think there is something that you don't already built in COMING SOON MECHANIC
Magnetic powered motor could work
What would happen if you put two of these turrets against each other?
Mount this on your autopilot Transport ship, then spawn in 2 of them and battle Kosmo or Moonbo with them.
Or good old castle battle, but now across the map :P
@@Baer1990 Ooh... That's a great idea... Because these are magnet-turrets, the castles could be cyberpunk or solarpunk themed.
@@Baer1990 but it shouldnt just be disable the opponents weapon, cause otherwise i feel like itd be over quickly with stationary targets.
should have like 5 flags or something you hide within your castle build which must be destroyed, then once they are gone it removes some barrier that makes taking out the central tower with the gun on it possible.
if you alternate N/S on the magnets you can both push and pull the projectiles to increase velocities
Yea, turn some on and off. Pull until it gets to the magnet, then push
The projectiles are already going fast enough to clip through solid objects at range, more speed isn't really going to do you much good..
@@stevepittman3770unless you use heavier and more powerful rounds.
@@stevepittman3770 Means you could afford to use less magnets, which means less lag and a smaller gun
@@stevepittman3770
You are clearly not a real gamer because for us there is no such thing as "fast enough".
3:08 that’s actually exactly how real life coil guns work!
Yeah! and uses hall sensors to detect the projectile
But it uses attraction intead of repultion
@@jamesgamer6822 yeah
@@jamesgamer6822but it's a very similar principle, and can still yeet stuff fast
For your plans on naval battles you should use the magnets for proximity mines as well. Just put magnets on the ships that are always active, just one every so often. The proximity mines should have a bunch of sensors that once triggered detonate. You could also set them up so they stay at a certain depth, so they sit just under the surface or something. So when the sensors detect a nearby "ship" it'll activate the magnet then after a short delay explode. That allows for other objects to set them off like torpedoes zooming past. Depth charges are another cool thing you could incorporate as well. I'm hoping to see a destroyer and patrol boat in the future.
This is by far the most terrifying thing you’ve made.
I love how humans make magnets and some of the first things we think of are “how deadly can I make this?” And then kan is over here making a canon that will glass anything.
humans didnt make the first magnet. greeks found them 2000 years before they were made.
@@Crazyclay78YT did I mention anything about the first magnets? Because if memory serves me well I never mentioned anything about the first magnets. With that said although it is a real cool fact about the Greeks that you got there (no sarcasm at all. No sir not here) it doesn’t really have no standing ground. Now I do have but one question for you and I would genuinely appreciate it if you answered truthfully no matter how ridiculous or stupid the answer is. What part of my original comment made you feel as if it was necessary to teach us about magnet lore that had nothing to do with my original comment? Because the only way I can think of you coming to that conclusion is that you assumed I was saying that humans made the first magnets when all I really said was that we do make them. Seeing as you’re not capable of understanding my original comment despite its incredible simplicity allow me to break it down for you to more easily comprehend.
“I love how humans make magnets” refers to the fact that we have been making them for some time. Never specified the amount of time and no mention of the invention of magnets is located in the phrase.
“And some of the first things we think of are ‘how deadly can I make this?’” Refers to how some of the first thoughts humans had after starting the manufacturing process is how could we weaponize such a versatile piece of equipment.
“And then kan is over here making a canon that will glass anything.” Refers to the fact that kan enjoyed spending his time in creating a canon (a device used to propel a projectile at dangerous speeds often resulting in damage, injury and death) that is so powerful that it will destroy just about anything.
If you do still have further questions then I will be more then happy to provide answers but only after you answer my previous question. In case the memory of that question has slipped you and you’re too lazy to go back and read for five seconds the question was “What part of my original comment made you feel as if it was necessary to teach us about magnet lore that had nothing to do with my original comment?”
@@michaelb.3006 nice chat gpt answer
@@Crazyclay78YT excuse me? What do you mean “nice chat gpt answer”? Also you still haven’t answered my previous question which is very disappointing.
@Crazyclay78YT I too am curious what the answer is? Because so far you're dodging the question like a mentally ill lab hound for make up testing.
Next, make an aiming computer for a slower shooting cannon! Something that calculates the angle and direction when you input coordinates to it and hits its mark, or at least within a couple dozen blocks, across the whole map!
I first started following this channel and its frequent collaborators for their Trailmakers content... but the more Scrap Mechanic content I see, the better it looks... and videos like this make me want to play with the game myself.
21:41 The way how the projectile phases through the outer layer reminds me of a particular custom made tactical nuke launcher someone made in From The Depths. It’s a feature, a happy accident (unless it phases all the way through the target and out the other side).
Someone made one that adjusts velocity such that in one frame it travels the entire distance from gun to target. The gun can be sealed completely inside the hull and the projectile just teleports to its destination, ignoring anything in the way.
I've seen that one. It's honestly amazing
@@Andreas-zm9tg Yoooo!!! Have you seen both workshop uploads? The Elegance Nuclear Railgun Platform and the AVATAR Nuclear Superbattleship?
19:05 From my 5 seconds of Googling, the thing you spawn in to reload your railgun would be the the clip and the black or feeder part is the magazine.
the black part would not be a magazine as it is not intended for storing rounds, it is just the feed mechanism to load a shell into the chamber. He is indeed using a clip though.
@@jamesTBurkeno ammunition goes Into a magazine
@@nextrobo7964 detachable magazines arent the only type of magazines, bolt action rifles from ww1 and ww2 had an internal magazine that would use clips to insert ammo into the magazine and be chambered, you can still use a clip to load a m4 magazine just like the ww1 and ww2 rifles, they just need to be removed after the ammo has been inserted into the mag
@@jamesTBurke The stripper clips don't go inside the magazine though. They interface via a guide clipped onto the outside of the box mag to feed rounds into the magazine. Honestly the system Kan used is closer to the predessor of the ammo belt, the feed strip, though those typically don't disentegrate.
Just as an idea, maybe you could use the custom piston stuff to make the reloading faster. So make the opening speed of the bolt be high but the closing speed be low so it’s a little faster to reload without having the projectile slide in the barrel.
You should make more modded content, they’re very entertaining!
now u need to automate that reloading mechanism so there would be ammo already behind waiting when u shoot :D
He said he made it manual because sometimes it would get jammed up 22:20
I love these scrap mechanic build videos
This would be great in multi-player with the targets on the other side of the map, and a teammate calling shots as a spotter.
I was about to say something similar XD
I am quite impressed with the clip and the breach loader. Well built and very effective.
In the magazine vs clip war, I believe you are correct, this would be a clip more than a mag. This operates MORE similarly to something like an M1 Garand which has an internal magazine and is fed ammunition from a clip. In this case, your breech is the "magazine"
This has to be one of the coolest things i have ever seen and i loved the process start to end. Such a good video
A display for vertical angle and rotation degrees would be cool. Looks like even with how robust the platform is there's still some recoil, don't know if it'd be possible.
Very cool but I think it cross into the 'too powerful' field where I can't really think of fun implementations. Maybe set up a target on the opposite side of the map and have an on-site spotter calling angle adjustments?
First of all, props for the correct usage of firearm terminology.
Second, I'd say it's an en-bloc clip. Meaning it's only purpose is holding the ammo in place and a actuator inside the gun itself will move the ammo into position and is only discarded after it's empty. If only that thing made an M1 Garand ping when the controller gets disconnected.
Lastly, I just wanted to point out something:
Railguns use 2 conductive rails to dump a charge through a projectile that gets moved with Lorentz force.
A gaussrifle(Coil gun) uses magnetic coils to pull a projectile through each coil.
You are correct about the terminology of your clip. A clip is a object that holds the ammunition and where the gun will load the ammunition and the clip, into itself. Where alternatively a magazine will load the ammunition into the gun usually because of a spring.
20:10
I'd say make it auto-load right up until the activation spudgun blocking the fire button. Than after firing auto-loading again. But that is easy to make
its facinating that you can actually replicate this in this game. although i have a small issue with all this. What you built (currently sitting at 4:05) is actually not a railgun. its a coilgun/gauss cannon. a railgun uses electrified rails to magnetize the projectile instead of coils. These two are some of the most often mixed up concepts though because sci-fi shows and movies just use them interchangable most of the time. Keep up the good work and maybe build a maglev train to annoy hyce with :)
It's unfortunate that they get confused, because they are quite different in the way they operate and how fast the can launch something, because railguns use the lorentze force to move a projectile and the projectile must be moving before it comes in contact with the rails, and the projectile experiences friction against the barrel/rails, and in a coilgun it uses electromagnetic coils to pull a projectile, the projectile never comes in contact with the barrel, and does not need to start moving before being propelled.
So satisfying and well designed :)
Please please please build an Iowa Class Battleship. Battleship New Jersey is my personal favorite of the 4. They are so special. She was the fastest ship in the navy in ww2, and one of if not the fastest capital ship in the world in ww2. The 16inch guns are so special.
There were so many different configurations of her in the many decades she served.
From 16inch, 5 inch and 40mm guns with some float planes at the start.
To 16 inch guns, 5 inch guns, tomahawk missile batteries, cwiz, and a helipad in the 90s.
It would be so perfect to go with your air craft carrier.
kAN was so busy trying to make sure he called the clip the right name that he forgot to call the weapon the right name.
His first iteration was closer to a railgun, but the current iteration is a Gaussian coilgun
It is a clip this time. It does not have a spring or other energy source to force the cartridges in. It also looks visually similar to a charger clip btw.
Man, you got that working really well, nicely done! I'd love to see you revisit the old magnet-powered motor concept you were messing with a while back too.
I used the same mod to make a railgun, except I didn't use anything from the modpack.
Yours is understandably waay cooler!
That is awesome, I was wondering how it would load and it reminds me of an artillery gun.
That is so dope
Hey Kan, I am wondering if it would be better to mount the seat on top in the middle of the barrel for improved aiming. By utilizing the first-person perspective, it could enhance the accuracy of aiming your shots. Perhaps, a mod could be used that incorporates a seat in the prone position along with a custom made crosshair made from pipes. But yeah that railgun is AWESOME, cheers
Very cool design
If you add a few magnets to the breach pusher thing you can hold the projectile before firing so you can aim down and speed up the piston.
The attraction and repulsion is like large neodymium magnets on overdrive! (Look at the most recent slow mo guys video for comparison)
Good job dude
That's awesome
I've always wanted to see two scrap mechanic mod master minds 1v1 with their prized feats of military engineering
This is called motivation!
Of it's just an array of bullets and the gun is the one feeding, it's a clip(this case)
A magazine moves the bullets into the gun.
Amazing build btw
can u put it on the workshop also i think of u as an amazing content creator and hope u live a happy life
bro, thats rly cool
make more epic content like this :D
You should try make a mag-lev train using the magnets mod, i'd be curious to see not only if its possible but also how it would work
This is a good main battery for a battleship.
It also would be good for Multiplayer Monday with several persons playing Tank. Everyone has a fortress and that needs to be destroyed.
the difference between a clip and a magazine is that a magazine fully surrounds/encases the ammunition whereas a clip is just a little metal strip with notches that you attach rounds to, leaving the round completely exposed. magazines are easier/faster to put ammo back in whereas clips are super cheap to produce.
This should honestly be the main gun of the destroyer if you will ever make one, it's so good.
This would cool to watch ppl pvp with this
this is super coool
you could've add some magnets to hold it in place while the piston is moving
Ideas for improvements:
Maybe add some stabilizing fins to the projectile for a more steady flight and maybe add a cardboard rim to the projectile that gets destroyed when firing. You'll be able to move around and aim down while the projectile gets held in place with the rim pinched between the chamber walls and the breachface.
Multiplayer monday battle ship with these would be great
Magazines store and feed cartridges into the chamber (internal and external).
Clips connect cartridges together so they are easier to load into a magazine.
Magazines also use springs.
If it were possible to reverse the polarity of the magnets (or fill gaps between them with the other polarity) then the magnets in front of the projectile could possibly be set to attract it, increasing it's speed, but it would require even more precise timings, and may not be worth it, considering you already have projectiles moving too fast to be properly rendered. Another idea would be using some attractive magnets in the back to prevent projectiles being pushed too far by the breach or falling out the front, which would turn off as the repulsive magnets turn on.
this is pretty cool, but it isnt actually a rail gun, its a gauss rifle, the difference being railguns make actual contact with the projectile place between two rails which are charged elecromagnetically, while gauss rifles use a series of coils to pull/push a projectile down the barrel
I think I’d be awesome to be able to program it like coordinate or something but you know like your in your programming thing and you see the turret aiming automatically would be cool asf
COOL AF :)
2:35 you can see the explosive right as he resets. Looks like it would have landed in the water possibly?
If you flip the breach load to load up from the bottom side, it would be amazing on a ship that way!
add diagonal long range sensors on the sides angled by 45º that trigger side thrusters or something (does spud gun push?) to make it target things :)
also test it with a giant cube :]
kans aiming is immaculate
Not having a go, just educating.
A magazine holds ammunition and presents it to the loading mechanism and is either internal or detachable.
A clip holds ammunition, but requires manual feeding to either a magazine or direct to the breech.
Alternate the N/S magnetic pulls so that you can generate more speed but also attach the momentum retaining block from engineers toolbox and it’ll fly so much faster for longer too
22:15 no, it that happens, it's the carrier which will be blown away. LOL
Build a neuron
Basically a threshhold switch with adjustable threshhold and that could maybe steer a car or something it could adjust steering angles on a car and stuff maybe build it in a bus like vehicle and throw curvy roads in its way
When i see that kan posts a video its already a good day btw i have a idea for the new video you culd build or reviev replica of real cars from the worlshop
This is an actual clip btw. A mag would be completely encased but since its consumed (and not reloadable) its a clip
I would love to see what that does to the cardboard castle that had the bomb in the middle. Not sure if this has been done before, try to make a fairly simple trail makers creation in scrap mechanic, like you VTOL.
Make a 1x1 barrel, and make a tank where you have break off the rounds, then load it into the cannon and fire it through 1x1 barrel
Man that's a funky looking Tesla
Good job
Couple things, first, yeah you could call that a clip and not be wrong although it may be closer to a disintegrating feed strip. And second, just put a sight on it to aim with in first person, that'd probably work about as good as a laser and if you're really ambitious you could make it a proper ladder sight with the distances already accounted for.
Yes, that is in fact a clip. The difference between a clip and a magazine is that the magazine has a sprain that moves the rounds into position so it can be picked up and put into the chamber,the clip just hold the rounds
add wings to the back end for stability? And lower the safety timer, I do have the feeling that they explode on the far side because they aren't armed before that
I forgot about the magnet mod, this thing is phenomenal
Could i recommend a side loading version with an iron sight. It seems like the idea would work well because you could also find a range finder with the sight.
It is likely going through the carrier before exploding because you have too long of a delay before it can detonate. You need a sight for it to make it easier to aim.
I'd like to see you guys do the board game battleship!
Connect the magnets to engines to change the power on them, I messed with them before, it was a while ago so I may be incorrect, but it should work
Just saying Kan the railgun didn't move that much prob 1 degree but because of the distance it made it seem like it moved over a ton don't doubt yourself man you are amazing
I love th ebullient vids
W upload
I want to make a chair to launch myself.. 😂
You should make a multicrew tank using this with a loader a gunner and a driver i think it would be pretty cool
You should put the ammo under the barrel with the magnets on the switch toggle so you can put a iron sight on the top of the barrel
If you get the time you should make a video showing the piston logic with the mod. Gave up on the pulsing pistons a while ago and just went to electric motors with suspension glitches to help hold position :/ 11:44
You need to make a battle video with this
i wonder if you could allow the turret to rotate faster by locking out rotation when firing (with some leeway around it).
What would be cool, would ba a aming lazer or sight that moves based on the drop and angle of the gun to fire acuratley at long ranges
With a fully-enclosed barrel, you could probably turn the magnet blocks into rings.
Kan could you please please make a video of the way the logic not only works but is set up please I’d be really grateful
hey kan
i used to be your fan and still i am this is a new account i made you made me learn a lot
cars in trailmakers ty so much
Kinda would like to see an Electromagnetic Rail Gun vs a Bomber in Scrap Mechanic. To see if you can shoot down a bomber that is trying to destroy your Rail gun. XD
Dude! Spawn in a carrier! C'mon! Ahh there it is. 😁
You should stream building your creations
man now we have railguns for the big mm battle
This needs a multiplayer Monday feature.
are you and kosmo planning to do another co op survival series when ch2 comes out?
Could you use the Magnets to build a Semi-Truck and trailer that could couple and decouple?
