Multiplayer Monday inspiration here? Portal cars to race with/demo derby with? Portal on the nose to eat the other racers as you race laps or something.
This.
racers versus monsters in a derby track. monsters have portals to try and eat the racer, and the racer has to get as many laps as possible
I just wrote the same 3 hours later then you maybe I should first read comments 😅
You should make a car crusher where the car falls into a slanted hole with a portal at the bottom
I’ve been wanting that
What do the portals do to mobs? Like the robots or a glow bug or a woc? I would love to see that!
I made a video on that just yesterday lol
@@XeridoxVisualArts well that was fun
To answer your portal one-atom-at-a-time thing. It depends but probably not.
A portal is usually thought of as a like a doorway or a window that physically connects two places. So probably no disintegrating.
Teleportation on the other hand.
Almost always: They scan you, complete annihilation, and replace you with a 100% identical clone based off that scan.
So teleportation will only be used on items.
Right?
Yeah it depends on whether or not 'space' on one side of the portal is connected to 'space' on the other side (like a wormhole of zero length) which is how Portal's portals are portrayed. But if it's just teleporting everything at the surface of one portal to the surface of the other (and imparting a little momentum) then it'd be a one-atom-at-a-time situation.
So basically "old you" dies and somewhere "new you" is created. The consciousness you got from birth gets destroyed.
@@alkestos As we do not really know how our brain is storing all its information, these information and everything else might even survive the teleportation.
As in one StarTrek episode, were Riker is teleported back to the Enterprise, but due to a force field the teleporter on the planet thought he couldn't be teleported to the Enterprise and rematerialized him on the planet too. Years later they met each other.
Do a multiplayer Monday race where you have to eat objects at different points, would be pretty interesting.
Yes
Destruction derby with portal in front of every car
or even eat eachother. last one standing
@Rhombus call it carnibal derby perhaps with restrictions on car size so the portals can effectively eat the whole car
Yea exactly
If this mod is fully functional in multiplayer (each player can have their own portals) You could make a sort-of demolition derby out of it.
Or one vehicle with a portal chasing and devouring the other player's vehicles. Event ends when the players are teleported to the holding pen/observation area
Can't wait for a portal/portal2 remake!
Me and my friends are recreating portal 1 and 2 they will be out soon on scrap mechanic
How about portal 3
They're kinda is going to be, A free DLC is coming out for Portal 1 that is adding ray tracing
I can't believe you didn't make an infinite fall loop (ie. 2 horizontal portals facing each other (distance doesn't matter, though preferably probably relatively close (but far enough that there is at least room for your entire character between them)
And yeah I would LOVE to see some MM with portals
Vertical portals would work better
I think you have the positioning mixed up. he was using horizontal facing portals. You're thinking of what @arenashley7043 was saying, portals that are vertical facing.
I don't know how the mod works, but I think the reason why you weren't retaining momentum on the portal jump was because of the vector difference. Portal retains relative velocity while Scrap Mechanic is keeping absolute velocity. The difference is that in Portal if you're traveling towards the face of one portal, that ends up being retained 100% the same relative to how the out portal is facing. So you traveling towards equals you traveling away in portal.
In Scrap Mechanic, it's retaining an absolute or fixed velocity meaning you were falling into the portal from that drop, but that meant you had a great downwards velocity when you hit the portal up top instead of it translating into a through/outwards velocity. It's the whole perspective of things. In Portal up is generally up, down, left and right are generally constant, but forward and back change based on the direction that the portal's facing. In SM, all directions remain constant meaning you can't change downwards momentum into anything else besides more downwards momentum. The portal will not change the direction that momentum is carried.
I think a fun Scrap Mechanic Multiplayer Monday would be something like a kind of "battleship" game. You have 1 shooter and 2 ships. The shooter is segregated off behind a wall while the other two have bit of an open court. The ships place down explosive barrels and a seat on top or behind of that barrel and sit there. The shooter then places a portal on a wall facing the opposite direction and then they have a higher section on wall that they place the other end of the portal on. They fire their spudgun into the portal in front of them and it's basically kind of like battleship from there; hit or miss as the shooter zones in.
But how did you not test the portals with explosive barrels or nukes? That knowledge would have opened up so many more possibilities. We need another mod video ASAP of this.
Day 267 of asking for more workshop hunters, and day 268 of asking for more brick rigs
For all of you that wants any of these you can help too
Multiplayer Monday idea: Imagine you have a car with a portal on the front like you already did, but instead of having the other portal on the back of the car, you put it somewhere else entirely. What I'm thinking is that you have a relatively small area that the players have to cross on foot to reach a goal on the other side, and there is someone in a car with a portal on the front and the other portal be back at the start of the challenge, so the driver has to chase down the players and keep resetting their progress for as long as possible. You can also have some safe spots for the 'runners'. There was a style of GTAV custom game with something similar, but instead you just died and respawned if you got hit by the cars that were jumping sideways across the straight runner's platform.
Another similar idea is that you could try to catch as many Wocs as possible within a certain time frame, with the same car/portal idea and the other portal going to a cage of some sort. And you don't even need to build a large arena for this idea to work, you can just generate a completely vanilla terrain world and set a few dozen Wocs free, then wait a bit for them to wander around, and suddenly you have a weird version of Hide & Seek.
with the portal concept being so well known and standardised across games, i wonder if before the portal games existed, if the portal concept was as popular. as in, "have on here and another one there, and you can scratch your back without having to reach behind you"
It's like a wood chipper, would be interesting to make a puzzle map using the portal gun.
You know those blind boxes you put your hand into?? Yea, that would be kind of cool. Could drop people in a bottomless pit, could drop them in a reward, could drop them in the middle of a horde of farmbots, just imagine the possibilities.
I have been falling for thirty minutes!
Spinning portal sawblades would be great. The portals being the swablades erasing everything that comes in their way and sending the debree flying in every direction
Idea: do the portal-squishing experiment but vertical rather than horizontal.
10:00 perfect Multiplayer Monday idea, and *you* said it, so now you gotta do it.
If the portals work on mobs, you could do a game where you put a portal on a car and another above a holding tank, and see who can catch the most of that mob.
They do indeed work on mobs. I just released a video about this yesterday LOL
Check dr. Pixel's mods I'm pretty sure she made a portal mod that works with vehicles. Could be fun to compare them
You can build an small snow removal, the one that scoops snow form the front and throws it away on the side
Can't wait to see Scrapman and his friends start involving these new portals into multiplayer monday!
2:57 depends on what kind of portal you're talking about, if it just teleported matter it would get vaporised down to the quarks, if it literally connected space it would work just fine, the same way they work in portal(the game).
One other interesting thing to note is that a real portal would be spherical, a 2d version of this would be folding space, cutting out a hole in it and connecting space at the edges of the hole, you'll notice that the portal is circular, scale it up a dimension and that circle would become a sphere with the same physics as the 2d portal just in 3d
So fun! But missed a ton of things, what happens when driving into a destructible tree? Bots in portals? Wocs? Wocs eat corn through portal ? Corn survive? Shoot bot through portal? Maybe more!
Ok, this has potential. But it's missing too much to be perfect.
A few things the mod needs to be perfect:
Orienting the camera/character after exiting a portal
If you enter looking at the portal, you should always exit with the portal behind you.
Carrying momentum through
You should be spit out at the same speed you went in
The previous two can be achieved with a non euclidean geometry mod, would also allow you to keep structures from being destroyed. The maker could potentially make destroying creations optional.
Portal size scaling
Bigger portals for bigger creations
And Extra portals and portal linking.
Make it able to shoot out more than two portals, and put a connection tool dot on them so you can manually link them together, that way with multiple pairs they won't get crossed, and so multiple portals can lead to one single portal. And going into one that's connected to multiple portals can spit you out randomly.
Yes, I know this isn't the place to put this, but I'm already watching this video so I'm just going to put it here.
Even though the mod maker should already know these things......
8:50 mans unlocked the plasma drill early 😳
he said there was something in the sky and guess what, there was. i was surprised that he saw it because it was one pixel big i put it on my tv.
so good observation scrapman
10:00, would love to see that, back to the old Multiplayer Monday days!
Would love to see more "Scrap Labs" productions! Experiments are entertaining, and dude dun made a pretty darn fun mod.
Multiplayer Monday idea. create vehicles with one portal on the front, and the other one in a cage (either on or off the vehicle?) The other guys have to run away while the driver tries to 'eat' them.
Try experimenting with explosives!
Also, what happens when you put a portal on a platform And try to push that platform through another portal
5:56 if i remember correctly you can do that with the portal gun mod by Dr pixel plays
Definitely a cool mod.
What if there are blocks pushed into both portals simultaneously
"Rick and Morty 100 years"
Definetly have to do a Multiplayer Monday with this, have a chaser with a portal on the front of their car chasing the others
If its compatible in multiplayer with multiple sets of portals.... Do a gladiator vehicle fight... Where essentially u gotta "eat" ur opponents last man/vehicle standing is the winner
A multiplayer Monday demolition derby with this mod sounds fantastic imho
If you would make a real life portal, it would actually feel like walking through a door or window. You gave a pretty good hypothesis in the video tho. :D
Hey Scrapman, something you definitely should have tried out is igniting a bomb and then putting in through a portal. Would be cool to see whether or not it would still explode.
You forgot about the famous "Infinifall" where you have two portals directly above eachother and you walk into the one on the ground, so you get shot out of the roof into the one on the floor and this keeps going and going whilst building up more and more speed...
Multiplayer monday, with cars demolition, 6 wheel limit, 2 portals on the front side by side, if you each get unique portals, if not, an arena with a big swinging arm with portals on either end.
loved the idea of a multiplayer competition to eat things with portals fastest
A portal is more like a doorway. The car would never fit since the doorway is too small, but you might get a corner of it to poke through, though it would still e connected to the car. When you're thinking of disintegration, you're thinking of teleportation, which does not involve the use of wormholes - what a portal is at a most basic level - 'merely' transmitting someone's atoms to a new location and reassembling them, like a TV does an image.
Fun fact, the most common theory behind real life portals is a wormhole not quite interesting but it what is interesting is that it is also called an Einstein-Rosen bridge
3:00 no because the a portal is warping space to reduce distance and becomes walking though a hole, as opposed to teleportation that would disintegrate your body and move the atoms or build an entirely new body
I'm pretty sure if you got crushed between two portals, you would get infinitely crushed. Also, if the machine is strong enough and your boxed in you could theoretically become a star under all the pressure.
What would happen is you would be crushed by yourself
@@Pancake_12 exactly what I mean
Multiplayer monday idea:
Everybody builds a short obsticle course for a car with a porttal undeneath , so that it just eats the blocks underneath and another portal spitting out the blocks in the back, to race each other on it.
But ask Mr. Lag before.
10:54 UFO CONFIRMED
Good morning 🌄 🌅 Scrap Man!
Snowy here 4:00 AM ish
Love your vids
multiplayer monday idea here maybe? portal gun olympics. you havent done that much with mods in this game and havent done a olympics type MM in a bit so i think it could be cool and nostalgic.
If objects aren't "real" after being portaled, maybe you could try placing both portals on the front of your vehicle to increase the "mouth" profile and hopefully the spew shouldn't effect the consumption of more material as you drive forward.
The portals appear to be able to fit on a panel smaller than the portal itself, which means you can pass a portal through itself.
I would’ve liked to see what happens when you “eat” a tree and can the portals be placed on wedges or slanted surfaces in general
This mod has SO SO SO much multiplayer monday potential! Please do some MM Olympics portals edition!
You need to try to pass one portal through another!!! Building a wall just bif enough to place a portal, and another portal perpendicular to the first one, being push with a piston towards it.
Your button activated car gave me an idea. What if you had it to where in multiplayer Monday, the cars would go automatically and then you would have to use a turret to shoot out the road for the other cars (or their turrets)?
idea: build a portal course for each other then do a portal race through everyones course
A couple suggestions for an MM episode or a couple with portals:
object eating contest.
obstacle eating / tunnel boring race
car-eating demo derby
You and the guys should do a vehicle eating BATTLE!!! Limit the cars to a certain size and do a couple of rounds. It would be EPIC!!!
That getting squished between the two portals reminded me of one punch man taking his hero test (sideways jumps)
This type of portal is most like similar to a worm hole. This means there is no space between the portals so if you went through (assuming you don't notice the portal) it, you wouldn't know that you did.
2 ideas, delete the blocks behind the portals and make a portal eat perpendicularly another portal
Scrapman's next escape room is going to be epic with portal tricks!
I wonder what the next Multiplayer Monday will involve...
What happens if you drop a portal onto a creation or a large mass of blocks? Portal launching catapult?
a portal car derby would be an interesting MM idea
Could you put both portals on the front end of the car, for more coverage, like venn-diagram chipper headlights? Can you drop an object that has a portal on it, through a portal?
Can you put a portal on an arm, like a tennis racquet, and spin it like a sci-fi end mill? Could that make a tunneling vehicle or weapon? Portals on extra long helicopter blades?
You and the guys should do a destruction derby with portals on the cars.
3:15, no because there is no inside of the portal, imagine that it is like a doorway you stick your hand through the door it appears on the other side (intact). just with portals, the door could be connected to the same room from both sides.
GlAdos: This portal is not from Aperture Science. So more testing is needed.
Rick: Yes I *burps* developed this f*** portal.
GlAdos: Testing is fun.
Rick: ... ... *burp* yeh. You are right.
Have an obstacle race where you either have to eat your way through or around the course
Maybe if you put the portals on some blocks that don't have collision, it will conserver your momentum when moving through the portals. I think that the blocks that the portals are on are removing your momentum as you go through the portals.
What you're describing is transporter tech from star trek. A portal is generally thought of as a wormhole basically.
I want to see an object put through two portals at once.
9:50 hmm, yes, maybe this could be a part of a competition that happens somewhat regularly, lets say, for example every monday. And other youtubers could be involved in this competition that happens on mondays. Now we just need a name for it.
Hungry Hungry Hippos. I guess you could do that without portals too, but a head-to-head battle to eat the most would be neat. What happens when you put one of those balls through the portal? Would it be destroyed too?
Projectile launcher that uses gravity/thruster/piston power to propel the object. You can easly aim and change a direction from which force is acting with portal mod
oo you could make a drill vehicle and drill through a creation and look real cool
You should do a multiplayer Monday tournament, where you get two cars with one portal on each, and you fight to destroy the other person's seat before they destroy yours.
You should try making some escape rooms with this mod :D
A destruction derby would be cool with the portals on the front and back of the car and you have to try to destroy/eat the other cars
Portal maze or portal race course for Multi player Monday? Portal race would eat parts of the car if they are not careful.
I remember pixel doing this so it's cool to see it expanded.
The portals would make a fun obstacle if you and the boys did a race or something.
The portal could make for an interesting weapon for a demolition derby type race in multiplayer 🤔
Y'all should do a MM where there is one person who has vehicle with the portal, slightly faster than the others, and chase those others. Whoever is last to survive, wins.
Idea: make a super satisfying shredder where you can just grind stuff using the Porta mod
multiplayer idea: place portals on your vehicles and do a destruction derby where some people try to take one player out and destroy his vehicle
you should do a multiplayer monday with the portals launching them as far as possible because if you can attach the portals to things like cars, maybe you can fling portals with catapults, trebuchets or ballista's to destroy buildings
Portals VS resource chunks! How do portals interact with trees/logs and stone chunks?
Imagine if there was a mod allowing "proper" portals. That would be insane! but as it stands currently I doubt that to be possible.
Multiplayer battlebots where its automated driving and last one moving wins. Small arena so they dont run around for 15 minutes not hitting eachother
I think you lose velocity because your body hits the ground while being teleported so you hit a physical obstacle that stops you. The portals are very thin and they float a bit off of what it's on it seems.
You could make destruction durby with the portals by eating the enemy car
You forgot about portal-ling Cows, Bots, and Kan... Also This could be very interesting for a Hide And Seek episode... or even an Escape Room......... FOR SCIENCE!!!
I don’t know if the portals will work, but if they do you can do a portal demo derby. Or cops and robbers where the robbers are on foot and the cop has a car with a portal. And the other portal teleports you into a jail cell. And the cop has to run over/ eat the robbers.
Cat and mouse game, build a car with a cage in the back to trap players with, one person chases 2+ people and try’s to trap them within _x_ amount of time. Would be fun to watch
multiplayer monday idea with the portals : you have to make portal puzzles for eachother and complete them
9:54 PLEASE make that idea into a MM
Make a multiplayer Monday Competition about who can eat each other's car the fastest
hi ScrapMan, maybe try putting a tree trunk or a rock in it? the unrefined resources. there's oil and chemicals to test with too. (also the bots and wocs)
