If you build a bridge over the pond, then when you add a sensor, you could push a part right behind you with a piston off, and thus pump on a flat service.
that or a lip or extend a flat part of terrain out over the chem spill or maybe something akin to an oil derrick (ie something like deepwater horizon without the incident that happened)
I work at a chemical plant, that looks like a perfectly sized tanker. You could also build a pier to park the tanker on when you’re getting the chemicals.
That would be a great idea! Or something like wheel chucks built right in the pond, just back up into them and the truck/trailer will be held in place...
Here is my comment on your tanker trailer. Tanker trailers come in Links of 53 feet and 48 ft and 36 ft for doubles or triples. As far as your trailer goes it looks like it's the right length and nearly the right size diameter as they come in all sorts of different diameters for tanker trailer. What is making yours look visually off is the fact that you are trailer tires are a bit far forward. In real life the assembly the rear tires are hooked to can slide forward or backward to adjust the weight that is distributed across the tires. Your trailer looks fine it just looks like the tires are slid into the forward position which is what you would need to back into the water just my opinion
A true legend. Always love when someone from an industry locks on to a tidbit or comment of a gamer then actually makes an awesome comment on the topic. Comments like these are what make comment sections awsome
@@Emiruuu Well, once you make an easy switch system, it really isn't, you don't spend as many materials on vehicles or anything, and this may be better in the long run, but I am not an expert by any means
Honestly, using that term like that is confusing for me (I'm used to landing gear referring to landing legs of a space lander like the lunar lander or the gear on a plane)
Being a trucker for a living I'd say you got that tanker trailer dimensions pretty spot on, maybe 3-5 blocks less on the length and you just need to add a curve to the front & back of the trailer(no more than 3 blocks) & I'd say that is perfect. Also the feet you use to hold up the trailer are called landing gear. If you ever need add info on big rigs your doing in scrap mechanic you can hit me up on Twitter at Madogcotk. Awesome episode, been loving all the big rig stuff you've been doing!
There's a axle ratio of 3.21, so the front wheels to the rear wheels of the truck times 3, thats the distance from your truck rear wheels to the trailer wheels
Couple of truck ideas... 1.) For the trailer lock, directly under the hitch location place a low level sensor that just reaches far enough to detect a trailer hitch. Connect it to an AND block, Connect that to the piston that locks the trailer in place. Add a switch connected to the seat and the AND block. Turn on the switch, and back up to the trailer. When the trailer is in place it will automatically lock. Turn off the switch to unlock the trailer and drive away. 2.) For the trailer stands, place a 1-block sensor directly behind the hitch. When the hitch lock closes it will detect the block and raise the trailer stands. When the truck releases the trailer (or you move it with the build stand) the stands will lower automatically. With those two changes, you can hook up to a trailer and immediately drive away without ever leaving the drivers seat. You can also unhook and drive away... so when you build a truck yard for all your trailers, you could rearrange all the trailers as much as you want while never leaving the seat. (though using the build stand is still faster and easier.)
Here's an idea for you or chemical trailer and getting the chemicals. My suggestion is you build a short dock out into the chemical pond to back your trailer onto to hopefully stop your sliding. Then just deploy off the end of the dock and pull back out
These videos are so fun to watch! I get so many ideas from these videos. If i feel down i watch your videos to distract my self from it. Thanks for the content kan! ❤️
Kan, I think you saw (maybe not) the video when Scrap man made an indestructible box from Warehouse keys. You could make a Warehouse keys tank and see if it can resist bosses and red tapebots as well
nice rig kan. those pumps are really heavy.think you would benefit from making 3 rows of 3 chests inside.. maybe more. then have pipe outlets you attach pumps to when you get to destintion. this way it will look like extending pipes and chests stay inside. could even make it with 2 seperate " chambers " to haul both water and chemicals. i found if making 2 rows of chests and in middle have them connected with a single pipe by chest top outlets, then it suck in water for an extra non existing pump. like if both sides have 3 pumps on them the one side pump 3 water pr second and other one pump 4. i really hope they add a device to fit on pipes and chests like the chute we deliver fruit tru at packing stations. this way we can transfer stuff without taking things apart when pump is aligned. also a pipe section you can turn on/off with a switch would be great. this way we can deliver materials to the right chest in the piping system after fabricating or refining. 2 small parts with great potentiale.
well I would agree but the storage vs fill time would be in a bad ratio but it would be similar to what water tankers do when they fill up from a lake or river (well they back up into the liquid)
I really like the truck/trailer theme you have going on with your survival game Kan. Everybody else builds a custom vehicle for everything, so they have like 5 of them sitting around. I like the multiple trailer thing a lot better, cause it means all your fuel is in one place.

You could try building a bridge like thing going into the chemical pond a block or so over its surface. You would then back the truck onto it, align it with the edge and get to harvesting
Flexible Vacuum Tube would be real cool, so you could build a Vacuum Pump mechanism to deploy into the Water/Chemicals but have a ton of Chests linked together deeper in the trailer for storage (would also cut down the weight strain on the mechanism because chests are heavy)
Build a Pier/dock for the chemical lake so your truck can back in on it and remain level. It will stop the sliding and if not you can add automatic wheel chucks to the pier that activates with sensors once you are parked properly.
hey KAN build a giant gate at left side of the wall then build a road with rails around your base because it will be more easer for your trucks to drive
you should add a water pump out the back wall of your workshop that leads into a chest, so you can take from it and is also on the intake of the concrete maker for faster crafting
Paint the green eyes from your logo on the side of the tanker. =b Good job, fun build! I went with a stationary chemical station that I just roll up to with my regular scout vehicle and collect from.
2 things. If possible I’d recommend using angle pieces to try and keep the pumps from hitting coming in. And 2 try and move the front axle up a bit. Normally trailers have more spread apart axels irl.
Maybe have a vacuum pump in the water behind the craft bot, and link it up with vacuum tubes to the chest next to it. Saves having to do anything there.
Kan: *is a very smart person and can build ingenious creations. Also Kan: *obviously needs a dock for the leveling issue i don't see a way around the sliding issue
It looks about like a milk truck. I hope they add some kind of easy on off connector for stuff like that to keep the lag down. Or anything else you might want to build with attachments.
Little late kan, but maybe you could build a dock at the chemical plant. So that you don't have to deal too much with the wheel chock issues. Also, the terminology for those legs that hold up the trailer is called the landing gear.
kAN, Maybe try building a platform at the edge of the chemical pond. That'll dismiss the problem of you needing wheel chucks, and with a lip at the end you won't need to worry about backing your trailer off of it. And since you lowered the length of the pistons that lower the pumps, you can increase their length if needed. :)
As for the truck sliding into the pond. Build a permanent stall to back into that is u shaped that just barely fits under the lowest part of the trailer, that way you can back into it and it will hold the truck steady as you pump
Truck came out great. It is really huge for what you actually need. Maybe do a truck the size of a UPS truck. They really need to fix the friction of wheels. Especially lateral motion when stopped. It's just way too slick for a physics game. For base improvement, add more chests on the source side for the craft bot.
Make landing legs that hold the trailer up while pumping out of the chemical pond, just use a piston and a tire on its side or other high friction items. Like the legs on cranes or firetrucks
@kAN Gaming You can use a set of sensors and a vacum thingy to make a replaceable wall. Vacums can place blocks, if you use sensors for like each block or make some kind of 1 sensor checking a 3x3 or 5x5 area with pistonts or bearings you can make some sort of system that replaces the destroyed wall blocks.
I think the retracted pumps caught because you slowed them down. You could probably put them and the rear hatch all on the same 1 switch and sequencer. You'd just have to add a third piston for the raising and lowering of the pump assembly and time the opening and closing of the hatch. Heck, if you plan on making trips in the future, you could make a level platform for parking the tanker truck on like the others are saying, and just hook the pump mechanism to activate with a sensor aimed at a spot on the ground looking for a color. You back in, it auto extends and pumps, you drive forward just far enough to stop tripping the sensor, wait for the pumps to get put away, then drive off again.
Hey kan, I love the videos , been watching the whole survival series since the first video. I’ve noticed on all your trailers you have a stoop on all your trailers , how about building a regular semi trailer. Just so it’s a traditional semi truck and a semi trailer. This trailer looks visual appealing
Some ideas: Tree harvesting truck (I know many others have made one, but I think you analyze things differently than them and itd be neat to see what you make.) Big bot killer car (dont use spud guns. Instead fling them in the air and they die from fall damage.) Small bot killer vehicle using crushers. Some way to harvest glue clams and oil efficiently. Burned tree harvesting vehicle. Build up your base some more.
i have an idea kan, you should put the trailer park on top of the garage, you can build a ramp if you want but i think just welding them on top would be good
Suggestion: Use Concrete 2 for an impervious wall. Its cheap to mass produce and Tote/Haybots wont even try to attack anything at or over durability 6 (concrete 2, metal 2, wood 3). You only need one strip about 3 blocks off the ground on the outside of the wall, then all you need to worry about is big reds. I use a puny concrete 2 fence and afk farm without any defenses, they just stand outside then run away in the morning, or use it to funnel them into an auto-crusher for the loot
Make a dock at the pond, back your trailer up then drop the pumps farther down, the dock will be level so you won’t need wheel chalks
Although you could have a little three-blocks-high wall around the edge
you cold also just have a lil u shaped wall that he backs into on the edge of the pond
but the problem is he needs to put supports under the dock and while he is doing that he will also get damage from the pond because of acids
@@jellylightningii5959 thats y he should just build a short wall on the edge of the pond
@@jellylightningii5959 But if he anchors it in the ground it would be fine.

wow smart
Just have a lip on the edge of the pond, no piston needed
i was going to say pretty much the same thing
that or a lip or extend a flat part of terrain out over the chem spill or maybe something akin to an oil derrick (ie something like deepwater horizon without the incident that happened)
Like a little pier, with a lip around the edge to stop the trailer sliding into the chemicals.

Hi, the proper term for the stands on the trailer is landing gear. The pin is called kingpin and the hitch on the truck 5th wheel hitch btw

I think the tank looks perfect Kan
Build yourself a ‘loading dock’ with integrated stops for the trailer’s rear wheels.
I love seeing kan playing scrap mechanic. He is a marvelous ingenior.
There's a axle ratio of 3.21, so the front wheels to the rear wheels of the truck times 3, thats the distance from your truck rear wheels to the trailer wheels
well that is not always the case but a good rule of thumb and the tanker feels a bit short but it's kan's choice in redesigning it

like so Kan can see
You can click a repeat button in the craftbot to not need to click constantly if you need stuf in bulk.
See if the plants have enough friction to stop things from sliding
Floor looks fantastic!
Could u make a bigger boat that can go on land and explore with it

The tanker looks perfect the other trailers look to short
I have liked some comments about docks to back up on & adding my own, you need a dock. That pump module is cool & the trailler is awesome, keep it up.
Kan, I think you saw (maybe not) the video when Scrap man made an indestructible box from Warehouse keys.
You could make a Warehouse keys tank and see if it can resist bosses and red tapebots as well
i think the splash damage might damage all the logic and stuff inside the indestructibe tank unless i’m wrong
Yep... I believe the explosion eill destroy everything insides but not the garage keys
nice rig kan. those pumps are really heavy.think you would benefit from making 3 rows of 3 chests inside.. maybe more.
then have pipe outlets you attach pumps to when you get to destintion.
this way it will look like extending pipes and chests stay inside.
could even make it with 2 seperate " chambers " to haul both water and chemicals.
i found if making 2 rows of chests and in middle have them connected with a single pipe by chest top outlets, then it suck in water for an extra non existing pump.
like if both sides have 3 pumps on them the one side pump 3 water pr second and other one pump 4.
i really hope they add a device to fit on pipes and chests like the chute we deliver fruit tru at packing stations.
this way we can transfer stuff without taking things apart when pump is aligned.
also a pipe section you can turn on/off with a switch would be great.
this way we can deliver materials to the right chest in the piping system after fabricating or refining.
2 small parts with great potentiale.
It should take 200 seconds to completely fill, or 3 hours 20 minutes in game time.
i like it as is it looks realistic in size. keep up the good work!
Cover the pond with a large platform just below the surface
Nice trailer
How about fill the whole trailer with chest and then just put pumps at end so it would be like 10 chest of chemical
well I would agree but the storage vs fill time would be in a bad ratio but it would be similar to what water tankers do when they fill up from a lake or river (well they back up into the liquid)
I was thinking this, I know he's going for a truck and trailer theme but this just seems like a massive waste of metal
Are vacuum pipe T's even a thing?

You can make a cycle system on your crafting bot. Making it automatically feed the in and out. And having it have a lot larger capacity.
when I loaded this video, I immediately got an ad for the one and only... *Raid Shadow Legends!*
Just something that could be cool is having a huge tube system that pumps chemicals all the way to your base into a storage system.
Is the drone battle vid comeing out? I haven't watched it yet causes I want to see it from your perspective
You should put your logo on the side of the tanker for looks and it would look cool.
