    Glad to hear Toby is doing well, and I feel the tired. As a father it is something you get used to over time. Another skill you will grow is cat naps... the ability to drop instantly to sleep, and in 15 minutes get a partial recharge on the old batteries. :) Really lookin forward to the release of this, my other half is kind of my Capac in this game, and they and a good friend want to join me in the meyhem that will ensue once we start!

    Always good to catch up with these - a couple of ideas for the crane-truck; how about putting a second hinge at the base, so the whole ramp can fold flat against the catwalks? Then it won't block the cockpit view, I know this isn't needed as you drive from third-person, but a little role-play is always fun.
    This defeats the object of the free-swinging crane controller, but you could link the rotor it's mounted on into the PARK script, so that the scrip will keep it level when you move the main hinge, then you can add whatever design you want to the platform without having to worry about the balance of it.

    Sleep deprived Splitsie is so fun! But there wasn't any explosions, so, slightly disappointed.
    I think, if you haven't already decided on a colour theme, that green would be a good choice for the crane truck, because with that folding ramp, it kind of looks like, when viewed from in front, a one armed praying mantis.

    Consider moving your flatbed ramp to the side of the trailer. Currently, if you Jackknife the wrong way, it’s going to send a spear into your crane rotor

    3:33:30 for your ramp, if you want them to have exactly matched speeds with a nice clean ratio, you want a 14:9 (140 degrees to 90 degrees of travel) ratio. Nearest easy multiple of that is 5.6 RPM on the top hinge and 3.6 on the other two. That said, your 5:3.2 ratio is shockingly close for having been guess-and-checked with only 2-3 attempts, your lower hinges move 99.56% as fast as the "optimal" ratio (which would be 3.2143 and some change). Your guestimation skills are sharp.

    The way I handled cleanup on my own Torch scavenger server was to use beacons. Any player or unowned grid without a beacon (does not need to be powered or complete) would get deleted if more than 5k from a player. Players could build up to three beacons and the build costs of beacons were reduced.

    For that paint color cleanup thing, if you were to have it clean up the default color that your grids spawn as, be the color that gets removed after about 10 minutes from it spawning in. This way a player would have to paint them to prevent despawning, instead of relying on them to enable despawning.

    The hunting grids issue makes me wonder if there's a way through the GPS system to create a GPS from a signal source. Kinda like a "last known location" that can be toggled to keep in the GPS menu, for example. That would be excellent for this scenario and/or pirate bases etc

    Hey splitsie, the controls for Improvised engineering are : -
    R (press) : Grab or drop blocks
    LMB (hold) : Stop free rotation and enable block placement rotation
    RMB (press) : Toggle Holding Position (Grab Point / Center of Mass)
    LMB (hold) + RMB (press) : Throw Block forward
    I think you might have been using LMB & RMB then you threw the blocks.

    I've thought for a while that the solution to hand-moving blocks could be a tool, something like a hand-held mag plate. Something that would default to a rigid hold, and ideally allow blocks to be rotated like they were build previews. I find the problem with existing mods is this 'floppy' style of grabbing and handling that makes maneuvering blocks super frustrating, since you often have so little control over how you grab, and combined with the block physics, you get a situation where they feel like they're fighting attempts to rotate them.

    With how often Splitsie puts magplates onto hydrogen tanks, and how his trailer bed usually has only half of its area occupied, I think he would be better off to just place those extra magplates onto the truck bed.

    • @jkerplay3576

      @@jkerplay3576 The slight (if not minimal) problem with that is that drop. They shouldn't get damaged, but you never know what Klang decides that day. Something that can be lowered might make more sense.
      Maybe put wide ramps on all 4 corners of the trailer, covered with magplates. Filling at most 3 of the ramps up in turn leaves maximum possible accessibility; the ramps can be flipped up for driving, which gets the precious loot away from the ground; and when lowered the blocks only slide down the ramps.

    You can use a sensor for the ramp to do reliable what you want.
    You just need 2 or 3 timer blocks.
    one for folding the ramp an one for deploy.
    The folding one needs to set Hinge 1 to on and Hinge 2 & 3 to off.
    The deploying one needs to set Hinge 1 to off and Hinge 2 & 3 to on.
    (but don't use the toggle on&off for that)
    if a Hinge is on it has to lift the ramp and it is off it needs only resist gravity a little bit so the ramp goes at a reasonable speed down by gravity.
    a third timer can lock everything if needed.
    with the Buttons behind the cockpit, if something goes wrong it can easily be fixed.

    I mostly got use to the constant rattling noise of the rovers until i tried a no-mining playthrough where i tried to use a rover with an assault turret to snipe enemy turrets off of their bases and found it nearly impossible because the camera would shake so much.
    I eventually put a landing gear on the bottom of the rover and lowered the wheels enough for the landing gear to lock, it was the only way to stabilize things. I couldn't imagine what i would have done with the awe scrap mod installed though.

  • @Pystro

    1:50:37 How about a game mode similar to the "can't place certain blocks" restriction here, except the main way how you get most blocks is through economy. I.e. you have to buy all your blocks (except for those that you at some point manage to "assertively acquire").
    If you can edit the selection of craft that the shops sell you, you could make all the "ships" be single blocks. The store wouldn't sell all block types all the time, so you either have to make an exact plan of which blocks you need, or you'd buy just in case.
    It does indeed sound a bit like a huge pain, as you said.

    If you'd like, I could make an easily adjusted crane script with 3 modes of operation (coarse, fine, wrist) for you, which would also auto-level the crane-helm platform. It could show the current control scheme on the helm's display. Also, it's fairly simple the make ramps automatically stow when the rover starts to drive off.

    Idea for a cleanup (not sure if this would work or not): use GPS markers. If a player marks a position with a specific name GPS (say, 'CLEANUP'), then any non-powered blocks within a certain radius gets cleaned up. You can make it even less dangerous, by making it trigger only when the player is a particular distance away from the GPS (say 2km). You could even delete the GPS marker as well at that point.

  • @JeffreyBlakeney
    @JeffreyBlakeney ปีที่แล้ว

    Are you holding down the left mouse button when manipulating things with Improvised Engineering/Experimentation? To throw a block the default is to hold down left mouse button and press the right mouse button. Pressing R toggles grabbing an object, clicking the left mouse button stops the free rotation of the object, and clicking the right mouse button toggles the grab point. The only time you need to hold down any control is with the left mouse button to allow you to rotate the block (but I think you need your hands empty for this to work).

    @splitsie For auto connecting the crane using a sensor, park the truck and connect it, then run a line of blocks from the base to right in front of the front wheels. embed the sensor in the block in front of the wheel. Paint that block bright red, set the sensor range to sligtly over hang that block. sensor drops the connector when it detects the front wheel. If you run another line of blocks from the sensor block back along the line of the truck and paint it another color that would give you a proper drive line to line up for the connector. Put timer block on the sensor to shut it off after a minuet and another sensor and timer block mid truck that senses when the truck is not there and turns the timer block on and off. Of course you would still have to detach manually but you are out of the truck anyway, so eh.
    Hm this is getting complicated... never mind 🙂

    1:41:55 "what reason" the tilt of a fork lift accomplishes multiple things. Between landing gear and your specific design, I don't see any being applicable. If your fork lift more accurately mimicked reality, the best use would allow you to tilt a lifted load partially over the vehicle, shifting the loaded center of gravity farther back to help prevent tipping when breaking foreword motion.

      Auto-zeroing could be dangerous. If the "forearm" pistons are extended longer than the "upper arm", the "hand" part will hit the rover or ground. It could work if you apply it to everything but the upper arm and shoulder, and then fold those two in manually, though.
      Or, as you seem to imply only auto-zero the wrist and hand articulations. Doing at least those would have the advantage that the control directions always stay the same.

    Return and Multiplication in PARK script are so easy and useful. Just set Multi and number twice, one to multiple up and back. Return is just same and sat the return speed. You can use return on same group you use, so is easy to set the grabby end.
