Make a perfect submarine in Scrap Mechanic that can catch glow bugs Perfect means: it must have a perfect neutral buoyancy (carpets seem to be the most neutrally buoyant block in the game, it just floats up slightly so maybe a carpet submarine (plus glass) with a few blocks that sink should do the trick), it must have pitch, yaw, and roll, and be able to travel through the deep ocean. Optional thing that would just add to the perfection: have the option to carry at least one crab (farmbots) and or defeat them in a fight
@@ReidCaptain wdym specific?

Lol, I just found your channel yesterday, and I really like your besiege videos. I haven’t watched anything related to besiege in a few years, but since what I always used to watch was creation and mod showcases, it’s really refreshing seeing someone’s thought process as they build stuff!
I enjoy this series! Seeing parts of a car I know in theory but not in practice is very exciting. I like how you show the parts you keep and the parts you scrap. Learning and engineering is about the successes /and/ your failures. Keep up the good work!
3:40 To my knowledge, unless this was changed, ballast blocks only attach to the thing they were built to, which in this case is exactly what you are looking for! I know this comment is a bit late, but it might help in the future!
13:38 “So I ended up deleting the old one cuz this one worked better”. Dude just spent like an hour and a half at least working on that and just deleted it. He’s a professional builder, takes pride in his work.
I'm new to the channel, but I love how you start from the basics and complicate things in small steps even if you know a better solution from the get-go. By breaking things down and explaining things, you really teach fundamental logic that you can apply in other games and in real life. (Also, the plow blocks have 0 friction. And ballasts attached to eachother are very hard to break. Just figured that might be useful knowledge.)
By the time you're done you'll have a fully functional mechanically accurate car. I love how I'm actually learning something while watching this, keep it up!
the car needs suspension, an engine with more cylinders, realistic wheels, and all wheel drive with a differential for the front wheels and a differential for the axle in the middle.
you should make it a twin-engine, that would decrease torque while increase stable speed and performance, after that try make the front wheels a bit fatter(but not too much) or add another wheels on top of it in order to decrease skipping places.

"I didn't intend to make 4 videos out of this" The year is 2041, Reid Captain releases his 200th episode of this series, entitled: "Making a Bugatti EB 110 Semicentennial Edition in Besiege 3"
Love this series, always liked besiege and wanted to know if making realistic vehicle functions out of pure mechanical means was possible and clearly it is when youre the engineer, great job.
The wheel wouldn't skip if you made ackerman geometry. Basically all you have to do is make the tie-rod (steering arms) mount to the wheel hub further in towards the center of the car. It's also a good idea to keep them parallel instead of having them angled back so much. Also, looking forward to the suspension episode for this car :P
you know this is real engineering because the entire mechanism was completely replaced like three times after figuring out something else works way better
If one wheel is slipping when you turn, you may need to design some kind of differential. Mercifully, differentials are pretty simple; the real challenge is to figure out how to connect the wheels to the differential (which is in turn connected to the drive shaft) in a way that allows them to steer left and right without mangling the axles or the drive shaft. For this, you need a constant-velocity joint. (This challenge is the reason many historical cars used rear-wheel drive, with the front steerable wheels being free-spinning; carrying power through an axle with a constantly-changing bend in the middle is a pain in the ass. But once you solve that problem, you can easily apply it to vertical movement of the wheels in addition to horizontal, making suspension a breeze.)
I love this sort of thing! although, might it have been better to make the rack out of individual teeth instead of the gears? maybe use smooth surface blocks?
You can use that game in that way??? Wow! I only used it to build crappy death machines that shot fire (and eventually caught on fire) Thanks to you imma go give it another go!
Is it possible to stack wheels to reduce the leaning issue? Super cool build. I liked the evolution from "WAY over engineered" to "simple and effective".
Next on the list: Disc brakes; rotors, calipers, and linkage. I don't think you'll be able to do hydraulic linkage, but you can definitely do wire linkage like on a bike or small motor scooter. The calipers and linkage shouldn't be that hard, smooth surface block pistons and bore, with the linkage attached to a powered wheel or gear, pulling on a triangle mechanism to force it to straighten and thus push the piston. The piston will have a wood block attached to the end of the smooth surface block, and press into a wheel that is being used as a rotor. It will work with the caliper pushing on one side, so long as it doesn't break, but it would ideally be doubled up on the calipers, so you can get friction on both sides when braking.
6:04 "i can use a few sliders here to allow my rod to move in and out"
makes sense to me.

I don't understand any of this but the way he says it makes it make sense
That car you've developed iver a few episodes is so cool but looks very amazingly heavy and inefficient.
the most complicated real physics based car in besiege and this isn't even its final form. can't wait for the next upgrade.
you should try main assembly cuz its cool
He would have a blast in Main Assembly, since he's played Dream Car Builder
I wonder how good he is with programming stuff?
the car needs suspension, an engine with more cylinders, realistic wheels, and all wheel drive with a differential for the front wheels and a differential for the axle in the middle.
I'm glad Reid Captain realizes the 600:0 like to dislike ratio on all of his besiege videos, so he's making more of them. You've earned my respect.
Damn we went from longboi to smolboi real quick
Another great one Reid love it

You know what this thing needs? Torsion bar suspension.
"In Theory, It's a Straight Line." *GAME THEORY*
Can't wait to see a fully functional car in besiege or whatever else you have planned
An idea for the wheels - making them much wider will prevent them from bending as much as well as skipping when turning sharply.
6:04 "allow to move my rod in and out"

there's nothing i want more than for you to make a car showing of suspention like wishbone for the front and fixed beam for the rear drive axel. :)
Your on a role with these videos coming out. keep it up!!!😁😁
by next year hic car will end up rising up and destroying humanity
That's the kind of mindset an engineer needs. The will to delete all your work and start again.
love thje series!
would love to see a full car
I believe I can coconut mall with this car
Please keep making more videos on this automobile.
at the end of the series you should shrink it down small enough to look like a actual car and add some skin to it so it looks like on too
YAY NEW VIDEO!!
I now watch two video game engineers in youtube. Fun.
Not even sure if it’s possible but seeing you build a more powerful engine for the car would be cool
I love this sort of thing! although, might it have been better to make the rack out of individual teeth instead of the gears? maybe use smooth surface blocks?
It might help to add a little bit of positive camber and ackerman geometry
use collider scope mod it tells if the block has a colliding point at an area it helps a lot
damn this is so good to watch
You can use that game in that way??? Wow!
I only used it to build crappy death machines that shot fire (and eventually caught on fire)
Thanks to you imma go give it another go!
you could try making the wheels a little bit thicker to maybe increase the friction to stop the skipping.
Make the wheels thicker!!! They look so spindly and fragile.
as a space engineer this feels unholy to klang
I hope you upload this when you get the final design
Can you modify the wheels like with the gears? If yes then maybe making them thicker will increase traction and decrease the bending.
I didn’t know what he was making until the very end
yay but not yay i wanted dcb but poly bridge is good two i mean dcb is why i subbed
