    Showing an example of stable ship hull design would be a good idea. A line of hull shapes with the advantages and disadvantages of each one. Still a fantastic video! Also uploading the finished product of every video for the viewer to play with would be a good idea, give new players the opportunity to mess with the basic shape.

    • @Fretti90

      my thoughts exactly! Have them side by side and explain the diffrent pro/cons with them.

    • @kirbyis4ever
      @kirbyis4ever 7 років тому +8

      TheBorderlandsGuy Yeah, he also didn't explain that making the boat wider will stabilize it.
      Ideally it would be nice to go over things like:
      Bigger cross-sections means bigger radar and sonar return
      Wider = more stable
      Smaller front cross-section means faster.

    • @88Factor
      @88Factor 6 років тому +2

      I agree. I actually find hull construction is one of the least covered parts of From the Depths in online tutorials, and also one of the most difficult. I can get basically every other part of the game down except hull construction at this point.

    I mostly just use hydrofoils to stay stable as whenever I try to make keels work, the boats decide they want to be submarines.

    • @Jojob541
      @Jojob541 7 років тому +5

      you dont really need one though, I actually managed to use them without a tutorial (they have really good explanations on them. basically, you need 3 pids, one for altitude, one for pitch, and one for roll.
      for altitude, put thrusters on the bottom, put test stim 1 to the altitude you want (if you are making a hovertank to fly at 10 metres, set it to 10) and check "test stimulus 1".
      for the pitch, make the front set of thrusters "thruster reverse", leave the back ones "thruster" (or maybe it was the other way around, i dont know right now, so reverse it if the vehicle starts flipping) set the second pid to "pitch", leave the test stims at 0 (that controls the pitch angle) and set it to "test stimulus 1".
      for roll, place another set of thrusters on the vehicle, one on the left and one on the right side, set the left ones to "roll (LHS)", the right ones to "roll reverse (RHS", put the third pid into roll mode, leave the test stims at 0 and set "test stimulus 1".
      Now check how fast the vehicle corrects altitude, pitch and roll (set the test stim 1 to a strange value for a short time, then change it back to normal). If the vehicle takes too long to correct any of those, set the kP.Gain higher.
      You now have a working hovercraft with pids.
