@@MrKontrolFreek I don't think I'm going to make a video about it, but if you're interested in learning to do this stuff in game, join the game's discord and start asking around. There are plenty of helpful people there who like to overengineer, including me, but I'm not as active as some.
Hey Matt, I haven't thought about that before, but the one from 15:17 is probably tieing the cars together, so the first one pulls the second one. Then you can make the brigde straight and cheap, and not worry about the boat destroying it, cause the 2nd car already made it to theother side. Cheating just like a dangling road...
I am sorry, but that mental idea is killing me Person: "So, car A will go... Then boats... Then car b." Builder: "can both go so I don't need to deal with the boats?" Person: "But then the bridge will only be one use..." Builder: *eating popcorn while watching car A struggle as it pulled car b* "what?"
I love how your update schedule fits my sleep schedule and I always fall asleep watching them. Not that i find your vids boring, i just find your voice soothing.
My first job was an electrician's apprentice. My bosses would get into heated arguments with various architects over common-sense vs. aesthetics. I remember one time punches were thrown at my boss when he told the architect that he was "a privileged piece of shit that was all paper, and no life experiences". Job site drama lol
Architectural Engineer: Lets built it to last 100 years and be a landmark! Civil Engineer: Lets build it to last 50 years, with yearly maintenance on critical stress points to keep us working! Mechanical Engineer: Lets make it last forever and make Architects and Civil Engineers wonder how we did it!
@@alechamilton1864 Exactly for example in a house in general we do all the engineering and leave it to the engineer to check, but when things get complicated, architects don't have the ability to calculate, like a bridge or dams, in this part we only know the concepts.
I love that you're not afraid of showing people that other designs may be better than what you made but you also make sense of why your design is good. This is true creator content and it's more than most could ever say.
6 months ago I graduated with my degree in mechanical and manufacturing engineering and hearing “Hello fellow engineers” gave me the biggest smile to know it’s true now.
7:06 that's a lift bridge! We got a pretty famous one over in Duluth, really needed due to the bridge going over the entrance into the port, so that the huge lake freighters can go in and out without issue.
Rarely do I resent a long meeting more than when it's just started and I see a notification that RCE has uploaded. Honestly I look forward to seeing the most expensive designs as much or more than the cheapest, some of them are just so damn creative and impressive from a technical perspective! Shmojelfed is a goddamn mad scientist with those hydraulics that fold the entire bridge into itself. Also, throwing in an unnecessary reference to Squid Game in the commentary there but not shamelessly putting it in the tags to game the algorithm?? RCE, are you sure you're a real UA-camr? 🤔
@@RealCivilEngineerGaming that's a damn shame if so, I've always enjoyed the poly bridge vids a ton. Lot of fun with problem solving and optimizations, and then judging the hell out of hanging bridges and unnecessarily architect-ified designs. Nothing better. Maybe if you put a blurry knob bridge in every thumbnail? For a company that loves to demonetize for every tiny transgression, they seem to love promoting videos with big censors and blurs slapped across their thumbnails even more. Best of luck regardless, love your stuff! 👍
Real Civil Engineer's Hour for Little Engineers. "Hello, fellow engineers! Today we will be continuing our work with the Strongest Shape!" "Triangle!" "No you little wankers, knobs!"
I don't know who said it but I heard a quote once it went something like "Any idiot can build a safe and sturdy bridge it takes an engineer to barely build one"
Sweet. Love being able to catch these when uploaded now. Just finished your "real bridges" series, but haven't seen much of what's in that head of yours for this game (except knobs. Lots and lots of knobs). BOOSH!
Honestly, the first tries you had at making the bridge were exotic and overly complicated. Without jest, isn't that _exactly_ what an architect would do?
No, because he was looking at practical ways to make it function. An architect designs for appearance, and then lets the engineers figure out how to make it functional.
@@ke6gwf But he didn't take the obvious and tested route for no other reason than he wanted to design something fancy (in however way you apply the word). The expected and practical solution was stepped over.
because you make our jobs hell by trying to make the most ambitious, good-looking designs. If you had to figure out stresses, strains, deflections, structural integrity, durability, etc. all day using a lot of physics and math, you'd understand.
11:45 is basically the same principle as a cable muscle. but on a larger scale. it's basically 2 dangling bridges, with center tension to keep them straight. quite ingenious if you ask me XD
I work in consulting engineering (do a large amount of collaboration with different architects) and whole heartedly laughed my head off at the architect comment!
So here’s a challenge where you can show off you engineering skills. Make a bridge with the highest safety factor you can within the budget. I.e. lowest total stress possible
I don't like bridges, I don't like civil engineering, I don't like architecture, I don't know what this game is, I don't know who this guy is. Have I watched the whole video ? Yes. Will I watch more like this ? Yes. Might install this game lol.

Some were the strongest bridges I've seen in a while, mighty impressive! Totally deserves booshing the like button

As soon as I saw Bentley’s design, I knew Matt would like it. I like how you censored only the second time. Haha
This episode was extra good.
I made them for Matt, such a great personality and youtuber!

It's not just RCE that hates architects. It's most of the civil engineering community. And it's not even hate, it's more of a strong dislike.

YES
But when it hits 99.9% 💀

more relaxing when RCE playing it :D
7:20 is literally the Ariel Lift Bridge in Duluth, MN. My hometown. Super cool bridge

6:34 OK. I don't even know where to start. That's amazing. Can anyone do this without much trial and error?
7:50 "Why would you do that, Rico?"
Because he's The Saboteur, obviously.
On those drawbridges with extra non-functional dangly bits, I suspect they were trying to get as close to 2x budget/max budget as possible.
I've been waiting for this, thank you so much RCE!
Bently is the MAN 21:34!!!
I’m always amazed at the different types of content people make. Very cool vid
"have I missed a joke?". Danglies are a subsection of the strongest shape?
6:35 never thought i'd hear RCE swear.
Honestly, you're the funniest youtuber I watch!! :)
"that dangling stuff" is actually really important part of bridges (and other structures) to slow down any vibration.
16:50 "is that a tribute to the strongest shape?" 😂😂😂
That guy Shmojelfed, his bridge designs reminded me of Theo Jansen's Strandbeests.
