In all of these challenges, melee has always been off the table, but I'd like to see a battle where you're strictly only allowed to use melee so it'd be interesting to see how you'll design a functional melee weapon
Theyve done this in the past but it would make a great vid after all the recent updates They could even combine this concept with the top comment (2v2 but the teamates are tethered together with the power couplings)
@@Checkered-Vaporwave yeah I was specifically thinking about this with the electric couplings in mind when I saw scrapman accidentally make an electric whip
I think what ScrapMan failed to realize, was that the recoil tossing his weapons around, was overcoming the fact that his aiming was targeting empty air. So he was getting good hits at random lol. With the no recoil blasters, he hit nothing... TBH, not sure how Yzuei didn't have the same issue in that first round.
im assuming Yzueil was getting hits because Scrapman's drones were being tossed around. Doesnt matter if they are aiming for the donut hole, when the drones keep dancing into said hole
Got this idea the other day, for an evolution challenge with a twist. I've called it a mutation challenge and the basic idea is, you do a race, a dogfight or battle bots like regular evolution, but each round you keep your own vehicle and you pick a random "mutation". Those could be positive like additional wheels, or shields or negative like i.e. +100kg in front when building a plane or big wheels on the left and small on the right side. Then you have 2 or 3 min and additional power cores and block limits to implement that mutation in your creation. I think battle bots or king of the hill would work best with this concept.
I have an idea, make a battle with a creation orbited by its weapons horizontally, (so the weapons are connected with power couplers and spin around your build) this adds an interesting challenge with logic because you have to make your guns not shoot at yourself, only the ones on your side and front of you will shoot when gets on your back to automatically disable.
I feel like the flopiness is helping him in this fights, because his Center of Mass is constantly changing, making his opponent miss more. Also, love the SpongeBob Fish at 8:52.
Couldn't you have made a square with the power couplers and just angled some parts with the steering hinges to make a "circle"? Like on the last ydib episode
Yeah, since he already experimented in the fighter squad battle, I'm surprised he didn't default to the same method here. I know they're building on a time limit, but with a bit of planning ahead an octagon is evenly divisible (Cockpit on top, 6 guns, and an extra dummy section on the bottom all at 45 degrees, or 22.5 if there's a hinge on either side of the coupling)
I genuinely wonder if it's possible to make actual drones in Trailmakers, using logic blocks and sensors. A fight like that might be pretty neat, where the mother ship's only goal is to evade the other person's drones. I don't have the game (poordom~) but reading from the wiki, it seems like you'd use Angle Sensors to line the drones up with the enemy, and distance sensors to have them move in close and hold back at a certain distance (to avoid melee) 🤔
I want to see helicopters made with the power couplings! It would be interesting to see how they react, plus having the propellers floating in the air above the creation but still providing lift sounds sick!
Not gonna lie I miss your old builds where everything you made was basically just a big cube with some wedge pieces, but it was like insanely overpowered
so, for scrapmans, the way to avoid the floppiness is to have three or more points of attachment that aren't in line with each other, so using the large steering hinges and 2 by 4 blocks to create a 2 by 4 area and putting 1 coupler at each corner would have made it significantly less floppy
✨MAGNETS ✨ Edit: By that I mean He probably could have connected the bottom ones with some sort of magnet system and a final drone onthe bottom (that couldn’t have a weapon)
An EMP version of these coupling battles might be interesting. I wonder if having them on toggle will cause a light show if they're hit by an EMP... hmmm...
I had this idea recently, which I thought could turn out pretty cool. You could build some arresting wires, set them up on the aircraft carrier and try landing a plane with a hook into them
Now how about a motorcycle gang war/racing? Everyone builds motorcycles connected with invisible power couplers, one weapon per motorcycle. The quantity of vehicles could be 6 like with these drones, or it could be whatever you guys decide. All the rules from the previous races (like the pod race) should fit. I feel like this could be fun. Kinda mad max style groups of vehicles high speed chase/battle. Hope you like the idea!
Scrapman, I have an idea. You could do a 2 v 2 with 2 cars verses a tank. I have the tank that you can use. The name is 229807. Also, you all build a car with whichever block and power core limit you think would be fitting. (This is just a suggestion so please don’t think that I am forcing you to do it).
You could have put and anchor block on last weapon on each end.The idea is when the weapons make the 30 degree arch when each end hit one another the anchor blocks would activate holding each side together making a circle
This is late but i think you could have connected the bottom by extending downward to begin with. Run them in parallel with an additional downward facing hinge attached to the main cabin on either side and connect them out the bottom, then you keep all the hinge programming the same but have one additional set that rotate out (up?) 90 degrees.
Not to be an overly correct boomer, but somehow it always lowkey triggers me, when Scrapman nearly always mentions himself first in coop vids..."me and xyz" just strikes me as a tad impolite, :/.
Do you love Jesus? If you want to go to Heaven with him you must repent from your sins and Read and Obey the Bible everyday! You must preach his word to others! Jesus died on the cross so that you can have eternal life! He is the way, the truth, the life, and he will always be! He loves you, God bless!
Suggestion. Train Battle like those you have done in the past BUT instead of adding more carts, start with 3-4 carts each connected by power coupler and add an additional power coupler each round. Make the rains get real long and floppy
for your next plane/space ship battle you can have to two trailing guns(with invis couplings) with small wings or something that are laterally and vertically offset so your opponent's auto aim, aims behind you
love the aesthetics on the cockpit. would make for a good podracer design. our guy just did a scrap mechanic about turning a square into a circle but completely forgot it was possible. i know its harder in trail makers but even is he just a made a square with a blank pod in the center bottom it would have accomplished exactly what he was going for.
I miss when their are 4 people with the properties of a sandbox mixed with a 1v1 it often ends in a single blow i don't know i have always loved his channel but i feel without 4 people it leaves something to be desired maybe bring in a couple randoms from the community (not me i don't have the game) but i don't know it just doesn't seem as interesting to me as much as a 4 player match
IDEA: use the couplers to make a crossbow type vehicle that points up and launches at your opponent. Similar to your surface-to-surface video where you had thruster rockets. Do the same but use the power couplers as the launch force
Scrapman you should test the power coupling's durability, its tensile, and bend strength (and idk if youve done this, but try putting 4 power coupling in a bundle and twist it)
Of course the center of mass is influenced "on the go", otherwise you couldn't build walkers or transformers aso. If the center of mass stayed fix, all those creations wouldn't work right.
Challenge idea: a row of ships connected by a few couplers (for stability reasons) basically fleet battle (have one command ship and several other ships following it)
I think you guys should try building a paraglider like vehicle where you have a wing overhead connected to a lower vehicle that provides the thrust. Use power couplers like the cables between the two and if it works, then battle!
I would like to see a build challenge where you both have to build things in the same area, utilizing the glitch you just experienced today, where you can't both build in the same location
I feel like you could've added hoverpads to the last weapon platform on each side and then connected them with power couplings and possibly added gimbles to each platform for stabilization if needed
Scrap man I got the link to wolf Inc just type wolf i.n.c in the workshop but you have to put the dots or you get a nuke? But there you have the link do a video on this these mega builds are mega yeah.dots
Hearing the initial explanation, first thought: hope there's a drone frigate design a la Homeworld 1, each drone connected to the main ship, with perhaps overlapping shields on said drones.
How about for Monday you can try and make jumping fighters inside that hollow planet, you can be bouncing around the inside while trying to shoot at each other
With the addition of these energy strings allow us to create these drones, it will be a matter of time before someone builds the Gundam Aerial from the Witch From Mercury anime.
You could have used the large steering hinge and put 2 of the where each normal steering hinge so you could have had 4 times the amount of power couplers making it 4 times the strength
IDEA: How about 2v2 vehicles, but you must be tethered to your teammate with a string of these low strength couplers?
You could also do that with any vehicle
Oh my bad I thought u said cars not vehicles
not a bad idea
This would be amazing
That's a great idea

build a net gun
But impossible
Too complex
Try using the complexity
Day 173 of asking ScrapMan to play crossout.
Keep on man he'll do it someday
I hate cross out personally It's a heavily paid to win game And it's not really his style

should have added at coupler with a anchor so you could attachc the bottom together and it wouldnt be that floppy.
I was screaming at my screen for that
I'd rather build it in a square shape (one drone in each corner and each middle of the side) and then use hinges to round it up
anchor pins dont attach to the creation they are on itself
@@efu1370 really? I didn’t know that. Thanks for telling me
Do a ski/snowboard race on the snow island!!
Would be cool. First, straight race, then, add weapons and Mario Kart it lol

Seeing Scrapman's drones flooping around reminds me of the segmented arms of Project NIGHTMARE from Metroid Fusion/ Other M.
RACE IDEA: Power coupling train race, those were really chaotic and fun
Maybe make a melee only challange, where you surround your drone in mini unarmed drones/pieces and ram into eachother
8:50 hah the fish good one editor.
15:00 :Yzuei and Scrapman having a casual conversation
The power couplings in the background having a seizure
It's a good day when scrapman uploads (day 2)
Every morning I wake up eat and wen I have lunch I watch his videos
who wants scrapman to put this on the workshop
You know what trail Akers needs to add ,1x1 servo
Day 103 of asking scrapman to test how fast emp is in trailmakers
Hey scrapman can you do some more instruments of destruction and build your own designs try to build something like the ship from the recent one 🎉
Idea: drone swarm BUT the drones detach to hit the enemy individually (auto-drones)
✨MAGNETS ✨
Edit: By that I mean He probably could have connected the bottom ones with some sort of magnet system and a final drone onthe bottom (that couldn’t have a weapon)
An EMP version of these coupling battles might be interesting. I wonder if having them on toggle will cause a light show if they're hit by an EMP... hmmm...
I wonder if ya coulda doubled up your Couplers if ya had used Large Hinges oriented up and down instead of the Steering Hinges...?

Scrap man if you are reading this if I can get in the same game as you I can show you my own wing les plean it is very good
I need you to do a test, Scrapman. If you place powercouplings on helicopter serbos ¿Do the couplings colide with your own creaton on spin?
15 min plane 30 min plane and one hour min plane or with boats or hovercrafts?
Build a vechicle that launches a graple hook and throw's what ever has been grappled
@scrapman you could use anchor pins and make them attatch 7:33
Cool idea would be to use the power coupler as a rope to tow or fly something to a destination

Also, you all build a car with whichever block and power core limit you think would be fitting. (This is just a suggestion so please don’t think that I am forcing you to do it).
Oh, and also the tank has two tiny cannons, and a tank cannon.
You need to test at some point if angle sensors at the end of a few power couplers actually changes its angle as it flops around.
Smoking is injurious to health 11:17.
Do not smoke.
You should do a fighter jet dog fight without aim assist
It looks like your arms flopping around 😂
I feel like Scrapman forgets what he does in previous challenges because he could have put pistons to connect the arches to make them more stable.
The power couple is to long
You could have put and anchor block on last weapon on each end.The idea is when the weapons make the 30 degree arch when each end hit one another the anchor blocks would activate holding each side together making a circle
these builds came out to look futuristic. they should build with a random theme to their builds like "a midevil helicopters"
Make a volley of attack helicopters
How about a bunch of drones that each only have one component? One has gun, one has engine, one has left wing and another has right wing.
