I'm impressed how much content you put in these videos. Nearly 900h in the game and I've never made anything circular, and here you are with MANY MANY round bois... Keep up the vids bro top stuff!
Thanks a lot dude! I got many more round bois coming this week. Will probably do recording and editing tomorrow since I have a lot of stuff built. Stay Tuned!
@@charleshughes2683 I might do some larger build at some point. Like a space station for example. Right now I've just gotten stuck on experimenting with stuff 😁

1 and a half times the length? so if my radius is 20 (from block 1 to the end of the piston) then I need 30 to connect the two points? is that 30 hinges or 30 hinges + blocks?
Amazing stuff. All of it. Only done some mediocre hexagon platforms myself. But now I have too try some more advanced stuff. And that custom engine/thruster cover looks amazing. Need to use that design on a future VTOL build. You just earned yourself a subscriber. Keep it up! :D
Thanks mate! I was a bit surprised myself of how nice the cover looked. Making small grid custom cover for a large thruster would open up even more possibilities! Thanks for the sub! I've been a bit preoccupied the last couple of weeks but I'll be back✌🏻
Very nice method for making circles. I tried doing something similar a few years ago but we didn't have hinges then and I was forced to try and do this with rotors. I did manage to make a circle but it was not as nice as yours and mine summoned Klang if you so much as bumped it.
I will do so many stupid things with this method :D Like your tutorial, no bs, pure instructions. Small hint, you can use remote access thru the antenna and get a better look at what are you setting up while setting up things ;)
Do it man :D I try to make these videos as compact and packed as possible. I've used the remote access and spectator mode to get some wide shots in other videos. It's quite handy!
The hinges are exactly 1 block in length. So when the hinges are straight the floor is essentially filled completely with no gaps like being one grid although made out of segments. And because I have so many hinges in the ring, the angle between two adjacent hinges is quite small. Thus the gap that is created between the floor segments is also very small and not that visible. Hope this cleared it up 😁
In me and my brother's base on an SE server, he's trying to go super-starwarsey, so i might just have to build that penny farthing to bug him a little bit
@@MjuMeli And not useful for many who play on the server. Not everyone can use creative mode there. In addition, circles for base construction in large grids would have been intersected. Or for ships etc.
@@We-Play-Games Mind, once you HAVE the circles, some applications don't even need the hinges (with 100 PCU) anymore, so you can either remove them entirely (for static grids) or replace them by, say, mag plates (35 PCU) that keep sticking even without power. And even if you do need to maintain the hinge connection, remember that blocks that are not complete always have a PCU cost of only 1 but still continue to work to some extent, including hinges, so grind them down partially to keep electrical and grid connection while saving PCU. Is this Space Whiners or Space Engineers or what?
Nope :D It would have been better with more spokes, but I hadn't built those at the time. My second circle video has more stuff on multiple sets of spokes.

Very true!

@@MjuMeli love it! I'd really like to see a ship or dock which uses your round boi science 😂
Thanks man!

Wow. I'm impressed how stable the circles are.
Keep em comin! Great work!
Me too! I'm experimenting with more stuff and thinking about making another video about it in the coming days✌🏻
@@MjuMeli How has Lord Klang not struck you with lightning and plagues of frogs yet?!

Yes it's both hinges and blocks combined. So ~15 hinges and ~15 blocks. Whatever works for you.
Amazing stuff. All of it. Only done some mediocre hexagon platforms myself. But now I have too try some more advanced stuff.

Amazing ... usually when i put 3 hinges or more together, the planets tectonic plates beneath my feat selfdistruct on lord Clangs command.

How'd you get the floor on that halo ring to fit together perfectly?
The hinges are exactly 1 block in length. So when the hinges are straight the floor is essentially filled completely with no gaps like being one grid although made out of segments. And because I have so many hinges in the ring, the angle between two adjacent hinges is quite small. Thus the gap that is created between the floor segments is also very small and not that visible.
Hope this cleared it up 😁
@@MjuMeli i saw on your halo ring it looked like there was no gap at all, but I could be misremembering
HAH! It bounces! 5:05 :)))
Yup! The game manages to model that quite well.
The SE build system is just ridiculous. Look at the juggling we are forced to do to build a circle.
Still simpler than Minecraft :D

Lol :D Do it! Slap a few thrusters on it and paint it brown, should pass as a Star Wars vehicle any day.
hinges for the win
Yeah they were an awesome addition to the game. So much less tricky and a lot cleaner than using rotors for the same purpose.
So helpful
That circle just had a seizure
Wobbly wobbly
And this, kids, is why the CPU limit exists. So someone doesn't get the smart idea to use 20 hinges for a cosmetic detail.
I mean it's *only* a hundred normal blocks per hinge :D It's true that in most cases you'll be better off with using blocks and whole grids
