    Space Engineers is a voxel-based sandbox game set in space and on planets, developed and published by Czech independent developer Keen Software House. In 2013, the initial developmental release of the game joined the Steam early access program. During the following years of active development, Space Engineers sold over one million units. In total as of 2019 the game has sold over 3.5 million copies In May 2015, for approximately a year and a half, the game's source code was officially available and maintained by KSH to assist the modding community. On December 15, 2016, the game entered Beta and was later officially released on February 28, 2019.
    The game is a sandbox game about engineering, construction, exploration and survival in space and on planets. Players build space ships, space stations, planetary outposts of various sizes and uses, pilot ships and travel through space to explore planets and gather resources to survive.

    The game has a much higher speed limit for rotating grids. If the limit was 100 m/s, your ships would turn pretty slowly... so the game is coded to allow speeds above 100 m/s when rotating, especially when you're rotating while moving.

    • @coolmanthecool603
      @coolmanthecool603 8 місяців тому +2

      this summary is completly wrong, the speed limit is a calculation of your velocity, rotation doesn't add velocity, it changes your position directly, which isn't counted as speed.

  • @marcusinfestus1333
    @marcusinfestus1333 2 роки тому +32

    I've seen someone use a hinge, connected to a large hinge, on a rotor. I don't understand what I was looking at, but when they broke the ship off the hinge it could go well over the limit. It was highly unstable if I remember right...
    Its is something to do with the ship believing itself to be a subgrid.
    Oh! You totally covered that!

  • @KptKosmit91
    @KptKosmit91 Рік тому +13

    You can also basically double the speed of the rotor method by placing a small grid attached by landing gear at the end of the rotor arm. When you're sitting in a cockpit, the game shows the speed at the center of mass, which for the large arm is in the middle of it. when you're in the small grid, the COM of the small grid is right on it
    The small grid I used was just a landing gear, small reactor, antenna and helm, so i could remotely activate the spinning rotor
    Also, i don't know how it happened, but when i removed the large grid that had the rotor on it, the small grid was sent flying at about half the speed (~325m/s), *without* slowing down. I did this test in space, and checked the subgrid speed with space master. No speedmods, so it was going over the speed limit
    I confirmed it was indeed going over 100m/s by trying to chase the antenna signal with an astronaut, but it kept getting away very fast even though i was going 110m/s - so it really was going what the space master menu was showing
    edit: reloading the world will cause the game to update the speed if it's going over speed limit.

  • @thomasmiller8289
    @thomasmiller8289 Рік тому

    Ran this same sequence of experiments much earlier I'm space engineers history and at that time you either were free standing or in a cockpit. If free standing in a little box on the end of the arm, you phased through the arm shortly after hitting the player speed limit. Also the speed measure was off due to your constantly changing vector. The second you entered a cockpit though, the arm immediately slowed down to 100. So you could cause ship parts to break the limit, you just couldn't enjoy it yourself.

    catapult should not break if you use connectors... so "propulsion" rotor > any length of blocks > connector 1>(here is where detachment happens)connector 2 > any block that creates subgrid (piston or rotor or anything else? might be redundant) > "control panel" (pilot seat for immersive experience xD). alternatively and possible even easier to implement, is use of landing gear instead of connectors (no hassle with connecting them).

    100m/s is just so the game can play on a potato.
    I use a 1km/s mod because any faster and I run into asteroids.

    this absolutely means nothing, because you cannot use it to propel a ship, and the principle of the furthist part of the rotor being faster, cmon man, that is simple ratio knowledge and it is used all around us every day, they most obvious example of this would be the gearing of just about any vehicle, they all have one or other way of transferring power from small to large gears to give more speed, even bicycles use this method. gee my eight year old knows this

      No one said this was a practical use for breaking the speed limit, only if it could be done.
