  • When in doubt, add more flamethrowers. If that doesn't work, add more flamethrowers. If that doesn't work, you should probably just give up since the task you are attempting is either impossible or does not involve oxygen.

    Sorry for missing my Wednesday upload, I've been working on a big ksp video that I've teased many times. It is proving to be extremely difficult though, so I think I'll have to split it into two parts. Hope you enjoyed the video, and let me know what else you want to see!

    I’m always astonished what people can achieve in a (relatively) simple building game (evidence: the literal incendiary cannon you’ve built). Very impressive sieging!
    I also think I may have an idea of what you could build in a game - a springald. It’s a medieval siege weapon similar to a ballista but built in a rectangular frame and inward-swinging arms. It’s up to you which game to create something in though, I imagine making one in Poly Bridge would be a challenge.

  • @gremlinman9724

    the logs only caught on fire in slowmo because of the way that besiege (and most other games) simulate physics objects. if something is moving super fast, it only simulates where it would actually be once every frame. in this case, since it was moving so fast, frame 1 of movement was at the wheels, and frame 2 was past the flames, so there was no actual simulated frame wherein the logs were touching the flames. slowmo increases the amount of simulated frames, so even though it was moving so fast, there was still a time where the flames and the logs were touching.

    A good way for ammo might be to 'shelve' the ammo on racks above the launcher, each with it's own piston. When you need a round you activate a button, and maybe using a logic system it would consecutively activate those pistons to push the next round into the chute down into the launcher itself.

    8:45 not sure exactly as I never programmed a physics game, but I would guess that in slow motion only the values are slowed, but using the same number of physics frames to simulate. ( Ex.: 60 pfps in 1x time, and 60pfps in 0.5x time. )

    • @monetary_episode494
      @monetary_episode494 2 роки тому

      In ClusterTruck, a game that has physics and time slowing down or whatever you want to call it, you can slowdown time then jump. This had a chance of sending you very far. I'm not sure what makes it like that. But it's physics are pretty similar to besiege.

  • @circuitgamer7759
    @circuitgamer7759 2 роки тому

    If I'm remembering correctly and braces don't have collision, could you have reinforced the wheels by using essentially 3 or 4 bar linkages from each wheel to a dedicated swivel joint mounted directly to the frame? Just a guess, but could be useful if it works.

    Instead of using thick wheels to increase speed, use smaller wheels, so it's more stabil.
    edit: like seriously. I stacked 6 small wheels, added a divider, then another 6 wheels on top, linked the top wheel of the bottom stack with the bottom wheel of the top stack, linked bottom non-wheel, divider and top non-wheel to each other, and added 2 small propellers to the top wheel, and it accelerates from "standing still" to "can longer see the ground" in around 1 second on normal speed with breakable mode on.
    This is a slightly simplified description of the machine I built, but it's obvious which parts need tweaking to make the thing function. It is also not the most efficient way to move fast, and the whole thing spins, which is also bad, but surely, you still get the point.

    (this comment is about using flamethrowers efficienly in campaign mode, and is not relevant to the project in this video.)
    If you want to reduce the amount of fuel a flamethrower uses during the campaign, but don't want to sacrifice distance, you can hook it up to a clock, that activates it for 0.03 seconds, then deactivates it for 0.01-0.05 seconds. the timings may be wrong, but play with them a bit, and I'm sure they'll work fine.
