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

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.

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!

A tower of rotors all rotating in the same direction at full speed is pretty cool

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.

As soon as I saw how long he made his rotor contraption, I just started laughing

7:47 - Imagine the negative G-force you feel going from 580kmps instantly to 100kmps... that's gotta be enough to rip you to pieces.

put 2 pistons on a moving grid already at 110ms. pistons will extend even at 110 meaning it will push you faster.

When trying railgun impulse, did you try setting off the jetpack instead setting off the dapeners? maybe the game detects the jetpack on but dampeners and sets the max player's speed to 110m/s

Normally people say first!

for your catapult i found if you put a rotor on you merge block that is locked then put a seat on that when you launch your on a subgrid so you still go at the same max speed

Years back I use to put triple piston on a ship accelerate max speed to target then launch the piston projectile. I think now Keen made unfinish blocks no damage so you can't cheap shot anymore.

Now I wonder if there's a way to reach 5 million metres a second... but I wonder if I could build a system that uses rotors to make a high rise 3D ferris wheel type system.

Now this is a challenge!

imagine launching subgrid heavy armor balls into the enemy base at high speeds

put a rotor on a rotor both turning in the same direction at highest speed or dont even stop there u could go further and repeat it again and again

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.

I would imagine if the rotor detached its head, the arm would still (perhaps) behave like a subgrid?

@Zer0sLegion

2 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately not. As soon as it's detaches it updates

Have you tried stacking rotors? First rotor spins the second so it's moving before its even on. Turn it on and it's speed is added to the current speed. So on and so on for a dozen should get you moving pretty fast

Spinlaunch in space engineers?

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).

Try putting a motor on the other end to trick the game when you detatch

I definitely enjoyed and learned a few things - I wonder if there are new ideas for you to try next ?

You should have done this in Space on an Asteriod. more space and not so much G-forces. 6:40 :)

My fastes test got up to around 1600ms with rotors, g drive and thrusters at the end of a long arm...

Why don't you attach a rotor to the thing your trying to launch so it becomes a sub grid?

Maybe try making a gravity wheel?

Clank-Drive maybe?

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
