Hi kAN just wanted to inform you that vacuum pumps can fertilize plants and place blocks (not parts)👀 Also the left and right steering of your turret doesn't need engines because they added a "bearing lock" (basically hold posission in trailmakers) feature for steering bearings with the lvl 5 seat and you can have the same effect with putting the steering on lower speed and turning on the bearing lock Also put the guns on suspension to reduce recoil

Hey kan, I got an idea on how you could optimize your mining trailer! Remember how your dozer idea didnt work cause the rocks were to have for the little dozer and were getting caught up on the door? I bet making a dozer with a few more wheels, perhaps 6 or 8 in total using real steering would give you enough traction to control the rock on the ground, and heres the kicker: design the trailer without a floor, so all you need to do is push the rocks underneath it into the grinding area, that way they don't get stuck!

For harvesting stone and metal, just have a wall of drills with resource collectors attached directly behind them. The collectors will instantly pick up the rods, then you have two options. First, you can simply place the processing thingy right next to the collectors on the wall to instantly refine the material, or you can move the assembly to processors in a different location using bearings/pistons. The benefit of this system is that there are no loose parts, so you don't need to fiddle with trying to pick up anything using a claw or anything of the sort.

What happened here

To reduce the rise the guns are having, try moving the tilt bearings to be inline with the spud gun barrel so the moment of inertia is lower on the bearing (they have less or no leverage) and you could also put them on suspension if it needs more. It will also help your aim.

Thanks for these videos, I pick up so many great tips, and it's always entertaining to watch and learn!

When it comes to drones and turrets, salty's your man.

Your videos are the best. i love watching and learning how things work, very informative

Maybe you could put the spudguns on suspension to dampen the recoil a bit. At the very least, it should mean that, even if the guns themselves wobble, the turret itself shouldn't change direction.

Tip: add 1 red light in between the other ones to act as almost a red dot laser

Cool vid, bro! I always love your survival series. Keep it up!

This turret reminds me of that one minigame in Spyro A Hero's Tail where you had to mount the turret and shoot the monsters attacking that one guys fruit farm. Those games were always so annoying but I'll never get over the power rush I felt when I mounted a dual turret and fired off seemingly infinite rounds at creatures half the turret's size.

This is sick !!

good idea Kan keep up the great work

A few things, you could put the spudguns lower, directly in front of the bearings, to turn your rotational recoil into lateral recoil, which would reduce kick, you could put suspension pieces behind the guns to absorb the kick, or you could reduce the fire rate of the guns, not only reducing recoil, but also the waisted ammo

I literally called this when you first bought a spud gun

It wasnt a matter of if but when .

For mining you could turn your trailer into something that uses the system of drills on a platform pointed down. You just crush them from the top down. It works pretty fast and you could scoop them up easily

If the guns were in-line with the bearings that control the up-down movement, recoil would be reduced. It’s the same principle when it comes to the Bore Axis on handguns. The closer the barrel is to the fulcrum (hand holding the pistol/ the bearing controlling your aim), the less recoil you feel. By having your spud guns high above your pivot point, you are giving the recoil a lot of leverage to move your turret.

@spartans2383

4 жыл бұрын

This could be fixed by lowering the spud guns on your turret. You could also redesign the pivot system to connect behind the drivers seat instead of underneath. Whatever gets the two closer in-line with each other.

I made a sort of a claw machine for mining using your piston pulsing tutorial, it was super helpful. Thanks! That’s also something you could try for your own mining machine if you want.

For the recoil you could try placing the guns in-line with the vertical aiming bearings (to prevent a turning force), or as others have suggested to use suspension pieces to absorb recoil.

I have a fun, slightly challenging, and interesting build for you to try out for mining rocks. My idea is this: You have a really wide (long?) car, that extends upwards. You drive over the rocks, and mine downwards. There are collectors and a refinery bot on it. You won’t need to worry about the resources jumping out of the way too much. It might be even better if you keep a few drills and move them with pistons towards where the rocks are. Or just a bunch of drills.

This is where we see his monorail practice come in hand

Great content.

perhaps along with the left/right controls, you could use some sensors and some logic to have a third mode where the turrent just "patrols" back and forth from one end to the other so you can focus on just shooting?

You need a tier 3 metal layer on the outside of that wall that would help with the damage but great turret system.

Ball turret style. The seat and turret need to be mounted on TWO bearings for horizontal swivel, one above it, one below it. The gun and seat themselves should have a single vertical swivel joint attached to the rotating horizontal swivel. This will prevent all significant kickback. Maybe place it on an arm system so you can reach it out over the edge of the base, above all the baddies, and shoot towards them, facing your base.

You could extend out a line of 10ish blocks from in between the spud guns, and give yourself a front sight so you can see where the guns are aimed without the strict camera follow

The Mannequin Hand would be a great aimer if the finger was centered! lol As it is now, the best aimer for the saddle is the bolt (turn it's slot the right way and bam!) but i think it's not an lootable/craftable thing in survival. For the seat a traffic cone works pretty well. It _is_ craftable, has 2x2 base, and is 3 tall.

It looks like a good basic design. As you found out already it has some flaws, but you can fix them for sure. You should invest metal for the wall, then the haybots and toadbots have no way to get through.

or, he could have a large weight in the back, and when the gun shoots the piston slide forward, maybe have many of piston sliders, or just slap some suspension on there and like every one else.

You could mount some spud guns that shoot parallel along the wall. And you can fire them like an electric fence. The potatoes shoot along the wall and hit anyone attacking it.

Kan they go whenever you are, you should wait for them in front of the door! nice job!

kAN build your mining machine similar to your auto farm. hollow out the trailer bed so you can park it around the rocks, when you push a button the drills slowly press in from either side, then move back out, then increment over, move in and out, and repeat to the opposite end. put the resource collectors behind the drills to grab the rocks as the drills make them, then when they return to the front the resource processor can process the rocks as you drive home or to find another rock outcropping.

You can fix your base automatically with ‘vacuum that spits uhh’ and you just put blocks on the vacuum also a sensor, logic gates.

tip: put pipe pieces in a S shape towards the aiming point on the last turret bearing, and put the seat on a suspension at lowest strengh to absorb the recoil of the guns.

Ian you should put suspension on the turret so the suspension will tease the recoil not your cart. Like so Ian can see!

A tip kan The "storage" can be a vacuum so if u just make a platform pushing down on the rock so everything gets in small pieces and the vacuum it up with the storage

I don’t know if it would line up properly, but a tiled glass block in between the spudguns might make aiming easier. It would essentially be a fixed crosshair so you could look around without losing aim

for that corner maybe you can use some sort of paddle to push the bots from corner to the front of the wall to use the spudgun then

Idea for the turret mix a timer in with the spud gun loop to lower the fire rate it will 1. lower the recoil 2. use less ammo and 3. give you better control while its firing. Just a suggestion but i am 80% sure it will work.

Kan, hope you know that water physics actually exists. Some people on KZread actually made paddling boats, just not very efficient. Would really love to see you build one.

May be it is not efficient and effective at all but looks great and just imagine that you should walk trough this secured with tourent wall.

Hey kAN, you can place sawblades (or drills) on the side of your wall in order to prevent attacks. Bots are afraid of them.

Instead of aiming through the middle of the spud guns you could rotate them slightly inwards using barings so that by the time they hit an enemy they are in the centre. You need to do adjustments but it works great nonetheless

to solve the recoil problem, you can probably adapt a burst fire circuit so it doesn't throw off your aimas burst fire gives time for the sights to settle

Hey kan Because you have a legal 5 seat you can use rotation lock on steering bearings and it would be very good for this turret.

For mining, I think the sides of the drills do damage like te flat parts of saw blades. I saw a comment about a box so maybe do drills and resource collectors on the sides and a press up top. When you're all done swivel the resource collectors to te refinery bot. You can adapt the size based on what size of rockpile you mine. For the recoi on the spudgun. Try to put pistons and suspension on the back. The pistons will extend based on how far you go forward and the suspension will absorb the blow. You could alternatively put a thicker rail vertically, making it more rigid. You could put rollers on the inside to make the travel smoother. Anyway, I hope you can make your defensive plans work

A suggestion, mount the spud guns on a block that has suspension behind to dampen the knockback (similar to the thrusters on a hovercraft)

Me: skips to end to see final product work and stuff. Kan who worked for hours making and perfecting these machines and inventions: Am I a joke to you? Love your videos. Anyone else do this tho.

Hi kan if you want to make it more reliable at a range you can make a button that fires a single shot at a time this would reduce the recoil and wont hinder your close range fire rate or your weight

I'd recommend a burst fire on the turret, it'll keep recoil down and save on spuds

For the recoil you should put the pitch bearing at the same level (height) as the spudguns(like on the same line of blocs), like that it will not change your orientation when shooting

Hmm good stuff

You could probably put the spudguns on springs to absorb the recoil

Hey Kan, once crops are nearing fruition (harvesting) you can dump water on them and force them to blossom. Meaning if you planted all of them relatively at the same time, once one plant blossoms, you can start spamming water on your fields and force everything to blossom for harvesting. It's something I found out by accident, but I think it's a tip that can come in handy to a lot of players. This only works on the very last growth segment right before harvest stage. Also, for that water side that's a blind spot for your turret; could you theoretically, because I've been trying to formulate how to and I figure planting the idea in a better mechanic's mind is a better way to get it solved, make an automatic triggered rocket sledge to knock them to the front? Like I mean a literal swinging big A hammer with thrusters on one end that will ragdoll bots into tomorrw. I've tried a horizontal spinning version with just controllers and bearings and....you know what happens when you put those systems under too much load. I'm just wondering if it's a plausible concept to use a mass of Concrete 3 on Metal 3 with a Thruster 5 to send hay and totebots to Yeetus and back. I just am not a good enough player to get the resources needed to build something to that scale to test it out nor do I have the know how of the Scrap Mechanic mechanics nuances to know how to force something like that or similar to that to work.

To get away from the recoil... ... put your up/down pivot point in horizontal line to the spudguns .

I think instead of using 4 logic gates you can use one timer, then it doesn't use as much potatos. Usually after you finish shooting a bit you waste a few potatoes. I hope it helps.

You could put the guns on Springs parallel to the barrels to soak up the kick

Crazy idea. Move base airborne with a lift to lower trucks to ground level in an attempt to stop haybots and other attacking “mobs”

For the mining I really like the trailer you have but keep the refiner on it and have a vehicle that just drops off resource containers on the trailer to be refined and stored. Once it's all done the vehicle loads back on the trailer and drive off

The closer to the centerline between the guns the up/down bearings are the less of an issue you'll have with recoil.

regarding the trailer for mining you might be better off having it just be a collector on an arm that can swing out from right next to the refiner to right by the drill or something like that? might work out.
