You can launch explosive canisters more or less further than the projectiles here. If you attach cardboard to 2 diagonally opposite bearings and weld it all together then slap a bomb on the front and then use however many spud guns you want behind it.

The good thing about using cardboard to launch items is that it makes it soo much easier to load the gun

In scrap mechanic any loose objects interacting with creations or other loose objects are usually unpredictable and glitchy, so try to keep them as minimal as possible. Use mounted spudguns with cardboard to detach items if you need more than a few.

Fun fact: the design with the vertical mag is realistic since some guns use gravity to load one of them is the bren Finnish machine gun

You mean a rifle, a sniper is an occupation (also they're*)

1:40 You and your date when Netflix asks if you're still watching :D

It also might have been a good idea to use some kind of cylinder instead of a 2D square object.

Just a tip, with a piston powered launcher, high speed and low distance gets you the most power

Watching you work in games on complicated designs is always a love-hate thing for me It's impressive and I love seeing the end result. But these videos always make me feel absolutely stupid for understanding a little less than half of the things you do which bums me out again xD

I’ve always wanted to do something like this, but the physics is such a pain. Great job!

Keep it up buddy, love the ingenuity

Congrats on that Brilliant sponsorship! Fits right into your content :D

it's been such a long time since I played one of these engineering games, and this channel is making me want to play some again. I always eventually got discouraged though

Great Video, May I suggest the use of the Bomb Props mod? It has some useful parts like compressed air and CO2 canisters which provide force without destruction (lots of it in the case of CO2) and the modular bomb nose, which not only looks like a bullet, but also explodes as well. My advice is to put a block between the two however (such as a pipe), because the nose doesn't properly absorb most of the force without it, and can fail to exit the gun on occasion.

These keep getting crazier haha. Love the content reid!

Something you might have fun doing in scrap mechanic is the challenge mode, specifically the bot factory challenges which you can find on the workshop. It’s all about creating self driving cars and it basically taught me how to do it.

I likes your videos because it makes me happy when you are happy!

Thankyou for taking up my idea man :D

fast spinning things like wheels could also launch projectiles. Also Controlers are able to store alot of force for example if a door is supposed to open but is blocked by something it will push against it and if the thing blocking the door gets out of the way it almost instantly opens up which alot of people use to do catapults.

i love the mag system great job

You can use spudguns that shoot any destructible block. It will launch anything welded to the destructible block.

in this game when a material is destructible by spud guns they have force transferred to them before they disappear, so lets say you mount a wall of spud guns, in front of that wall you put a wall of bubble blocks of the same size, now this wall needs an extra block on the side which is the only block that can be attached, and that lock needs to be destroyed before the rest, (switch#1 - spud guns for the wall spud guns and switch#1 - logic - spud gun for that one block) and so now the bigger the wall the more the power, and on that wall you can put anything to be launched

A quick tip: Use the vanilla logic debug tools mod to have some great tools for connecting stuff, like parallel connection tool, N to N connector tool or color-to-color connector

You always push games beyond the limits, and I love it!

This worked great!

this is a great way to waste time waiting for my rocket to stop moving down a hill

If you want to use pistons to launch, make them go fast with a short distance, it makes them go faster than with a long distance, 3 blocks tends to be a good size

Spud guns can fire once every 2 ticks, so you really dont need 9 sets. You can just have the first ones alternating

Sounds like you'll like glitch welding ;)

it sort of looks like an mp18 with the mesh at the front and the piece at the side, cool

man the upspeak is strong in this one.

"so i tried doubling up the amount of guns" triples it

another pog upload

Him: lets add more logic so it can repeat Him thinking: WE NEED MORE LOGIC

pro tip the spud gun can also destroy cardboard

You are like the nilered of video games, similar voices too. Making the most random stuff with a whole lot of trial and error

At this point the spuds are the main bullets and the wood is extra

Fyi, not sure if you know this already but the only blocks that can be broken by spudgun or hammer are cardboard bubblewrap and normal glass (Ps: you can use controllers to create tension on a block, if you set a controller to rotate a bearing with a block lets say 180° but then build infront of the block so it cant rotate it builds up tension, if you then remove the blocker the bearing will snap with a lot of force to the rotated ° it was meant to rotate to)

Thank you, I will now take this knowledge into real life.

It's always hilarious to me when you use guns to make bigger guns

Would love to see you try out Space Engineers

"it was nothing crazy" Piece of metal: _disappeared, phased through the ground…_

If U put glitchwelded Guns and carboard on the explosives you can launch them like from one side to the map to the other

Reid, if you put cardboard on a bearing infront of the spudguns then put cardboard on that bearing whatever is attached to the cardboard goes crazy fast and far.

i once made a spinning circle of spud guns with sensors that made them fire when they passed a certain point, it was pretty fast

I coincidentally made an explosive launcher before watching this without even knowing it was uploaded

I can't get over the fact suspension has become a spring now

We need more

Hey Reid you should try to engineer a piston cannon in space engineers

Had the same idea but gave up before I could have a feeding system

"So that working so well i decided to completely tear it apart" -logic

Can wait till this guy discovers how far wheels launch things

Hey Reid love your videos just wondering but next time you do scrap mechanic could you play on a standard map for more visual variety?

If you shoot attached cardboard with mountable spudguns it detaches and shoots far.

Just so you know, the pistons have more power and speed the lower range you set them too, 1 piston that extends to the maximum at full speed is slower that a piston that extends only 1 block.

@justawarper8397

Жыл бұрын

That’s why the piston that extended the spud gun in front of the others was freaking out, because it was so fast, it couldn’t settle down at its intended length, and 1 more thing, you can make a logic loop that makes the spud guns fire insanely fast.

Take a breath fella holy crap

Cartboard is also breakable with spudgun

hey Reid Captain, you should make a Helicopter

Congrats, you're on an ATF watchlist now

More gun videos please, I want to see you get arrested - jk you're doing great with your channel, keep it up!

1:40 - what are you doing step piston

Scrap mechanic ❤

Put cardboard on the spud gums and then the projectile it makes it more powerful

Yes. Is very overpowered.

nobody: ried captian: anyways, i started blasting

if you do piston at 1 and speed to 15 it will launch very fast

This guy’s like the gaming version of nile red

I don't play SM, but I think you should have tried thrusters with sensors acting as the "primer" that the hammer hits to launch them. With my zero SM experience, those might just fly randomly but it seems like a good idea.

Reid appearently does not know that lower level pistons also have less force. same as more distance on the gives a piston more force then less distance on the same piston.

Don’t get me wrong , i love your content, but watching one of these at night puts me right to sleep.

Here is an idea could you try making a spud gun powered elevator to bring you up very high by shooting a elevator box with spud guns underneath.

Me watching a wood coming towards me at 470kmph: 😳 120 cannon balls following it: 💀

And this, my friends, is why we can't have Scrap Mechanic public servers. Just imagine, playing on a public survival server, minding your own business when BAM! You randomly get hit in the face with the volatile remnants of some ranom person's failed experiment with enough force to fling you into the stratosphere.

Ah yes the iconic Kartoffergewehr-21

The next challenge is to nake the same design but instead of using spud guns you use this gun

Hmm yes, use smaller gun to make bigger gun. Sir, you are a genius.

5 twisters and one 2 engines

Nice gun🙂👍

Idea for a vid: Delta robot, definitley a simple ot mechanize an program thing 🙃

I love it 6:26

scrap mechanic is cool because you do as much coding in logic gates as you do actually building

can you just use sensor wire it to loop and loop to one cannon so when it sees bullet is shoots it bc what you did is burst

You should make a mini gun in the game
