This is THE BEST space engineers video I've ever watched. Just screams quality. Widely informational, detailed and quite entertaining to watch at the same time. Explanations are extremely clear and yet not over-simplified. Just right on the spot. And the editing is over the top. All the cuts and transitions are right where they are supposed to be and all little details and "cinematic cutscenes" are just perfect *chef kiss* It's very sad that such topic is not widely popular on KZread, with the amount of effort this video probably has taken to make you sir deserve a bigger audience.

my guy, you are a literal genius: you've streamlined and updated possibly the most cohesive and applicable method for mechs into something even better. that is true innovation. Like the engineer from tf2, while more gun is a solution i've seen you use, like the engineer you also use your absolutely gigantic brain to find solutions to problems that lay in plain sight. It's absolutely clear your main strategy is Improvise. adapt. overcome. thank you black armor, for getting me into automation in SE.

Explanations are as streamlined as they can be and and you even gave good tips for the design itself. Absolutely fantastic work , nothing else to say except bravo!

Those spidermechs in the intro gave me very strong Supreme Commander vibes

I didn't even come here with an expectation that I'd want to build a walker, I just stayed because of how well organized and voiced the video was and appreciated the production value. Quality video, quality world, thank you for your dedication to the modding community.

Ah sweet mission accomplished then. Thank you

Wanna say thnx to you, now i can use rotor displacement to "shrink" the rotors to minimal hit boxes.

Holy crap a walker tutorial on the same month of my b-day? Sweet

I had a chuckle when you mentioned inspiration. I realized I started playing space engineers when I saw your video with the vengeance bomber that got me interested in space engineers but the centurion battle mech made me download and start. I gave up hope rather quick because i couldmt even make a blocky ship fly. My first mech was a small backward knee biped that took me hours to make and barely worked because i over compensated everything on rotor settings. I had to spend almost a full day studying your mech tutorial world to understand since i kept trying to rush or make massive mechs. A few mechs later your titam jaeger came out and thats when I decided to make striker eureka from pacific rim. Ever since then ive made almost exclusively walkers In my worlds and ive made several jaegers. There have been times where I quit because they arent good for survival or i have no one to admire them but I constantly challenge myself to make bigger and better creations because i see your videos and it inspires me to keep building. I am so glad to have found your channel and hope to get better with every build. Side note: my biggest mech so far is 160 (400m i believe?) large grid blocks tall and based on the mech from avatar legend of kora

This is a very in detail tutorial and you did a great job leaving in a whole whallop of naunced information that most people wouldn't or couldn't bother explaining. The animation background in the back of my mind does nag at me wishing you would mention more about the complexity of walk cycles and the entire concept of any shape of grid's center of mass. which I will admit is probably not suitable for a first episode, but it definitely makes me look forward to your next episode.

damn son! i gotta build me a tachikoma when you're done with this series.

That lightning saix though

things evolved a lot from when i first tried (2014), lol... :) There were no timers, no command blocks no sheet... just using the rotor strength options and gyros to "move" the legs that clamped and declamped using the "detach strength"... it was a mess :D and of course they worked only in space on the platforms :) You did a way better job then i did back then dude :)

OMG Here we go! 😘

OMG u made the walker from Boylei Hobby Time! That's so cool!!!!!

Hello! Thank you!!

WALKER POG

Oh, regarding leg design, I actually know of two mechs in science fiction that use bipedal swing legs The first one is the Castaferrum-pattern Dreadnought from Warhammer 40,000. You know, the boxy, stout one that everyone thinks of when you say "space marine dreadnought". The second is the Granite Grinder from LEGO Rock Raiders. One shared design element with these two mechs is that they have very large, wide feet.

This update to the previous tutorial will be great!

I'd like to see you build a walker that uses in-line walking motion, but can use sweeping motion for strafing, turning, etc, like a more realistic hip. Ideally a biped or quadruped design

@BlackArmor718
