About Trailmakers:
In the toughest motoring expedition in the universe, you and your friends will build your own vehicles to cross a dangerous wasteland. Explore, crash horribly, use your wits to build a better rig, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.
Welcome to the Ultimate Expedition!
Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization - it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find along your way.
Trailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.
Expedition Mode is the challenging campaign mode of Trailmakers. You are competing in an off-world rally expedition with only a few building blocks to get you started. You must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. Journey through a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and dangerous weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity.
Sandbox Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts - the skybox is the limit.
Trailmakers is even more fun if you play it with other people. Build cool vehicles and compete in mini-game modes with your friends or other Trailmakers online. Build a helicopter, send it to your friend, and shoot them out of the sky. Put two seats on a tank, and let your friend control the turret. As we get further in Early Access development Expedition Mode will also be adapted to multiplayer.

All of you TOTALLY missed an opportunity. Add a bunch of weight blocks, each on a separately controller detachable block. As you lose balloons, drop a weight to balance it. I say you need a round 2 of this.

[@jakobmanton6889]

Or hear me out, don't add weight, keep the same amount of balloons and just float endlessly up into the sky

[@qdaniele97]

​@@jakobmanton6889I think they would get out of range from each other pretty quickly.

[@user-mk7bu4pk5q]

Yes! Only issue is if someone destroys a collection of weights, then they just fly up infinitely and nobody wins

[@35manning]

@@user-mk7bu4pk5q so build armour around them. The armour could even form part of the weight that is dropped.

[@user-mk7bu4pk5q]

@@35manning That is a good approach, it would still require a lose scenario of someone infinitely floating higher though. But ultimately sounds good!

Frank is fun! You can definately invite him more often I think

[@Bolacha0000]

Same feels.

[@GummieI]

Yeah he seemed to fit right in style of these videos. And having that extra person mean it is not only about being able to target and get a proper lock, but just as much about who the target

I regret my decision Scrapman was ruthless!

[@Tobot_27]

@@Fungus_Frank The man himself!!!

[@Dishanta_Goswami]

The bois should do a purely 'form' build battle. It shouldn't really have function, but should be a really detailed build. Then it could become a series like "Who can build the most detailed car/plane" ...you get the point

[@FFangsYt]

Maybe They can make a flyable plane that looks like a painting

[@HorilkaConsumer]

Or a helicopter battle, but the blades have to be intersecting at an angle like the copper chopper oe whatever from that one movie

[@HorilkaConsumer]

Also, has anyone noticed that Scrapman looks suspiciously Norwegian... I'm 89% sure he is related to Jeb...

[@Tobot_27]

nah, i've thought of that too but i don't think it would be fun or fair because yzuei would stomp on scrap and any other possible members

[@TinaGloria2012]

A form battle would be a bad one for Scrapman. He would struggle through it and it would not be fun for him.

[@Scarletdex8299]

Tank battle, but they have medieval catapults instead of cannons

[@ateriemouse8406]

Thx for idea i am gonna make it in trailmaker thx bro

[@gamingfrog1234]

Why are you everywhere, i have seen you less recently but ur still everywhere

[@AlrenClan]

Boat battle, but with no buoyancy pieces. You have to use only balloons, or propellers to not sink, but you can’t float away upwards either. If you either stay under or stay in the air for more than 10 seconds, you lose. ( or you could just use an altitude sensor and dynamite. )

[@dashspeed9523]

19:35 scrapman is a genius for adding power couples :)

[@mohammadnazriabdsamad8286]

Suprised that neither of them built the house from "Up"

[@Favouritegam]

UUAAGGH THE MISS opportunity

[@xCHUNKx]

I'd love to see a proper airship battle with the 'not rope' and more rocket rounds

[@DETHdressedInRED]

Pls ask scrap why sometimes his videos notify and sometimes don't notify for an hour exactly after video drop. I'm no longer member due to lame financial things but i am still here.

[@DETHdressedInRED]

It's not like members see the video an hour early because there's tons of people who comment like first and stuff so you know exactly when it dropped but almost none are members. It makes no sense to me why sometimes I only see the video exactly one hour after it drops.

[@xCHUNKx]

@@DETHdressedInRED I think it's more a KZbin problem I just so happen to be on KZbin a lot more lately and I'll watch the video before I get a notification for it. It should send out a notification as the video drops but as you say they don't come through until an hour later after the video has actually dropped. I've had this notification issue with every channel to be honest.

[@Jeljel-nh6fs]

I like how Scrap's creation just floats in the water.

[@jaspermooren5883]

That balloon core joke made me literally laugh out loud. And I do mean literally literally.

[@isoul22]

this was really good the rocket and emp rounds are so much fun to watch with all the tension of the 1 shot kill, awesome video!

[@TheSystem576]

Seeing you guys use ship-themed airships gave me an IDEA: A two-part challenge where you start off with a ship-to-ship ocean battle, and then in the second part you need to turn your boat into an airship without removing parts (maybe even keeping the same controls?).

[@yeeteater51]

Once again i ask for long range carrier vs carrier battles where airplanes can only resupply once back at carrier

[@theratwholivesinahome4181]

I like how with most trailmaker contests you kinda theme your builds they look really nice!

[@AlrenClan]

I’m really excited for more videos with frank, he seems really fun to play with and is a great addition to the team.

[@DETHdressedInRED]

Yeeeeeeeessssss I have been waiting for this!!!!! Thank you scrap and yzuei for actually reading comments and trying stuff! These are such cool videos.

[@renkitten1]

i feel like with the power coupling physics, once they reach a certain damage threshold, they just start tearing the build apart on it's own.

[@Syloeh]

thank you editor for the balloon-core demo... . . . . . . You played on the joke, so yeah respect because you actually did it.

[@warriors_in4k]

A mech fight would be be sick

[@chickenychickens5154]

Hydrofoil game of tag. Player builds respective speedboats to escape the hydrofoil tagger, ramming the speedboats until they sink, and the hydrofoil can repair, tagger with the least time to tag the escapers win.

[@ltcolthorin8661]

[@rajidahae4220]

Great episode! EMP + TNT is a lot of fun :)

[@lafrog0878]

I love how scrap turned into an atom at the end. I think a challenge where scrap tries to ‘tame the atom’ or basically control flight while the creation turns to spaghetti

[@Xmar4]

LMFAO! The balloon sounds after the Ballooncore comments

[@lavarsch]

I would love to see some "revisited" episodes, in which you take ideas you already had, and do them again with the knowledge you have from the already done challenges.

[@kylemamac6085]

You and yzuei should do a battle where both of you are travelling passed the speed of sound

[@gleechy]

I was thinking “Balloon Corps”…..military balloons is essentially what you’re doing lol

[@jimbob0776]

[@ScottaHemi440]

Scrapman's flyer went full cathulu in the end xD

[@vexmain2836]

19:42 scrapman's creation looks like a radioactive atom or something like dat

[@--cook--]

scrap! yuzei's glitchy build gave me an awesome idea for you to revisit. you could *utilize the power of spaghetti as an anti-missile* system by creating a barrier of glitched power couplings to disrupt weapon targeting!

[@user-ud8zy2dv1k]

i feel like in these kinds of battles where getting hit enough has a chance of actually getting you more height instead of less, such as with balloons, it would be more fair to say 'whoever loses all controll of their altitude is out' rather than 'whoever hits the ground', thus you can't have an outcome where someone's seat flies straight up because the rest of their vehicles gone and win by default

[@MechMaster-]

Genius strategy would have been to make a weight dropping system and have extra balloons so if they get taken out you can just drop some weight and be back on track

[@kanesideram7651]

You should really mount a camera to you weapons pod in these challenges, because it'll make free-shooting long before lock-on feasible. Especially during the Rocket Round.

[@mistapine]

Frank was super cool in this video, please bring him back more

[@user-mk7bu4pk5q]

Mad respect for Frank on removing his shields

[@stopmotionstation707]

"Form Friday" or something would be cool where you all just try and build the best looking thing, all form no/low function

[@huey2026]

This totally reminded me of Balloon Fight on NES. I'm old.

[@graylinbeaudry4651]

If you have an air compressor and you put two fingers on the end you can continuously make that balloon sound without the balloon. Maybe that should be next year's April fools video a "balloon core song"

[@Twisted1409]

I just had in my head "flying fortress has been released" 😊

[@theonetralewolf]

The rockets were so satisfying against the balloon ships.

[@Layow.]

Yay! A new member for trailmakers tuesdays!

[@Tuovinen1]

I would love to see a mech battle with the bois. Mechs that have two legs and arms, melee or gun fight. Love ur content scrapman!

[@DrGzhero]

I'm appalled that no one thought to make the house from the movie "Up" and weaponize it. But good builds as usual, nonetheless.

[@eddiejackson1566]

Lmao scrap man you tryin to start a ballooncore project i got just the guy for percussion

[@grayjackson8987]

I just had an idea: a dogfight, but your only weapon is the tractor beam.

[@Dzamin_1]

You should experiment with the power coupling spasms as a weapon. I was thinking a timed missile/rocket that after a few seconds, spasms and helps the explosive make contact. I would test it myself but my current laptop cannot handle trailmakers

[@doomkat3282]

You should have done this with the submarine ballast tanks instead of a single inflatable balloon, that way you could better control the lift when damaged, and it would still rely on the party balloons for lift.

[@tylerphuoc2653]

Andrew Huang did actually do a found sound song where he covered 99 Red Balloons with just exactly that, red balloons

[@kashyaptandel4678]

Rocket rounds were fun af

[@nargis1926]

You should have made the balloons on invisible power couplings. Maybe incorporate that next time.

[@ant71989]

Looking at Yzuei's build, I'm concerned they have incorporated Scrap mechanic physics into Trailmakers.

[@phatstax9765]

You boys you should do another challenge like this but with 2 people per team, build your ships to the complexity limit, still using ballons, have 1 person to fly and the second to operate the artillery 👍🏻

[@Bolacha0000]

Pre-design castle, where you can hide a certain determined number of explosives and then use a catapult to aim at the other in a turn based style. First one to explode all wins.

[@gravitygamerzone2101]

New game idea, have each of your own fan bases make you guys planes/ cars or anything else within set limits to fight each other with. Best team wins?

[@ThatRandomNeonGuy]

I was honestly hoping one of them would build the house from Up IT WOULDVE BEEN THE PERFECT IDEA WITH THE WORST AERODYNAMIC PROFILE EVER XD

[@WINBcab]

I just came up with an amazing idea, do the same thing where you use balloons, but you have every balloon attached to a detachable block with an input, and you use emp’s

[@shadow-gaming43]

you have to do a dogfight where you have to switch each other's controls to random controls

[@ouranimalschannel6673]

You should do a parachute guy with the power coupling. (That would be cool)

[@gooddalek304]

You should do a dogfight where you use the inflatable balloons as your only source of lift, but you can only have them at maximum or minimum power.

[@turrboenvy4612]

I would've added detachable weights so once I started losing balloons I could maintain buoyancy. That, or float away while someone else sinks.

[@golden.raja_]

Hey! Out of context, but can you make a tensegrity structure using power couplers??!!

[@whiteweeb864]

You guys could do a transform battle, using the transform ability as lives and each time a vehicle gets destroyed, transform to a different functioning vehicle instead of going out, going until you run out of forms. You could do different planes or multiple types of the same terrain, like planes to helicopters, ECT.

[@mikehorrocks2909]

I’m surprised that one of these guys didn’t build the house from the movie ‘Up’.🤪

[@felion_]

Tank or plane battle but the vehicle is as large as possible!

[@user-gh5vp6vh7j]

I love the spaghetti mode that yzuei turned on

[@dinofootie410]

A cool video could be an all terrain hide and seek/tag game. Maybe even have it be an evolution match .

[@toddabbott781]

If you had made the airship tilt you could have used the propellers to keep you up some.

[@kcsniperboy7148]

Definitely a missed opportunity to build the house from up

[@stephenhill5986]

I'd love to see this in an "Overpowered vs..." video

[@Orange_the_furry]

3:08 i agree

[@svampebob007]

If you think about how guns work, I would have gone for having the floating balloon on several power couplers away from the seat and basically have a big "hole" at the center of gravity. Kinda like the drone battle that you guys did.

[@9.5329]

Thanks for the suggestion, I will now make balloon deathcore

[@Bob-ok5vm]

nice build

[@alphaskullcralwer5261]

on the second blaster round what would of happend if scrapman would of landed on the catapult if you took off again would that count ??

[@TupperGamer28_90]

I predict that his next video will be another Sky Mechanic video

[@Nightmare80500]

How about a similar idea except it is only emps and all of your balloons are detachable, so its a gamble of whether your balloons fly off or not

[@braxtonbrown8097]

A two-person car with a plane hanging behind like a kite held together by the power couplings

[@user-di9cp6ov2c]

You should try to make an airship go supersonic

[@Fireheart318]

You should do a submarine battle!

[@carstenmuller5016]

Idea vor a new round: same idea, everybody uses ballon’s, but every ballon gets one tnt and you have to use only the emp weapon

[@limbomask4745]

You joke about ballooncore but there are very recognizable cartoon sound effects that are made with balloons (also if done properly, you could attach a balloon to a wind instrument)

[@OK-sk2bw]

You should do battle bots that have maces! power block as the tether etc.

[@MrVouboul]

i love the spaghetti party

[@autisticaeronaut]

you should do a dogfight or other kind of battle filled with explosives

[@taimurahmedrafe4984]

hello scrap, i want to know are you now a master of the mute button when you do your outros, and the linking the the other channels part?

[@Legamerto]

I got an idea for a Dogfight. Everyone has one magnet in his plane to try to grab the other one and smash him into a mountain. Could be fun. 😅

[@JaskPlays]

do a similar video where you have 3 party balloons and you have to try destroy them so if you run out of balloons or get taken out you lose
