Building Piston Ramps for my Survival Car! - Scrap Mechanic Survival Mode #26

[@mihnearadu6644]

Tip for pistons: if it isn't connected to something, it isn't stiff and it goes back and forth

[@wizzlewaylon1844]

U can't put it on back and front only the top

[@wizzlewaylon1844]

XD

[@wizzlewaylon1844]

When u place piston at the front or back it well not stick

[@selenacarpenter3203]

Ya he just wasted extra 4 pistons due to not connecting them first

[@robertclaussen6743]

I recommend putting a cross-bar between the ramp strips. Looks nice, and won't splay when the car is on it.

[@hamger8584]

The ramp looks amazing, but i think u could add like a piston on the botton of the car that would hid a colored block behind, so when u are on the top u can just hop on into the car, press a button and get down like that. Just a tip, hope it helps.

[@OfficialRyker]

You should use the ramp to lift you onto a platform where you can store all your vehicles

[@ryanbilanzich1916]

Smart

[@jamesdelantar9681]

You need a folding block to hold you vehicle and conveyor on the side of the ramp so you can secure you vehicle so if a big red guy chase you,you can shoot the switch move up easier

[@markus1586]

Might also put a sensor back so that it goes up automatically on parking and when you start driving, it would also go down automatically. Other than that great idea!

[@nobpyxl5389]

Markus then how are you gonna get out without making the sensor activate

[@noxious_nights]

He said he's gonna do some color sensor stuff

[@Sovereign86]

An easier way to fix the ramp-catching problem would be to simply connect the ramps in the middle with a row or two of blocks. (Like a lift in a real auto shop)

[@Pedantic_Dan]

Just picked this game up a week ago and I’m hooked! Your videos are amazing and make me want to build stuff!!!

[@ssumbody6251]

Moonbo: Lets make a large ramp with rare ramps from warehouses! Me: I thought of making a ramp with just a flat slab of wood and bearings like an idiot!

[@davidmackey593]

Alright, that is really cool Moonbo. Had a thought on the engineering of it though, to keep you from getting that cross. Instead of a hinge on each end of each piston, it might work better to do a single hinge attached to a 3 block span with the pistons attached at each end of said span. It will allow them to rotate freely like yours do, but keep them one block apart for the lift... or if you needed more power a third set of pistons for a heavier vehicle. I am definitely gonna try something like this on my base though, absolutely epic idea!

[@slate613]

I'm beginning to think that if builds don't look at least a little ridiculous, it's not Scrap Mechanic. :D

[@chasetoyama8184]

Ding ding ding!!! We have a winner!!!

[@supremeplayz6442]

Moonbo on the lift in the wood at the top you could make divots for the wheels so your car doesn’t slide while getting out of it to raise the lift. Love the vids btw

[@mabrown666]

A suggestion; put a senor with a 1 or 2 block range lined up at the backstop of your back wheel. Use that senor to control the ramp. That way when you back up the ramp, it raises the ramp when your in place. When it comes time to leave, just move forward a little bit and the ramp will descend.

[@iwantmypot]

23:21 If you removed the very top ramp piece, the ramp would still reach the same height, but when raised, the ramps would be level with the surface of the upper level. However, it would hang down a lot more too. To solve that, you could use the shorter ramp pieces. It would require a LOT more pieces, but your ramp would be much thinner.

[@iwantmypot]

Also, if you want the pistons to move slower, but still remain very firm, you could try using the controller stages to extend the pistons only a couple blocks at a time. This should let you leave it on max "speed", but instead of finishing the full movement in one step, it will take up to 10 times as long.

[@baguettedoggo9821]

Hey Durf, don’t worry about the weird piston visual thing, and it not very new, (it’s always happened with my piston engines.)

[@evanherriges4042]

um wrong channel bud?

[@Beiratet-8]

You should add a parking behind it and use a sensor on setting switch, so that you hug the front of the ramp (put walls of course) and it goes up, you can put the sensor on color and set to cyan if you believe that helps

[@mushroomsoldier1009]

I’ve been watching you videos for a while now and that intro never gets old

[@TheRealSkippyTM]

I only have mobile, but your videos have inspired me to make stuff in evertech sandbox! (Evertech sandbox is a scrap mechanic like game for mobile, BUT THERE ISNT A WELD TOOL!!)

[@Moonbo]

That’s awesome to hear! Hope you get to play Scrap Mechanic one day!

[@brilane5135]

Wat game is that

[@TheRealSkippyTM]

Brianna Lane it is the mobile game much like scrap mechanic

[@donkeymaster1815]

I would weld the two ramps together so all the piston power is transferred into one piece instead of two

[@captainweiss219]

"Our level ramp with the ground" Moonbo 2020 16:07

[@DutchRider]

You gave me an actual idea, perhaps you'd like it as well. The idea is planely simple you make some fork system that picks up cars from stacked storages, in each storage you can save a car. short story short, you press a button, the fork will go to the level which is connected to the button, slides the fork under it, lifts it, pulls it back, and brings it to the ground.

[@leoniejones6173]

Yeah that is ASMR

[@cheetahlinks251]

If you use a sensor (set to like 5)behind the ramps, you can just drive up and then the ramps would raise, and to get down you would just have to start driving forward and the ramps would drop for you to drive away, there may be a tick delay, but you would get used to it. And you could still have a switch on the bottom if you needed to get your car from the ground. Even a color sensor so your character doesn't trigger it.

[@lorgrenbenirus]

May as well link ramps to each other since they're working as one anyway and this way there will be less sway to the sides. And for those "guide wall" pieces can use some lower friction blocks, less jittery moves then, like those wire mesh blocks.

[@RobiBue]

@Moonbo: I have a suggestion to your “twistin pistins”... Use only ONE bearing on top and bottom, but make it like so for both top and bottom: ⬇️⏹⏹⏺⏹⏹⬇️ Where ⬇️ is a block with a piston attached ⏹ is just a block ⏺ is a bearing with a block This way the “bars” are parallel but move with the pistons and both piston groups are the same length. I hope the visual explains it better than my rambling 🤪🤓

[@Moonbo]

I appreciate the diagram lol!

[@WilliamMyPeterFitz]

I also thought that a power slider and a separate speen slider would be great

[@noodle-san8]

you could also attach a controller to the 4 bearings to assist with up and down and weight. might be able to eliminate the added pistons you had to use.

[@tj_2701]

Correct, but you wouldn't need a second controller they can be added to the same one as the pistons.

[@GuziecDzikaSwinia]

I want to say: Hi!

SHUT IT

[@lieffian]

Love the car idea though I could see that as a tank design of sorts for exploring, add an extra set of tires and hook them up and whallah instant better exploration and scavenger

[@CitizenGold]

This feels like you need a sensor at the top to raise the ramp. Get to the top, ramp goes up. When you leave just drive away and the ramp is lowered.

[@jens8676]

i’m pretty new to scrap but i think you can use a controller to move the bearings. (correct me if i’m wrong)😄

[@nickcbr650r]

True but looks better with pistons

[@jens8676]

Brandon Zhang Ok! thank you that is also going to help me in my survival world!

That's inviting someone to your world and your game has to be running. He's talking about a server. A server is separate from your game, it would be like a MineCraft server.

[@imperialspacemarine1539]

I think because SM has a weight mechanic the fast or slow Settings in the Controller are mor like torgue meaning the power wich the Pistons or bearings put out to move an object. that might the reason why they hve only this Option and it is most likely too complicated to Change something arround.

[@mayho8098]

Maybe make a sensor that will close the ramp after u leave base

[@akukapukakukakuka]

YAY I LOVE YOUR VIDS!!!!!! And you should add a switch connected to your car so you can open it without getting out

[@simonlarsen6472]

maybe you could make a timelapse when you build on your base for the next video

[@13DarkForce]

I'm a "bit" late, but you should put like a door under it to cover the ramps and the under of your car. Just in case a Tape bot came here and shoot it.

[@kingwersen4831]

Just build a mining vehicle inspired by yours and i loved it thanks😎

[@ethangames5189]

you can rimote triger the ramp with a piston moving to a sansor

[@MC-ed1nc]

*Here’s A Tip:* You Have To Build A Big Enough Wall Behind The Area Where The Parking Spot Is.

[@isaacsmith5488]

I thought of something interesting that if you wanted you could do. The idea is that when you're on the 2nd floor you could make the ramp extend up pass the level of the 2nd floor and then use that as like a 3rd floor ramp. So it would be like this \ towards the ground when getting to 2nd floor, then raise so high that's its facing this a way / so it could lead you to the 3rd floor, if you make one. IDK its a weird idea, but if you like it then id be cool to see.

[@kociarzultimate384]

Maybe you also should add some extendable parts to help keep the ramp up, if you get heavier car

[@Monkey-kb5nb]

You should make it so that you can control it with your car

[@lody_9836]

you could do a rotating circle so your car can go on top of your farm

[@shoddyproductions9793]

Very nice, but pistons on the bottoms of the ramps would give you more wiggle room up top ?

Yeah tut really didn't need that many pistons if you're connecting them to a controller. Controller makes them like 3 x more powerful.

Not anymore... This was patched. Controllers now respects the pistons length and speed limit.
