So it looks like I missed a couple of things in my analysis. I’ll clear those up here: Wings are actually not the only device to disappear - others like the balloon can as well (so you can’t get infinite height), but you usually won’t come across it in regular gameplay. It seems that batteries actually disappear in the order they’re attached instead of by size, I just happened to attach the 3 small ones first. I also received a science lesson from you guys about how hot air balloons need the outside air to be cooler so the hot air can rise😅 I think some of these discrepancies took place because I wrote the script relatively soon after the game released… so we found out more about how things worked while I was editing. I will be more thorough next time I make a video like this.

[@MisterJokestar]

Also those big blocks that float around some sky islands also disappear sadly but they do last a loooong time it's kinda cool.

[@freedom8555]

The hover platforms disappear after a few minutes

[@mementomori5580]

@@MisterJokestar The big platforms disappear based on distance. They stay forever, time wise, but will disappear if they're getting to far away from their point of origin. That's how the disappearance of most of the Zonai Devices work as well.

[@awkwardt]

You did good. Comments on small errors just drive more traffic so it's a win and you handled it in a mature way. Bravo

[@philippfranke3655]

I also had small wheels disappear when I drove around with my tank for a very long time (something between 30 and 60 min). It suddenly started flashing like wings or balloons. And: Balloons disappearing was a big nuissance for me because I regularly glued bundled wood in the opening and lit it on fire to get "permanent" lift. That also stopped my plans for building an airship using the boats on Tenoko Island. I got one to fly with 6 balloons with the burning wood.

[@keatonfox1874]

5:00 Hot air rises because it's less dense than relatively cooler air. Since the air inside and outside the balloon are the same temperature, it won't rise. The game happens to agree in this case, though I doubt this was programmed intentionally.

[@keatonfox1874]

To elaborate further in case anyone was curious, hot air is less dense because the molecules are moving faster, and thus take up more space. Imagine a room full of kids bouncing all around. They represent hot air molecules. Fewer kids fit in the room because they're all running into each other constantly. If you calm them down (representing cooling molecules), suddenly you can fit more in the room because they're now able to stand closer together. Just don't ask me to explain why a room full of excited children would float on top of a room of calm children...

They also disappear after a single use. I sort of hate that. Makes them mostly useless in my opinion. I still just do the same thing I did in BOTW. Which is, before I go on a big quest I go to a town, find the local cooking pot, and fill up my meal inventory. I do this pretty much every time I come to a town and before every major story line quest. I never run out of food, and I have never had need for a portable cooking pot.

[@Nananki]

I'm glad to see the hot air balloon behave correctly! What makes a hot air balloon rise is the heated air in the balloon being less dense than the surrounding air. It doesn't matter if the ambient temperature is hot or cold, what matters is the relative difference inside the balloon vs outside.

[@nthgth]

Raises the question: does the balloon rise faster in cold environments? I don't expect they'll have gone that far, but it wouldn't surprise me much

[@nthgth]

@@oswith971 you mean, Yes the fire/hot air has a higher difference from ambient, but the moment it gets into the balloon the frigid outside air is cooling the balloon air that much faster. Yeah, that might pretty much nullify the effect. I could see that. Gonna look that up for IRL actually, that's a great point.

[@gavins6419]

If you've seen Avatar The Last Airbender, you might remember that Sokka and Zuko's hot air balloon stopped flying because the hot air outside the balloon is the same temperature as the hot air inside the balloon.

The fan can move by itself, it only has a relatively high friction.

[@jasonx7803]

Yes, just set it down so that it’s blowing downward, not sideways.

[@maxwelllutomski7855]

​@Jason X sideways works too in some areas

[@ArcNine9Angel]

Was gonna comment this myself, so instead I'll like and confirm. Fan does blow itself.

[@mustlovebooknerd]

I came here to say the same thing. Fans can push another object if there's too much friction too. Like a wing with a fan on flat ground with no wheels or tracks is not going anywhere either.

[@breadspy]

Correction its more to do with how the fan deals with angles and positions using the physic engine of the game if lying flat downward it will fly up and end up catching on the floor but it does revolve friction a tiny bit Not 100% sure

[@dokuujin1851]

Slight addendum for rockets; this applies to fans, too (sort of.) It will never increase height, but that doesn't mean you don't need more rockets. It's about weight; heavier devices WILL need more rockets. I'm pretty sure as long as you have enough to life -at all-, it will always give the same height, but heavier devices sometimes need 2 or more rockets to even be able to take off.

[@Cute___E]

I tested this the other day actually, and no, you can definitely lift off, and still not be going as high as possible via rockets

[@dokuujin1851]

@@Cute___E huh. What exactly are you replying to, cause that reply makes zero sense to me basically just saying weight matters?

[@Cute___E]

@@dokuujin1851Sorry, let me clarify. It's possible to take off with rockets, and still not get as far as you could have possibly gotten by attaching more rockets. Weight does effect it, but it isn't a binary factor, there's a scale to it depending on the weight of what you're lifting. The best way to test this is to use the floating platforms along with rockets. Test the difference between using one rocket and two, or four, and notice it makes a difference.

[@dokuujin1851]

@@Cute___E oh i mean that's more or less what I meant, anyway. The only reason I said the "you won't get higher" thing is because the video implies you don't, which I haven't tested. I just know for a fact you need more if shit's heavier, and that's very easily tested by simply attaching a rocket to a stake. IIRC you need 2 to even lift a stake, and a minimum of 3 if you have any kind of actual vehicle that includes a stake. (stakes are REAL heavy, lol)

[@delllee4915]

Strangely enough, I used multiple fans for a sand surfer and it moved faster when I use more than 1 fan

*Lizalfos sitting comlpetely still while you're testing the sleds at **9:05* - Let him cook

[@shadyshyguy4058]

The baloon not responding in hot area makes sense, because baloons does not just need hot air they need more hot air than the enviroment.

[@Icewall956]

Yup! The air within must be less dense then the surrounding environment.

[@Denamic]

Thrust for things like fans, rockets, and balloons work by 2 main factors. First is the power; how much weight it can move, and second is the max velocity. If you have enough power to move at the max velocity of the device, you will not move faster by adding more. 1 rocket is the same as 20 rockets when the weight you're launching is well within what 1 rocket can handle.

[@setiawanraestloz3504]

This is correct. The first "mythbusting" is wrong. You can prove this by using the giant floating platforms, while it's true that 4 rockets will disappear at the same time thus carrying the platform to the same initial height, the 4 rockets will leave behind larger inertia, the platform will keep moving up for much, much longer, and the final height will be much higher

[@NekoMouser]

I was going to ask about this because it does feel like more rockets can matter. I haven't paid attention with full fidelity, but I've felt like I needed to use more rockets to move things like those big honking Zonai floating platforms. They all break at the same time still, but to get it moving and how much momentum it builds up seem dependent on the number of rockets (again, I haven't tested it consciously).

[@Denamic]

@@NekoMouser That'd be because they're too heavy for one rocket to get to full speed

[@DarkXelNaga]

While not a zonie device, the natural hover blocks also flash green and vanish if you try to fly around with them. I just learned that today.

[@trilodroid3628]

Distance from point of origin makes them disappear, via another post, very good to know when you are rocketing all over with them. And be sure to wedge a chainlink bunch of rockets onto the dragon post head so they dont slip off.

[@Scatterbrained_and_Lost]

The wing isn't the only thing that disappears after a certain distance travelled. Those giant hovering blocks also dissappear after enough distance has been travelled. I think they disappear after a certain distance traveled anyways, because one of the blocks I was using began to disappear before the second one, and I had begun moving them at abouth the same time.

[@GremlinSciences]

The floating blocks disappear based on distance, though some of the ones that already exist in the world are actually based on a specific bounding box rather than any specific distance. The wings however seem to be based on fight time rather than distance, you can get them to go quite far if you attach sufficient propulsion but they don't get very far at all if you use them as a barebones glider. Every item eventually times out though. Fly on the same fans and they'll disappear after around 30 minutes of flight time, the wheels and weapons should disappear at around the same time.

[@monmagog]

The balloon also disappears after traveling too far. The wing and balloon do this to prevent infinite flight since both can be use to get infinite distance. Not sure about the hover stone though

[@Lutgerion]

Happens to fans too. I spent a long time, 20-30 minutes or so, exploring the world on a flying vehicle. To my surprise the fans started giving out in the same way at some point.

[@TFVids]

Along with the wings despawning over time, Hot Air Balloons and Fans will despawn over time as well. You can test this by putting a torch or a pile of wood inside the hot air balloon, eventually it will despawn and you will fall. Fans will also despawn after a certain amount of time, but it takes a long LONG time. I used a 2 fan hoverbike to traverse the length of the map before it eventually started flashing green and then despawned mid flight.

[@DominicDore]

I've also had big wheels despawn after a really long time

[@squiddler7731]

Stabilizers and construct heads as well for me. I believe all active parts will eventually despawn with enough use, but gliders, balloons and rockets are the only ones with a short enough duration to matter for normal gameplay

[@scettzvill]

can confirm the fans and balloon, mapping out the underground got quite hectic when your hoverbike decides to shed a few vitally important pounds. as for the balloon, discovered that whilst traveling from the ground mazes to the sky mazes.

[@squiddler7731]

Oh yeah, also here's a fun fact: Those giant floating blocks in the sky islands will also disappear after a short time, if you decide to try flying them around by sticking fans to them that is.

[@An1mat0rz]

The Construct Head's targeting is dependent on how it is activated. Enemies could have some in various locations (such as the yiga clan) and the construct head will target Link but not any allies. The inverse happens when Link activates it.

[@frankonaig7278]

On who activates it you mean

[@bradencosier80]

3:59 Small correction there, your remaining energy isn't the green bar, it's the red. It works in the same way as stamina, where the red bar indicates the speed at which it is depleting. The more red, the faster it depletes. If you were to wait until both red bars dropped down one energy cell, I suspect it would show 2 wheels do indeed deplete energy twice as fast as 1.

[@gr3enmachin369]

Nah the endpoint really doesn't matter as long as it's the same for both tests. If 2 wheels used twice as much energy, the time would still be twice as fast with any endpoint. The difference is just much larger the longer you make the endpoint.

[@rushikakkirala948]

​@@gr3enmachin369 The endpoint wouldn't be the same, though, because the size of the red would be different because the energy consumption rates are different

[@gr3enmachin369]

​@@rushikakkirala948 ​Although the correction about what is considered the endpoint is correct (it is after the red and not the green), the difference in the widths of the red areas is almost negligible in this experiment, which actually reinforces his statement about scaling down extra energy usage with each wheel. If 2 wheels used twice as much energy, that red area would be twice as wide. His endpoint was still about the same for both, but like I said, as long as that is the case, it doesn't matter where it is. Think about it. If 2 wheels used energy at double the rate, going from full energy down to any given point would take half as much time as one wheel going to that same point.

The two big wheels actually do use twice as much as the single wheel. You tested from when the green ran out but the red part of your battery is actually still juice in it. It is just showing you how fast the battery is draining. If you waited until both were completely dark then it would have been a perfect 2:1 ratio

[@gr3enmachin369]

It's interesting how many people here think this is the case. The endpoint really doesn't matter as long as it's the same for both tests. If 2 wheels used twice as much energy, the time would still be twice as fast with any endpoint. The difference is just much larger the longer you make the endpoint.

[@Deniolia]

But if the red is showing how fast it is going, it will be bigger on 2 wheels. The endpoint isn't the same across both

[@IceBloo]

@@gr3enmachin369 not really. I’m not gonna claim it’s 2:1 because I haven’t tested it myself but the red part is wider when the drain is bigger. So if you end it on the left side of the red part it’s less accurate. For example say if something drains super fast and the red part is as wide as an entire bar that would make it so the left part will touch the line the instant you turn it on. Whereas something that has half the drain would take X amount of time for the red bar to touch it on the left. That would mean one thing took 0 seconds to drain and the other thing would take infinity times more time to drain. You have to test by draining it so that the bar itself is completely black to get an accurate value. To better illustrate it, imagine if the red part signals how much power is drained in a second. And let’s say one device takes 8 seconds to drain a bar. When you turn it on it’ll be green for 7/8 of it and red for 1/8. It’ll take 7 seconds for the red part to touch the left side of the bar. If you use two of the same device and it drains twice as fast the red bar would start at 1/4 of the bar and the green would be 3/4. Draining at 2 bars a second it would take 3 seconds for the red part to touch the left part of the bar. That’s 3 seconds vs 7 when it should be 4 seconds vs 8. It won’t be the same ratio simply because you use the same endpoint. The red bar changing width makes a significant difference. It might not use twice the power still but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t test the most accurate way possible. Better way would be to test it with a zonai battery or from a game save with no upgrades and see how long the full battery drain takes.

[@gr3enmachin369]

@Ice Blue Someone said almost the exact same thing to me in the other comment where i explained this. Although the correction about what is considered the endpoint is correct (it is after the red and not the green), you can see the difference in the widths of the red areas is almost negligible in this experiment, which actually reinforces his statement about scaling down extra energy usage with each wheel.

[@IceBloo]

@@gr3enmachin369 again, I said I don’t know if it’s actually twice as much drain. My point is you cannot use the left side of the bar to accurately compare drain time. You have to use the right side. That was my entire point, not that the drain is twice the rate.

5:07 makes sense, cause its to do with lower air density inside the balloon, not just that the air is hot it has to be hot relative to the surroundings this is the case in the real world as well - if you have a large space with 50 degrees celsius air and put a hot air balloon in it, unless you supply extra heat to the hot air balloon interior it will not rise.

Wings are not the only ones that vanish. Fans, big wheels, small wheels, and construct heads all vanish at some point.

Batteries are used up in the order they're put on the device they're placed on, but in reverse order.

It's a very simple but clever way of making them work as intended in the natural way they'd be placed on builds.

The wing is NOT the only Zonai device that will disappear after being used for a certain amount of time. The standard hover bike that seems to be everyone's favorite vehicle does the same thing, it just lasts a looooot longer. I found this out because I was hunting around for the light dragon to grab the mastersword and didn't realize it was waaaaaaaay up in the air so I was flying around all over hyrule closer to the ground. It took, I don't recall exactly, 20-30 minutes of use. Maybe even a little longer, but eventually my hover bike did the same thing where it flashed green a few times then despawned. While this time limit is so long it "should" never really be a problem, it does absolutely 100% happen. Also, the Hot air balloon one makes perfectly logical sense. It would not and SHOULD not fly in a hot environment. The whole principal that makes hot air balloons work in the first place is that the INTERIOR is hotter than the EXTERIOR. If the temperature inside the balloon is the same air temperature as the air outside, it would not fly. Even Avatar the Last Airbender knew this when they made their cartoon because when Zuko's hot air balloon flew over a boiling lake, the air around them was so hot the balloon crashed because it could no longer fly.

The hot air balloon in a hot place not rising makes sense. It works based on real physics principles like air pressure, air density and buoyancy.

In the example you gave, the air was the same inside and outside of the balloon.

Attaching a powerful weapon to a homing cart allows it to smack enemies with the weapon instead of its face. They do a lot of damage that way... also autobuild keeps the damage of whatever weapon you attached to it, so it can do some CRAZY damage with relatively few zonaite. Also, frost emitter added on makes it quite deadly against even silver enemies. 3 part powerhouse that fights for you.

Hm... does weapon special attributes apply to those planted on zonai devices? Granted not all of the would be applicable, but some might (e.g. bursting procs for forest keeper)

[@njihjkzero2829]

@Sinteleon unsure. I don't think the elemental properties of any weapon work right (I tried with ice and no luck) but the gerudo weapons I tried were able to consistently one shot me with like 20+ hearts. I think the damage works, but fused items don't, so the bursting forest weapons probably don't actually burst.

[@njihjkzero2829]

@Sinteleon after some testing, it does not apply certain special effects. Any special properties granted by the fused item (puff shrooms, for instance) simply don't work. Also, the weapon in question does still lose durability, though I found that the royal weapons x2 bonus was NOT applied to the damage. It should have one shot me at a full 40 hearts (176 listed damage) but did not. In comparison, my gerudo weapon with 130 damage did exactly 32.5 hearts, which was the expected result. So, I think the only real weapons that should be applied are likely the gerudo weapons. That or gloom spear + gloom spear for the obscene length of the weapon, but it's honestly more of a burden than anything else. TL;DR, gerudo weapons are the best for the death roomba.

I don't know why zonai device life spans are measured in frames, and I'm not entirely sure how it's counted when it comes to the wing, but I will assume that it counts the frames that it's gliding, since sitting still on the ground doesn't seem to make them despawned, at least not the ones that are spawned "naturally" in the game world.

Love your video! About the hot air balloon, IRL physics, it's not necessarily the hot air that makes a balloon rise. It's the difference in density. "Hot" air is expanded and less dense than the cooler denser air around it, so it rises. In a hot environment the air inside the balloon and outside are the same temperature and density so it doesn't rise. unless you put a flame device and make the internal air even hotter and less dense.

The fan not pushing itself on the ground has to do with friction. In the air it has nothing that it is pushing on so it can fly freely, whereas on the ground it cannot generate enough force to surpass the friction with the ground.

You can postpone the wings disappearing if you attach a new fan to them while in flight and power it.

Actually from a physics standpoint, the hot air balloon not working in hot air makes perfect sense. The thing that causes buoyancy in a balloon is the hot air inside being **less** dense than the cooler air outside. This causes the denser air to push the less dense air up and out of the way as it's pulled down by gravity with more force. Since the balloon is wrapped around that less dense air, it gets pushed up too. In fact, it would make the most sense for the balloon to fly worse in hot regions even with a heat source underneath because you wouldn't create as large a difference in temperature and thus density.

[@elowin1691]

2:42 They don't exist in capsule form, but the big girder-like floating platforms also despawn if you fly them too far. I think it might be precisely _because_ they don't take energy to keep in the air that the boys and girls at ZeldaLab decided to implement this limitation.

I kinda wish you had been able to explore the battery order thing. I have a suspicion that the battery order is chosen based on the order they were attached, whether that's "first attached goes first" or "last attached goes first" is a different question, but if you wanted to determine that it is random, you need to provide multiple samples to have evidence for it. Also I would recommend putting together a large thing of small batteries on one device, and one large battery on a separate device and then setting them off simultaneously with a zonai bomb (since it activates devices, it would guarantee they start simultaneously) and time them to see how many small batteries it takes to use up one large battery. A couple good uses for this information that I can think of are things like where you place batteries (if you can control which battery is used first you could stack them without risk of all the batteries detaching, or control how your flying machine loses balance mid air when a battery disappears), it could be useful for measuring power efficiency too (No need to waste a big battery if you can get away with 3 small ones!) All in all, great video! This give me many ideas for experiments! :)

[@GamingChair420]

i think big batteries act kinda like the overcharge with the large zonai charge and its a set amount of time while normal batteries act like batteries you use normally and also i think it might be based off the order that you place the batteries on the zonai device for the order of consumption idk about either but it'd be cool to test it

Actually, the wing doesn’t disappear if you go to far from where it was set to air. Instead, it disappears after 1 minute of use.

[@SirJerric]

I have personally been referring to device disappearance as "burn out." Rockets are the most obvious case, where it appears to be based on time powered, possibly not including the wind-up time(s). Batteries are also obvious, burning out with power drained by the other devices. Wings burn out based on time actively gliding (perhaps distance traveled, good luck scientifically finding the distinction). Hot air balloons burn out with time heated/stretched. Large platforms burn out with horizontal distance (possibly from point of origin), as far as I could tell. I used up two pairs of balloons and multiple upward rockets in one case while dragon chasing, and got to hang around at +2400 for a long time, but other platforms start blinking with only a little island hopping. Fans burn out with time powered. This one is long. Long enough to cross the whole map with a hoverbike/hovertrike (two or three fan models). I found this out while spiraling around illuminating every lightroot in Hebra/Tabantha with a side trip to fill in Satori Canyon. You are more likely to lose the fans in a bad landing bounce or to a Frox eating the build (yeah, that happened) than to experience burn out. (If you want to try this, do yourself a favor and attach a dragon scale or throw a giant brightbloom on the build for extended persistence range.) Speaking of hoverbikes, I do not have a confirmed burn out on steering sticks yet. Nor on stabilizers (I have a watercraft that uses both), nor on either type of wheel.

[@K3nshiiiii]

2 rockets will give you more momentum when using the large floating platforms though. You will get overall higher if you use multiple rockets rather than 1 for the levitation platforms.

Weight is the determining factor objects have max speed if you can get there extras won’t help. the platforms are heavier one rocket doesn’t max it.
