If you add enough wings to something it becomes a plane. Engineering with Matt.

[@cyberfutur5000]

I mean... he's somewhat not all wrong in a theoretical way... kinda... sort of...

[@PiousSlayer]

Just attach a butt load of thrusters to it!

[@MrGuliton]

Sounds like an architect.

[@beforelifewaschaos]

He is an architect... the king of architecture actually

[@SupasitPhungrattana]

Then if you add wheel on boat it becomes car and if you add wing on boat it becomes plane right?

[@Glegh]

The more matt makes planes, I get more concerned for aviation

[@oldmanramblingatclouds]

Well, to be fair he's a civil engineer, not an aviation engineer 😛

i love that your voice goes quieter when ur underwater. pretty funny and great editing! merry bridgemas and keep making bangers m8!

[@SmokeandSpirit]

Its a Low pass filter. Basically much the high frequency sound is filtered out leaving the lower bass sound behind. I think it's especially cool because it's quite accurate to our experience of sound underwater and the physics of it all. Great editing indeed.

Can you try building a fully controllable Flying Bridge

[@jonhg92]

A plane that transforms itself into a bridge. Or a cargo plane dropping bridges

[@mrbanana7110]

Like he said in the vid if u add wings to something it become à plane, to mâke ur idea Hé Just have to add wings to the supersonnic bridge

[@Striderly]

Bridge review!!

[@racelan2967]

Matt, the center of lift must be slightly behind the center of mass! This is the main rule of airplanes. Otherwise, plane becomes unstable and will flip backwards of forwards. All you have to do is move wings a bit back, or delete some wingage in front. Also applies to vertical stabs (if it flips sideways). Also applies to KSP.

[@mhayashica]

The 2nd plane is just a big container with rockets lol

[@Hasanex]

Wait till you get to the third one

[@Knowbody42]

It's containers with rockets all the way down.

[@blacksarlacc91]

I would have called the 3rd a barn with rockets.

Nice video, short but entertaining! It was actually you that inspired me to play Trailmakers in the first place! I love playing Trailmakers, and have a few pointers to help with future videos :) - If you hold CTRL and double-click a block, it will select all blocks of that type - Thrusters that are inside of a vehicle will still provide thrust - You only need a small amount of detachable blocks set to "make scrap" (like one per plane) - If there are blocks holding things together, like the tail of your smallest plane connected to the blobfish or the thrusters holding the two halves of the blobfish together, detachable blocks will basically do nothing - You can use logic blocks (the "OR" block is my go-to) to give parts multiple commands; for instance, your wing servos can be both roll (a/d) and pitch (s/w). Assign one set of commands to the logic block and the other to the servo itself. - Take a look at the workshop for some crazy builds! Hope that helps! ---Sintel

[@yososhi3788]

nice

[@KC-dg9ku]

Eve really needs to read this, I play trailmakers too and it is very painful to watch Matt build planes

[@jimmymcgoochie5363]

A plane, inside what briefly looked like Vader’s TIE fighter but turned into a blob (with the tail fin of the small plane clearly stuck to the roof so it wouldn’t detach!), inside a huge box with token wings stuck to it that couldn’t fly and so technically wasn’t a plane… Now do this in KSP

[@Aveenschannel]

Everytime I hear Matt say “that looks like a plane” in a video, the more convinced I am that he has never actually seen a plane.

[@conorstewart2214]

I think you need to change the settings on the first detachable blocks you put down and change them to make scrap, then it might scrap the whole second plane.

[@Freddie000]

The reason why the small rocket didn’t separate from the medium rocket in the first place was because the tail fin was attached to the roof, also if you turn on advanced controls on the configurator, there is a setting to destroy the thing your detaching.

[@KayJblue]

Damn I remember when Scrapman did this years ago, crazy how time flies.

[@FISO1427]

[@sithikananayakkare3162]

Ayyy fellow scrapman enjoyer

[@runswithfist9360]

I would love to see him play multiplayer monday with scrapman

[@agoddamnferret]

the middle plane was good, might've set the engines at the rear up on one of the detachable blocks and set some rockets that fire when you triggered the release

[@gomaashaban2933]

You definitely need to make the "PLANE-CEPTION" break the sound barrier

[@JustIn-sr1xe]

I think they'd need to upgrade the parts count for that to happen.

[@Luziferne]

@@JustIn-sr1xe There are "tricks" that could make even the small plane supersonic. Uses the detachable block too. Just build it that you sort of "cover" all aerodynamic arrows with parts that are only connected by a detachable block or two and drop the cover pieces before you start. the physics engine calculate the aerodynamics only on loading the vehicle in/exit build mode. And if you drop the parts the aerodynamics are "attached" to, those aerodynamics drop with those parts. Instant no-drag vehicle

[@chichi2000fgh]

the first and second layers are pretty good planes. the third layer is a box.

[@tdteliteboy8991]

Second layer had potential

[@cj719521]

The attention to detail in the edit to muffle the voice whenever we’re underwater is impressive and appreciated and adds so much! Thank you!

[@chewygoesroar1097]

Love the change of his voice when underwater, nice touch editor 👍

[@shiah]

Yeah, I love that touch in Kevin's videos, it's nice to see it here as well.

[@whitetailprince]

the tiny plane is adorable, needs a wheel on the tail though. its like a tiny shark plane.

[@noobonthetube]

Day 51 of asking RCE to play scrap mechanic

[@Agge1]

Still waiting

[@PaulHosler]

RCE you were trapped because the wings of the little plane were sitting on a ledge, if that wasn't there it should probably drop out of the bottom. The self destruct was pretty cool looking though!

[@D3X1K_AXYZ]

the back end was also holding the hall together

[@WrightBrosRC]

Matt. When it comes to aircraft, you should just make bridges from them. 😄

[@Fisshy]

Nice! Really lovely done :D One suggestion would be to have the detatchable block in the middle of the engines of the "middle" plane too, to make it seperate in 2 halves

[@0fficialr3d]

The issue you had with plane 2 not dismantling is because the cassis was still connected to the tail, so both sides where still connected. Love your videos!

[@luizroberto6705]

i think the engines were keeping the second plane together even though you put detachable pieces all around except on the engines, that's why the small plane always got stuck.

[@Dayzdday]

The plane videos are always the best

[@maxtube444]

Agreed

[@SwiftXYT]

Some times I think for a brief moment he was a aircraft engineer with the Trialmakers videos and the kerbal space program videos he does on planes

As a experienced TM player i can say its enjoyable and painful to watch at the same time, good work! Also 9:52 you can holnd ctrl and double tap to select all the same type of a part.

[@xxSeanVxx]

That small plane is so cool

[@joshpillstrom543]

definitely going to need to see boatception too. a small sub in a bigger sub thats also in a boat.

[@minesguy]

It is always funny watching a civil engineer trying to make something that moves.

[@musizlover2008]

To have better control of a plane's axis, you need to reduce the speed at which the wings move when changing direction. A gyroscope can help keep your plane from spinning too much when making turns.

[@tharnok5191]

Planeception is the best kind of plane

[@airwolfactual]

Could add more destructible detachment points between the boosters in the back of the second plane [would cause complete separation] and maybe interior engines to the insides to force the hull pieces outward just like in KSP!

[@Mr_Legit1303]

I would like to request more of this, what a cool game

Day 110:Dear Matt, I have a very good video idea Gather all your editors and make them all have a fight on like a PvP game (e.g. Minecraft,Rust,Ect,ect...) And see who is the best editor and is worthy of the rank of a classified engineering. From me.

I don't think that's a very good video idea as it doesn't fit the demographic most people that watch rce watch for building/engineering games not pvp shooters

[@ItsTiazzz]

2:57 Hi, so the reason your plane is sliding away is because the skis are coded in a way that they slide on icy surfaces. The aircraft carrier isn’t made of anything so the game counts it as everything(so also icy). The weight of the plane at the back is forcing it to slide to that way.

[@jaustinb8887]

[@matthewinsley3880]

Great video Matt. I think the blob fish plane would break apart better if the engines weren't holding the side pieces together.

[@oracle7552]

@Real Civil Engineer , I've been watching some of "Mustard's" and "Dark Skies" youtube channels on old airplane designs made during ww1 - ww2 and you should def try recreating some of them: XB-70 Fastest Bomber of it's time (M) Flying Wings - The future of flying from back then (M) XC-120 Packplane - A powerful cargo aircraft with a detachable cargo compartment (DS)

i think if he got the rockets to separate on the second plane, then the two sides would split cleanly and the inner first plane could just pop out and not have to maneuver out of it. peace, love, and planes.

[@andipandabear1]

[@michaelhardeman6004]

Great video RCE. Keep up the good content. Let's go Patty and Schmichael.

[@rarelyused3]

just a quick tip, theres a toggleable "turn to scrap" option on the detachable blocks that makes any block attached to them (not including anythign connected to what youre in) destroy itself completely after detaching the planes were all awesome though. especially the last one that was definitely a plane.

[@andrewthorpe3377]

He used that toggle, but something (I think maybe the size and/or engines? but idk) prevented the middle shell from scrapping completely.

[@pequenoZero]

I love seeing mirror mode being used!

[@DarkWarriorShadowClaw]

The small plane is really good, but the big one.... lets say you channeled your inner architect for that one :p

[@RolanDorf]

It's endlessly amusing that your second plane is basically Thunderbird 2.

[@florisvdvelde5447]

It's amazing that the smallest plane is actually by far the best and most plane-y

[@isupposeiexist]

Mini plane? Top notch. Med plane? Alright. Pretty good. Big plane? That's just a box.

[@EmoAdam0312]

I think if the middle plane had those detachable pieces where the wings connect its break apart more so.. but I like the idea of it being a airplane hanger that happens to be able to fly aswell.

[@jordanwerneck1184]

This Engineer is a genius!

[@Qantravon]

I think you needed a few more detachable blocks at the back of the middle plane, either splitting the thrusters into 2 sections or separating them from the fuselage, to make it break apart better.

[@hydrus6782]

A plane in a "plane" in a ""plane"". Definetly something an Architect would come up with.

[@MrMarket1987]

I appreciate the Kevin-like underwater talking effect.

[@olivergallery5334]

I’m sure someones already pointed it out. But instead of individually changing configurations of blocks. You can hold down the button to select it to select all of that block and change them all in one go :)

[@johncox7169]

Pretty sure that it needs to fly at some point to be called a plane, so the box with wings falls a bit short. And you should have mounted plane #2's rockets on explody bolts as well, and I think that would have helped the mini-plane escape easier.
