I Built an Electric ATV to Explore the Whole Map! (Scrap Mechanic Survival Ep. 6)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey hey hi HI HEY HAY so I finished my wall :) I think it turned out pretty cool but only time will tell if it's a good point of defense! I added a couple of neat features to my wall behind the scenes and figured I would show off the finished product as part of this video! However...I got kind of tired of using my big truck to get around everywhere so in this episode I decided to build a light electric vehicle that can help me explore the whole map with minimal fuel/charge consumption! I hope you guys enjoyed this episode and I'll see you in the next one! :)

About Scrap Mechanic:
Scrap Mechanic is an all-new creative multiplayer sandbox game which drops you right into a world where you quite literally engineer your own adventures! Choose from the 100+ building parts you have at your disposal and create anything from crazy transforming vehicles to a house that moves. You’re even able to team up with your friends to create amazing things together: in Scrap Mechanic, you’re the master creator of anything you can imagine!
Here’s the deal: you’re a robot maintenance mechanic en route to your posting on a fully-automated agriculture planet. Your job is to take care of the worker robots as they work the land, sending the food they produce to the metropolitan planets. Thing is, close to touchdown your spacecraft loses control and crashes, but since you’ve got luck on your side (erm…), you survive! You’re stranded though, and at first glance you find that not everything’s quite as it should be. The Farmbots working the fields have gone crazy, and now there’s only one way to stay alive: using your quick thinking, your creativity and your wily knack of turning your surroundings to your advantage.

[@darealkosmo]

Hey guys, did you know shack walls break with one hit of the hammer?

[@DSIK]

yes we know kosmo :)

[@darealkosmo]

DSIKtwat ohhh ok I wasn't sure, I mean there's only like 50 comments about it on every video 😂

[@DSIK]

it may break in one hit but your wall looks awesome this way, better than tier3 metal.

[@c_death]

Put a single line of T3 metal on the outside 3 blocks up from the ground. The normal bots won't attack it and just kinda stand there, though they could possibly still attack and hit the metal behind it, but that should keep them from getting in even if they do. The wall looks SO COOL the way you have it, I think you should keep it.

[@karremania]

@@c_death T2 metal is already enough to hold back the normal 2 bots (tote and hay), tape just shoots from distance :P

[@journeyoframa2631]

Here some suggestions from me, 1. You can add some rotating light in the gate, so that the light look like a hazard light, and maybe you can add some totes block to make warning sound too. 2. For stability, just maybe, you can add 1 more wheel in the back of your ATV, that should look like a spare wheel. 3. Rather than using tier 1 metal, upgrade the metal first to tier 3 metal, which possibly Indestructible for tote block robot, farm bot, and tape bot too. Edit: Sorry for my bad English, and for my bad explanation too...

[@gdlifesteal5824]

kan: desides to help kosmo with the suspension also kan: DOESN'T PAINT THE BARRINGS!!!!!!!!!!

[@darealkosmo]

lol!! yeah poor guy must be tossing and turning in his sleep from all the unpainted bearings

[@FawnKoala]

Add more weight to the front to get more traction for turning

[@karyjas1]

Also - when using electric engines, make sure that your wheel base is as narrow as possible. The wheels behave like they have a welded differential. You can add guide wheels which are unpowered to widen the base. And can use just a single row of propulsion wheels. Alternatively you can double stack or triple stack your rear wheel beaerings to attach two controllers which increase speed on one side and decreases speed on the other when turning. That should significantly increase your control.

[@crilleohman4826]

Bruh, f*** the mean comments, you are hillarious and not a tryhard like the other dudes, keep doing what you do and keep having fun.

[@darealkosmo]

Thanks Crille, I appreciate that man! 🙏

[@Slinkywave]

I think that instead of using a controller for the red light you can use a nand/nor gate to get the red light working 😀

[@kimesdicul5614]

Questions nand

[@10175978]

Headlights turned all the way up kick out a lot of light, 4 or 5 should light up a decent sized area for nighttime building.

[@techsbyglebbagrov7470]

Make the gate have a toggle-able proxi,ity sensor so that when you drive up to it, it automatically opens

[@nuclearbaguette6646]

Don't rush anything! We don't care how late it comes, we only care about the content and i always love. The builds! Its so good. I cant explain the perfection!

[@wolfe8631]

You need to make a tutorial for this suspension technique

[@KARR]

Stocking up that lay down yard

[@adamdaman2760]

Your atv looks amazing kosmo

[@darealkosmo]

Thank you! :D

[@AgentWest]

He could have used a timer. He could have used a distance sensor on one door to detect the other. He could have used two distance sensors on the wall to detect each door... Instead he did it the most difficult way possible by slowly rotating a controller in sync with the door in front of a distance sensor! :D

[@FreezingHot]

difficult? no. i dont think so. resource efficient? yes maybe. you know this is survival right?

[@darealkosmo]

lmao! you got me there man.

[@rysiii811]

love you vid as always, dont rush it, do your own content because that's what great about your channel, you dont follow others, you play your own way. As for suggestions, you can try small scale farming, that is up to 9 tomato/turnip/carrot, 6 potato, 4 orange/banana/blueberry or 3 pineapple/broccoli. For up to these quantities you dont get raids so you can safely get the spudgun or farm up spuds to defend when you decide to go bigger. I also recommend you building a simple sawmill (for example long hollow shaft, some pistons and saws) to get wood much faster (and with huge satisfaction ;) ) or a mining vehicle for stone. Having water and chemical pumps into containers is very usefull aswell, lessens the grind. If you already didnt you should swap to "test" branch of the game, in properties on steam, it gives you access to (currently) option to get more glue and oil, cheaper wood lvl1 and concrete more relying on chems and water than stone, which generally reduces the grind a lot. Also, why nothing on snowrunners? :)

[@darealkosmo]

Thanks for the tips man! The farming one especially is going to come in handy. And I appreciate the kind words :) Nothing on Snowrunner because I'm a bum! Just kidding, just been crazy busy with work, I'll get back to it soon! :)

[@flyingmunk8956]

Good morning all.

[@darealkosmo]

ooo good point...maybe I'll give that a try!

You should get a lot more recognition for the vids you make

[@argxz4200]

I like the physical connection between the door buttons that's a nice touch Edit: on the base

[@brandonler5120]

I don't comment often. I just wanted to take a moment and give you props dude. For not using the same old popular music that every other KZbinr and their dog uses. I'm in love with this game and I love seeing how other people build. Keep up the good work!

[@c_death]

Kosmo you are so good at making cool looking creations. Even if they don't work great or have issues, they always look awesome.

[@the_Acaman]

That saw underneath the car is the best solution man! I have that to my exploration vehicle as well for the same reason and it works like a charm! You can also try to fit a bed under the vehicle if you can replace somw of your blocks with it. Awesome build!

[@darealkosmo]

Thanks Acaman! I was pretty pumped the saw blade fit underneath pretty stealthy, and it WORKS! Good point about the bed, I will have to try :)

[@Wolfi_Da_Woof]

Great video, was a real pleasure to watch :) As for the ATV, you can always try and go for a 4 wheel drive + 4 wheel steering ;)

[@ramentaryramblings]

12:54 you should use the smaller tires, a smaller tire is actually better for off-road because is "gears your down" compared to the land giving you better manuverability in rough terrain, and I think it would look better

[@lorethaerasmus8851]

it looks wicked

[@g09h]

hey Kosmo i think the ATV would work better if you added some weight in the front. Concrete 3 is 1 below max weight that would probably help a bit. Also you can fit a bed behind the seat and still access the chest

[@darealkosmo]

yo good call about the bed dude! I definitely should put one on there. I'll try more weight too, I was just trying to keep the weight down to save battery life :)

[@niilap_]

Im loving the series! Keep it up

[@willmath8209]

Kosmo you can put saw blades or drills on the wall so the farm bots dont attack only the boss will

[@LutraLovegood]

I'd love the details on those suspensions, I need to experiment more on that side

[@braydenroden2143]

This was a great build loved the design and everything about it. Keep up the great work :) (you put a smiley 😊 in your response to my comment so, I thought I'd return the favor) That comment where I thought it would be nice to see you play the crew 2 There's also a game called NASCAR heat 4 and there's a 3. You get the idea from NASCAR heat to four. That's also a game I personally think would be a cool game to play. Not sure what you think but I think it would be nice Lao one thing you can do is put a leaf spring kinda thing in the middle of the back axel for extra support on bumps. And the satisfying suspension bend

[@Starlight-nu1zh]

Amazing video as always Kosmo! I absolutely love the look of your ATV. It's really amazing!

[@bookrracing1389]

Make it all wheel drive then make it 4 wheel steering

[@jackbarnes2024]

Love ur gate man. Good job

[@JustIn-sr1xe]

I thought you were going to do an electric conversion on your original car. But, I like the independent suspension. I've been testing out various types in my creative world. Built a super heavy sprinter that can take jumps with 3000 stone on it.

[@Lerxn]

Kosmo can you invite Kan gaming to your world🤗

[@mohammadarrayan3972]

Put some rear steering, it will perform better (sorry for the bad english)

[@mooreplandscape8450]

Thats really a great build ........👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mrmcducky4260]

I love your voice kosmo! It’s so chill but still happy. Also great content can’t wait to see more! 👍

[@SpiffyscrollSPIFFYSCROLL]

You should also make a mini tank like what Kan did to go through the warehouses and get some good loot

[@gamerchristian3679]

You have a great content looking forward to watch all of it:)

[@jimb6117]

I'd try running front-wheel drive instead brakes might be killer but I think turning would be greatly improved.

[@journeyoframa2631]

I love your Video. Thank you for entertaining us in the middle of the pandemic time. Good job, and as always, keep up the good work...!!!

[@oliverlindfors1913]

That atv looks AMAZING!!!

[@FreezingHot]

Kosmo that wall and gate looks amazing!! I really like ATV too but can you use your trailer again? I really loved that you made a trailer and I know it has problems in Scrap Mechanic but if you can make it like a horse wagon, trailer should be more stable and not force your vehicles to do wheelies.

[@darealkosmo]

Hey man! I really appreciate the feedback :) I will DEFINITELY be hooking up my little trailer to the atv!

[@shwetamukherjee7394]

Cool Build Music, Kosmo!

[@altaem9152]

Please don't belittle your creations because you lack the experience of the Multiplayer Monday gang. I loved watching you grow through the noob vs pro series. You started considerably worse than my abilities then surpassed me under Kan's guidance. You clearly love your builds and I share your videos with the relatively inexperienced players in my survival world as inspirational material.

[@tekkvortex007]

Awesome ATV, Kosmo! I just started playing Survival and need to improve my building skills. LOL

[@zainabkhanagwu8693]

IT LOOK CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@karyjas1]

Dont worry about tier 3 metal. concrete 2 is enough. My base is built out of it, and they dont attack it.

[@dnr-vs1lk]

Explosives can still break it, but unless you kill a boss right on the wall it doesn’t matter.

[@marluna_x]

If you didn't know, if you only hook up the engine to the front wheels, it can be on full power, without your car making wheelies.

[@darealkosmo]

That doesn't work unfortunately, more so with electric motors. The braking curve is too sudden so your vehicle will just flip forward whenever you stop.

[@marluna_x]

@@darealkosmo That's the bad thing on that idea. Another Idea: Dubble bearings, one of them is hocked up to an electric motor, wich is accually used, but the other bearing is hocked up to an gas engine, wich doesn't rotate at all. It's just for "softening" the instant aceleration from the electric motor, that the car doesn't make wheelies all the time.

[@mohammadarrayan3972]

@@marluna_x double not dubble

[@xiphido]

As far as handling is concerned, I've found that front-wheel drive has slightly better handling and rear-wheel. Either way, sick grill my dude!

[@third_party]

Really like the design of the new ride. If you plan on sticking with electric, I would suggest you tack on a battery storage unit.

[@darealkosmo]

Thanks man! :) oh and that's what the storage chest on the hood is for!

[@third_party]

@@darealkosmo I understand the storage idea, though, the container can hook up directly to the engine - like a fuel tank.

[@turboswim]

I like the chest idea (aesthetically) but also if I remember correctly the chest actually has a better weight to storage capacity, the only downside is self-filling the engine.

[@flyingchair8103]

Looks amazing

Lol, just a few minutes ago i read about tank suspension and there was this HVSS which basically is what you built in the front. Also the rear uses another kind of tank suspension

[@jameson_dt8177]

yeah dude, your atv looks awesome :)

[@wolfrunner6462]

You should call corn concrete on the cob Also put metal or concrete in the front to weight the front down so you can use awd

[@1994Indyxlt]

You might want to add more weight to the front to help steering out

[@darealkosmo]

good point mang.

[@1994Indyxlt]

@@darealkosmo wow you are the first KZbinr to reply to one of my comments

[@karyjas1]

This wont help much... The problem is in the nature of the electic engine. Every four wheel vehicle has differentials to help it turn easier, but the electric engine acts as if there is no differential.

[@1994Indyxlt]

@@karyjas1 scrapmechanic has its own physicis remember

[@karyjas1]

@@1994Indyxlt i agree. However i wont change my point.

[@chokyrie3766]

I think if you do double bearing for each wheel, in theory, it should help stop the issue of it doing a front wheel stand or even front flip everytime you let go of W.

[@rysiii811]

it might help with accelerating "issue" too ;) it will spin in place without propelling, the pipe piece would be only thing moving

[@loik1loik1]

Love your videos, I hope you will never end uploading. Have a great day :-)

[@techflekos]

4:04 18 lights on the big rig

[@Mat-sl6tj]

Maybe try front wheel drive to get rid of the wheelies and help the steering out, only issue is that the torque means when you stop you're probably going to flip unless you add more weight to the back

[@doggocraft3971]

I like it a lot it looks real cool

[@bagusrch]

Cool gate and wall dont change that scrap wall. Change to gas engine for you atv, its gonnabe perfect

[@gamerkecske07]

1:08 the scrap thing, that your wall is out of, you can destroy it with the hammer so its a crap

[@darealkosmo]

lol yep, I've covered that several times in other videos, it's just temporary and for fun.

[@Avetho]

With how wide this quad is you could convert the solid back axle to a bearing drive with 4 bearings per side. Electric motors are not very good for vehicles since they lock rotation, hence the front wheelie when stopping with AWD, and of course the steering problems in both AWD and RWD since it acts like it has locked differentials as the wheels on both sides rotate akin to having a bar welded between them. Electric is good as a rock crawling engine though since its got oodles of torque, but just the same a bearing drive has the same kind of endless torque.

[@kayagorzan]

Indeed

[@darealkosmo]

so what you're saying is we're going driftin' bud? :D haha. All good points man! I'm definitely not ruling out changing the power source out on this ATV in the future.

[@filfil9902]

Electric motors dont have diferencial mechanism. This is the reason why you have problems with steering. Swich to level 5 gas engine. It is taking crazy low amount of fuel.

[@andrewsullivan2110]

Personally I would set the gate with a timer to close after 30 seconds. Kan could probably help you with that.

[@kosuuqwk]

The wall may look good but itll only take two hits from a farm bot to get through and destroy the inside i recommend making a straight wall thats horizontal and out of the blocks it will take much longer for them to get through.

[@Dishanta_Goswami]

Ooooh inspiration from SM

[@darealkosmo]

Yep I talked about this in the video :) That's why I have a frame for the wall so when the shack pieces get broken I just replace with metal or concrete

[@loeffel4144]

Your wall looks cool, but I fear I would destroy parts of it by accident. ;) I really need to play around with electric motors more. They seem to be a good replace for fuel engines in some cases.

They have more torque but less speed. They're better for drills, saws, and large vehicles.
