[@gamera5160]

If you make the levels too weird and difficult, his expertise isn't relevant because you end up doing goofy things with cheese builds and game glitches in order to win.

[@alexandratsankova5825]

there actually is a way to create a "hydraulic" that retracts 100% If you make an isosceles triangle, where the base is 4/3 the length of the sides (aka like sides being 3 length wood and a 50% expanding hydraulic of length 4 on the base) after the hydraulic expands, the triangle will squish into a line If you mirror this into a diamond pattern, you'll get a 4-sided shape, where after the hydraulic expands, 2 of the points will overlap. if you stack this shape over and over you'll get a long rope that squishes down into nothing.

[@MattJDylan]

You seems confident in it being a thing and this sound useful, so I'll leave a like even though I understood nothing of it lol

​@@MattJDylan it's like /\ / \ / \ ------------ \ / \ / \ / Imagine the middle line being 4/3 size of the sides' size.

[@johonn]

I kept facepalming and waiting for him to try some kind of scissor jack (which sounds like a similar concept to what you're describing) but sadly Matt was mainly a road engineer, not a mechanical engineer...

[@rizalkhafidin1471]

It's ironic that Matt is the first one doing a sneaky hidden anchor up in the sky years ago when he made a map for someone else on the Build It Boyz episode

[@D3X1K_AXYZ]

Was literally just thinking the same thing. I believe it was the one with Reid Captain.

[@Xymanek]

For me the counterweight solution you attempted was much more interesting than the extremely basic hydraulic elevator. I'm sad that you couldn't manage to make it work

[@jkfdsjlkdvccx]

Foundation in the middle would have reduce the angle and possibly allowed the cable solution to work.

[@onlinegub7609]

I watched the episode with my beaver plushy and my level was included in the video 🤩 I am so excited that you chose the RCE Elevator level and that you found the nodes at the top of the level 😁

[@yourfellowbriton8549]

Watching matt stress about hydraulics in any video is great

[@seanshepherd1071]

Surprised on that last level he didn't attempt an extreme spring cannon with the space beneath the G wagon.

[@enochofmi]

For that last one, I think you might have been able to do it with the cable chain if you had a joint at each junction, a joint at an anchor, and a joint on a hydraulic which kept extending, grabbing, pulling, letting go, with the anchor holding it steady whenever the hydraulic let it go.

[@MrNukealizer]

That's an option if there were a lot more hydraulic phases, but there was only one.

[@glennac]

On the last tower level I wonder if your original cable idea would have worked if you had used road and struts to round off the sharp corners that were giving you so much trouble? 🤔

[@heinshaaine8153]

When your parents come in 18:40

[@justinth963]

He tried that, the cable passes through the road.

[@randomperson-5000]

I saw the nodes at the start of him trying, I nearly lost it when he said he can't complete it.

[@jeffreyblack666]

An Engineer would understand geometry and how it can be used to make something contract to less than half their size, with the power of triangles (and rhombuses). Especially as it is really easy. If you have a rhombus, with all 4 sides 1 unit long, with a horizontal brace made of hydraulics, initially 1 u long which expands to 2 units, then the vertical distance goes from If you have a haudralic initially 1 u long, and have it expand to 2 units long; then the vertical height will start out as 1.7 (ish) units long, and shrink to 0.

[@OurlordandsaviorShrek]

damn the big arch bridge on the first challenge was quite a bilf

[@jonathanbutler6635]

I know you used the g-wagon song several times for the first bridge but with the second rainbow one I think it would have been cool. But these bridges are amazing.

[@bigbeacon9262]

16:39 the hydraulic looks like his arm and the road looks like his head lol

[@RandySteward]

I absolutely loved these levels. So unique!

[@davidhaagsma]

The car can go thru the first foundation, didn't need to go up an over it

[@vdp673]

Before seeing the anchors up in the sky I was thinking you should be able to 90% of the way wil the legendary hydraulic muscle and then mabye the other 10% with springs

[@SeriousApache]

14:00 RCE discovered elastic deformation

[@ADBBuild]

I think he was just surprised that the game had those physics.

[@Bassalicious]

Umm, Matt.. I think the very first bridge should have been a cable stay or suspension bridge. That foundation didn't block your way I'm pretty sure.

[@oleksiiizvalov764]

Have you seen the game Engineer Millionaire?

[@Error-rk3df]

I want to see you succeed the counterweight lift I think the major problem was the 90° bend on the sides of the cliff so maybe a curved bridge at the top supported by a few braces on the side would to the trick It should be build quite a bit higher than the flat spot as its only there to guide the tether If you make it move you might even be capable to park the car up there

[@user-np9gb1ii8f]

[@GerritCoulter]

An Engineer not understanding that pushing is far easier than pulling.

[@Pumpnineteen]

I feel like a lift configuration would also have been possible for the tower level with pushing hydraulics to make a tower, and ropes/pulling hydraulics to lift the car

[@ADBBuild]

Pretty sure my neighbors heard me screaming SPRING CANNON!!!!!! at the screen during the last one.

[@GoSlash27]

I think the chain/ counterweight idea could've worked. You just needed to round off the corners at the top with some steel truss.

[@paisleystillman6877]

my idea for the springs was just to make really powerful spring cannon that would launch it

[@CainXVII]

Matt, a real civil engineer: "I didn't know cables stretch!"

[@Akotski-ys9rr]

The Matt and paddy car is hilarious

[@sgmvideos5175]

The Elevator level was quite cool :D prooved you are not elevator engineer

[@nifegun]

The counter weight thing could work. You need to build supports that hang on the corner and get rotated around as the weight falls. Thing is you'll end up trebucheting the car lol

[@azaldie]

"Is it meant to look like a knob, I'm seeing a knob" 😆

[@whata1b263]

You could have used hydraulic muscles to lift the G-Wagon without using the top nodes. It would most likely be cheaper.

[@Akotski-ys9rr]

Matt you didn’t realize that you aren’t supposed to go over that wall in the first level. You’re supposed to use it to make a golden gate shaped bridge

[@user-vx7fo4wm1r]

3:02 that shits expensive 3:05 JESUS

[@A350Avgeek]

15:50 you could just have made little bump with some pieces of wood and a road and then the yellow dots (I forgot their name) will not get stuck on the side

[@Planeandtrains]

the yellow things are nodes

[@kingcrack4422]

the cable style you did.. i would make an arch on top of the big pillar, so the cable can slide nicely... please try it.

[@pgads3004]

for some reason this video made me think about an old trebuchet video and wondered... how many levels can you beat just using trebuchets (or catapults)?

[@jannikf2504]

I think the solution might be not to pull down on the opposite end, but build the weight far out to the side and it already pulls while it drops without even touching the corner

[@dronicx4002]

Matt proving for a fact that he is not an architect as he forgot something as simple as the sky anchor. it's an architect staple so of course he wouldn't have known to check.

[@chihuahuajedi]

And so it begins... We have troll levels in Polybridge now.

[@michaelwatson8654]

Nooo Matt!! You were supposed to build your name to complete the dirtbike map!!

[@mandowarrior123]

My favourite when you made a practical bilf, that was a great one

[@vikingsundlof9040]

You should have used a spring cannon on the elevator level

[@urkerab]

10:20 Are you perhaps expected to use the anchor points as a dot-to-dot to spell something?
