I Finally Installed Auto Spud Turrets to Defend My Base! - Scrap Mechanic Survival Mode [SMS 55]

Welcome to another episode of Scrap Mechanic Survival Mode! One of the most popular requests I've been getting is to put auto turrets on my base to shoot the bots automatically when they approach. I wasn't convinced this was a great or effective idea, but today I decided to give it a try anyway!

ways to improve the system: 1 put collectors in the ground so the legs/ spines of the bots get collected , 2 it doesn't really matter if you have four or two spudguns because a haybot always takes four hits and with four spudguns it'll be an instakill , 3 don't worry about ammo usage they rarely even get to the bouncefloor with the wheel wall active. idc about likes but if you appreciate the ideas here like the comment so scrapman will see it more easily. :)

2 suggestions: 1:Put some warehouse keys on the sensors for the wheels with the one block wide on the one block wide. 2: if you put the pistons for the bounce floor on 2 distance and a certain speed it will damage bots itself, and since there is so little bots getting through, you shouldn’t need guns for hay bots.

[@Dalorian1]

@12:55 just add a bearing with a controller to rotate it, and have a logic gate system to flick the gun and shoot for a set time in the direction of the sensor that was activated, and setup a ton of sensors facing up from under the ground out in front of the castle ;-D

[@Ovodobert]

Finally The People Asking for more than 2 weeks now has been granted!

[@rhysdenno5993]

Instead of magicallations and manually shooting the ones on the bouncy floor, you should make a big checkerboard pattern ceiling of spudguns and sensors. Then just connect each sensor to the adjacent guns

[@Noramatenda]

Here is my idea for the boss trap; in front of the bounce floor make pistons that shoot them up high then using the wheels put them as high as the bot will fling up. Therefore the boss bots will explode far away enough to not destroy the ramps. And an idea for the Haybot house; just double or triple the metal where they push the others through the wall and maybe quadruple and quintuple? Idk how far through they push. But yeah, like so ScrapMan sees this.

[@zgaming_3037]

Lol, at this point the farm doesn’t even need a person to protect the crops, the machines will do it, just make the defenses automatic so you can build while the raid is happening. Also, I think you should put the bouncy floor on sensors in a certain area.

[@Dalorian1]

@13:50 you could setup a test area in front of the castle, like a bunker, with a 360 degree rotational spud gun (4 spud guns, 1 for each cardinal direction), that will rotate and fire 4 times at any of the sensors around it that were activated :-D If you tweek it enough, you could have it timed perfectly to shoot at anything passing over the sensor, and with enough sensors, the gun would keep rotating to shoot anything passing into your fire zone... each gun, with the right logic, could fire independently at multiple directions 4 times without wasting shots :-D If you build a platform around the bunker, and then glitch into the ground to have sensors facing up below the ground all over, you could sense any bot passing over any area :-D

[@TheCrazerzYT]

16:30 They raid comes?

[@Dalorian1]

If you cover all the land in front of your Castle; Into small separate areas with sensors, Facing up, you can get maybe a light activation warning system, As people or creatures approach

[@Ypzilonia]

There is a way to check for bots over the whole bouncy trap without even using sensors. Just have your guns shooting with a pretty long interval and at the end have buttons where the spud could land. Then you link everything up so that if your spudgun shoots without hitting the button it will keep shooting until a button is hit. Doing it this way he won't need to have things in the middle. Also I'm not sure how ammo efficient this would be, probably not too good

[@TALLPUP]

You could try to put resource collector under each boucey floor (if it will recess enough in the ground) to remove bot parts from continually activating the sensors. Alternately could put resource collector up behind castle wall and suck parts through wall. keep up the great vids - love your work

[@BeefIngot]

What would be super cool is a sweeping spud gun turret where it stops and shoots when something is in front of its sensors. It would be rather simple too. One controller on a loop sweeping 180 degrees, a timer loop to fire the cannons continuously, and a nor gate to stop the turning when the sensor is activated. The advanced version could use 3 sensors to follow targets. You could have a base autonomously take out bosses.

[@kurtushodder2831]

I was thinking about this for a while Good work mr scrap man

[@michaelsmith1846]

Three questions... 1. Should you make the bouncy trap go out further for the bosses? 2. If you put a horizontal saw on the front/bottom of your tree truck, will it cut the tree down in one piece and not in two pieces? 3. Will you do some thorough tutorials on how to use the control, timers, piston and etc. or do you know the best youtubers to watch for that? Awesome videos as always!

[@dennisdekoster1187]

Haha those colored lights in Hanks home are a nice touch. Maybe you could make them blink randomly, so that it looks like they’re having a party 🤣

[@Dalorian1]

Suggestion for you @ScrapMan Perhaps if you set sensor traps, which trigger the spud guns to rotate to shoot in that direction? You could set the rotation to accurately shoot at that sensor.... Each Auto gun would be triggered based on its own set of sensors which would spring it to shoot at that area ASAP for a few shots before re-calibrating to new sensor hits...? perhaps if a sensor keeps getting hit, it will keep shooting, until a cool down? Once the cool down is over if no new sensor it stops shooting?

[@ponchie9958]

8:15 Attention to detail the button he’s pressing is actually a mailbox

[@danyboy-es8kw]

Hey @ScrapMan, to stop the debris from the bots activating the sensors you should put resource collectors by the bounce floor so the parts get picked up, or another idea is put resource collectors and refinery's under the floor at the front of the Scrap Manor then have vacuum tubes taking the scrap metal that is made to your craft bots.

[@retosius7962]

you know, the mentioning of hank reminded me of an idea i had. the ability to hack a certain amount of bots. when you finish a warehouse and get the encryptor and protector, you should be able to get a recipe for a "code scrambler" that you can shoot with your spud gun. it could deal 0 damage but if you hit each kind of bot with a certain amount they'll start to jitter and then they'll be allied to you. each bot will have a different set function and you can use the wire tool to set them to these functions as well as "tie" them to a block(could be another item you unlock, maybe called an anchor point or something like that). then the bots will do those actions automatically. you'd have to use the encryptors and protectors in the recipe, therefor limiting the amount of scramblers you can make. if the bot dies or you miss the scrambler will just drop and can be picked up. EX: totebots could have 2 functions, harvest milk and guard cows. simple, you give them corn and they can get you milk and they can protect your cows. hay bots could have 3 functions: plant, fertilize, harvest which is obviously for farming. tape bots could have 2 or 3 functions :guard area and guard player, maybe even repair structure where they will replace blocks that were in a certain radius of them. the red boys could have all functions(probably excluding repair) and maybe even extra functions like "harvest wood/stone" and "forage materials(where they follow you and pick things like cord, flowers, oil, ECT.)" but they'd require a large amount of scramblers to get, maybe almost all that could exist in a world for just one.

[@zachrodan7543]

suggestion for dealing with some of the debris: resource collectors behind the wall to pick up the legs. while the heads of both bots might still occasionally trigger the system, (and you could theoretically try vacuum pumps to suck up the greenie heads if you really needed to get them out of the way) the haybot heads despawn fairly quickly.

[@steeljawX]

You could use some other sensors and some bearings to swing some clearing "arms" from the piston sensors to clear things towards the wheel wall. Also you need to put some resource collectors against your front wall to auto pickup the legs. You might also want to consider one of those auto farms like what kAN and Moonbo have built (the auto planting auto watering auto harvesting ones) for just one of your plots for just potatoes and connect the vacuums up to your ammo crate and to a large crate (to hold the seeds for planting), that way you keep getting ammo back automatically with less worry. But again, these are just ideas. Great game play though. Keep up the fun work.

Have you noticed how quickly Scrapman's turns have tabled from SMS 53 to SMS 54? He lures Haybots, and not children, but he still is the new (Scrap)man behind the slaughter.

[@creativenametxt2960]

The bounce floor causes all the debris to fly into the sensors. If you put the guns before the bounce floor, it should be fixed. You could even reuse the wheel trap sensors to also activate the guns.

[@williamdecker3368]

Like many said before, put resource collectors underneath the bounce floor to collect the legs/spines of Haybots. Also you only need the the left most piston to have two sensors, then the middle one has one only sensor on the right and the right most piston only has a sensor on the right. That way things don't get double sensed.

[@David-om9ub]

[@brandongrunwaldt7979]

Well first I’m glad you decided to add these. But there is a much more efficient and effective way to add the turrets. I wish you could join my game so you can see. It’s hard to explain but super easy to do once you see it. But I’ll try... if you put 4 guns facing in all 4 directions and have it spinning and each gun has its own sensor. You won’t need logic gates, your cover area with sensors becomes a circle because they are rotating.

[@Dalorian1]

@30:30 you could save a lot more if you placed sensors facing up to detect when somethings there to shoot at :-D

[@shrimpspaghetti]

You can make a more flexible looping circuit by connecting a timer to a not-gate, connecting said gate to an and-gate, and then connecting said and-gate to the timer.

[@jackbe-ve8rs]

Love your videos! Keep up the awesome content!

[@kenvanhook6641]

great job on the series so far ScrapMan

[@UthacalthingTymbrimi]

You might be able to tune the sensitivity by having two or more adjacent sensors in each position, connected via AND gates, so only larger objects that trigger the sensors simultaneously will fire the guns. This _might_ be more effective at detecting live bots and ignoring debris. I also agree with the other comments - split the sensor grid in half to shoot for each side independently.

[@isaacparker8268]

Put a resource collector on the ceiling of the over hang to collect the bots debris so it isn’t triggering the sensors as much

[@ish_supernova3163]

To fix the degree problem u could always put collectors in the area to pick up the spines, the head and other parts dissapear shortly. Although there's a problem with the greenie heads but I doubt many will get through the tire wall. Here's another idea: you could have a wall to push the head and other parts off the bouncy floor by using pistons and tires although it'd need to deactivate the sensors and the bounce floor

[@WynterLegend]

If you have your wheel-barrier turned 90 degrees, each half facing each other, it will slam the bots together hard enough to damage and even kill them. Those that get through will be blapped by the spudguns

[@tytangameplay3118]

You could make a pusher type thing that doesn’t trigger the sensors and activates every couple seconds that pushes any body parts/debris off the bouncy floor

You should slow down the repeater a little bit, and place ressource collector under the bouncy floor so at least the legs wont trigger the spudgun.

[@Neuralatrophy]

put those sensors on a looping bearing to sweep them over a line. You could sweep them back and forth as well as front to back while moving the guns to do a complete sweep of the funhouse floor. Add resource collectors and vacuum pumps under the floor to suck up debris and maybe a switch to turn the engine on and off for the wheel wall :D

I wonder how i never thought about sensors being placed away from the gun it's triggering. Somehow i was always end up putting them right next to gun and always got disapointed about how they dont work as i would like. :) Thanks for idea!

[@unnamedracer9757]

As you should attach a logic repeater to the vacuum pump on your packing vehicle, And then attach that repeater to a switch, then you would not have to spam the button every time, Or at least it would make it easier, not necessarily better. After all, spamming the button does work, it doesn’t work well, it just works…

[@firlox228]

For the haybot debris, would be best for using the resource collector and place on piston from top (like the spudgun sensor defence)

[@kantoraxg.2491]

Try to make a all terrain vehicle or a vehicle that can survive in it's own in Survival mode. Make a bedroom with a wardrobe where the dressbot goes in, a kitchen for the cookbot with a dining area and a workshop area.

Thx scrapman for putting this idea in practice

[@Creothina]

This isn't even Scrap Mechanic anymore....it's Scrap Engineering. Lmao

[@tropicalvikingcreations]

You could try adding slits in the bounce floor like with the draw bridges so stuff drops down and you can reach stuff, also have at least 4 connections from each floor panel to the piston.

[@Samu-kt6zt]

To prevent debris from farm bots you should put collectors under the bounce pad, or behind the wall to collect the debris.

[@willhickey_]

You should make a mounted turret on your wall similar to the one on your attack vehicle, but with more spud guns and a seat on it to control the aiming of the turret. it might be useful for the boss bots. btw I love your Scrap Mechanic Survival series, keep up your awesome vids! :D

[@fantoman6564]

Hey Scrapman you can put some resource collectors under your bouncy floor so that the haybots drop doesn't stay.

[@whatwouldkealiido4819]

You probably could honestly get rid of all your defenses and only use spud guns so that way you don’t waste ammo with the bounce floor and everything will look more like a castle with cannon defenses. Also. If you like the idea. Maybe put a single main cannon in the middle where you can aim and fire at boss’s or whoever gets past your spud gun defense. And have it like a Gatling gun if thats possible but idk. So yea

[@stijnvdb7135]

You can putt resource containers down under the bounce floor so it picks up the haybott legs and they don’t activate the sensors For everyone who now thingks about the other debree the haybott legs wont de spawn and activate them the most and tote blocks are not a common drop.

[@fire_block7592]

An idea to allow you to toggle the wheel wall is to hook it up to an and gate and a switch, causing it to only trigger the engine when you have the switch active.

[@speedy_grinka]

You can place collectors in front of bounce floor from base side, so haybot spines do not trigger sensors.

[@mateuszcetnarski603]

Scrappy, for the problem at 10:11, place down the log/stone/bot leg stackers under or behind the bounce floor to pick up the bot pieces.

Keep up the good work scrapman!
