There's a bug thing you can build which uses the old explosive cannon that sends them with near 0 bullet drop its kinda like this I would love to see him work that in to a plane it would be cool and good for ground fights and dog fights

[@creeperlano7805]

I think you should angle your guns a bit downwards, so the reticles are aswell, because the bombs already start falling when being spawned in

[@creeperlano7805]

@@legendaryblob8227 that could work, but I think that aiming the guns down is still more effective, since rotating the bays only increases the height of the bombs by a tiny amount

You know what will be a nice addition? A sort of bearing or a servo that turns based on the lock on on enemies and has its own reticle. So you can use that to make your own awesome weapons

[@Ryno1278]

Yeah that would be a really good idea too bad stuff like that doesn't exist in the game yet

[@jacobyouknowwho]

@@Ryno1278 Key word "yet"

[@bicuswang5149]

sorry to say this but that will hardly work, since the lock on mechanism actually accounts for the weapon's bullet speed and bullet drop. so the "Custom aiming reticle" needs to have tons of parameters for it to work at all.

[@nikkiofthevalley]

@@bicuswang5149 ... All it needs is 2 parameters: Bullet drop in -seconds/meter- meters/second^2 and bullet speed in meters/second.. And if you want it to point straight at the target, you can have either a checkbox for that or just set the bullet drop to 0 and the bullet speed to a really big number. And if you add a visualization of the predicted trajectory in build mode, then even if you don't exactly know what the values are, you can estimate them by guessing and checking the trajectory display vs the actual trajectory of the projectile.

[@pandapip1]

@@nikkiofthevalley Wouldn't bullet drop be measured in m/s^2 (i.e. acceleration?)

[@justinpatterson5291]

Scrapman is forever figuring out ways to "break" the game.

[@justyouraveragenerd5152]

I feel like you can fix the shaking by adding 2 more bomb guns so they cancel eachother out by having force applied to both sides of the plane at the same time

[@caspernorrbohm]

I wrote it down: :D - gate 1: No delay, Duration 0.12(all of them has this duration) - gate 2: Delay 0.28 - gate 3: Delay 0.51 - Gate 4: Delay 0.77. Hope this helps others in the same situation. :)

[@advayprabhu]

Thank you so much!

[@oogwaymedia]

I have this timing set up for delay and duration but am still not getting the 2,3,4 bombers to fly like bullets... any suggestions?

[@danielbennett-ho2fi]

Thx!

[@thereptilebuilder9298]

You should combine the pistons with the infinite bomber so you can shoot infinitely forward.

[@DanielMether]

With the way those pistons yank the jet around, I wonder if you could use that to make an aircraft that can "juke turn" making it extremely difficult to shoot down.

[@crab.78]

Your videos are incredibly good at negating physical pain. I'm not joking, I had terrible stomach pain and pain killers didn't help at all, so I turned on KZbin to put mind somewhere else and stumbled upon this video. It was so efficient that I can only describe the rest of the time before the arrival of the ambulance as "discomfort". It's something about your "flow" of narrative, it's so relaxing.

Hi Reed

[@mstenbeck]

You could also counteract the recoil from left and right if you added a second set of guns but had them fire at the same time but on opposite wings.

[@notonlyhuman6073]

This was super dope, and wildly successful!! A possible improvement to mitigate the recoil shake during firing is to make both sets of guns/bombs? fire at the same time. Equal force on both side of the plane.

[@WlDoWMaK3R]

You can make the rockets from the rocket launcher go super fast using the pistons. Edit: another way to stabilize the plane when using piston launchers is to add a piston that fires backwards at the same time as the front, and add the proper weight.

Anyways, awesome creation ScrapMan! Keep it comin'.

[@stephenwaldron2748]

*Idea:* a dogfight, but either opponent chooses a whacky build from the other person's previous videos that meets the agreed upon requirements.

[@vladenache6147]

I think the solution to make that plane perfect is to add 2 more piston bomb bays that counter the effects of the first 2. So you got basically 2 pistons going forward and backwards, one on each side.

[@veryaggressiveducks830]

scrap is so good at flying planes some of the moves he does while taking out the aa guns is impressive

[@DoubleXGaming]

Very nice Scrapman, you should put 0.03 on the bomb bays since that is the time it takes for the piston to extend. I made an artillery gunship using piston cannons, check it out. I will take on your idea on using bomb bays too.

[@СергейДежнев-я2д]

does it work correctly for you? can you write the characteristics of the modules? I have a problem with the second bomb that just falls.

[@Kneeternel]

The soundeffects and mechanism remind me of the rolling schield droids from star wars. It would be such a cool build

[@brettmacaulay397]

That little panic wiggle as the ai is like "you're not supposed to do this. What am I meant to do?!" 😆

[@Peekofwar]

A very simple improvement would be to add another logic gate that holds down the trigger for the gates and bomb bays until all bombs have fired. This eliminates needing to hold down the trigger.

[@urownpersonalgod]

I wanna see this on multiplayer Monday!! Air battles with this plane changes the game.

[@ShawnF6FHellcat]

Not gonna lie, I thought that there was no chance of that working. Now I'm curious if you could add more pistons and make them launch faster.

[@Demonic_02]

I wanna see this idea done again but tilt the Launchers slightly back to give a little more distance to them

[@dinoeebastian]

a minor fix for the shaking side to side when you fire could be to put identical pistons on the opposite side of the vehicle to counter the force sort of like how a helicopter has a second rotor moving opposite to the other rotor

[@kjuu_strangersouth4810]

The fisrt version of your bomb shooting plane where it twitched out is perfect for the weirdest evasive maneuvers since the one time you did it you switched from facing forward to facing left ( 13:48 ) just remove the bombs and you have an automatic movement cancelling dodge that will confuse other players and AI AA

[@Nivoldoog]

I can't believe you got that working. I would of said this was impossible! Now with what you learned maybe you could get the arty contraption to work?

[@sggsquadpresents]

The fact that the bomb bays were moving opposite of each other was what caused the spin

[@p3chv0gel22]

"It got a lot of bullet drop" A gun, that shoots explosives, that drop really fast, and aren't that precise? Alright, Scrapman made a Borderlands 2 Nukem

[@steeljawX]

I mean, you can try to do this, or you can use the system they game already gave you which they named "rockets". But you seem to not quite grasp that pistons in TrailMakers are flimsy and violent movements make inertial wobbles happen. So what's happening is you're extending the pistons so fast that by the time the first bomb is released, the bay is in some kind of wibble at the end. But it's a very high speed, small distance, violent wibble. So the first bomb is being imparted the random velocity of that wibble, but the proceeding bombs are not. You'd need to pulse the pistons 4 times a second to get some kind of consistent non-standard result, but it'd always be random due to those violent wibble-wobbles.

[@Jamoni1]

Nice! Could you add a logic gate that would stay on for a specified period of time, so you just have to tap the button?

[@billybob4895]

But not doing so gives him the option to do a normal bombing run should he need to

[@okaomi41]

the thing about delays in Unity, which is a game engine that Trailmakers is using, is that it has several different Update() functions one runs every frame and will vary due to framerate and there is another one that always runs at 50 fps even if your game runs slower. Devs might have used the first Update() function i’ve described for bomb logic thus making them inconsistent

[@jenniferstewarts4851]

19:05 its called a "deflection shot" and yep, its insane, some ww2 pilots were masters of it though, able to compensate for range (bullet drop) and speed (target lead) on deflections at long ranges such that gun camera footage wouldn't even show what they were shooting at.

[@cool2frog]

Use the weird bomb tossing result you first got for an artillery piece, like a mortar, and then make it so all of the bombs are thrown like that, then sneakily introduce it in a tank as part of your next vs against yzui, where you can have a tank with multiple weapons, so long as it doesn’t use aim assist weapons other than rockets, so gunpowder cannons, rockets, and bombs. Tank vs tank, tank vs car, tank vs armored car, tank vs self propelled gun.

[@natcholyser]

YAY, new video from Scrapboiiiiii

[@johnathanward9179]

the concern I had about this is the added projectile speed relative to the plane

[@Warranty_Droid]

i would love to see this with two on each side, it might fix the imbalance of force put off by the 1-2-1-2 jabbing pattern

[@Zero-Point-nx4rm]

At 12:38 , the firing delay reminds me of the Allies' Pacifier FAV (Forward Artillery Vehicle) from Command and Conquer Red Alert 3's Uprising DLC, it even has a similar bullet drop and spread now that I mention it. That design could make for some interesting artillery challenges.

[@Zero-Point-nx4rm]

Now that I listen to it again, it even has the same firing sound (only lower pitched than the Pacifier FAV)
