I Created a Supersonic Gearbox Using 1 Simple Trick! (Screw Drivers)

[@_miobrot_603]

The map looping is bugged. when you loop, your x/y co-ordinate flip sides relative to the centerline of the map (the snakey ramp). Like if you were 2 tiles to the left, after you loop you'll be 2 tiles to the right. You're correct.

[@MarkoDash]

The way I ended up doing it was to start at the top of the main road heading south, as long as you hold that line when the map loops you then want to drift right 3 lines (as defined by the strike through crosses) you'll be lined up with the road again

[@PennyEvolus]

The reason for that is called mirror looping and its a method used to simulate bounces in 8ball pool games but i think sphere looping would be best

[@pws3rd170]

What drove me crazy was that the minimap shows his X axis not lined up even when he was way away from the mini map area

[@snotrod7]

Does anyone else remember when Kan used to absolutely mop the floor with the competition for the old multiplayer Mondays SM races?

[@Beregorn88]

and now he's barely able to wrap his head around the difference between torque and theoretical max speed... the brainrot is real 😢

[@MrLarsgren]

you missed the longer axle that got added too. you could add a gear with each planet gear so you have a 3 speed shifter. that should help alot

[@user-dj3nq8ty1o]

Yes, also him and a lot of others on youtube seem to not use what they have very well to get better performance with less effort.

[@darthkarl99]

22:30 "i think that blip was when we crossed the map threshold" Use the minimap luke!

[@YoYoK3nny]

Just 1 problem with that, the minimap doesn't know how to deal with being past where the map border would normally be, hence why it just sits at the edge of what it knows is there.

[@darthkarl99]

@@YoYoK3nny It still shows that you swapped ends and gives you a rough idea of where you are laterally.

[@Kappaツ]

and now you need to build an engine that breaks the sound barrier in Gearblocks xD

[@ala5530]

It's not that your engine noise is missing (it's there, at least in my headphones, just as a muted bass), it's that with the front axle drive gear you're not getting the noise from the planetary gears. What you think is the engine noise (the higher pitched whining vroom) is actually coming from your gearing.

[@blindtraveler844]

hint:: you can use the map to align yourself back with the road.. the arrow is your actual location alignment with the main road .. so long as you align your arrow with the road on the map you will be perfectly lined up and drive down the road.. i was lucky i figured that out pretty quickly.. watching you youtubers struggle with it i have to comment to make your lives easier

[@coryman125]

I had a lot of fun with this game, but stopped playing it because the issues were piling up. It's really nice to see how many of them have been fixed since! It was mostly quality of life stuff to do with the builder, like the lack of symmetry, switching between parts easily, etc.

[@186scott]

It would be good to see the devs add a blue print feature so for example when you multi select pieces you then press a button to save it as a blue print and then on annother creation you press a button to load a saved blueprint

[@VioletSaathoff]

7:47 the top speed/acceleration stats don't factor in wind resistance, and the acceleration stat is calculated at your peak torque

[@sirforcer]

I think a 3rd gear with a ratio between the two you have currently would help a ton with acceleration.

[@Alfred-Neuman]

When I read the title I thought he made something that isn't completely bad but I was very wrong... His car is mega poop! I'm not too sure now if we can really help him with this game :(

[@Sausketo]

I have an idea, add a gear in between the planetary gears, with an axle/axles running next to them, to grab the outputs between each planetary gearset, so you can just shift between them

[@gokselaras9002]

High end acceleration problem was coming from trying to power all planetery gears at once all of a sudden. Your low-end(torque) and high-end(speed) transmission idea was good but if you put some space between planetery gears and activate each individual planetery gear with different gear would be much more efficient. So we are looking at a 6 gear gearbox. G1 Torque and 1 planetery gear G2 Speed and 1 pg G3 Torque and 2 pg G4 Speed and 2 pg G5 Torque and 3 pg G6 Speed and 3 pg One 2 gear and one 3 gear shifter is all it takes

[@jacobmorse2564]

I love this game, and I want to thank you for introducing it to me. My favorite ever game just got its 1.0 release, so I’m watching you play this while I build some nuclear power plants. But I really need to get back to this too.

[@kiraisaginger8259]

I've built a few supersonic planes and the physics get really finicky to say the least. A few tips I would follow is less = more. Try to keep your build as light as possible (the game gives any extra weight a large impact on speed performance) as well as having 2 - 4 sets of "propellers" (i recommend only using the carbon fiber ones for weight). The game seems to have troubles with maintaining the same power output with high speed prop engines placed side by side and causes spinning out of control (similar to the issues you encountered when reaching a certain speed with your designs) i recommend having them situated front to back. Also just have a very high gear ratio, hope Kan sees this and helps him get that awesome supersonic flyer ❤.

[@VinusWasTaken]

hi kan! i wanted to say something i found when configuring engines in gearblocks, if you right-click on the text that displays the number you can type in a value that can exceed the usual limits i did this and i got an engine to run at 8000 rpm

[@darthkarl99]

As others have mentioned, more gears would have helped you so much. I've actually built a 9 speed gearbox in screw drivers, and the low speed acceleration is insane. For supersonic you need to gear up the engines going in but it's very much a huge advantage. Pretty sure the lack of engine noise is because the game doesn;t know how to handle having the drive axel change when you change gears. There was no real need to do it that way you do either, you could have driven both axles with 2 or more gears.

I'ma try to hit a building this time going the speed of sound - kAN 2024 Lmao I love this channel

[@blueflame_sm]

The data shown by the game displays theoretical maximum acceleration (and speed). The curve of a gas engine isn't flat like a lb electric one. I say theoretical because it doesn't account for wheel-spin (or air resistance for max speed)

[@drewlucas6266]

As you approach the speed of sound, the engines may be reaching their soft-limiter. They are behaving like most diesels do: approaching the rev limiter, but gradually slowing down as they do so. This may be occuring on top of the existing aerodynamics of an empty flatbed railcar.

[@warfin1379]

when i made mine i did a 3 speed and the top speeds for each gear was about 1st 300~350 2nd 650~750 3rd ~1400 i used a mixture of gears, while keeping it compact

[@DatFatBoiii]

love the content

[@MrMattkid]

Couldn't you make a legit gearbox and have a much smoother acceleration curve? Also, don't the electrics have better torque, so wouldn't having a hybrid work better?

[@Tom89194]

The problem with a proper gearbox has been aerodynamics, you have to expand profile of the vehicle to get a gear shifter past the outside of the planetary gears to shift them, so the extra aerodynamic drag hasn't been easy to compensate for since aero really only matters in your last gear. Although the electrics have better low end torque, they have a lower operating speed, so what happens is that the electric engine becomes dead mass(It basically shuts off) when the gas engines start to make power. The hybrid combo is great for adding low end torque on rally cars, especially before you have enough parts to do proper gearboxes, but they end up being very heavy dead weights on cars like this.

[@zephranarx2172]

Game went from unintentionally having plane physics to having functional plane parts.

[@trevorgbauer]

if you add a final drive after your gearing it will help out with the slower acceleration

[@arctic_void]

I built a similar vehicle with electric engines. Experiment stacking them while facing each other with a 3 block axis and small gears to take the power out. Then stack the 2 engine combo parallel or in series

[@Bardiya0]

If you want to avoid the obstacles, when you teleport you have to go 2 lines to the left I hope this helps everyone ❤

[@anteshell]

7:00 You could drive all wheels with different gear ratios without ever disconnecting them and it would still work just fine. Just slab an engine on the front wheels with small gearing and forget about it. No need to disconnect them, as the magic gears allow the game to always calculate the highest torque and ignore the rest. So, when in real life your front wheels would then turn slower than rear wheels, in this game you can just flat out ignore it. Also, you should just use electric engines for acceleration. Following the same logic of magic gears, even when they max out their RPM, the don't hinder the whole system from going even harder because the game simply ignores them. Essentially, the game considers max() function as the fundamental truth and ignores the rest.

[@maskharat]

Multi select and moving parts? Nice. Having to delete and rebuild stuff all the time was the most annoying thing that drove me away from the game. Hopefully the next thing to fix is the side teleport when going back to the other side of the map.

[@Clr-Clr]

[@crimzonplays1134]

I keep getting closer to the sound barrier, but the fastest I’ve gone is 1158 km/hr. Yes, I have nine years which does make my vehicle wider.

[@dragade101]

There's still seemingly the glitch where planetary gears don't work solo and have to be attached to a gear train sadly

[@Tom89194]

I kinda just copied your build to see if it could go further. I dropped the front drive and replaced it with more engines then just drove through 3 planetary gears and then a plate gear to do the 90 bend to the drive axle. It isn't that much slower to build speed since the extra engines make up for a lot and I got above 1500 km/h before I hit the buildings 11 engines and a top gear speed of ~1634

[@SUPERMAR10312]

"i created a supersonic gearbox" wrong you didnt really create a gearbox you created a shifter. no gearbox seen here. with that kind of translation electric engines would have worked so much better. for combustion engines you would need more gears to stay in the optimal rpm range. because they give more torque but only at the optimal rpm.
