Making a Functional Tank to Destroy Trailmakers

[@ReidCaptain]

What else do you want to see me make in Trailmakers?

[@snowboyz0825]

You could make a quadcopter

[@Mexican2314]

Ac-130

[@Gaaaaaame]

A vehicle with automatic collision avoidance

[@yun_ique1]

make a rs-28 sarmat superheavy intercontinental ballistic missile thermonuclear bomb

[@rafaelmelchert722]

i think a motorcycle would be pretty cool

[@blanana_m]

There is a mod for Trailmakers called the ComplexityMod which allows you to set a new complexiblility limit. The game can get really unstable if you go too far though

[@DigitalJedi]

I find 2000 is about where it dies. Others only get 1400 but I've seen builds as huge as 4000. I think a lot depends on your CPU power for the game to calculate on.

[@dshcfh]

@@DigitalJedi It will also vary greatly depending on what pieces you're using, they came up with their own "complexity" metrics that probably aren't 100% accurate to how much CPU/RAM it will use, just like every other game

[@DigitalJedi]

@@dshcfh Oh absolutely. Servos get glitchy real fast, even within the current vanilla limits. Suspension however can stack to the moon and be mostly fine. I've just noticed that having more compute power can brute-force higher complexity to an extent.

[@adamarney6229]

It’s nice how this guy does more then I’ll ever be able to do in life while playing video games just for fun

[@cerberusslavomiraarus1308]

When I saw your design with pistons extending and retracting, I thought about something like a Viking Boat

[@jiegao3591]

Tank steering is just one of those things that just doesn't work in trailmakers and it's really hard to make it work properly. Edit: even cheating with wheels doesn't work, the tank just bounces.

[@milesmcallister8542]

Are you really sure you are correct.

[@dragorans9599]

I do this routinely on my PS4, full neutral steering just using engines without any bugs, working exactly like in real life

[@crazybird199]

He can never just make a simple vehicle, can he? (But really, these are epic)

[@arandomnpc6409]

Just imagine Reid Captain playing Minecraft with the "Create" mod

[@gmhs2]

Now imagine it with Create Aeronautics and its sister mods, he could straight up make a flying tank or something using that.

[@tvnker]

bro could make a literal army after giving him a few blocks and tools

[@Just_rEd_57]

This reminds my of that 8-leged tank thing from Star Wars. Edit: its called an "at te walker" apparently. Also, that first design with the pistons reminds me of the way centipedes and millipedes move, you should make something like that! Maybe not in trailmakers because of the complexity issue but it could be fun to try non the less.

[@acalypha_]

Some build tanks in games made for building tanks, others just make it work...

[@soupcangaming662]

don't know why, but it just feels better when you make something that wasn't designed with the game than something that was, like making a tank in a car game

[@jackfastcool]

5:04 RC don't use an angle meter, use a compass!!! Here's why: the ball in the angle sensor will always try to go up, so if you are going over the peak of a hill, it will change the position of itself and mess up your timing! The compass will always point North, and as you are on largley flat terrain (i.e. not 90 degrees upward) it will keep on pointing North and not mess up your timing!

[@ReidCaptain]

If I turn the entire machine though it will mess up the timings. I've had this issue with my sub as well, and just using distance sensors is way easier

[@jackfastcool]

@@ReidCaptain ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh yea... I forgot about that xD Also - just an idea - try to make a boat that launches torpedoes out of a turret, I have tried it, and just about made it work because of jank physics...

[@Sejiko]

@@ReidCaptain you can build a simple timing loop just with logic. switch on extended mode give a logic block delay and pause and a toggle then it should send out periodically a signal.

[@gumunderthetable]

I've been watching all of your videos on trailmakers, I love it 🤣🤣 you solve all of your problems by making more problems and it's awesome

[@zednotdead]

Finally, the weapon to surpass Metal Gear.

[@ryannovel8892]

Scrapman shall give this creation a try... 100%

[@jonnylaw4569]

I'd love to see a crossover episode with these two guys

[@drikes_online]

I feel like Ried Captain is the Nile red of video games

[@Awesomekraken677]

MAAAAA! THERE'S A WEIRD FOCKIN TANK OUTSIDE

Have you tried out Space Engineers? It's got all sorts of gizmos and gadgets to mess around with, like most things a a **liiitle** bit of jank but i recommend it none the less!

Man that Tank goofy af

[@Keiichi4444]

What about making some kind of a USUAL car? maybe very complicated but the one that just go fast and steer good)

[@the_sund]

Fun fact: in Russian "tank track" called by the same word as "caterpillar" ("Гусеница" - [ˈgusenitsa])

[@B----------------------------D]

У французов такое же.

[@melonlord1956]

this guy sounds like the nilered of gaming

[@Cuddlefish_from_Subnautica]

I just got this game and was able to make a sort of armored car tank hybrid with an adjustable block with 6 tank cannons

[@oxibound5945]

There's unlimited complexity mod. You should use it.

[@Donke267]

I think these are the types of creations for Scrap Mechanic

[@dshcfh]

I think adding a mod to increase/remove the complexity cap would be fair game Other games don't try to keep you from crashing your own computer, why should this one?

[@DRUNKRUSSAIN2]

You need a single pair of drive sprockets ⚙️

[@maxboskeljon6440]

Istg how far will you go with these vids man?? Insane!

[@NoName36865]

The mechanics for the tank remind me a lot of Strandbeests, if you don’t know what that is you should definitely check it out.

[@anshsgh6092]

he made one in polybridge 2

1AD's (First Armored Division's) motto: Big boy tanks go boom.

[@mincat1412]

Imagine seeing this beast on the battlefield… I’d be running the other way.

[@LettuceGayming]

I’d shoot it because it has minimal armoring and one cannon, and it would only take a small vehicle with a singular large cannon to destroy it

I remember just making a block of thrusters and he is making this

Can you make a plane with an auto-pilot mode in trailmakers?

VTOL?

just use template vechiles in sandbox to get the tank

No fun

[@VampiricsAK]

you really should get a hand of some mods there are some taht will just increase your complexity limit the games engine will just die at about 2-3k from waht i heard of course only if its used to the max xd sadly i have 0 idea where to get theese mods i just see them in some trailmakers videos
