Making An Overengineered Submarine in Trailmakers

[@ReidCaptain]

What else do you want to see me make/try?

[@holyschmoe1466]

make a balistic missile submarine, or truck, that can move

[@jaktheawesome]

Congrats on 200k

[@holyschmoe1466]

A multi stage rocket

[@furriesinouterspaceUnited]

I found a glitch in poly bridge when jf you attach a road to a shape and move the shape really far away the road becomes super long

[@holyschmoe1466]

I also something cool where someone takes an asteroid and lands it on kerbin, maybe landing it on the mun would be even cooler, and quite a challenge

[@westinwalker6539]

You should play stormworks build and rescue. It’s a super fun game similar to trail makers, besiege, scrap mechanic, and a lot of the other games you play.

[@wargamer-ue3lk]

Yes that would honestly boost his building scope and the mechanics he can make.

[@sunshinepup639]

YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS pls ried captain (it will be pog)

[@McMvrck]

I Love stormworks but I wish I was intelligent enough to actually make my own good creations

[@mareksoucek4514]

Would be nice. But it would be I oversimplefied, not overengineered🤣

[@ezrakornfeld8436]

Yes I have like 1.5k hours on stormworks and it would be AWESOME for him to play it

[@derpslayer6923]

Helicopter engines create their own gyroscopic effect which is why it rotated in the air, also there’s an entire aerodynamic blocks tab, and setting the servo power to zero would make them more loose as well. Love your vids and creations :3

[@nico_qwer1732]

Damn, it’s really impressive that it was able to go alone like that. Good job, as always!

[@electroninja7419]

As a member of Wedgegang, I was having a stroke watching him build the submarine in the initial stages.

[@johnadler6987]

Same.

[@ludvigarstrand9666]

same wedge gang for life

[@khalifizikriazzam834]

Wedge gang

[@arsonbasedpotato]

Wedge gang 4eva

[@antoniolozic1517]

For stabilizing the submarine you should set the angle sensor width to 182 degrees so it doesn't roll left and right constantly, and if it still does it try decreasing the speed of the engines and also use 2 engines instead of one to stabilize since its much better to stabilize

[@milesmcallister8542]

or you can put the buoyancy control on top

[@kenzo_1172]

"welcome abort captain, all systems online"

[@michdoesstuff]

You should either play stormworks or space engineers. Both games I think would fit what you do.

[@ludvigarstrand9666]

i asked him on discord but he said no:(

[@OTZDarv]

dang this is actually really cool, I would love to see more of the automated builds!

[@jossepililugo9476]

The fact you made a working autopilot submarine is sick

[@JiggleboneJones]

Definitely give Stormworks a go. Great weather simulation and good logic. Building is pretty intuitive too

[@Slak3r]

Love when your following your own submarine with another one!!

[@mustoskiff1321]

Ever tried stormworks? Imo it's one of the best engineering sandbox games out there.

[@adventures_with_someone]

That diving ball with the blocks near it makes it look like the cyclops from subnautica

[@adasteele475]

You should try space engineers, its a lot like trailmakers

[@hellohi2516]

I think having the speed of the pistons so high might actually negatively impact performance. The game might not be able to process the physics/sensor logic that fast, meaning the engine will rush to get to the next position, then halt while it waits for the game to catch up, making the engine jerky and unable to build up momentum.

[@rileyham9058]

This isnt the case its because the timings werent exact. Ive got a piston engine boat that generates enough thrust to fly and has reached 150mph. Its also got 2 inline 4s to counter the other ones movement. I have an older more stable version on the gallery but it only goes about 50. Still runs perfectly smooth and cant stall it. The faster one stalls and catches sometimes though. Also -100 is faster than +100.

[@Spork15]

Yknow, as some1 with around 500 hours in this game, actually understanding and knowing the game from experience makes it much easier to relate to you

[@munkemune]

It is very cool whenever you do anything, keep it up man!

[@imakething]

Congrats on 200k!

[@ReidCaptain]

Thanks!

[@teddybacon1483]

This reminds me of my failed childhood attempts to make a lego submarine lmao

[@guarinagarcia2424]

this game has logic gates and with logic you can make entire computers

[@udpbooter]

I found your yt channel and I find your content awesome but just some tips and tricks for trail makers. First using two 1x4 blocks next to each other are in efficient of your “complexity” it’s like a block limit on your creation instead use the 2x4 which will only save one block per use but can be a really big game changer. Also the sub wasn’t staying up straight because all the buoyancy was at the bottom it needs to be placed up top. Also for subs I recommend disabling air controls for the seat, you can use the configuration thing and click on the seat to turn it off

[@Roach18]

As someone who plays Barotrauma, this sub needs more oxygen and power generators, and a welding tool.

[@deerdestroyer]

Just go into the sub editor and start or review a existing sub and edit how they operate.

[@Roach18]

@@deerdestroyer So, i edit how they operate?

[@deerdestroyer]

@@Roach18 yes you go into the wire menu to do this. You should watch a tutorial first tho sorry I didn't tell you that first

[@Roach18]

@@deerdestroyer Ok, i kinda know how wiring works so that should be okay

[@derpyyume]

this is so funny to me, I love this video and the fact he made his own functioning engine in a game where I thought it would not be possible

[@Malcis]

Like a little submarine bath toy, fantastic

[@albertoverbeek4206]

This is so cool!! Awesome video!!

[@timehunter9467]

That’s actually awesome!

[@prussiansoup]

Me each time I hear engineer : E N G I N E E R G A M I N G

[@muddyhummvy]

Reid I have a suggestion when you connect the propeller to the crank shaft use the helicopter engine v2. It works trust me.

[@ContagiousIP]

I love seeing you work in Trailmakers, as one of your videos got me to buy the game. However I have to say, this is one of the most difficult games to work in because of limited “block” capability and size, and the dev team refuses to make adjustments in plenty of cases. They say “there are ways to get around XYZ” and sure… but for a creative game, you want us to work harder and make things bigger to accomplish small contraptions? Anyway, great video!

[@anzion1037]

That's really cool and all, but... underwater engines as a singular part: *exists*

[@GiantTalkingTree]

This was very entertaining to watch thanks for the video.

[@JustSimplyBlues]

Are you NileRed? Your voice over style reminds me so much of him.

[@maxboskeljon6440]

Sick! Could you make a rocket in this game?

[@Exa-Spark]

Wow this is awesome! :)

[@chai_lxx]

These games just aren’t able to cope with this guys brain

[@OnLowBattery]

I'm surprised you haven't played homebrew: patent unknown yet. Seems right up your alley

[@badgermcbadger1968]

Its abandoned sadly

[@OnLowBattery]

@@badgermcbadger1968 still can do a lot

[@Rpx-_-]

Man making history while I'm just making a blob of death

[@wayacrazy.]

GG ON 200K :DDDD

[@TechAndBeyond381]

Definitely try stormworks its perfect for you and this channel

[@krystofbabala9904]

This Reminds me of how I built a self-flying helicopter in trailmakers

[@ichirokai5068]

reid:figuring out the speed and timing of the engine Me:Herd him saying the WEH 6:35

[@chrisakaschulbus4903]

I like the idea of some AI creatures. Like the boats are avoiding obstacles.

[@АнтонТитков-к4р]

Congratulations with 200k subs, will be video about it?

[@tigeo3233]

if i made an add for this it would be "Introducing the all new Telsa model sea, this new model will automatically turn to the right and will keep you at a certain altitude"

[@derlurje1348]

Reid plss look up simple plane Its extremely amazing and you can make anything in it It even has its own programming language

[@badgermcbadger1968]

I prefer stormworks

[@asherhepford7446]

When I watch these videos I'm like hmm... what? Yup. That's how they work. Wait don't do that! I don't know how that works

[@jamietea1072]

if you haven't you should play Stormworks Build And Rescue

[@alexdacat7052]

why don't you use the slope pieces?

[@dragonsoff-metagaming4985]

If you like challenging, try to make a all in one for the high seas dlc. Best I've gotten is combining two near max complexity build.

[@Zedryx69]

make a fleet of them and make them act like those "boid" simulations that try to mimic flocks of birds.

[@vidonicle]

You should play plane crazy on Roblox, lots of physics and opportunities on that game, and a lot of creative stuff you can do

[@magicstew45]

I think your engine problems might be because your crank "journals" are 90° out of phase, yamaha does use this style of engine in some of their motorcycles dubbed crossplane. This style doesn't generally work for anything larger than motorcycle engines due to the unequal forces. Most 4 cylinders have each piston 180° out of phase of the next piston, creating a much smoother engine.

[@cameronr7821]

If you dropped the hinges on the pistons by one block the performance would be so much better

[@mauricio6622]

You should make an engine powered plane in trailmakers

[@banga1081]

You should play space engineers

[@cameronberenyi4129]

Add torpedoes to the submarine

[@spicygoldfish2591]

You should play from the depths, very fun game and l bet you could make some insane stuff in it

[@dompan9169]

Stormworks is better

[@sunshinecoco12]

i saw NullAndVoid21 comment this: ''Now build a bridge in KSP '' on making a rocket in poly bridge and i think you should do that Now build a bridge in KSP

[@jzmc7562]

Every time you post I click immediately lol

[@asherhepford7446]

You should try and use Tail fins Instead of paddles

[@BobBob-ye4vz]

over-engine-ered

[@bayanakaqomar9791]

Hey don't you know that trailmaker already have an under water engine

[@RedHarlow1886]

Now you just need to add missles

[@justinsimnacher2989]

ich weiß direkt am anfang des Videos das er was sehr gutes bauen wird

[@tanyaeasterly164]

Helicopter in beseige

[@alexanderpoukhlovski]

Make a Spinlauncher in Ksp

[@qwerty1271780]

Neat idea!

[@dottedbot3737]

You should try from the depths

[@dompan9169]

Stormworks is basically the same game but actually playable

[@SprintyFromUkraine]

Bro, you have 2x4 blocks, why are you using 1x4 side-to-side?

[@djo_man]

You should really try out stormworks.

[@agnessengco416]

Off course you make a over engineered submarine lol

[@memeslife-wq2tx]

Try making a car with a drive train and a suspension maybe 4 wheel drive in beseige

[@muhamadmoe3583]

You Should build a uav

[@Mr.Potato2900]

complexity: *yes*

[@DaCouchWarrior]

Maybe the main engine problem that is glitchy?)

[@HighAlien.]

as they say if it doesnt look good or round just a wedges

[@sunhengte534]

There's a proper engine and also a a pushing thingy

[@gavinkaltreider4347]

Make a big engine powered boat

[@inkycat7167]

Not that you had to make one… but someone eventually will.

[@serge9492]

Soooo why not add a ground sensor instead of the altimetre and when the sub is >5m to the ground it goes up and if its

[@AlRizz187]

Maybe an over engineered in besiege

[@jeimasuta_v598]

Make an car that flies under ground

[@moisturmountaineer4611]

there are... propellors

[@mumblety]

Sweet!

[@trolly4233]

OH MY GOD THIS GAME HAS CLANG

[@bengineer8]

This is cool.

[@NekuroMC]

thats a fish

[@Comic_Crew]

U should probably team up with real civil engineer

[@reedsterling5785]

I loved this vid

[@dylanblack-shell9002]

this is infuriating and i don't know why I'm still watching it.

[@wingeun5236]

dude can you upload this to the gallery? i want to drive it

[@Browthpdd]

Day 22 of asking Reid Captain to try space engineers.

[@trintonflood2964]

yay an upload 🙂

[@hiddenhood483]

He should have painted it yellow

[@beaclaster]

heli engine v1?

[@wat159]

Why is the submarine cute in a way?

[@wildwyatxbox]

here we go again

[@Kevin-li8eg]

Build a car that does a similar thing to the sub

[@tianming.]

now put a slbm on there and i'll be happy
