Robocraft - idea - Rotating platform and stationary weapon

The fact that this is becoming canon somewhat in Robocraft 2 is amazing

[@mccvargues7792]

I come back to this video from time to time

[@skeletor4093]

Hey I'm not sure if you're aware or not, but Freejam's making a Robocraft 2, and this is one of the features they made, unfortunately there still isn't a release, even a beta, but the devs said that they'll soon publish a release so people can test out the barebones. All of this and more is in their discord server if you want to check it out!

Why isn't this a thing yet? Is just the greatest idea!

[@justascarecrow6988]

indeed , its kinda sad to see freejam has rejected that more than just genius well thoughtout idea wich such potential to make robot building more advanced , and so more rewarding for those cleverly placing their weapons instead of just a cube with a bunch of shields and a big ton of smg wasps , at least you table and chums a great source of new players for freejam stand behind this idea.

[@hishamsayd9909]

it would be too hard to control if this thing was really in robocraft if we have more than 2 of these rotating platforms. I am not rejecting t. it is a cool design that i need in robocraft too

[@thespringgamer7759]

Hisham Sayd IF they would add it they would probably need it a lot to make it easy controlled not laggy max of rotation platform yea you understand

Should actually be in the game, Especially the fact it would make it easier to aim and whatever

[@jxkeplays]

+The VideoGamingSheep OMG BEST IDEA EVER CONFIRMED?!?!?!? WOOHOO!! :D

[@karbengo]

I have to admit. This is very well done and got me salivating at the idea of rotors. Sadly, the devs have said very specifically they do not want articulated joints in their game. So as cool as this video is, and as much as I wish this was real, unless Freejam developers change their mind and rework their game engine to support multiple colliders, we have little hope to see the ideas present in this video ever introduced to Robocraft.

[@META_mahn]

karbengo I don't know, Mark might be recomsidering.

[@karbengo]

META_mahn Mark maybe yes, but Mike, the head programmer had a lengthy post in the suggestion section of the forum about this video. robocraftgame.com/forums/topic/mind-freaking-blown-that-connectors-vid/page/3/ He goes one later why this concept would be hard to implement and said it would not add enough to the game to be worth the effort. I am paraphrasing of course. You should read this tread to get a an accurate idea of his position. Personally I am still not convinced and I am trying to figure out a way to implement custom turrets that would be simple, cost effective and enjoyable to players.

[@rikanoniem5214]

karbengo Mark said he loves it. Our prayers have been heard!

[@karbengo]

Rik Anoniem Yes, he loves it. Now let's see what will come out of the next development meeting they will certainly have over this. Even if mark is favourable to the idea, that doesn't mean it will be realised. Fingers crossed.

[@Chris-ht5ng]

Haha, I'm not sure if Freejam have forgotten about creativity being 80% of the fun in the game. Without the need to design and test well made bots the game is just a crappy mobo clone which Is sad because it was easily my favourite game before the meta changed.

[@hhhhaaaaxxxxx]

Tanya Sapien Same here! :D

[@TarsonTalon]

kris220b I'm glad you seem to have deduced the problem to your obstructed angle of fire due to having to use multiple guns, and not the firepower of the over-tiered weapon. If I happened to be one of those 'plasma pricks' that blew you up, I'm sorry. I just wanted to make a competitive little buggy that functioned like a Warthog from Halo. Perhaps firepower and movement speed enhancer blocks should be added so that over-tier robos only have an aesthetic advantage?

[@kris220b]

Tarson Talon well as far as i remember nearly all warthogs comes with a 3 barreled gatling gun, not a plasma cannon

[@adammcknight9989]

i personally dream of a water map with robocraft, i then thought of EXACTLY this! I thought of megabots being massive sea battleships shooting huge cannons at long ranges at the enemy battleship. I thought of torpedoes, submarines, sails, paddle wheels, everything. massive ships of the line brawling in the open waters, pounding off chunks of blocks until they are a hopeless wreck, unable of movement. All of these, I thought of, and if the devs could ever make this a reality, I will cry with joy

[@nudnud9]

Adam Starhawk so FTD in robocraft? dream on, robocraft's cheap engine can't take it.

[@The_Archer-he2ft]

Adam Starhawk that would be col that would make hovers have a bit more use but you have to remeber if they did do this they would have to change the current map choosing thing as someone could have had a wheeled or tank track bot that would sink even if they added floaters tank treads would be no more

[@adammcknight9989]

yeah, there would be a seperate garage for watervehicles, and when you select that garage, you only play in water maps

[@kippi14]

Adam Starhawk Water playmode, ground playmode, sky playmode, and normal playmode. What about a test chamber map when you have to break through walls to get to the enemies?

[@tortture3519]

Adam Starhawk and think of that if planes could have bombs to drop, and also seas would be amazing but sea maps would be only for flying and water vehicle's

It's good it's a great idea for developers that don't listen to fans... Smh

[@Archimedes.5000]

Damn this video was more high effort than all RC updates past that point lmao Thankfully RC2 seems high-effort as well

[@DreznorTTG]

From what I see on the Robocraft 2 Steam page, it looks like these might actually become a thing!

[@AMX0013]

After 7 years , we got it ! Robocraft 2 tho

[@MooseWolf2000]

This is what Robocraft needs! Not some team orders or removing overtiering. People want a cool game, not a boring, fair one. If people are bad at the game, let them be bad. The Devs should stop with the game-balancing updates, and make additions like this.

[@TarsonTalon]

MooseWolf2000 Alternatively, if the devs can't implement rotors, perhaps they could add firepower and movement speed enhancer blocks? That would take away the agility and angle of fire advantages an over-tier has, since enhancer blocks could make having one gun and four wheels a plausible design choice without over-tiering.

[@MooseWolf2000]

Tarson Talon It seems you haven't played the game in a while. They added helicopter rotors into the game a few months back, I want to say it was March.

[@TarsonTalon]

MooseWolf2000 Turret rotors. Not helicopter rotors. I guess I should have called them 'rotary platforms' . I stopped playing the game after the over-tier patch, and friends who were just getting into the game at T1 quit because they knew there was no point in grinding when unlocking new guns gives no benefit, and certainly no point in buying anything that you are restricted in using any of it anyway. RIP single turret designs.

[@MooseWolf2000]

Tarson Talon Ah, I see. When you say the over-tier patch, are you talking about the patch that came just a day or two ago? If so, yeah, I know what you mean, the patch utterly broke almost all my bots, such a disappointment.

[@TarsonTalon]

MooseWolf2000 The worst thing is it didn't help noobs any. Gun beds and tri-force is the new meta. All the update did was deny people from making the bot they WANT to use while staying competitive and force people to make a bot they NEED to use in order to stay competitive.

No one is arguing that point.

Changeling Grimm what is it? also i see you everywhere XD

[@HypercaffinatedBees]

george archer it's called Machine Craft made by a Japanese developer, but people are mainly Russian on it, it's one of those 'hard to learn, hard to master' games. robocrafters are everywhere on it too. here's the download if you wanna try it out: hrpbk2.wix.com/machinecraft#!download/c9qb the block limit is 7K, and that's about the only limitation you have. there's no dedicated fighting servers, as the game is very small. *_also, all the tutorials on youtube are in Russian, and very dated, but you should still be able to use them_*

[@Nord_Act]

It's me 7 years later. They actually did a reference to this video in Robonews

rotato platformo

[@TheLoveMario]

If the engine is tweaked to support this and everything gets implemented, you know what we'll be able to make out of these? MECH ARMS. FREAKIN' MECH ARMS

[@Tomaj12864]

Melee weapons with same hp as legs?

[@SKyE_ve]

+Tomaj FUCK YEAH!!!! oh wait we have tesla's that needs buffing :)

[@TheLoveMario]

but if we want melee weapons, then we also should have a way to control how the platforms act... Platform Programming block: you can place it on a rotating platform, and it would allow you to program the platform to act differently. Without this block, the platforms would just follow the mouse. Placing the block brings up an interface, then you can select a button input, and then how the platform acts. For example: input Mouse1 action RotCCW 0.5 3 action RotCW 0.2 7 reset this would detect when you click the mouse button, then it does a slow rotation (speed 3) counterclockwise for 0.5 seconds, then a fast rotation (speed 7) clockwise for 0.2 seconds. This performs a swing. You could also program an additional platform for rotating a custom axe weapon with tesla blades on it... The possibilities are endless. The reset function simply returns the platform back to it's original rotation. (where the red arrow was pointing when you placed it)

[@Aceleo209]

I swear I thought this was a tutorial for robocraft 2 but then I remember watching this a long time ago. Time flies and the game actually implemented this

[@FroggBoy1]

the crazy part is that the original thumbnail for Robocraft had rotating pivot blocks, and yet it took an entire sequal to actually get it

[@spikeguy33]

Awesome idea. And not impossible to implement. Btw, awesome animation, must have taken a lot of work to do (having played around with 3d studios myself).

[@by010]

UrbanTarzan Duh +1 implementing would require core changes into physic emulation and would take literally months. I mean like 6 or more months to make it running, than testing, debugging, etc etc, so it might just set robocraft over year longer in beta phase. BUT I love idea!

[@elqueso5312]

.,|by010|,. Robocraft has already prototyped this i the past, while the game was still in META. Some of their work is still probably stored on a disk somewhere, so at least we know that it won't take THAT long. Just some compatibility fixes with the newer META, especially with TX-1 cannons.

[@by010]

Mitchell Adkins I mean... they would need to make very core changes into physics... that would take a shitload of time. everything to port from a srcatch. of course if they want their own enviroment...

[@elqueso5312]

Oh, that i know :D It's the mechanics of the stationary gun/ rotatable platform i was talking about, not the physics. Sorry if i got you confused :D

[@voidui8246]

.,|by010|,. Even if it takes lots of time, they can build it overtime WITHOUT having us knowing about it, but because FJ cares about like no creativity, I doubt they will do it, maybe have a few beta testers, I would do some coding myself and dont mind not getting paid

ROBOCRAFT 2 GG he made it !!!

[@theubercannon]

This brings me the vision of Robocraft as is when it was first playable. There were 1x1 pivot joints that could twist, aim up and down aim left and right. Sadly they had to be removed because the servers suffered terribly in a torture machine because of their effect on performance. It'll be sweet when they add these once their servers are capable of handling multiple collisions. Also, there is a game called Machinecraft that has these joints, and allows you to use blocks that are all 1x1 to create something larger than a megabot. But sadly, many don't play it. But i, BobdaBuiscut, and possibly a few others.

+Feline Assailant Wow, I just figured out you could shape the turret ring to basically "combat" the rail shot, or putting the turret ring a bit under the armor so it is protected, But it would be a good way of dealing with this "class", shooting at the turret ring.

[@jacoballott2917]

+LibertyOfDoom but wouldn't that just block it's motion? Unless under the turret you have a weaker spot like real tanks have under it. so it would still die if you "cut" the turret with the rails of you hit that layer

This is exactly what I thought of before watching, but: 1) needs to be a limit on being able to gunbed 2) there should be a TX1-TX10 where you unlock all the mechanical stuff 3) you should be able to have pistons as well, ect. If I can get a job as a programmer for Robocraft someday, I might try to add this stuff. They do have programmers needed, and I do know how to program....

[@andrewz3449]

it'd be realy hard to calculate collision and stuff. Also, like my suggestion, guns could heavily burden turntables, stationaries should take like 3x as much CPU or at least have to be a certain distance from other guns more expensive, maybe not blocks. Also, they should replace front-mount with stationary. It would just be really hard to program, even if accomplished, very laggy. We all saw that rail turret in the examples and got scared. Basically, they should have a lot less practicality and efficiency, but have equaled firepower and are protected in return. Maybe a diminishing returns, more turrets fire slower, or something... whatever

[@andrewz3449]

on second thought, it'd be a LOT BETTER to just make platforms require immense CPU. What if u stacked 5 platforms on toppa each other? What if u put a top mount non-stationary on a turret? What if u put thrusters/wings/wheels/helicopter blades or legs (XD) on a turret? So many questions, so many possiblilities. or what if u made a spinning tesla chainsaw of death? >:D

[@davida2810]

Andrew Zhao spinning telsa chainsaw of death FTW. I want features like rotors because of all the possibilities and creativity.

[@davida2810]

Andrew Zhao just use your set x to x pos y to y pos and then collisions set x pos to x and y pos to y trick XDDDD

incredible idea for either creative, compact or both designs, created 6 fucking years ago and forever ignored

[@aqz7603]

Robocraft has ceased development. Also, this function would break the balance of robocraft harder than it already is. You would also get a bunch of veterans complaining about how their old bots are ruined since this playerbase is incapable of appreciating anything in the game.

[@dukecatfishjunior6291]

@@aqz7603 i mean balance is devastated hard enough by those sprinters with ions and rails. if anything, i'll be happy if that lets people counter that with other types of bots as for the complaining part? i kinda understand them, because some of the things got ruined by changes like wings controls, they're extremely erratic for non mouse controlled gameplay or hovers, which are now way snappier and either make the bot function perfectly on any environment or backflip 15 times half the times you try to fight i'm not gonna even talk about nanos, that part hurt me the most freejam is like a self entitled kid too insecure to admit their mistakes, because they never reverted anything actually bad that they did

[@aqz7603]

@@dukecatfishjunior6291 Adding this suggested idea would just break the balance harder, as it doesn't actually do anything to fix the meta. It would likely just result in a more annoying meta where people put electroshields on these mounts to protect and hide their guns making them impossible to shoot off. Hovers need to be built properly and piloted properly to not do 360s and backflips. Freejam has reverted a ton of stuff and actually improved on some of it. they brought the tech tree back, the different kinds of cubes, and the tier matchmaking system and actually fixed a lot of the seal clubbing since you cant just strap a high level rail onto a few blocks of helium and decimate newer players or put a high level plasma on a few wings and thrusters and break the game way harder than meta sprinters ever will.

[@dukecatfishjunior6291]

@@aqz7603 Yet T5 shields are still the shit, heavy cubes are useless because bulky bots get decimated by meta sprinters and teslas still stomp on anyone below average. Tiered matchmaking would be fine... if it worked, that is. You can still see a bunch of players from different tiers being queued together. And the "elo" system doesn't exactly work, you can have 2 protonium players match up against 1 gold with rest being either bronze or bots. Oh and platoons are a whole another story. Making well protected guns would bring extra flavor into the game, because what do players do if guns get shot off easily? They spam their crafts with guns so hard it becomes a layer of protection. If you wanna tightly pack guns, give them rotating platforms and protection, that'll cost A LOT of valuable pFLOPS. Also keep in mind that stationary weapons themselves cannot rotate at all, and it doesn't get nullified completely by existance of rotating platforms. Weapons WILL have offset aim, which will make shooting smaller bots WAY HARDER. It also should be noted that the platform itself must be well secured, so it can't be shot off to make the craft lose all guns it has. I don't think it's too hard to balance that. Different cubes. Right, because 4 whole types, one of which is obsolete and the other is niche at best, is good. Can we for a moment talk about what happened to plasmas? Higher tier ones have such a sad low fire rate they lost their identity. It was fine as a burst weapon. Now it's just... why even bother when we have smgs? Some of the things they did revert, but those were so horrible that even freejam couldn't handle the shame, like loot boxes. Building hovers is now harder than it needs to be because of their snappy behaviour. you either get it perfectly or horribly. there's no in between. And what brought them to taking down megabots at some point? Was it like, because it wasn't what they wanted for the game? Why remove something that players love? And no, i won't credit them for returning megabots, because their current iteration is rather pathetic. Also notice how online rates in statistics started steadily declining since 2016? It's not even because of their lack of development that online had declined. It's because of bad decisions. And yes, i will put tier system removal somewhere around 2015 out here. Given the post in that year by one of the developers, Mark, i will say this: he had in mind something that doesn't actually sound bad given the problems they had and wanted solved at the time. Problem is that it wasn't well executed

[@aqz7603]

@@dukecatfishjunior6291 Most of the playerbase doesn't play the meta at T5 so heavy cubes are still very useful. In my experience, the elo system works very well and I rarely get rolled or roll games despite a small playerbase. I agree that plasmas aren't in a great state right now but you can't complain about a single weapon being unbalanced when you glorify the "golden age" despite it being full of seal clubbers running darts and other meta builds. There will always be unbalance and meta in a game like robocraft because it is a pvp game. Despite this, I still see plasma sandwiches used by higher-level players in T5 matches and they can usually do very well with them. SMGs require a bit of aim to pick off important components + you need to spend a decent amount of time exposed to deal a good amount of damage. With plasma, you can fly over someone and dump a good chunk of damage onto your target before they have a good chance to fight back. Your question about megabots should be directed towards the developers, not me. I have no idea why they removed megabots but I doubt FJ would just remove something for literally no reason. If I had to guess it would be over balance reasons and because they planned to implement things that were not compatible with megabots. Hence why they only returned in custom games as to not disrupt the balance of regular play. When people get their guns shot off easily, they triforce their guns and try to not expose them. for T5 and T4 you cant just place 10 guns on your robot and expect to do well in a game, and for lower tiers, the guns have very low health and can be shot off pretty easily. Assuming platforms were added exactly like in the video, it would be extremely easy to protect them. They rotate in a fixed area meaning electroplates can be added around the edge of their circumference making them even more invincible and making the T5 electroplate meta even more prominent.
