About Trailmakers:
In the toughest motoring expedition in the universe, you and your friends will build your own vehicles to cross a dangerous wasteland. Explore, crash horribly, use your wits to build a better rig, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.
Welcome to the Ultimate Expedition!
Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization - it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find along your way.
Trailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.
Expedition Mode is the challenging campaign mode of Trailmakers. You are competing in an off-world rally expedition with only a few building blocks to get you started. You must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. Journey through a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and dangerous weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity.
Sandbox Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts - the skybox is the limit.
Trailmakers is even more fun if you play it with other people. Build cool vehicles and compete in mini-game modes with your friends or other Trailmakers online. Build a helicopter, send it to your friend, and shoot them out of the sky. Put two seats on a tank, and let your friend control the turret. As we get further in Early Access development Expedition Mode will also be adapted to multiplayer.

[@obliviator2]

I feel like with these kinds of challenges you should not be able to respawn right next to them after your suicide attempt, as it makes it super op to just keep suiciding over and over. I feel like a way to balance it, would be to require you to fly say 100m away from the target before respawning your vehicle, as a way to balance things out and give the player being hunted some time to get their bearings.

[@hardboiled_cat]

signing off under this comment, scrapman should see this

[@villekorhonen824]

Yeah, you are practically spawning inside the defender after first hit. Either safety distance or possibly something like 5-10second delay before you are allowed to spawn again. would force defender to move again instead of possibly finding an camping spot.

[@pcenero]

Another thing is just making them pure ramming, like destruction derby.

[@xc5tnc148]

Respawn back on the spawn point would be a good way to control it, then they could still get cheeky shots in if the OP driver isnt paying attention to where they are

[@lo_zephyr_6427]

Or turn of invincibility, which is a setting option

[@FilteredCrack]

There's no way scrapman and cognito both said "oh yeah" and "alright let's see it" at 3:06 perfectly in sync without planning it first

[@lemonaids7289]

thank god someone mentioned it, it was way too impressive

[@coryman125]

Finally, the proof we've all been waiting for that they're actually just very realistic robots

[@Decay19XX]

I'm honestly baffled, cause there will also be slight audio delay between them yet it came out perfectly.

[@1ndictus445]

I agree with that one comment asking for limitations on respawning, sometimes repairing and respawning right next to the survivor vehicle gets pretty unfair. I'd say a distance limit or time limit before the next respawn is a great idea.

[@theminerboy5694]

I think the easiest way is to make the cars always respawn at the tunnel. That way the cars have to be able to drive reasonably well as well as blow up.

[@brandongammage1060]

Well you've done land and sea... Next is air? Maybe build a plane and a detachable section for a human guided missile that falls away and you can aim for a blimp or something?

[@DearthXalex]

they did human guided missiles

[@FeuerToifel]

an interesting twist to those "duel" gamemodes would be a limited respawn for the attackers.

[@TlalocTemporal]

Stock battle!

[@kwamehope8397]

Scrapman for a future video u should do (overpowered anti-air defense mobile vehicles) vs human guided missiles.

[@sakukoishikawa9847]

Had you build a plane that is powered with jet gimbals?👾

[@louisgoirand5220]

yes

[@crustybomb115]

yep, they made airships already

[@General_NotTaha]

It's not possible, unless it was a helicopter

[@DeusExMamiya]

You could make a plane with only gimbals because you could just fly straight up and glide in whatever direction

[@radontrailmakers]

He's made a plane that achieves forward flight with just gimbals

[@Blackbirdtree1]

is nobody gonna mention the fact that yzuei's car actually started flying lol

[@circuitgamer7759]

Hover vehicle of some kind just above the water (maybe 5 or 10 meters above the water), and jumping submarines with explosives that can jump up into the hover vehicle to blow it up. That is my suggestion :)

[@57thorns]

0:41 Spawning inside definitely does the trick. 🙂

[@Goldomnivore]

🙂

[@DanyF02]

Me after listening to the instructions: So I guess it would make sense to have a retractable shield that covers the TNT so it doesn't get blown up easily as I get closer. Scrapman: I'm gonna build a sick roll care that leaves my character exposed in the center of mass. Someone's taking a page out of Yzuei's book of Form over Function! lol

[@thephantomdriver7210]

You should try and break the sound barrier while wallriding (not on the centerfuge, but the edge of the test zone)

[@jansenmakalawa4941]

Video idea?: planes with no weapons other than 2 dynamite you choose the block limit vs a fully armed battle ship. Goal:the planes must crash into the battle ship, and it must me triggered base so no sensor and setting the dynamite's controls to nothing or to a button you won't press Basically just kamikaze planes to a battle ship

[@Sebe_r35]

I mean you gotta do a space version of this at some point

[@Typicalrn10]

maybe in the vicinity of a planet

[@shawnalbert2717]

I like the idea of the original tank vs the cars. I feel when the cars detonate or get blown up they should have a designated starting point rather than repairing right next to the tank and going again. It makes it pointless to blow them up if they repair right next to the tank and go again.

[@danielwhitmore6244]

I agree, maybe they should use backspace to go to the spawn point instead?

[@Lockbane]

I've had an idea boiling I'd love to see. Team challenge where each team creates and controls a craft to strike a ball. The ball unfolds to become a glider to attempt furthest distance. Both objects being separate crafts created and controlled by each team mate. I believe mitigating the impact of the strike would be the most difficult part but I'm sure there must be a solution to that.

[@remor698]

11:43 That repair bounce almost turned into a completely ridiculous, accidental trickshot.

[@ultimatetybreaker3467]

Explosive planes versus blimp!

[@Banaanionmarja]

I think this would be better compared to planes vs boat since the kamikaze topic could be sensitive.

[@BeefIngot]

I wish the mulligan rules were setup fore hand, like "if its under 30 seconds you can do it again" rather than arbitrary because it hurts the stakes/competitiveness

[@vosechu]

Sometimes you have to focus on having fun instead of having a fair competition.

[@TlalocTemporal]

It wasn't setup beforehand, but it wasn't arbitrary. If the first explosion takes you out, reset. Not that hard.

[@BeefIngot]

@@TlalocTemporal It changed part way through again

[@BeefIngot]

@@vosechu If a competition constantly has changing rules, that diminishes much of the fun to me. I don't think its fair to dismiss that opinion. That is to say, I can see how you feel that way, but I think my stance is valid too.

[@Gabriel_O.]

Video suggestion: Scrapman and Yzuei both make ships that go 50 km/h and they have a stock airplane with a torpedo that can track stuff using sensors. The torp goes about 75 km/h and explodes using a sensor at 0.1 meters distance. Also the torp propeller gets stopped after 30 seconds. There can be a maximum of 3 torps chasing the ship at one time and the ship needs to try to manoeuvre around so that the torps lose track of it. And once the ship cannot move or the player gets kicked out of the seat the timer is stopped. They both play as the ship 2 times and the person with the highest total time overall wins. Thanks - Gabriel O.

[@finnferg1811]

OH MY GOD THEY PUT THE MAUS IN TRAILMAKERS!!1!

[@user-ow8bs4dv7u]

The tanks are clearly inspired in de design MAUS. So cool!

[@AlexCatNN]

Idea for video: Explosive drones VS Overpowered TANK

[@dogebro1]

Scrap is definetly throwing more with these challenges.

[@SecureGM]

1:69 = 2:09. Math is easy. Math is always right.

[@bouwser02]

Video Idea: Low Gravity Explosive Car Chase Similar to this video but with low gravity on hilly terrain, maybe Duna in the space map or the Airborne map dunes with custom gravity. Instead of weaponizing the slow car that is being chased, it is allowed to use downforce (through lift and drag pieces or maybe through thrusters) giving it much more control in the low gravity. The explosive cars would be limited to engine/wheel power only and not allowed any of the parts in the lift and drag category for downforce, but would have higher top speed.

[@ImperialCentaur]

You haven't done any snow themed challenges for a while now. How about small snow mobiles against an over powered bunker/base or the old Antarctic Snow Cruiser mobile base, but an overpowered and armed version.

[@chrismaYT]

Ramming boats one day...

[@devastatorplays2807]

How about human guided glide-bombs vs a tank? Thrust-less gliders with dynamite on the front have to glide into a tank to destroy it. Person who survives longest in the tank wins.

[@WMSAG]

Oh sick, he actually did it : )

[@Chosen1Creator]

At first I thought you were going to take the explosives out of the little cars and do pure melee, but the overpowered tank was fun to see.

[@masterv694]

Still a better idea than flying tanks

[@charlett7985]

This is the earliest ive been cool

[@i5lax47]

New ‘’VS’’ idea --> Flying missles vs ground vehicle :D

[@Gold_hoarder]

They’ve already done that

[@robvanhameren9868]

i think hovercraft battles would be fun. like the allover manuverability

[@arichithechimericvelvetwol84]

If you're looking for a new overpowered tank design, might I suggest basing it off the ratta or the monster. Though they were never finished or built respectively, there should be some images of them online if I remember correctly.

[@seanfitzgerald9815]

You made a prius frame! You HIPPIE! Lol

[@barefootalien]

Hah, very nice Command & Conquer vibes, like NOD chaingun buggies going after a GDI tank!

[@insert_name69420]

iraq in trailmakers

[@lems_anjay]

😮

[@Daniel-sy6gs]

Yessss! More melee!!!

[@anthonyplacek9703]

I would say revamp it for various kinds of "terrain" coverage. So you have air, sea, and tires, you could do balloons, submarine, space, in atmosphere rockets, hoverpads, and even ski based vehicles.

[@trance_hex3728]

scrap should try to make a vehicle using no seat maneuvers and it cannot touch the ground but thrusters are allowed but the thrusters cannot be manually controlled. I would like too see what he does.......

[@Drago_Whooves]

so basically altitude sensors and distance sensors?

[@noahbarlow1646]

It's clear from all these missile videos that a faster defending vehicle is better. The nature of trailmaker physics means armor does very little against dynamite, so it's more interesting when the defender is fast enough to actually dodge the missiles

[@bobisha772]

You could play explosive tag with your bomb trucks. You have to detonate your bomb to tag someone else and while you're "it" you get to use additional power cores like the catchup mechanic you had in the pod racer episode.

[@ninjagamer1686]

What about drones with tank cannons? Im sure that would be fun to work with

[@killerkatz3336]

It's 4:34 in the morning when this video is out. Gn

[@ajhflatline2011]

Should try using drones to fly them into a stationary target. Win is how long you can last defending yourself from the drones as the stationary target. Could be cool to see some remote-controlled drones flying in from the air and divebombing things lol

[@zevgreen5941]

You should try some kind of 3 or 4 person game similar to "Bumper Balloons" from Mario Party, or maybe like the kids game "Tails" where you could set up a mechanism on the backs of each person's car that detaches when it gets grabbed by a magnet block, or triggers a dynamite or something, so the goal would be to get behind the other people and grab their tail/balloon. A fun twist on this could be that everyone has to use walkers, or only hover pads, or something to make the handling of the vehicles clunky and chaotic so it's not too hard to get behind the other people. Obviously tank steering is difficult to get behind, although the cars in the mario party game can turn on the spot, they're just very slow to do so

[@zevgreen5941]

Maybe play it on a survival world so you could use a scrap ball as the tail, have it lay in a slot on peoples' cars and a magnet can pull it out of the slot to get the point for the person/team

[@sorgonlp3296]

Heyy nice vid :) you could also do some Kind of drone Match. Would bw cool i guess

[@SpiderElf-jz6se]

Do battleship with gunner VS kamikaze planes

[@nemonomen3340]

That last round reminded me of the time you did dynamite jousting using airplanes. Has there been an episode of land vehicle jousting yet? That could be cool.

[@berkayyeroglu111]

rcxd: wait, i am you scrapman : no, i am your father

[@kingcroc801]

Some kind of madmax inspired video would be cool Basically different kinds of vehicles or explosive cars against an overpowerd truck

[@numagok]

Man, the Battlefield reference brought me back. Battlefield was too tier back then.

[@lupo19fun]

You squished that second chicken with a tree. Lol😮

[@6Saturn9]

10:30 Perhapskis I got the solution... the tank should not have auto aim, the cannon must be controlled with mice. This way, a shot can be grantee to hit one of the enemies. (making the tank double barreled (shooting separately.) should also be an option to increase the rate of fire.) p.s. I named this idea Delayed Annihilation.

[@anyways2485]

Another "human-guided" challenge. Love it.

[@5peciesunkn0wn]

oooh. I thought the cars were going to be made entirely of explosives and trying to survive the tanks shooting them lol

[@IdrisVanNuffel]

How about a speed challenge? A vehicle is stuffed with explosives that will go off if you drop below a certain speed. Other players need to ram the vehicle to reduce the speed to the point where it explodes.

[@ksawerykonstanty2053]

FINALY a kamikadze concept.

[@KarlSpark]

You should make Perhapskis Merch! 😂

[@davidcanoy8579]

Doing some races with those cars might be fun.

[@SEA-Gaming]

Within 5 mins gang here!

[@cybermelon21]

Do a similar thing, but put a few pieces TNT in or near places like the engines. Make the tanks use bullet based weapons and dont tell each other where the TNT is. Using a smart gun might make it near impossible to aim at the TNT. Whilst a regular cannon might make it hard to hit your target at all. Alowing for some strategy to be used in weapon choice.

[@JS-hj9kg]

Maybe next time kamikaze planes vs a slightly overpowered blimp. :)

[@edopronk1303]

You should go first far more often in these battles; you have the most trailmakers and battle hours probably and the first battle is often the shortest, so that balances it out a little bit.

[@kingofswag2843]

Hovercraft ramming with dynamite would be cool to see

[@zombcrusher666]

This teminded me of the current event in Crossout. Starts out as a 10v2, the 2 gotta drive into the 10, while the 10 can shoot at the 2 like crazy. But when the 2 manage to hit one of the 10, that person joins the 2. This continues until no one of the original 10 is left or at least one of them can escape

[@mammal_man1894]

Plane demo derby would be awesome to see.

[@ethancai9116]

a challenge would be to have say a max complexity creation and when x amount of blocks are taken off you have to switch to a different medium for example if you were a plane after x amount of blocks were taken off u have to switch to a boat or car.

[@rattatoui2654]

This is my RCXD suggestion, pretty cool.

[@joshuabates2200]

Planes! Hover tanks! Submarines! Form vs function of all variations! Tanks with wings or planes with rotating turrets on top or bottom! Hover tanks with rocket boosters and wings! TNT - a - pults! Spacecrafts! Tanks in space! A bunch of very stupid ideas I know, but sometimes stupid fails can be funny. Bomb drones!

[@spider59er35]

The flying tanks guy shall be here soon

[@jordanbos5410]

You should do the same challenge but with more build for the cars to take more damage and do like a Mario cart type chalange where you have 3 lives

[@KarlisRudzitis]

I love your work and I got to say you r a great guy and stay positive

[@AussieBoyLloyd]

ahhh yes the Jihad jeeps i used to love that on that map with the train line in the middle that an caspian boarder ... was a solid tactic to make enemy tanks so paranoid

[@panzer_tank]

yzuei (correct me if i'm wrong) really got the RCXD

[@jonathanharwood-smith3783]

perhaps human guided ICBMs going for an overpowered anti-aircraft tank

[@baconranger4363]

What about doing this again but instead of the dynamite being on the front of the car it's on the back and you have to drop it like a mine layer. Might then allow for the cars to be able to drop more "mines" before needing to repair. Maybe have the 100 block limit not include the mine layer but allow and additional say 50 blocks for this.

[@crispybacon9870]

Love your vids keep up the good work🎉

[@mikistenbeck6517]

i like how the tanks they used is Panzerkampfwagon 8, AKA, the Maus. XD

[@mihalydozsa2254]

No xensors to trigger the bomb, but you cold put the bomb on a piston and hide it between some wedges so it is protected from shooting or unwanted impacts

[@eveypea]

Motorbike jousting with dynamite on a stick. It's been ages since I saw a good motorbike battle on your channel, Scrapman

[@JustARondomGuy]

Nice

[@thecrimsonsoldier6803]

human guided missiles vs cargo plane? the cargo plane has to reach it's destination to win.

[@thegamingalpaca549]

Would be awesome to do something the OG squad with Moonbo, Kan and Kosmo.

[@sixtenraskrosell9513]

Lets go new upload!

[@explodinggiraffe1130]

Can you do a human- guided bullet vs a car or something? I think that would be fun.

[@Sinful-Oni]

Really dislike repairing on the spot if the point of adding extra rules or saying oh thats was just a test because the video will be too short. Just make a rule where you need to go back to the spawn point makes more sense to me that way.

[@Blackbirdtree1]

yeah but then it would take 10 minutes for the tank to lose

[@Sinful-Oni]

@@Blackbirdtree1 40 minutes of build for 5 sec of mini game

[@tobyule]

Cool

[@dedz7]

One of you should make a really good player guided missile, then the challenge is to make a car to avoid the two people trying to blow you up

[@lochiegriffiths4712]

Two wheel tank was amazing/hilarious

[@KodeBlue0]

What you could do is human guided missiles against an anti air vehicle. Or a glider vehicle. Or even use really low gravity. So the missiles would need to be pretty accurate. Every time you die just respawn on the big hill

[@EthanSpencer-bp8vg]

I thought of an interesting challenge. What about a human guided torpedo versus a low flying airplane with an altitude sensor preventing it from going higher. So, the torpedoes need to jump out of the water to hit the airplane.

[@user-pv5qn5ei7x]

You should do human guided missile without the dynamite

[@megapoopy69420]

Day 1 of asking scrapman to build a mini carrier with mini fighter planes

[@Qpdocnrn]

I feel like for these challenges the smaller vehicles need to respawn from a set spawn point

[@SlimeMold1]

Yzuei uploaded this video earlier than you but its nice to watch videos from differrent perspectives

[@TheElumSlender]

You can do another orbital video but instead of being on land u are on a boat. No reusing the same orbital cannon though, so instead of building a boat it would be an orbital cannon. One premade OP boat

[@LoPhatKao]

that one piece at 9:55 🤣
