I Built a Reversible Boat That Can Drive Upside Down! [Scrap Farer Mod]

[@Hadeks_Marow]

Couple of notes, alot actually: - Durability = block health. Every time you hit something, you are damaging durability (like haybots in survival). It is NEVEER worth tanking damage that can be avoided. - Please stop thinking in only 2-dimensions. Weight distribution is all about how far above the waterline you build vs how far bellow the waterline you build. Height is SOOOO important in this challenge. - Doughnuts take up 4 block spaces. 1 doughnut can be replaced by 4 blocks with a seat on top, making doughnuts never worth. Not for control, not for buoyancy, and definitely not for durability. - If water damages blocks, then just pillar up. Lets assume the water in the final area is what is damaging the blocks, that means you just gotta build a pole going straight up and create a second story raft. if that doesn't work, make a third story and so on and so forth. - Your agility build was fine. Just replace the doughnut with four balance blocks and a seat. Add multiple stacks of them, don't rely on propellers at the end and just tank the acid water with multiple deployable stories of agile rafts.

[@baoxuezhang3300]

"Durability = block health." it really doesn't. The game calculates a random number and if it's above the durability value the block gets destroyed. The range of the random number changes based on what level you're on and the type of barrier (small rock at 0-2 vs big rock at 0-4) the spread is not linear, so small rock is more likely to hit at 1 durability, and big rock is more likely to hit at 2 durability, but it can still vary Source: the mod files. /Scripts/game/interactables/Obstacle.lua

[@mikehawk9824]

and actually i've played this mod and blocks touching water doesn't matter in the final level, neither does durability

[@TimEriksson-w2n]

You are misunderstanding durability a bit. Durability isn't a threshold of what kind of materials they can survive as you believe, but is how much health a block has. If the metal was hit by 50 pieces of wood it would break, but it can survive one hit easily. It is the same with the last section, the metal can survive the diamonds for one or two hits, but five hits break it. Therefore, any damage during the run is bad, even if you keep all your blocks.

I thought it was percentage based but I'm not really sure

[@TimEriksson-w2n]

@@disconneck1363 Yeah I think that was his reasoning, but after seeing that sometimes metal survives stuff and other times it doesn't, the only logical explanation is that they have some sort of health.

[@Grunk-ik9os]

It would be cool to get confirmation that they retain damage from the modder, because in Scrap mechanic it is normally chance based all or nothing per interaction.

[@Fungias]

You could make a metal boat so tall it can use wheels by rolling on the sea floor, this would remove the weight problem but will cost a lot of blocks

[@niceman_ak7940]

I think this build can win if you make a center “core” of balance (or higher durability) blocks to live through the acid at the end longer. Also, I think some of your metal breaks because it has an “hp pool” that gradually gets depleted

[@Jirodyne]

"I think some of your metal breaks because it has an “hp pool” that gradually gets depleted" Yeah, that seems to be the part he doesn't understand. The Durability is a total that goes down at it hits stuff. So Metal lets you crash through some stuff, but eventually the Durability will run out. So you need multiple layers of protection, not just the 1 he is using.

[@dinoeebastian]

@@Jirodyne As far as I've seen, that's not the case, the blocks don't have hp, the obstacles do, the higher the durability the higher the probability that the block won't break, with earlier obstacles having a lower probability of breaking the block.

[@t.c.sbunch-o-stuff5907]

@niceman_ak7940 the durability of blocks doesn't change the chance of dissolving at the end, I have a bunch of gold blocks in my build they have a durability of 10 and they dissappear just as quick as any other block.

[@lunar6634]

you could have put your propellers on 2 bearings hooked up to the same engine so they would turn twice as fast and i assume twice the thrust.

[@TheAruruu]

actually, i think it might result in 4x increase, because currently whenever he uses the propellers, he's only using 2 of them. it could be configured to use all 4 for every input instead.

[@pws3rd170]

​@@TheAruruuIf you do that, you still only get double but with more logic spaghetti

[@sambrown6426]

Scrapman, you can make your build much more stable by adding a bunch of heavy blocks down beneath the surface as ballast. You did this for your Trailmakers top 1% speedboats, you should probably consider doing it here, too

[@Jirodyne]

Also consider building up as well, so more condensed and smaller, but stronger as it has blocks protecting it in layers, like a Pyramid, or a straight up V shaped wall in front to tank everything.

[@niil047]

the problem with adding ballast is the weight, you need more boyancy, which leads to larger size, thus more stuff to protect, which means more metal, and more weight. the game isnt very well balanced overall with boyancy, the boyancy blocks need to be a bit more effective and are currently a bit too unfairly weak

[@EpsilonRosePersonal]

@@niil047 Assuming it works vaguely like real life buoyancy, you could also expand the flotation core vertically, rather than horizontally. More of your build would be underwater, but I don't think there's enough water physics for that to really matter. This would let you increase your buoyancy, while keeping the same footprint and, potentially, saving you on defensive blocks, depending on how deep you feel the need to defend.

[@arceyplayz]

What if you used propellers facing downwards providing thrust up? Would that be better buoyancy than actual buoyant blocks? Should try it out

[@t.c.sbunch-o-stuff5907]

The end zone dissolves everything regardless of durability, from my experience the dissolving seems to be percentage based, I've built large rafts and as you get bigger more blocks dissappear at the same time. If you watch my endgame video you can see that in action.

[@kilbymorgan8626]

Should just say small, focus on getting to it intact and then gun it with his propellers hoping Newton's first law takes effect in scrap mechanic.

[@baoxuezhang3300]

It seems you are correct. From the looks of it, there is a 1 in 1000 chance per block to destroy that block in the area each tick (which would explain why bigger platforms get destroyed more), not sure if it's per physics tick (changes based on lag) or fixed tick (60/s) though (source: reading the mod code)

[@clovercraft960]

I did watch the video and that helped me beat it

[@JazzyJake4]

Hey Scrapman, I have some ideas for the build at 16:46. 1) Move the aerogel up by half a block and then just add a second layer on the bottom. 2) Connect the metal with two more metal blocks to the front and back. Overall, you should be gaining buoyancy because you're adding 50% more defense but a 100% more buoyancy. In addition, you should also gain agility in the process.

[@grynte1]

or just use balance blocks at the same time because there's literally 0% reason no to

[@Blackbirdtree1]

how would that make it more agile

[@didymusii2919]

it wouldnt add agillity to the build since you're adding weight. and by doublind the blocks you make it more likely to tilt, if we want it to work like this he would have to put something heavy way down to lowerthe center of mass.

[@Lifaen-Vodhr]

Let's go, longer ScrapMan videos!

[@mrkillakarebear]

Maybe make a build that is intended to fall apart. Put level 1 blocks on the outside and level 9 block closer to your seat? This way weaker blocks clear the way on lower levels and stronger for the later levels.

[@didymusii2919]

and it would put to use every of his assets, but that mean larger build and less way to control the actual build. but he can probably affor to make a real boat at this point, with the engine behind i mean.

[@-user_redacted-]

​@didymusii2919 if he does it strategically he should shed a lot of size by the time he reaches the later lever, so he should gain agility over time.

[@didymusii2919]

@@-user_redacted- yes butif he fails to shed correctly he might be verry unbalanced i think but that's not a bad idea at all he just have to stabilize the raft.

[@GummieI]

The idea is intersting, but would probably be so heavy still with all the layers needed for it, that it would be near impossible to turn at the start, thus not able to shed the back layers, and creating a more and more backheavy build as he goes one

[@green_blaze_gaming2814]

You could use your agility raft to rack up as many coins as possible then make one of those ice breaker ships with a heavily armoured hull at the front. And the hull filled with buoyancy block and downward facing props. This idea will be tedious and will take a while but it has high chance of working😊

[@hectormidgley5641]

[@Pystro]

I have a feeling that the only way you can guarantee getting through the final section is to use bearings and pipes to build yourself a catapult that can launch your character across that lake. Or have something that outright flies; but I wouldn't think that the propellers provide thrust in the air.

[@ivanljujic4128]

Suspension glitches here would be really good. - suspension stabiliser -> no need to worry about tipping over. You can keep bouyancy blocks at the bottom, safe, while keeping strong and heavy blocks above water. - suspension steering -> simplifies controls and probably is stronger

[@limonlx7182]

Also could use a driver seat with that, to be able to control both propellers and suspension glitch using WASD. Another upside of that is you can have all propellers going the same way, and not have to dedicate half of them just for going backwards.

[@GummieI]

@@limonlx7182 There is no driver seats in this mod, only passenger seats of various kinds

Add more props, so instead of 1 propeller in each engine, you have like 3, for a total of 12 props

[@BruhGaming3096]

The reason you get kicked out when you hit stuff is that your raft tilts and you become submerged😊😊😊

[@foamyesque]

Buoyancy and a metal belt at the intended water line, and then a keel -- a pole of metal blocks or similar sticking down to keep the machine upright. Use the balance blocks as a secondary layer under the waterline to guard the props/engines/etc. Put the seat up on a pole to keep it out of the water for the end. Use metal or glitter to attach the functional components to each other.

[@Fareeq25]

It's been on my mind for a long time, I think you can use double bearings for the propeller so that you can double your agility of your boat with the same quantity of the propeller.

[@deadlykitten4471]

You can add a roof made of lightweight blocks, to protect from the overhead rain

add catapult on top to launch a smaller boat to ze end thats why theres the crane wheel(or make a climber/walker to walk over the walls to the end stupid i know)

[@Tom89194]

One of the keys to a tank build is vertical layers, a heavy keel(can be cheap blocks since they rarely get hit) below the water to help keep you upright will allow you to stack flotation blocks under the water level but keep from flipping over. Then you just need a little bit of control to steer an ablative bow into obstacles. From the way the final section seems to behave you want a lot of blocks that can be stood upon to make it to the island. The smaller your profile the less damage you will take, so making a stable craft that uses verticality is key.

[@ls_i8114]

Crazy idea here - build a fully metal giraffe like car, something that rides on the bottom of the river and keeps you high up above

[@DawsonDDestroyer]

Add a Keel like an actual boat to avoid the flipping while maintaining buoyancy! Also I believe the balance blocks aren't neutral buoyancy they're just slightly positive, boats would normally be made of wood because the mix of durability and buoyancy. So the Balance Blocks aren't as durable as the durability blocks, or as buoyant as the buoyancy blocks, but they're okay at both. Just test a boat made only from the Blance Blocks to check! Maybe you could built it more boat like too instead of a giant platform. Also with the extra blocks you spawn at the start you could make small "crafts" so they're a balance between durability and buoyancy. Maybe a low level durability block attached to all faces of the Ice or Aerogel blocks!

42:03 Traumaticed

[@puipuixproduction]

Maybe instead of going wide, you can go tall. Engine deep with some weight block (good weight/buoyancy, ignore durability) to keep the center of mass low. Have a middle section of buoyant block and a good weight/durability for the top, which should be out of the water with the seat. At the water level add iron block to protect. As the thing is tall and not wide, only a few iron block should be enough to protect the surface of the water which is the only dangerous area

[@ConnerFerrara]

i just wanted to say that i really enjoy your videos and thank you for all the fun i have watching them

[@Peter_Gamerrr]

you should add 4 engines and 4 bearings. So that every propeller can move both backwards and forward, increasing agility and speed. To save money you could even use your old scrap engines as it would still be balanced.

[@ILikeCheees]

Yay more of this Under 10 mins

[@CHECKERCE]

i think maybe just making your raft bigger will be better. because due to the square-cube law (or in this case the 2D equivalent because you basically build a circle) you will have a better buoyancy to wheight ratio. this is because all your heavy blocks are on the outside while your floatation blocks are in the center. Now making your raft bigger for example by 2x it increases the circumference by a factor of 2 but the area increases by a factor of 2² so 4x meaning you will have more floatation blocks in relation to your heavy blocks. and to keep your agility i would recommend just getting more propellers until you are fast enough

[@JordanGrose]

Durability doesn’t make something invincible to the lower tiers, it just means it can take a lot more damage before being destroyed (each obstacle does a certain amount of damage before being destroyed).

two concepts that popped up in my mind are 1: rather than having a lot of metal blocks only have 2 but make it possible for you to turn them around you. That way you can be a lot lighter and smaller again. (It probably wont help in the last part though) 2: Make a 3d cage around yourself. of 2 or 3 layers of aerogel and then a metal layer around that. this way you are also protected from things spawning on top of you which seems to be the weak point of a tank built and if the last part randomly destroys blocks 1 or two at a time which might be the case, having a lot of blocks will increase the chances of survival there (But it will take a lot of blocks XD).

[@Foxskulls428]

Underneath your main seat, put a stack of seats on top of each other on a pyramid of your leftover buoyancy blocks and balance blocks, make a keel out of a long line of balance blocks and one block of metal going down under the water, this will keep you upright, keep 2 other metal blocks INSIDE the boat, at center mass one at water level and one a few blocks under the seat in the pyramid rim with metal blocks to protect edges and balance buoyancy. With this build you should be able to just sit in your seat at the end and wait, because as your sides and keel disintegrate it will stay weighted correctly.

[@marcoscaio4133]

Even though it's not possible, but do you think the Scrapman series could come back like: "In search of the Automatic Base" or something like that?

[@Jack_Sniper21]

I have an idea. Why not do a kot of coin grinding to build like a three layer platform. Biggest on bottom, medium in the middle, and small on top. The bottom as all your motors and propellers with the highest buoyancy possible with the most durability you can, then around the outside all metal. Then the center part has all the logic stuff with the seat, and the balanced blocks mixed with bouyant blocks to let if float better by the end as you slowly lose blocks. Then the smaller top is the cover to protect the middle layer so it has more durable blocks with the least weight possible.

[@brunnogadelha2375]

make a prism. build something in a cube shape, where one of the corners is heavier than the others, thus maintaining balance. make a cockpit like this, a float box, where you can control it too. It will require a lot of coins, but it will be cool and I believe you will be able to finish the route

[@Erjo9107]

Buy the small metal pipes, make a hanging weight underneath your seat. It will make you harder to flip but you'll need to offset the weight. Assuming the weight is far down, you can add enough boyancy underneath the current top blocks without increasing width or length. Height is more useful than what you currently show.

[@saadzamil8626]

Sky mechanic continue please

[@RecycleBin26]

I think you still need to do this (which I mentioned early into the series): Add a keel to keep you flat. Use some buoyant blocks to build down and then use heavy blocks as the keel's weight. This would help a lot when you get knocked askew but the keel helps rebalance your craft.

[@asmitht1u]

Metal keel to act as ballast. The leverage decreases weigh needed to stay stable. Gel for floatation. Glitter for as much as possible. Gel can make canopy for drop section. Secure seat that doesn't weigh much. Durability is health not armor

[@rjgraylight]

1. Durability = health, not armour. Every time you hit anything, you're reducing the health of that block. So the more things you hit early on, the less durability/health it has later on. - You can't see the health-bar for each individual block or how much damage each item deals to individual blocks, but it is there, hidden from view. 2. Bouyancy determines how many blocks per second the block will float. 3. What's slowing you down is your craft's weight, not it's size. You can add 100 blocks with 1 weight and it'll be as difficult to move as 10 blocks with 10 weight. 4. Weight determines how many blocks per second the block will sink. - If a block has 5 bouyancy and 5 weight, then the block will float 5 blocks per second and sink 5 blocks per second. This block will stay at whatever height it starts at or moves to as it will float and sink at 0 blocks per second. This is the Balance category. - If a block has 1 bouyancy and 10 weight, then the block will float 1 block per second and sink 10 blocks per second. This block will sink 9 blocks per second by itself. This is the Defense category. - If a block has 10 bouyancy and 1 weight, then the block will float 10 blocks per second and sink 1 block per second. This block will float 9 blocks per second by itself. This is the Float category. 5. Generally speaking for each level's items, 1 float block will counteract the weight of 1 defense block. 6. You seem to be focusing on only 2 dimensions of building (Left-Right and Front-Back), when you need to focus on building in 5 dimentions (Top-Bottom, Left-Right, Front-Back, and Opposing Corners). 7. So long as the craft is symmetrically balanced with blocks on equal and opposite sides, you won't be experiencing any natural rotation, flipping, or similar. 8. There are some obstacles, namely the fish, that are 1 block wide. The safest bet is to place blocks at 1/2 block intervals to avoid taking any damage to the core of your craft. 9. It is recommended to have your craft be a minimum of 3 blocks, and an odd number of blocks tall. Ideally, you'd make it roughly spherical for the optimal design.

I don't understand why people keep thinking otherwise, but only obstacles have health, blocks do not blocks get destroyed based on their durability level and a random number generated when they get hit source: mod code, download it yourself if you want to see

That is possible cause square area when square is scaled grows faster than perimeter. Also you can build multiple-layer contraptions, they will be much stronger.

If you place the buoyancy farther from the center on the bottom it would balance better. Also you don't have to build it flat like a piece of paper. Make it taller

7:31 one thing, *BATHTUB SEAT!* P.s. remember that the bathtub seat has alot of durability?

[@toddabbott781]

Do your original build at the start of the video, but with the new seat. Then just put 4 steel in the front and 4 in the back. Then make it two layers thick with glittering blocks under the aerogel and the steel. You need 16 of them. This would still be smaller than the build you used at the end and would likely float higher. You might also go faster too. Can you double up the propellers or double the bearings for each propeller to get more speed? Maybe put some snow blocks on top of you ring to help in the end area.

[@getout732]

You need to make a catapult that will launch your seat to the finish, or a system to dump all the ballast in the form of metal and accelerate strongly, maybe add 2 engines to move faster forward, good luck

[@rjgraylight]

Don't forget to use the "destroy build" option at the computers for when the craft glitches out or when you notice blocks duplicating themselves.

[@theyeetus1428]

Maybe you could use your agility build to carry a small glitter block platform to the acid, and then ride that to the end?

[@anteshell]

32:08 That DOES make sense. When you turn the raft 180 degrees, of course the controls are then flipped. If the seats point the same direction, then the left and right are flipped but forwards and backwards normal. If the seats point towards the opposite directions, then W and S is flipped but A and D not. Simply flip your button connections on the other seat to fix it.

[@kaigmerritt-zp8qx]

If you try this again, you should try agility again, but now that you have a seat, you should be able to make it smaller than the donut, and it might be easier

your upload times are perfect, im home from school in the same hour that you upload.

[@paucc]

Scrapman, you can add more blocks while standing on the build, can't you? It would be helpful to add a lot of blocks after the last section to allow more disintegration.

[@blueflame_sm]

Gyroscopic stabilization ftw! Just build a Beyblade!

[@jjacobs321]

You should add double bearings or more to get extra speed out of the props

[@KittenKatja]

I believe in your mind, these metal blocks don't possess health, and therefore can't wrap your head around as to why they broke after getting hit 20 times.

I believe Axolot said each chapter will be based on different types of traversal. So chapter 2 is going to be underground, and then a different chapter will be water, and then a different chapter will be air, etc
