Yeah, you add like a platform or something that is able to lift it up a bit more, and keep it stable, so it doesn't lean when you drive off (which is probably what caused it to glitch in the first place)

When the elevator comes up and starts slowing down, you can make some kind of hooks that grab some parts on the elevator that are shaped so they can be grabbed by a robotic hand. When the elevator is grabbed, you can make a second button that pulls the elevator up with those robotic hands. I hope you like the idea. I love your videos!
@calebheinis9657 жыл бұрын
There should be a platform underneath the elevator that deploys after the elevator fully retracts to A) Keep the platform stable when vehicles drive off it, and B) to bring it to a somewhat more level height with vehicles that way it down. It doesn't even have to be a proper platform, just a little rim to do so.

2 adjustements you can make : control every séries of 10 pistons sequentially, it might reduce the speed of the elevator and the glitchy things that are happening. I also noticed that the offset when it's contracted is happening on the piston at the top, welding a second piston with it might help with the strengh !

Another cool addition you can add to your base is a Landing Pad extending off center at the top of base to land your aircrafts. As for the elevator, to stabilize the heavy weight add some thrusters along with pistons on 4 corners instead of 2 sides like you had. It can add the strength you need to have consistent and stabilized lift. =D

@arandombingewatcher57257 жыл бұрын
Hey Scrap Maen, I watched your video and I've got an idea: what if, instead of doing a piston elevator, you do a car lifter with thrusters that's not attached to ANY platform that you control? I know it's not exactly what you're aiming for, but there are some added bonuses to having a ferry-ship: 1. you could take it anywhere 2. except for thrusters, there wouldn't be any problems- you might could even build it off camera! The idea is simple: have a small platform, thrusters on bottom, seat to the side, have a railing on the edges, and have a part of the railing that opens and closes. Your Regards, A Random Binge Watcher

I also had the same issue on my constructing 14 story elevator Piston elevator, and a lift didn't work, but it acted that the pistons were crazy shaking, and accidentally deleted a block that conects the frame to the elevator, and half of the elevator got unwired. It was still lagging still, but somehow it stopped lagging. That's my story. So you're not the only one with this issue.

@anagramgamaran7447 жыл бұрын
Put the pistons on the ground instead (maybe with a ramp up to the platform depending on where you place the pistons). Not only will it be more stable and less laggy that way (since they can't be over-extended that way), but you can then make the garage multi-level using some logic gates to adjust which pistons activate when. Also, halve the piston speed if possible (I can't remember if you already set the speed to minimum), and maybe add an actual elevator shaft to secure it in place. A controller-based locking system (using a pair of wooden beams that forces the elevator platform upwards) could compensate for the weight issues. To make the elevator shaft steampunk treehouse-y, cover it in brown pipes that branch off like actual tree branches. Also, octopus tentacles have their own nervous systems, so they'll move around on their own if you sever them.
@FerrowTheFox7 жыл бұрын
I'd use the modded pistons by Durf that can expand a lot longer (256 afaik) so you don't need to stack 30 pistons. They`re a lot stronger, too! Camodo used them on his underwater base on all four corners of the elevator. Also, when going steampunk, add like a balloon to the top of the base and maybe some props to make it look like an airship! You could have the water flowing from the airship house then. That'd be awesome! :D
@joshuawinslow92157 жыл бұрын
You could use some sort of steampunk zeppelin or balloon to make it look like your base is attached/hanging from it and you could use the "guide wires or ropes" to make it look like the entire structure is tethered to the ground. I could be a simpler solution and would fit the over all steampunk theme.

Hi ScrapMan, you may be able to manage to go for your elevator idea by assisting the pistons with a set of thrusters under the plateform. The whole platform would be a little more thick (to hide the thruster eventualy), but it could maybe use the pistons to guide the thrusters up to the base. I have a base with a pretty big elevator made with thrusters and guided in a tower. This system could compensate the pistons "weakness".

surround the elevator fully in glass. This should stop it from moving around. Then use a bearing mechanism which pushes the elevator up to floor level. Ie. Bars on bearings attached to the floor in a way that it will rotate the bars in a wheel rotation direction. Then get these bars to rotate toward the docked elevator & push it up when they become flush to the ground. I don't know if this makes sense so if anyone reading this understands can they describe it better?

Wouldn't it be working just fine if you gave the spot where all the pistons contracts into some breathing room? Since the pistons got stuck along the bottom section of the wall right next to where most of the pistons went most likely due to slight uneven weight distribution on the elevator platform itself. By having maybe 2 blocks of wiggle space that should make it able to lift most things even if they are not exactly in the middle of it.
