Steam Engine Simulator is Almost Done (for real this time)

[@AngeTheGreat]

I know this video is a bit different from my usual content, but video production was taking quite a lot of time away from development and I had to make some compromises. Let me know what you guys think of this format in the comments and also feel free to suggest specific things you'd like me to cover in my next Boring Development Update. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the vid Ange it made my day

[@nono-cp7pc]

Thanks for the free 30 days

[@cagliostro6931]

loved this new video, even with this unscripted format the video still felt concise and high quality. definitely was worth the watch.

[@hybridstoatdragon]

Thank you. Ive been looking forward to it

[@AfonsodelCB]

would love a higher production quality video every couple of months or even half a year, but am as interested in this video as I was in the others

[@svgPhoenix]

Take all the time you need man. Not like I don't have other games to play while I wait

[@expired_esoup]

Hi. Tester here. I can confirm that we are all actually idiots who have not developed any neurons beyond the brain stem. Ange has us working 24/7 in his basement to test his game please send help

[@Strikker1918BAR]

Its cold in here...

[@DDev247]

He hasn't fed us in 3 days already 😭

[@Stork2204]

Can confirm

[@FutureCloudX]

He beats us for sleeping at night as well. Been sleepless for a week already 😢😢

[@verticalflyingb737]

No worries fellas, I've shared the news on Facebook. Lots of thoughts, love, hugs and prayers from Facebook moms will be coming your way shortly ❤️

[@melonenstrauch1306]

Holy shit that I5 demo at the end sounds amazing!

[@MMKnight_1]

yeah. Sounds like a rally car!

[@maxine_q]

@@MMKnight_1 Now it only needs a turbo.

[@ValentineC137]

Incredible, we got VTEC for steam engines before GTA6

[@Spudstered]

*PRR poppit valve gear gets louder* also should add: this is literally how all valve gear works lol, any kind that you could see and can reverse direction can do this, even basic af walschearts

[@MMKnight_1]

This change in format is absolutely fine! It isn't that much different than before, only a little longer. Still great explanations

[@ModernAtomX]

A lot of crank cases are in a vacuum to increase the efficiency of the downstroke, so if you have any more issues with the steam blowby particle effect, you could add a crankcase vacuum system, and decrease the efficiency of the engine when the seals go bad.

[@IronHexacyanoferrate]

The sediment color is so addictive.

[@RiedlerMusics]

hmm with the added particle effects I feel like it's becoming more and more weird that the inside of the boiler is visually steamless. Could be nice if you added a white translucent overlay for parts of the engine that have steam

[@justdave2002]

I second this

[@AfraiCat]

Ange. I have just one request, nothing too crazy. Could you reply with a simple 'Vroom Vroom'?

[@AngeTheGreat]

Vroom Vroom

im not Ange but Vroom Vroom

[@hoodiekid8439]

the creator has spoken

[@NamacilHDx]

honestly you are a good talker i really liked this update even if it might felt a little weird or lacking in your eyes... i understand that there are way more minor things that werent worth showing but that was fine and im soo looking forward to the whole game ... also THAT FUCKING i5 ENGINE HOLY MOLY

[@fillman86]

ah I guess lots of back end work isn't very flashy for videos, making it hard to make the videos. Still it looks exciting

[@AngeTheGreat]

@@fillman86 yep, it's suboptimal but there's not much I can do about it

[@danksagrabowski2438]

Looking good, thanks for the update! Can't wait to finally play it :)

[@raving_1074]

Steam engine simulator hype!

[@Bassalicious]

Eyy, the fluid dynamics code wizard is back! Awesome

[@rixas20]

22:20 love how its starting to sound like a sewing machine lol

[@DDev247]

vroom vroom (or i guess chugga chugga)

[@DimitriMP]

I listen to all my pioneers, often when they're not even aware of it. So due to popular demand I have added a motivational message : choo choo Mother******!

[@thestealthtarget]

I love the work! I would like to see perhaps PID controllers on the controllable parameters (lets say water inlet with a feedback on tank level), let them set any feedback point (i.e. you could make the water fill related to engine speed, if you really wanted too) and set parameters on the PID to get better control, could be an interesting add. Also I would love a video on PID controllers/how they work/how to implement them.

[@FemLolStudio]

Cool, the steam engine is really good, and also the little engine simulation too, really sounds like a real engine!

[@RobertGracie]

Glad to hear its almost done Ange :D cant wait for the full release!

[@Beauregard42]

Great job! This is an amazing project! Keep up the good work; Good luck and Godspeed.

[@slakkie_]

My favorite fluid master!

[@SharkyDotDash]

The mention about your PC not being top of the line is I feel a good thing, as theres a lot of cases of people developing on top of the line specs resulting in their games running poorly for the vast majority of players who don't happen to own a super computer.

[@ezanchi5422]

I wanna know the interesting thing why those parts were at the wrong places, pls :D

[@fullcircle6107]

Are you planning on adding force induction? Like turbochargers and turbos?

[@Elysium137]

The video was good, you are correct when you say you should spend less time on videos. Game is looking amazing, can't wait!

[@nekrugderzweite8298]

Yes a new video, its so great seeing the progress

[@justdave2002]

I honestly think this format of video is great as well

[@slendi9623]

bon appetit boys

[@Raebersquad]

At this point i would even be willing to pay like 15 euros

[@gusswe12]

This format works great!

[@bingusbongus9807]

you would never bore me with random details!!! i want to know why the bits were in the wrong place!!

[@verticalflyingb737]

Legends has it that every time AngeTheGreat uploads, any and all digital software development work stops for a whole day.

live commentary style works!

ill drop 100h playtime on this when it drops

WOOOOOO UPDATES ON THE DLC

[@willsbrewery3518]

It's kinda like VTEC for steam engines 😂. That's a genius line 👌

[@Strikker1918BAR]

Mmmm finally the saga is reaching the end Edit: RV? Aint no way we got waltuh in SES

[@kilonenenumber1]

Hey developer, really great update to game progress but i wonder what will happen to the little easter egg when you press your logo a lot of times. Will it get delated? Will it be updated too? Or will it just stay the same?

[@maix52]

I was wondering if you have a natuve linux build or it only runs through proton. If it is running through proton, what is the roadblock to a native build other than the lack of experience/testing done for linux ? Are you using windows specific features that would be a road block (like being tightly coupled to DirectX)

[@RiedlerMusics]

note: being tightly coupled to DirectX wouldn't even be a big roadblock, considering libdxvk exists

[@barchuk422]

the topic is really interesting but you sound so defeated i feel bad for taking intrest. that's a great video idea, keep em coming, please with more confidence.

At the end he said that he's really okay!

Steam engine simulator supports steam deck on steam!

[@krolon9786]

I need to know. What happens during a moneyshift in the engine simulator? Does the sim handle it or does it meet it's real life counterpart type of event?

[@o0ooo0]

Steam engine < Internal combustion engine

[@catwithlonghair1850]

no way

[@AutoAnomoly]

Is the pause menu made in Imgui?

[@blueengineer7019]

Question: will the devil mode stay in the DLC?

[@jwalster9412]

Not exactly relevant to this video, but the beamng and automation devs are 100% going to be happy when engine sim is out

[@aleksjenner677]

When is it getting released on mac?

[@expired_esoup]

When Mac stops being terrible.

[@darojatsatriaagungwijaya9670]

Will you release android version? (Just asking)

[@AngeTheGreat]

Probably not as I'll be moving on to Engine Simulator as soon as this is released

[@abdullahajeebi]

Also because mobile systems are not as powerful as desktop systems. ​@@AngeTheGreat

How much is it going to cost?

👍

[@Lagittaja]

Regarding the unscripted nature of this video and the time it takes to produce KZbin videos. In my opinion you should try this style for a while if it means you can spend more time developing. Perhaps sprinkling in scripted stuff every now and then.

[@puppergump4117]

huh

[@Kilgorio]

шош

[@ezyuunn]

you should make game ending, unrepairable engine damage happen randomly for no reason just to annoy players

[@karyjas1]

Wonder if you could teach AI model to replicate the engine sounds accurately and cheaply and then insert that into a racing game

Ange i edge to your videos ❤
