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.

Basically what happened when everything got pixelated: When you go really far from spawn in a game, it uses floating point numbers which get less accurate the bigger they are. Going put really far makes the graphics whack out because it uses your whacky coordinates to draw things on screen. This phenomenon happens in other games as well, like roblox.

[@ltcgamesdivision1815]

Just build one. Im really noob at the game, barely played the first campaing and have a couple hours. But its pretty interesting, if you have the game look for this and tell me what you think: "Advanced Spacefighter - Red Model"

[@Hadeks_Marow]

Ok, I'm going to explain "the glitch": First, it's not a glitch, it's a particle emitter. Depending on update frequency, it will output an "end point", the particle will be half way between the previous end point with the new endpoint. It's length is the distance between the 2 end points. This is how it draws a line. What is happening is it creates one endpoint before it gets teleported (previous endpoint) and it creates the next one after it gets teleported. It then creates a single particle the size of the entire map because that's the distance between endpoints. The line doesn't stop just because it gets teleported. That's not how particle emitters work. The devs would have to manually add in that feature just to prevent it.

[@jonburklund8833]

While your description of the issue is likely correct, the dev's still didn't account for all pieces of the code that would be affected by the map warping feature. It's obvious from an end user perspective that the rainbow trail shouldn't span the entirety of the map when the emitter didn't actually traverse the entire map. That's definitely a bug/glitch.

[@GummieI]

@@jonburklund8833I might it probably more correct to call it an oversight than a bug/glitch, as it absolutely is working as intended, the devs just forgot to take into account some edge cases, and how crazy some players can be. So it should absolutely be fixed if possible

[@Hadeks_Marow]

@@jonburklund8833 Doesn't matter. From a programming perspective, all systems are working as they are supposed to. It's not a bug, it's an oversight. A "bug" would be if the solution WASN'T to add an ADDITIONAL feature to the particle system. It's no different than how it's not a graphical bug that a bathroom mirror doesn't have the player models reflection in it. It wasn't designed to do that. To design it to do that is an "additional" design element.

So like a rocket from the launch pad ) (Except irl rockets like follow a curved trajectory on the takeoff because of turning of the Earth and any necessary corrections)

[@robinthebank846]

19:40 I think you glitched out of the map somehow, that could explain why you teleported after spawning your creation.

[@phoenixdonner8553]

the player character must not warp on its own so there is a possibility that he was so far out that floating point precision error was destroying the calculations in build mode snapping the vertices to a strange grid and making it behave oddly.

[@Draxtini]

​@@phoenixdonner8553definitely looks like it!

[@jacksonstarky8288]

I wasn't expecting Trailmakers to implement the curvature of spacetime. Interesting.

[@dragojess]

At the end there you most likely experienced position precision issues because you were so far out. Computers have a limit to how many digits they can have in a number, and if you go far enough away stuff like that happens where objects clip into each other

[@w.dgaming2156]

kind of, he experienced a floating point precision error and that

[@Phlarx]

16:09 As Scrap figured out, the reason he teleported twice is because the map is toroidal. Imagine a piece of paper where once you leave the top, you appear at the bottom. Same for left and right. If you move at an angle, you will hit the top/bottom border every once in a while, and the left/right border every once in a while. But sometimes, you'll get close to the corner of the paper and hit both borders in quick succession. (If you hit the _exact_ corner, you'd cross both at the same time!) A toroidal universe is easy to make in a game engine, but there are also other shapes such as spherical (which has no corners). The weirdness at 19:36 is probably because the teleport checks only apply to vehicles (because the dev's didn't expect someone to walk to the edge of the universe), so the character ended up "beyond" the universe, resulting in floating point error as other comments have stated. As soon as he left build mode, he was in a vehicle, so the teleport check ran, and he was teleported back "inside" the universe immediately.

The bugginess you were seeing in build mode there is what happens when you increase speed and distance from what would be considered as the 0,0,0 of space, the faster and further you go is how much distortion is applied to not just objects but yourself eventually.

[@slidingontheice]

YES

[@harleyhart1497]

Battle idea: a Battlebots inspired fight. Only limitations are a 250kg weight limit for a robot with wheels or 500kg for a walking bot, max speed for weapons is 250kph, and max weapon weight is 70kg. Also, melee weapons only (e.g. vertical/horizontal flippers, lifters, flippers, etc) and NO explosives or EMP. No block or powercore limit. You can operate it with either a separate seat or an internal seat. The aim is to either fully destroy or immobolise you're opponent, which means no controlled movement. Controlled movement includes moving in a linear motion only or just spinning in place.

[@BeefIngot]

I think a lot of what is being seen here is because dealing with floats that get float to max precision calculations start getting less and less accurate and all sorts of glitches happen. The ways to deal with it usually involve making the word oriented around the player, but even that has limits. So basically it's impossible to solve without just more beefy hardware or just lowering overall precision significantly which has effects too.

Aw thanks for the editors note! That's so cool to have the comparisons!

I loved the Nyoooooom at 5:41 very fitting. I wonder if you could go straight up and down, instead of side to side. If you used an in structural seat, and can you still die if you run into a planet/astroid ? Could you make a perfectly symmetrical craft by using the mirror tool symmetry thing?

Seeing you NARROWLY miss the ship gave me a sense of vertigo I think this is one of your most entertaining videos

[@theodoric4270]

The staircase is a result of hitting the edge of the map at an angle. If you are pointed slightly in the Myco Terra direction, your flight path will always slope in that direction, but when you teleport, you always teleport in a straight line, square with the edge of the map. If you want to have the vehicle come back at hit you exactly, not only does it have to fly in a perfectly straight line, but it also has to hit the edge of the map at a perfect right angle.

19:37 and thats what you call the 'floating point', as people call it. I believe its what happens when things are super far away from where the game is supposed to be played, and it basically just breaks

[@Damian-cilr1]

Its floating point errors not the floating point,simplified,computers are bad at numbers,if you type 0.1+0.2 into a simple floating point calculator it will come out with 0.300000...04 and as the numbers gets larger,the more errors it causes

[@HalfWolf2]

Hey scrap I really appreciate y'all doing the idea I had for multiplayer, it turned out awesome and super goofy, and I loved your ship design, reminds me of the peeper from subnautica if it swam backwards, I actually had another goofy idea, remember your "nonmoving rocket" project?, what do you think would happen if you fired a rocket or cannon shot while travelling at the same speed backwards in space, ie. Zero g, would the cannon or rocket just float like a mine or would it blow up after a while or would it bug out and detonate instantly?

[@TightieWhite]

Yes scrapman, you can create a sonic boom when you pass through an atmosphere and it slows you down drastically when you do it. 10:26

[@TightieWhite]

I only know because I was testing the exact same thing you’re doing in this video. 😂

[@homevids]

You're very conservative with adding engines. I added 240 large engines and things were even stranger. Had a large particle effect and warp lines even though I had no rainbow maker. I managed to hit a large asteroid at full speed and there was no damage but it did put me in a crazy spiral. Now I want to know if you can move asteroids to another location.

[@TheKingreiko]

19:50 that is probably floating point error. or atleast it looks extremely similair. It happens when you are far away from 0,0,0 xyz (centre) in the world, basically floats are numbers with decimal places and it starts to lose those finer decimal numbers causing 3D objects to break as all the vertex's stored positions get messed up.

Did you know that when you travel at a speed of 28,000kph/17,500mph, you are going at a similar speed to the satellites orbiting around the Earth? Although the speed of orbit varies, most satellites travel between 14,000mph to 18,0000mph. This is why it is crucial to precisely calculate space debris and satellite tracking, as every new satellite launch increases the risk of danger in space.

[@DarkzoneDiamond]

Fun fact, the game slowly deteriorates and when you go rlly fast it accelerates the deterioration. This then leads to the weird visual glitches and other glitches, it also alters how certain glitches work, for instance the hinge drive becomes less stable and consistent. Sound glitches are also possible through a similar method where you blast sounds repeatedly, this will eventually start to permanently break the sound in a server or single player

[@porger]

You do create a sonic boom if you re-enter the atmosphere, you also get whiplash from turning 180 degrees instantly

[@Jeezne]

"speedometer doesn't know what to do" got my dying 💀🤣

[@nathanwalker9425]

Someone else has probably already pointed this out, but the artifacts that happen at around 19:45 resemble floating point errors. That kind of stuff usually happens in games when you're so far away from the world origin that the points on the 3D model simply don't have enough precision to display at the right location. I'm not sure why this would be happening in build mode, but perhaps going into build mode somehow bypassed the world border and you shot way past it? Or maybe there's just some strangeness with how Trailmakers renders stuff in motion. Interesting regardless.

[@nicolasjoly6948]

The speedometer is perfectly fine like it is. The speed "glitch" is actually "normal". The speed is calculate base on distance between two "tick" (not computer tick, but a certain amount of frame or something like this) and it's doing a calculation. This is why, when you get to the other side, for a moment, it showing 22k kmh. When you start going fast, the game time tend to lag giving inconsistant movement (will do n-x mouvement isntead of n, than next time it will be n+x). At this point, speedometer will go crazy. The other thing that can affect this, is the quantity of movement. Let slow down stuff. Let say that the game update your vehicule position every 2 secondes and calculate speed every 5 secondes. Do your table of time: fist 5 secondes, the vehicule advance twice. Next 5 sec, 3 times, next, twice again and so one. At low speed, the speedometer will be stable because of the rounding. Faster you gonna go, much crazy the speedometer will go.

[@augustinehuizing6683]

19:51 What you're seeing here is most likely a floating point rendering glitch, it happens in most game engines when you go far away from the map origin, most likely you glitched past the teleports on each side of the map and got to a point where the rendering system can't render right. This same glitched also is probably what caused the blueprint system to break.

[@ageroulbi2785]

The sonic boom while entering into an atmosphere works (did it accidentaly lol) but i would like to see one in Your vids 😄

[@anteshell]

15:31 Scrapman, you can go either up or down below all the asteroids and planet. The map continues long in both directions leaving a lot of completely empty space in there. Then just use the pointy gyros to level yourself and you're golden.

[@-Hangry]

The whum sound was so cool, its like its going through like a jump from starwars

[@DefinitelyNotDee1]

the question you had at 10:30, I had casually proven it while I was messing around, Reached approx 10.5 thousand kph and aimed to collide with a planet, and as I broke atmosphere all the drag was added and my vehicle flipped put of control as I got the boom cone, In short; If you go faster than the speed of sound and enter atmosphere, you do get a boom cone.

From what I'm seeing from the warping, the speedometer is trying to measure the distance the vehicle traveled within a game tick and use that to calculate the speed. I don't know how exactly Trailmakers handles physics, but I would assume that it keeps track of objects' "actual" velocities in order to move them. Therefore it should be relatively simple for the devs (or modders) to calculate the speed of the vehicle directly for the speedometer instead of trying to "measure" it, which would greatly reduce the inconsistencies in the speedometer. The formula to calculate the "true" speed would be be (I believe) [√(SPEED_X)^2+(SPEED_Y)^2+(SPEED_Z)^2)]. (This equation may change depending on exactly how the variables are used: for example some games use the "Y" axis as the vertical axis, while my equation assumes Trailmakers uses the "Z" axis as some other games do.) Honestly I'm not sure why the devs didn't calculate speed this way in the first place. Not that I'm trying to criticize them, but I'm just surprised. Also keep in mind I could be completely wrong about this. But if I am right, any modders who want to make a very simple "better speedometer" mod could use this as a starting point, and tune it as needed. Unfortunately I do not have experience modding or actually have the game Trailmakers myself so I can not test it out.
