We Hooked Stuff Into the Encryptors to See What Happens! (Scrap Mechanic Co-op Survival Ep.31)

Hey everyone back with more Scrap Mechanic Survival! Today Kosmo and I are going to listen to the comments.... again..... We got so many messages saying we did everything wrong in the last episode and the encryptors actually do work so we've decided to head back to the warehouse and try connecting all sorts of different items to the encryptor to see what happens! ‪@darealkosmo‬

Well actually kaN, you need to create a logic loop with timers inbetween them set at exactly 177ms and have them each trigger separate mounted spudguns while the spud container has exactly 12 spuds left at 13:37 on the local map time while doing a 360 crouch hammer hit onto both encryptors simultaneously. That triggers the super secret mission in the logbook that, if and only if you make it no more and no less than 3 chunks away by 13:42, you will be allowed to hook the encryptors into eachother. This in turns unlocks the ability to take a second pair of encryptors out of a warehouse without using explosives (the walls will be open.) and create an encryptor loop with the first pair. (Make sure to go orange into blue into orange into blue, in a counter-clockwise fashion). BUT YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE THE CHUNK in which you connected the first two encryptors. If you do all this, you get kicked out of you map, the save gets deleted and you get banned off of scrap mechanic for exactly 69420 seconds. Once your ban elapses, you'll be able to remove any item from any warehouse, so long as you are online on your steam community.

@@Beregorn88 Devs already announced they are overhauling the entire warehouse system. Overhaul in dev terms basically means re-do/remake from the ground up. In other terms, rather than fix a broke system, they scrap (pun unintended/accident) the aspects that are bad is just do it again from scratch, but do it better with the new knowlage they learned. In this aspect, they could very well update the warehouses to be destroyable but not overly useful with what they give (like removing some of the concrete and level 3 metal and instead make it about the warehouse-exclusive cosmetic parts like ramps, tables, filing cabinets, ect).

Except the mountain theory actually was implimented. It was for the UFO thing, but people took it way too far and thought there was something after that. This on the other hand is just the result of releasing a game unfinished and implementing aspects before even the aspects *themselves* are finished >_> (Yes, I am still salty that the roof entrance basically just eats warehouse keys and does nothing if you didn't unlock the ground level elevator. There is no reason it should be able to do that in any build. >.>)

[@Cotcan]

Ya since they can be hooked up to with a connect tool the game needs to know what to do with them. So a simple 1 or 0 signal would do the trick until they could get the actual stuff up and running.

[@mason9666]

I wasn't expecting you to make another video on it

[@dcubed778]

The description of the Encryptor is the following: “Hides the connections on your creations from other mechanics. Connect it to a Battery container.” Ive done this to see what it would do. But the description doesn’t say anything about how to remove it from the warehouse, so I’m guessing that at this point in the game the only use for the encryptor is supplying power to the machines in the mechanic station like as if you were using a master battery. But remember that until the dev comes out with a way to decrypt the encryptor without commands, you wont be able to see how the machines in the mechanic station are connected to the master battery. See? Its just like the description says. Its hiding connections that would normally show up with the connection tool. As for the encryptor, there are still so many questions that still remain. But the question I want answered most at the moment is who wanted to keep us from seeing the connections. It might just be a part of the game, or a part of that game that hasn’t been released yet. It may not be the connections they were trying to hide, there also might not even be anyone or anything thats hiding something. Could just be nothing. I feel like I’m be looking way too far into this, so ill stop at least until the next couple updates come out. I have stuff to package, raids to defend against, and a really long message to send. Bye!

[@talinpeacy7222]

You're supposed to attach them to your vehicle and then a logic gate so that you can tell when you've loaded in a warehouse. Alternatively, they would make for decent vehicle armor.

[@DSIK]

for encryptors to work you need to modify a game file, a normal game won't let you do anything with them. For example, if you enable the game file and weld encryptor to the building it will become indestructible and you will see an animation except for explosives. if you do not enable the game file, then it will do nothing when you weld creation.

[@zeckfive7574]

Please keep doing these videos they cheer me up immensely

It's almost like no one reads the Dev blog: Encrypt Your Connections While you’re exploring buildings in Survival Mode, the temptation will definitely be there for you to whip out your connect tool and examine where all the interactive parts are located so you can get your scavenge on. One upcoming spanner in those particular works is gonna be the encryptor. This device will hide all of the connection wires until it’s removed from the structure on which it’s placed. Mechanics will of course be able to place and hide this device on their creations so that you can make life harder for any mischievous Mechanics, protecting yourself from those who are out to fiddle with your connections and snaffle your stuff.

[@TheCustomFHD]

To me it looks like a warehouse sensor lmao. Another wild theory = maybe bringing those 2 into a new warehouse makes a interference with the ones that are natively in the new warehouse and thus making it able to delete blocks? Idk. Just a thought.

Tere's a tonn of code for future stuff in the game left in the files but encryptors are the ONLY thing that has no associated files what so ever other than the fact that blocks exist and have connection point that's acting like always active switch and people are most obsessed about what we have least tech. info about! ) Btw things like controllers and cannons need an update (turn switch off-on) but since enryptors always active they cannot fire, horns are (all) old blocks so they don't need signal update Sorry for my english

[@The_Starling]

You just need to install a matched pair of encryptors to allow factory dismantle. Remove the orange from the building and bring a blue from another factory, (you can do it with 2 oranges, but Blue looks better), Leave one in each of the rooms you collect the encryptors from. Careful when you start dismantling after that that the encryptors do not fall from their rooms else you will no longer be able to disable... profit

I love your approach to the comments. XD This was a very entertaining video. It actually gave me an idea of something to try in my own world. Mostly just because I’m curious now.

If it’s not due to them being in a different tile, then maybe that’s the trick to it. Once I eventually try it, I’ll repost.

Also, the Encryptors inside will be able to be disabled and/or removed. Trash Bots will be added to the roofs of Warehouses"

[@supernova5434]

The encryptors probably give out a signal of 1, with connectionType.power, instead of connectionType.logic, which would explain why the logic gates turn on, because they take in both power and logic.

[@rodomify7681]

The main thing that I can think of as the use for them is for a warehouse detecting system, maybe whether or not they are on depends on how far away they are from a warehouse, and can therefore help you find new ones.

[@travisgreenaway1692]

The only reason that you can take those devices out of the warehouse is so you can protect your base from people trying to destroy it or the Bots trying to destroy it

[@YoYoK3nny]

Jokes, trolls and memes aside, the only way to do it would be to edit the Encryptor script file to give it an input and uncomment the function calls that respond to the state change of the input signal, then edit the blueprint of the encryptor room to add a switch. (Possibly more code changes than these are needed) Once they are outside and away from the warehouse, they are technically no longer part of the warehouse, but still have the restrictions applied (hence why you can't pick them up). That or there just isn't a pickup action set for them. And since the function to toggle the encryptionState never gets called, the warehouse never becomes decrypted.

[@OneLyfer]
