When Free bird comes on the radio in Space Engineers

i spent way to long on this
enjoy
the solo starts at 5:35
all grids are made by me

1st person perspective flyby gold

[@hunmg3769]

this is absolutely incredible, i never would have dared to make a flying vehicle in this game that only has a forward thruster and the rest is just controlled by a gyro

[@toylegman3315]

it is a very different way to fly its more like a helicopter than anything else but i made that ship for the expanse server where you can only have one direction of thrust

[@connorbingel7134]

I made a ship like that when I got stuck. Works great to get to space and then dump

[@axialivanov6101]

​@@toylegman3315you can have retro thrusters and reverse thrusters as many as you want you only have the main drive (Epstein) in the rear or bottom

[@Alpha-cx8vl]

It's the most fun kind! You just need a hydrogen thruster a hydrogen tank a gyro and a small reactor and a controle seat! Cheap point a to point b! Rocket man!

[@zeash482]

with how the speed limit works its actually pretty easy to fly, landing is where it gets tricky

[@HyperformA1]

Reference for people who don't know, when he's flying close to terrain and you see the blue light from the thrusters, that light only occurs when hes got about 3-5 meters of clearance. In other words, VERY close for something of that size and weight.

[@primalyt123]

The aryx drive thrusters have slightly more range for the light its about 10 meters depending on which size the largest one has a light range of like 40 or 50 meters

tnx i had fun flying it

[@gordonhowett7529]

How many tries did it take before you got it right?!?!? Honestly man, great flying! @@toylegman3315

[@gaster000]

First of all, you actually managed to learn how to play Space Engineers. Second, you put Freebird IN the game. Nice

[@kalskirata42]

the sequel to this video will feature zero speed limits :)

[@omninimbus006]

This could actually break the one-thruster flying, because of how the speed limit works in SE. In SE, if you try to accelerate over 100 m/s, the magnitude of your velocity is reduced to under 100 m/s, but your thruster keeps accelerating your forward. This means an extremely powerful forward thruster(s) can actually override gravity and let you fly without upwards thrust. This kind of flying is certainly possible with a speed mod (I've done it around asteroids), but on a planet it becomes MUCH harder.

[@kalskirata42]

@@omninimbus006 that's right... vrage engine limitations and all that... really hope to see SE2 with that new vrage engine, maybe then we can actually go above 100m/s natively

[@ZethGamer]

@@kalskirata42 I've actually spoken with Jan Hloušek about that during a presentation they were doing. 300 m/s will be the default. Not only that but the way engine handles things will be more streamlined thanks to change from Object Oriented to Data Driven approach. The part that impressed me the most was fluid dynamics - while it looked like thick soup during presentation, the actual calculations are only done to the parts that are going through a change. This means that something like a river is not gonna set your computer on fire the moment you approach it.

[@kalskirata42]

@@ZethGamer so we're not gonna see anything crazy like natural terrain deformation from rivers? I mean, it'd be nice to see a river changing course over the lifespan of a save, but then I imagine it'd defeat the purpose of saving resources on calculating new values. Neat tricks all around though, looking forward to seeing the release

[@lego_is_cool8687]

Holy shit man that was incredible. When you got into the ship i was thinking oh he's going to wait for the drop and yup you did! and your piloting is so fucking good!!! Clearly a master at the game.

[@itswindyyy]

No thrusters lifting it up. Just sheer force

[@J_Madison]

Best game ever made, hands down. Even with the plethora of bugs..

while i agree its in the top 15.....have you ever played Batman: Arkham Knight?

[@shunkim6543]

I will never understand the gutteral instinct to do some cool shit to that music, but I fuckin love it. Great vid and flying skills btw. Its hard for me to avoid crashing into asteroids in space so I can imagine how hard it must be to do all of that with a forward thruster and gyro.

[@BeardieD]

Got Guardians of the Galaxy vibes from this! I've contemplated making a mod with my favourite playlist now this has just made me want to do it now for real!

[@quadro1493]

The glass in the cockpit looks like the screen effect of titanfall 2.

[@SolTheIdiot]

One word. RAW. I got goosebumps when the solo went off, i like how you included the calm part of freebird, since I've never seen that before i was like "this is freebird?" And then "OH YEAH IT IS!"

[@synka5922]

this thing has so much propulsion it just completely cancels out the gravitational pull due to the speed limit... amazing

[@Hexagonaldonut]

Chief, you missed some of those rocks by what must've been *centimeters.* Respect. All of the respect. I haven't played Space Engineers in ages, but I'm pretty confident in how utterly ridiculous what you just did is.

[@GuillotineRegent]

Far and away the best thing I've seen in weeks. Keep up the good shit dawg

[@SteffDev]

I love your piloting skills! I was on the edge of my seat!

[@tgman6000]

Perfect Space Engineers video. The fruits of meticulous engineering in the first act, spectacular piloting in the second, all in a gorgeous setting. The latter being done purely with gyroscopics and one big thruster makes it all the more satisfying.

[@axelb6975]

I'm almost more amazed he got a wheeled vehicle working without clang!

[@jeso0135]

this video gives me the same feeling as jim from treasure planet dodging all the debris from when the planet exploding at the end of the film trying to open the portal to the space port at the beginning

[@dansolo9573]

[@shingshongshamalama]

I love how there's absolutely no acceleration in a space physics simulation.

[@5bars3g36]

The game engine unfortunately has a hardcap on object velocity that can only be broken by weaponizing illegal physics operations.

[@Mothlord03]

Yeahhh, the engine is pretty limited. I heard they're making a second game in a different engine that'll be better suited though
