Why Your Glowbugs WILL DIE in 43,200 Seconds! - Scrap Mechanic Science

I'll show you EXACTLY why glowbugs die in Scrap Mechanic and what you can do to keep them from despawning. Time to solve the mystery of glowbugs despawning in Scrap Mechanic.
Glowbugs are essential in Scrap Mechanic to get glow poop. Thus it only makes sense to build glowbug farms. But how should you build them? Do they need to be in the water? Do you need to splash water onto them? How often do you need to feed them with cardboard? I'll answer all these questions for you. Time for some Scrap Mechanic Science!
Do you like glow worms? Who doesn't like glowbugs? You can even build glowbug boats with them! And let's not forget about those shiny glow sticks! Maybe check out my glowbug playlist: • Glowbugs

I've been meaning to make this video for quite a while and finally got to finish it! I hope you like it.

[@datboi9316]

I really love your content, why dont you make a your own tv channel, where only scrap mechanic are allow in the tv

[@datboi9316]

Since you already have all content that happen in irl

[@Dr-Pixel]

@@datboi9316 TV's dead anyway. We have this channel. Video on demand is where it's at anyway. But thanks for the compliment.

[@datboi9316]

@@Dr-Pixel ow, its a good idea for everyone to watch your channel too

[@datboi9316]

@@Dr-Pixel but i actually still love to watch you on unlimited time (via TV)

[@Mateo-zi8ub]

I saw Einstein and glowbugs in the same video. WOW

[@JessicaMarinaRushie]

That is the best intro I have ever seen on KZbin... The Piston shell things are such a cleaver idea. You should be a director...

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thank you very much! I don't think I possess the skills to be a director though. I'm just taking some jokes too far, but I love doing that.

[@JessicaMarinaRushie]

@@Dr-Pixel Nah you could do it. That intro is seriously top class.

[@rylenstuffsv2]

It's amazing that he puts this much hard work every video this is quality content He really needs more subs

[@gabrielparmakissmith7690]

love the content. keep it up!

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks

[@spacewalk3046]

I like that you put time dialation in the game that's really cool

[@XavierCat]

I love the Rube-Goldberg machine you made!

[@iLikeRunes]

Best scrap ytuber ever!

I love your videos man !

[@SriRahayu-pt4gx]

Thaks for di info

[@JB_ea]

Can you make a mod that lets you use the lift in survival to summon creations like in creative

[@shellshockhkmk7816]

No need. Devs have said that that’s coming to survival. It most likely needs you to have the required parts in your inventory tho

[@shxellyyt7656]

Once again a awesome video. And btw my brother told me ur channel 🤣

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks! And you have an awesome brother.

[@username_mihai]

good job dude!

[@kabinet0]

Yay!, also are you releasing the time dilation mod, it could be funny :D

[@Dr-Pixel]

I could, but you need to adjust lightspeed to feel an effect. That would mean more work, and if you want plants to grow faster and stuff like this, I need to modify all of the time calculations in the game, which is just a bunch of work.

[@kabinet0]

@@Dr-Pixel Fair, I have some coding experience (mainly c++ and python) how can I get into modding scrap mechanic myself?

[@Dr-Pixel]

@@kabinet0 Notepad++, open the .lua files, and the code is all yours. I could show you the basis if you want sometime on my Discord, I guess.

[@crazyfrog4275]

🤣🤣 man you nailed the unsolved mysteries Intro

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks!

[@TheDartFrog]

they also have a bug that prevents them from roaming around btw :p they technically can roam, but only for 1 tick

[@DogeisCut]

Ive been trying to mod the lift to remove ALL of its restrictions, including invalid joints and stuff. So far i have removed the restrictions for collisions, but still need to make it able to lift anything and load anything. Do you know how i could do this?

[@diggerrocks8712]

Love your videos

[@diggerrocks8712]

Keep up the great work and content

[@diggerrocks8712]

Also can I get 1000 subs so I can have a fortnite creator code so I can publish maps

[@quickhhaos7793]

0:28 HOLLY MUCK!!!! ITS FANT MOD!!!!

[@GeisemoOUTATIME]

in the world with my friend they dont disappear they just apear (spawn) near the other glowbugs

[@hamburger_eatspie]

just make a mod so glow bugs have a very very very long lifespan.

[@_sickaduck]

You can make timed bombed/C4.

[@mr.nonubs298]

Cool intro :)

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks!

[@blueman4232]

truly disgusting, that some people would do this horrible thing

[@TheRealYgrek]

You could also just say "so since the time goes brrr the glowbug's age also goes brrr and they die" and its a free 5 second long video

[@km077]

Learning this the hard way was really sad...

[@Vlad-te5ij]

The right side of the preview looks like GTA V - more realistic, I wish scrap mechanic was so

[@blar-blar9848]

Can we all admit that the into was a pretty good recreation of the x files'

[@acgaming007]

you should have picked the dude up at the beggining of the 12 hours

[@julienlapointe8204]

But do they despawn if the tile is not loaded?

[@adeyeomoi1246]

You forget farmbot can kill glowbogs and other bots can too

don't be sorry! I like comments!

[@justadam358]

Hmmmm Science

[@lechking941]

well than i can see soem madlads using a auto timer to despence ever 11 hours a single carboard per glow bug to keep them alive just for the time but also have a auto feeder for 8 for max carboard to bug use.

[@Dr-Pixel]

Exactly, maximum efficiency.

[@lechking941]

@@Dr-Pixel now a new question is placed. How any maxed timer blocks are needed for that once every 11 hours.

[@TheRobeRanger]

Are you sure that’s the best for them?
