I was getting worried about him. Started thinking the worst then I saw him in trailmakers on scrapman’s channel and was so relieved! Nice to see him back on his own channel as well. I suppose he just needed a break from scrap mechanic which I can understand. I wouldn’t mind watching him play some other games on this channel just to keep variety and prevent a game from getting “stale”. Doesn’t even have to be a sandbox builder game either.

S-Steam roller? **hears the JoJoFans running in the distance**

[@idioticrehab6614]

Take off the front wheels or the rear and let the roller serve as wheels, you will turn better because it pivots better when it’s not fighting an extra set of wheels

[@zacharvey3173]

Omg!!! I’m so glad you’re back! Been loving watching the streams when I am!!

I thought you were killed by a greenie. Turns out, you’re alive

[@yashthegamer4250]

OMG YOUR BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ianschlager9505]

The outer pistons are fighting the middle piston all the time, making turning from one direction to another slower. You should have that middle piston contract half way to zero whenever you press A or D so it turns faster with more force.

[@roccov3614]

That's what I was thinking. The middle piston needed to be half length. It would especially help when turning from one direction immediately to the other direction.

[@astronomicalgamer205]

Can i ask where were you i was so sad when you dident post for ages. Glad your back. But where were you? Edit: i read the community posts and that makes senses. Hope your ok

I did something interest once, I had a mobile base, it was one of those land trains with the cars and everything, but it was powered by a single mono-wheel, it was slow and heavy, but I liked it, also after a while I got tire of how hard it was to move at a decent speed so I added a second wheel which made it harder to turn so I returned to one. Land trains are really fun to make and makes exploration interesting with all of the obstacles.

[@whusmanameAtGeeMail]

Moonbo!!! Welcome back!!! Where've you been, dude... we've MISSED you.

[@TheWheatley]

Awesome to see you are back on scrap mechanic!

[@w.binder-freecadchannel]

Good idea Moonbo, Nice to hear from you again!

[@jacquilinepanaguiton7903]

Thank goodness your back moonbo I had rough and tough times without your videos

[@toddabbott781]

You are actually fighting that middle piston... just get rid of it. You only need the outer two pistons. You could put a regular hitch like you had and have the two pistons set up as a push/pull to double the strength... then make the hitch bearing steerable to add even more. This way you could have a far better steering speed... which would let you do this with only 2 controllers (for steering) and less upgrade kits. I would double up on the bearings on the drum and vehicle wheels for more speed (try just powering the drum first). Scrap Man got me into this game, but I did not run across even him until 1Q 2023. I am doing a mostly nomad build with only a farm and glow bugs at a fixed location. I have saws all around the farm on a peninsula and the 2 side they typically attack from has an arm on the corner that swings back and forth pushing the bots into the saws. It is not very powerful so it struggles, but gets them pretty good anyways (mostly because they can not jump back and slowly get pushed in). I have tested it with a second day raid on 64 oranges and it worked well. I just had 3 hay bots stuck in the water on one side as it is too steep to climb out. All the reset were4 killed by the saws. The arms actually do a bit of damage to the bots too. I kept it compact so 1 gas engine could power enough saws to go about 70% around the farm. I have 8 water cannons on a pivot in the middle hooked to 4 water chests with 4 pumps and this is plenty as the pumps are MUCH faster now (around 4x or more). My vehicle is WAY smaller than Scrap Man's nomad vehicle as I run 6 chests with 4 on the bottom and 2 flipped over on each end and the craft bot in the middle. Then I tipped the whole thing on the side. I walk on the screen and the back sticks out the bottom a bit, but this makes the floor the thickness of large container on its side. The refiner plugs into the end of the crafting chain but sadly I could not put it on its side. I only have one resource collector though as I put my bed in the floor with a door over it. Around my bed is the gas and ammo canister and all the controllers and gas engine. This way I hit a button to reveille them if I need to adjust something. I have small 2x2 block giving me access to each pair of containers in the craft chain. I have one extra in the back of the vehicle to my pump for the packing stations and a water tank. I have a hatch that opens on the roof and a door on each side that flips up when I get out of my seat.. I have the chef bot on top of the battery container in the back with the dress bot. I have a table with a mug and all 3 sandwiches. I even have a toilet, toilet paper and sink. In the new update they are adding fire and I built my vehicle out of wood (with cardboard on the ceiling) to keep it light and have a very low center of gravity. It is almost impossible to flip. Well to protect my vehicle I added a water cannon on top pointed at a 45 degree angle that spins around like a sprinkler. Every time it goes around it angles up 15 degrees until it hits 90 degrees. This covers the whole vehicle and everything around it. I can do this maybe 2-3 times before running out of water, but I have probably double that amount of water in my crafting chain too. I have 5 drills up front on a bar that can angle up and down 30 degrees. This works great for mining and is hooked up to its own electric battery. This kills anything but a farm bot on a ram. I can swap them out for 3 saw blades underneath. I leave the bearings for both on so I do not need to reconnect the motor. I have saw blades under the edge of the vehicle sticking out, but unpowered and drills on the 6 evenly spaced wheels (with front and back steering and the middle tires fixed). It is pretty fast and turn well and does not flip over and the regular bots are scared of it. I have lights inside and lots of lights on the front and all the windows are the large bubble windows. They look so nice I had to use them. I have 4 in the front, but sadly the refine bot takes up a lot of space on the right side. I have a single strip of wood between the windows (as the vehicle is an odd number of blocks wide) and have 2 spud guns out the front... one on top of the other instead of side by side. I did an old school paint job of cream (pail yellow was the closest) and dark red... red on the bottom 1/4 and roof and cream on the side with black underneath and in the wheel wells and on the floor inside. I do not have a horn... yet. Sadly my map is odd. I have very few farmers (5 total) and 3x 4 floor warehouses and only a single 2 floor warehouse. I hate running those 4 floor warehouses. They take forever and dying sucks. I have plenty of everything else pretty close to my farm and the packing station. I also have only found 1 farm bot location and one more in the 4 floor warehouse I cleared. I am wondering if I will need to start over when the new updates come out (hopefully sometime this year (2023). They are adding a bunch of new bots (6-8 it looks like), some new outfits, better lighting, fire, bug fixes, less lag... and it will be the retail version finally. I think it has been in early access for what, 7 years.

[@luckykibbles1311]

Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed your time off!!

[@dhelfinabueg9125]

I missssss this series!!!!!!!!!!!! And you can just connect the controller to the seat directly.

[@galaxygamingboy]

Yes, I knew a video was coming!

[@rellboy2932]

So glad you are back to making vids I was worried that something bad had happened

[@MattyO2019]

Welcome back Moonbo!

[@lotychannel6126]

Finally you back. Idea: build a much bigger steamroller and crush the boss bot

[@LionHeartBlue]

Great to see you back on this game! Loved the StreamRoller. Would it be worth adding a resource collector to the back to collect the Haybot bits after you crush them?

[@davidarbogast37]

This is a pretty cool build. You should definitely load it up in a test save and see if you can at least plow down a farmbot. Perhaps extend the braces for the roller upwards above it and put some spud guns that are slightly angled down so you could shoot the farmbot if you are able to knock it down.

[@deltacx1059]

I actually used those cylander parts as wheels, we used a piston engine so we didnt need to worrry about power.

[@FlinQR]

Moonbo how i missed u dude it's been a month since you last uploaded thank god your back bud

[@Midrealm_DM]

Rather than fight your middle piston, you could use two pistons in the middle, each attached to only one of the two controllers for left and right. When you turn , retract a single middle piston reducing middle length by half

[@mr_ninj4918]

You didn't have to make it steer from the front side, you could just make it steer from the back wheels which is a lot easier and stronger for these types of vehicles!

[@Jseals14]

Yay moonbo is back love the intro

[@demongod1752]

If you mad the back tires steer with the steamroller it will turn hella sharp. I always do all wheel drive and all wheel steering it's actually really good in the game you can even adjust em and make your truck crab walk.

[@Creative_YT]

Finally more survival

[@jeremiemontes4642]

Its real you are back, when i saw that one wheel challenge i headed over here to check if youre back and certainly, you are back, we missed you

[@sammarvilabratique9134]

Im happy that moonbo is back

[@chronicgaming3280]

Great vid, try removing the front wheels from the rear half, also you may find it works better if you allow the piston on the outside of the turn to extend, as it is its limiting your turn.

[@janekguzinski5060]

Finally your here!!

[@irfanparkar1262]

Oh MOONBO you are back after 4 months of wait for you

[@minceraft8655]

I wonder what would happen if the roller is made of the big spiky tires.

[@Deathrunner-sr9xe]

Moonboooooooooooooooooo you are back yesssssssss

[@raysen3607]

I suppose you can improve a little more the turning performance by having the middle piston set at half the length (4) instead of being zero. Initially it was contrasting the turn, but now it contrasts releasing it, making it slower to change from left to right turning.

[@gaalidas4836]

If your rear section had a single pivot, standard steering would be more responsive.

[@gamingwolfboy4130]

Moonbo your back we have been looking forward to appearance we all missed

[@marclahusky3830]

I’m always ready for scrap mechanic

[@ToaDrakua]

I'm reasonably sure you can connect a controller straight into the driver seat, alleviating the need for a button to activate forward propulsion.

[@chunk3332]

ROADA ROLLA DA!!!!!

[@goodbadison417]

Yehh i miss your videos so much, its been along time since youve uploaded a video

[@m14srv]

It makes more sense to move the vehicle forward and add rear steer so the "steering pivot" over the top of the roller

[@spacewalk3046]

Glad you are back! but about crushing the farmbot, i get why you didn't do it but can't you just backup your world before you do it? Edit: I like the new end screen it's really cool!

[@SadisticRevenge]

Should have backed up your save done the manly thing and run down big red 😂

[@FractalIND]

you can hook the driver seat directly to the controller and it will work in reverse too,i have all my veihecles on controllers

[@secretsecret3528]

I'd like to see if you can build artillery or some sort of explosive canister launcher 😁

YOUR BACK!!!

[@robertkeyes6550]

Glad your back twitch streams have cool to though

[@rockmeoable]

You need tank steetring. and that's it. btw you gave me an idea to defend a farm with pendulum mechanics.

[@BananenBoerBob]

Can you stack bearings for more speed? Would removing the middle piston work as it is only really limiting your speed? Would splitting the roller in 2 halves with a freespinning bearing in between allow for some sort of differential steering? Also building your seat above the roller and removing the last set of wheels might allow for tighter turning

[@ryancolella4875]

I thought he died or something welcome back!

[@jannilynbustamante8926]

OMG you back :D

[@zack_games]

Moonbo you could put some rear weel steering to make the turning radius

[@RobiBue]

I do must say that I am a little bit disappointed that there was no Red Crush :( Woc, Haybot and Totebot (and corn, fences, and pile-o-leaves) but at least as a video exit you could have went for a Big Red :( Nice build tho! I remember the big-wheel subaquatic vehicle from way-back-when... :)
