I had one of those "wow how did I not think of this before" moments when trying to make a bomber flyer that could drop bombs on command, easily and safely. Using two holders facing each other, on steering hinges allows you to make containers that safely store the bombs till you release them. I also strapped some cannons on the front so it feels a bit more like an A-10. It flies extremely well, only thing I haven't set up yet is banking controls but honestly it stays so stable in flight that i can just use yaw controls to spin around quickly. edit: They also double as landing struts. If I'm feeling skilled enough I'll make a re-arming station that'll let me reload the bombs a few times.

^^^ Slick I wanted a general all-purpose catapult and came up with this baby. The catapult's footprint is pretty small, so I decided to make a hopper and reloader. Works smooth as hell. I'm proud of myself for reigning in my urge to make wildly useless physics demo objects.

The game does have its own official forums, although they're not advertised heavily. Still, there's some neat stuff posted there, such as: It's a guided missile launcher.

Grabbed this game, started playing it at 9pm, suddenly it's 1:30am and I didn't even realise. Holy poo poo this game is absolutely fantastic and almost justifies the clusterfuck that is Early Access. I'm cranking out videos of my creations as I go along. They're not gonna be anywhere near as technically proficient as most people's, but I hope they're unique in their own way! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWbd3mvKtmQ This video has my first three creations. I wanted to see if I could go through the game with one stock creation and then make alterations to it as I went along, sort of evolving it, but that idea quickly hit the fan when I realised I could make a loving DEATH SCORPION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bQyxCxqcBM The Venus Friedchap (). I love making trap-like creations and turret buildings in games like these, so when I made a triple trebuchet without thinking about the logisitics of positioning, the obvious happened. I decided to lace the contraption with wonderful soldier slaughtering spikes for added zing and the results were fantastic. I'm so glad to see a super fun and flexible Nuts N' Bolts style game for the PC. I really enjoyed Cargo but it felt like it was trying too hard for its own good, this game offers the right blend of crazy and chill to really let you make the most of the tools it gives you. Can't wait to play with it more.

I built a trebuchet that only pulls itself apart like 75% of the time. 20% of the time the bomb explodes because I forgot to release it or it smacks into its holder too hard. The other 5% of the time I overshoot the target by about a factor of 4. Game owns.

Can you change the orientation of things other than wheels? I keep finding I want to change which axis a swivel pivots on, or change the direction cannons are facing, and I can't seem to figure it out.

Is there a way to lift a machine up after you drop it on the ground? I want to put wheels on a machine, they would fit just fine but I can't figure out how to pick it up so I can add them.

F changes the direction that a moving part spins or swivels.

MECHA-CRAB! Comes equipped with a powerful cannon-bite and flaming claws of death. It also walks suprisingly well, and I can change direction quite easily. The only real problem is my keyboard's lovely n-key rollover blocking some of the keypresses. I have 6 sets of controls to operate it, and 4 buttons make the legs walk properly. FEAR HIM!

Songbearer posted:I made a tiny, tiny mortar! Happiest mortar. Medieval tank: Ben Hur spikes edition. All works like a real tank and handles the slopes of sandbox mode without any isisue, the only shame is that the cannon has only one shot and then you've only got the retractable spike ram.

Do pistons work well with bomders/bombs? I'm stuck on levels where I have to destroy structures with explosions because I lengthen my pistons to launch the bombs but they just explode immediately.

Captain Diarrhoea posted:And to think everything I end up making is basically some kind of car with like one moving part. You build on from there. Basically start building things you can't possibly imagine working and then try to make them work, sometimes you can get some inspired results by just randomly slapping some of the advanced powered blocks on willy-nilly and then pushing all the buttons. Seriously, some people are just sadistic. The creation from 8:15 in the compilation that traps a bunch of people in a room and then clinically burns them to death is actually kind of horrifying. People are so creative when it comes to horribly slaughtering people I wonder what additions they'll wind up making to the game. Part of me hopes that traveling to other lands will give you different eras of weaponary, or cultural styles like Chinese-inspired creations with firework launchers and so on. This is such an incredibly polished, fun little toy. I bought Dying Light recently and I've completely put it aside in favour of playing this instead.

Your flamers are setting your balls on fire e: try swapping the flamethrowers in the center part with the spiked balls on the arms facing outward, your machine might not burn up that way and the spiked balls will still cover the same area.
