Hydraulics Tutorial #2 - The Perfect 90 | Poly Bridge 2

This is the second video in a series of tutorial videos on how to create hydraulic bridges in Poly Bridge 2 that move where you want them. This continues from where the first video left off and shows how a controlled 90 degree rotation can move roads great distances. Check the comments for level codes to practice these concepts on.

Hydraulic Campaigns to Play In Order of Difficulty AvRJA, V4BqA, ArkLn, Ap32b, V4JqA

[@ruler255]

“ArkLn” and “Arglin” what a concidence for a hydraulic campaign

[@peppermintmiso4341]

i used to do them by parallelograms but can't figure out why they break sometimes but now everything changes. i even learn some fundamental geometry. damn you're so smart

[@navarchofthesky]

dude, i needed this. thank you. this is sooo underrated.

[@navarchofthesky]

this is also really informative and helpful

[@Slash_I_Am]

This video has been a great help and is very informative. Time for me to re-do my hydraulic levels correctly this time. Thank you very much you've been a great help and a definite sub well earned 👍🏻

[@barefootalien]

Fantastic tutorial, thank you! Finally got the diagonal elevator level done!

[@jakaima1381]

such a comprehensive tutorial i love ur style, made it very easy to understand by piling little by little on last concept huge thanks

[@vipereleol6307]

I complete 4-15 Challenge mode thanks to you !!
Edit : I also complete 4-15 master mode with only one hydraulic now

[@potynawowasanhee8073]

thank you! very informative and easy to understand, waiting for part 3 XD

[@TheLazyComet]

its on my (very long) to-do list

[@tuxxyy1]

This literally made me smarter. Thank you!

[@shammash1124]

Great tutorial a bit complicated but easily explained

[@Bl4ze-YT]

Thank you

[@eyeburgers]

Hey man your videos are so so good it is by far the best tutorial I have found on here. It is helping me a lot. How do you get the locking button when you are choosing the 1's and 2's for pivots. Pivots are so hard for me I know I am just missing a little key bit of info that is making me look at them the wrong way. I can't get a bridge to do two split joints on both sides, where one side it splits completely to go up and the other side it split joint but it stays in place and just pivots at an angle. Your videos are top notch my dude

[@TheLazyComet]

The lock is secretly a 1. The lock only appears when you are making a split joint on an anchor (red joint). The game has to decide what joints get what numbers and "red joints are always 1" is a carry over from Poly Bridge 1 but now with a new symbol

[@TheLazyComet]

As for pivot points, 9 times out of 10 you won't be pivoting at the joint you are splitting. The pivot is what you want to rotate around. If you remove the hydraulic, then the bridge should swing around the pivot.

[@eyeburgers]

@@TheLazyComet Oh wait a minute that makes a lot of sense. I think I was trying to split both sides. IT GETS SO CONFUSING haha but this game is so fun and when I see people like you with your crazy contraptions it makes me happy I got into civil engineering and I'll be there soon. Look forward to more of your videos thank you so much for taking a moment to help

[@Bogdan100pink]

Amazing video and all but I am still stuck 6-03 please make part 3 I don't know how to make it expand more than a diamond hydraulic

[@maximju.3184]

Awesome!

[@davee2907]

your vid is very helpful (:

[@Lorium.]

Amazing

[@majestic6idiot]

how does this guy have only 1k subscribers? his video's are fantastic!

[@kxjx]

Really helpful

[@TheLazyComet]

Glad to hear that

[@afrightenedsloth]

It took me a while to fully figure all of this video out, but I've done it

[@TheLazyComet]

glad this served as your jumping off point. i tried to break it down as well as i could

[@firecat1007]

My brain understood nothing but it is interesting to watch still for some reason

[@808MonstaMike808]

Will there more videos? You can't leave us hanging? No pun intended lol

[@ambignoob]

i was your 666th subscriber 😳 could it be that the secret to poly bridge is selling your soul?

[@smolbrain8650]

How do i make the circle spin like that ?
For the one who teached me to use hydrolics better.

[@aviram1858]

amazing

[@TheLazyComet]

Thanks

[@Krydolph]

I know I am not dumb, and actually pretty decent at maths....
Still even with all the explaining, it is borderline magical.
It seems to make sense, when you explain, but I don't know that I could do it without following along on the second screen....

[@TheLazyComet]

it can be like that sometimes. i hate to admit how many times i've had to look up how to make a 180 deg linkage

[@ivanyana]

When will 180°tutorial be?)

[@rancidraw]

how would you connect those 2 orange / blue arms on a wider bridge?

[@TheLazyComet]

Rope. just make sure its always in tension, otherwise you may need 2 ropes

[@Brixell]

Mr Comet, you cannot use the quadratic formula to calculate the hypotenuse, but you can instead use Pythagoras theorem.

[@TheLazyComet]

uhh....pretend you just didnt see that :)

[@Hoono_Hasiraaka]

How can I change the color of my rebar?

[@TheLazyComet]

i downloaded mods for my game
