About Screw Drivers :
Build cars with combustion or electric engines, or maybe both? You design the powertrain using axles, gears and suspensions to get the power from the engines through the wheels and onto the asphalt. Whether you build rear-wheel-drive, or power all 30 wheels of your speed machine, as long as you engineer a gear transmission, you are guaranteed to go!
Crazy physics and high-speed races! Craft vehicles cleverly by combining building blocks and mechanical parts to create powerful drivetrains. Unlock new parts, race for the gold, and challenge your friends in multiplayer.

It's fun seeing how people create different vehicles within a similar space. I made a super compact 12 large cylinder, 6 speed, awd car smaller and lighter.
You made an existing car smaller and lighter?
Thanks so much for the lesson on weight distribution and how it affects steering, couldn't understand why my builds weren't turning but that gave me the solution
Accel isn't solely based on weight. When you're looking at wheels you look at the radius value. The lower value will provide faster acceleration at the cost of lower top speed.
Thanks for this! The way you did the low/high gears is genius. My tech tree campaign bugged at the very end and won't let me race the Secret Queen so I've just been building crazy cars to cope XD
A good way to generally design car in this game is to start from a single axel and add the engine/motor you want then add the transmission while everything is floating (use random block to place floating axel and stuff) then plan the traction power to point the transmission to the wheel axel then built the frame of the vehicle this help me a lot building faster, generally the frame is easy to build if you plan correctly a couple of attchment point to your components
For example instead of putting the gears on if you limit yourself to small and medium gears (including planetary) then you know the 3 block can be use to float an axel to transfer power
For the hillclimb the small street-tires perform rather well cause the initial acceleration has that big of an impact there.
Yep that's why I like them. 👍 they also have better wind resistance than any other tire for some reason giving you better top speeds. 🤷♂️
@@OZTRON Also noticed that you like building hybrids with engines of various performance characteristics. In general you want to avoid this. best is if both electric and ICE have similar top-RPM: then they both contribute for nearly all speeds. In general this means sticking with 1 type of electric and 1 type of combustion.
for hybrids it is often best to have them on different shafts and add gearing to get them to the same RPM. if one has say 3000 RPM and the other 3700 RPM then you want a 4:5 - small-to-medium - gearing to have all engines run as long as possible. Without that you might lose as much as 50% power right before shifting.
Most addicting game ever
At about 13 minutes what you were talking about is how the centre of gravity can be central, but, depending on where the weight actually is, you affect the moment of inertia. I dont know anything really about real cars, but i know physics, and it seems (i could be wrong) that a stable car would have a high moment of inertia, with weight far from the centre of gravity, requiring more torque about the vehicle's centre to turn it, and, as a consequence, easier for the power to push the front wheels into a slide rather than a turn, whilst a twitchy turning car would have all it's weight near to the centre of gravity. I'm just throwing out random thoughts, but it seems you could balance how much of a steering response you want by either centring the weight, or spreading it out, to tune the steering. However, with the somewhat clunky building of screw drivers - its good, but no copy, etc, means this process of testing would be so slow hehehe
A quick and simple solution to improve steering - if the above theory is true - would be to figure out where the centre of gravity is, and place a few hefty weights right there, increasing the weight until it turns nicely.
I beat the queen with a 15HP car :D
Upload your car to steam and I'll test it out. 👍
@@OZTRON I've sent you an email!
I figured out how to spilt gears on accident. Then started laughing cause I don’t know why I didn’t think about it earlier. Some 18 wheelers have an 18-speed transmission that works that way. Basically a 9 speed with a high and low for each gear. I love this game a little too much.
57:21 should've deleted the axis from the gas engines
LOL yeah I noticed that later, after editing... 🤦sometimes staring at this stuff for some long you miss the obvious. 🤷♂️
Just started playing myself... I made a car using 3x three step gear shifters... Seems the game gets very sad very quickly during initial loads when you start adding more gears... But then, thats 3^3^3 potential gears that need to be checked against the torque curves and analysed to know what is the best gear when.... got a lovely nice curve on the torque graph, but it wasnt using even a fifth of the range of each gear hehehe
My favourite drive so far tho, has to be one of the silly trikes i made with just a silly amount of engines added, and no gears. just a fun drive, not necesarily the most effective :)
4 gears seems to be the optimal amount of gears for the acceleration test (drag race). making the last gear end on around 420kmh
6 gears is too much for anything and just slows you down. 6 gears is only good for going 450+ and you never really do that.
you could double your 6 speed with a second two speed transmission. 1x1 to 1x6 then 2x1 to 2x6.
Seperate electic and ice i am telling you that will make a perfect hybrid put electric on top gears make the 3 gears and put ice after that in bottom gears it will rip from start to end
Ok I'll give that a try. It's challenging trying to fit everything in. Maybe I'll make a long rail dragster with a hybrid setup laid out like you suggest. 😁👍
@@OZTRON try stacked
My game thinks that I don"t even have more than 1 gear and dosen"t let me to change gears
Weird, make sure nothing is colliding and that gears are engaging. 👍
î have 10-speed trans
