@@Mr_Chest great idea, but then you could completely surround the base in these heads and you would already be safe from low level raids. Saws and drills require a decent amount of metal, and to surround the base you would need a LOT of them, but it's worth the effort.

In theory, you could make a “teleportation machine” where it drops a seat onto wheels and it launches the seat to somewhere in the world, and the more bearings you power the farther you go. You could set some to launch you almost anywhere in the world(in theory). That would be crazy.
The only (serious) problem of this idea is famous "you are playing the game wrong" thing Remember when 3 (or 4) videos ago Scrapman was looting 4flor warehouse he fell under map in elevator twice and lost 100spuds in total And later fell under map with full backpack and luckily not lost that stuff
@@milanmurali6157 I was meaning more of a new part that keeps track of what time it is so even if it despawns when you come back it would still know what time it is
@@poo2137 It would be a very useful and cool part. I mean, there's a daylight sensor in Minecraft, and I feel like it would work _SO_ much better in Scrap Mechanic than in Minecraft, because the enemies in Minecraft that spawn at night don't actually attack your base, they're just kinda there. The only MInecraft applications for a daylight sensor that I can recall are lights that turn on during the nighttime to make up for lack of natural daylight, and some automatic farms; and that first one is more of a cooler-looking novel alternative to the _much_ cheaper and always active methods, like torches. And that is my overly long way of saying: "Cool idea, I very much agree."
The timer is not necessary. Scrapman manually activates the bounce floor at the start of each raid. Therefor, with a memory bit and delay, the engine can be disabled automatically.
@@milanmurali6157 It will desynchronized with the game clock if the chunk is unloaded. However Scapman does stay at the farm for several days at once. It will be beneficial to have a 57,600 tick clock (24 minutes, exact).
Even though they use a lot more honey, I would recommend using the large wheels, they launch the bots further (in my experience at least) and they have a gentler curve for the bots to walk up onto, meaning that the WhipBots are less likely to attack it.
Just wanna say, thanks for the content. It really lifts my mood, and distracts me from my depression. Im getting better slowly, and these videos really help. ❤️
You could add the sensors into the walls, making them sense them if they're close enough. Or, you could use a sensor from below, allowing you to, again, sense them. Or from above. Or just cover them in warehouse keys
The wheels in your first tiny test were one above the floor, which is why it worked so well while the next few tests didn't. Also, try defending the sensor pillars with warehouse keys so if a boss does come, they won't get destroyed.
You should make an alternative farm far away from your base for farming high value crops so if bosses come then you won't have to be worried if they break stuff.
@@crazyjaygaming9858 Yeah, I usually watch videos a few days or even weeks after they're uploaded, so I consider myself "early" if the video is only a few hours old; and before I had an account and could subscribe to people, almost all videos I watched were years old, and I still frequently watch videos that are multiple years old. I think the earliest I've ever been on a video was two minutes after it was posted, and that was actually earlier today. There were only 12 comments at the time, so I had time to tell all of the "first" comments that they weren't actually first, because I could just switch it to sort by most recent and scroll to the bottom comment to see which one was actually first. Although I will say that being early can be fun for about a minute because you get to constantly refresh the page, and after each refresh most of the numbers (views, likes, comments, and sometimes dislikes) continue to skyrocket. And that was an unexpected wall of text originally intended to just be a fun comment...I seem to do that a lot...
If the dev's ever add a time sensor or something like that, you should use the Greenie heads as like a raid siren that goes off 1 minute before the raid. And maybe It could trigger some normal lights in front of the base.
Hi I'm 11 and I'm in the hospital because I had appendicitis. Which means I had an infection in my appendix and had to get it removed or else it would explode. This guy makes me feel better some how and distracts me from the pain in my abdomen. Thank you scrap man.
My comment on one of the old survival mode video: "I wonder if Hank accidentally set free by one of the bot from a raid and scrapman shot him" Scrapman now during raid: Hank is not here, by the way Me: *:)*
I know it's kind of an older video, but some thoughts. Perhaps just some experimenting in creative mode instead of revisiting survival. 1. Two layers of wheels (expensive in survival) interleaved, with the second layer in the gaps where the blocks are. 2. A wheel pen: Once the first wheels are activated, a second row a bit further back lift up out of the floor, and the bots are flung back and forth until they go poof. 3. Swept sensor array: Set sensors on bearings, controlled by controllers, on a loop. Have the sensors swing back and forth, with overlapping ranges, from the overhang. Zero chance of totebots, haybots, farmbots (maybe launches might?) damaging the sensors. 4. Put the wheels on pistons, and have them spin AND thrust upwards. This last one is kinda out there, it might not even actually work fast enough to matter.
22:20 If you used a vacuum pump to harvest the crop, you could have it feed into ammo containers instead of chests. But only when farming potatoes. Since ammo containers will only hold potatoes, everything else vacuumed up will be deleted. Unfortunately you'd need 6 ammo containers to hold the same amount of potatoes as a single chest.
So I meant to comment when this came out. Not sure if you fixed it in the next video. But you CAN use bearings and get faster than engine rotation. You stack multiple bearings, where the rotation from one adds to the next. As the second bearing is already rotating welded to the first ITs rotation then doubles the speed. 5 bearings stacked should be more than enough to have a constantly running trap. And no sensors to worry about
Scrapman, remember CardLife? I bet that's what they mean by "chapter" like the Cobalt and above armors and tools. That was a "generation" (I think lol it's been quite a while my guy, consider revisiting it sometime?) If you read this, I love you dude, you're here EVERY day for me and I can't tell you how much I appreciate that :)
I suggest moving your sensors so they're part of the wall, that way you don't have to worry about bots destroying them. You'd have to have a lot more sensors, but it would help prevent gaps in sensor coverage and protect the sensors as well. Plus they wouldn't need to be fully upgraded, since the distance is shorter, therefore saving component kits.
R.I.P. Log Truck; We never really used ye, but you looked cool. You shall be missed. R.I.P. Farmbot Cage; You gave us Hank and taught us some stuff. You shall be missed.
I noticed that the collectors collect all the rods that are attached to the same creation at once. You welded the car to your base, so it counted as one whole creation and took all the material sticks that were welded directly. The ones left were disconnected after some got removed, so they didn't get collected.
You can always have the roller pop up 1 block to make sure it catches them, whenever the sensor goes off. One piston on either end, a block, then the roller-bar. Pops up and activates the roller when triggered.
You can boss proof it by lining the blocks holding the sensors with the warehouse keys. Also, worst case scenario is needing more layers of wheels behind the first layer. But most likely you will need to have a sensor set up higher than 3 blocks over the wheels, as the boss body\head is roughly 5 above the ground and 4 blocks behind their front legs when they run.
At 20:50 its a block stacking glich and you can make infinite scrap wood by placing 1 scrap wood in a rock mountain not the top but it should work if u do this on the side... i saw durf's vid that this glich exist🤯 i was impressed!!!
you probably already considered this, but before you test any trap on a boss bot in a raid, you should probably test it on one in the wild, where the stakes don't involve losing part of your base. you also might need to increase the depth of the bounce floor, as I am not sure if it is large enough for the boss bots. overall a great video. on a more hypothetical level of suggestion, if the wheels seem to be consistently sending bots a set distance at some point, that could be an opportunity to put a row of wheels to launch them into the air away from your base, as they would then be moving in the needed direction for that to work. not sure if the consistency or the physics for this idea exist, but if so, then it would be hilarious
I binge-played American Truck Simulator this afternoon. Just in my small Kenworth with the biggest engine, the best transmission and the shortest frame with giant fuel tanks, moving like a bullet-truck and overtaking everything at top speed and dodging traffic along the drive from New Mexico to California while towing a 110 thousand pound CAT behind me. That was sketch AF, like for real XD Edit: I was listening to Gnome Power, the 1 hour remix, on loop.
I think you might be having a problem with stacked delay, so the wheels weren't spinning soon enough. On your scale model, you had a small mass, and the sensor was directly connected to the engine, so it spun up quickly and there was no gap between sensing and spinning up. On the larger test, you had a large mass (which you somewhat fixed later), and the sensor was connected through an OR gate, so it took time to spin up, and the sensor had to activate the OR gate, which then had to activate the motor, adding more delay. Normally not enough delay to be noticeable, but when you've only got a fraction of a second to spin the wheels up before they get over them, it would be noticeable. By raising the wheels, you increased the time they were on the wheels by adding a slope, which mitigated the sensor delay. (Don't quote me on this, this is my best guess based on how other games handle this sort of thing)
Was screaming at the top of my lung that he should raise it up a block. 😂 But kept on watching hoping he might raise it up, and Scrapman didn't failed me. 😂 Good job Scrapman. 😂
maybe its better if you put the wheel near at walls and put the sensor on the wall it will be come RAMP , BOUNCE FLOOR, WHEEL Rather than RAMP WHEEL BOUNCE FLOOR so that you can still use the bounce floor and the wheel will be just activate if the hay bots will be near at walls
Could also automate defences more by setting up a sweeping saw/drill arm. One button press and it pops out and runs along the over hang above bouncy castle and hits the ragdalls
(1) The wood (and stone and all 'resource sticks') does despawn, remember when survival just released and people lost vehicles because resource stick despawning deleted their entire vehicle? Resource sticks still despawn, just a lot slower then they used to before that fix (and no longer deleting what they are attached too) (2) There is a small version of that orange ramp aswell (also on the big warehouse roofs, at either top of bottom of those ramps) you could maybe use that to have the floor go 'down' a bit, towards the wheels (put them back to their original elevation)? that way the bots should make contact with the wheels much better/they should get flung back more reliably? (while at the same time the floor will be level/they will be able to walk onto them easy like before, and as a plus they will have a hard time trying to hit the tires)
I’m the last episode, I think the reason that the farmbots were flying backwards instead of up, was because you had it so close to the ground, it was going on top, instead of the side. (Edit: thus making them go closer to the ground, and take less fall damage. If you move it up a bit you can surely get a one hit kill.)
you might want to put similar wheel traps, but vertical, to keep the occasional bot from getting under the base, use them to kick them towards the middle
It would be rather expensive, but if you had a line of sensors pointing down off the overhang of your castle, you wouldn't have to worry about any bots going to hit them and you could make a truely flawless defense (besides tape bots)
I have an idea for your cow pen: make the outer walls of tier 3 metal (or boss' keys if you are brave enough) so that they are indestructible, and the inner walls of wood trunks so that they do not disappear.
For the one wheel that doesn’t work because of the sensors not going that far put a sensor on the wall where that one tire doesn’t work and it will make that tire work so there’s absolute no way that can get through
Could use the wheel thing to make almost a pinball maze for the bots, also you could try sending them up with that wheel trap into an over hang with more wheels to send them out or more up. Also multiple controller to fixed axel of wheels might work too as a leave on
Why don't you make veggie burgers in the cookbot? They fully refill and heal you. You can also take them into warehouses to heal and refill quickly. This is as inventory slot efficent as carrying bananas and milk but you heal as a bonus.
LIKE SO SCRAPMAN CAN SEE MM idea for Trailmakers: two people build cars and two people build bombers.Both the cars try to make it to a certain area while the bombers drop bombs the cars can also have guns on them to defend.They can switch vehicles for each round.
only thing i can think of to make it a tad more compact is to have sensors back to back and then because it will be a 2x2 with the tier 3 metal holder you could use a warehouse key to protect it from potential boss bots

Just in my small Kenworth with the biggest engine, the best transmission and the shortest frame with giant fuel tanks, moving like a bullet-truck and overtaking everything at top speed and dodging traffic along the drive from New Mexico to California while towing a 110 thousand pound CAT behind me. That was sketch AF, like for real XD
Edit: I was listening to Gnome Power, the 1 hour remix, on loop.
I think you might be having a problem with stacked delay, so the wheels weren't spinning soon enough.
On your scale model, you had a small mass, and the sensor was directly connected to the engine, so it spun up quickly and there was no gap between sensing and spinning up.
On the larger test, you had a large mass (which you somewhat fixed later), and the sensor was connected through an OR gate, so it took time to spin up, and the sensor had to activate the OR gate, which then had to activate the motor, adding more delay. Normally not enough delay to be noticeable, but when you've only got a fraction of a second to spin the wheels up before they get over them, it would be noticeable.
By raising the wheels, you increased the time they were on the wheels by adding a slope, which mitigated the sensor delay. (Don't quote me on this, this is my best guess based on how other games handle this sort of thing)
13:00 (they ask you are music)3seconds later (close to epic music)
Hank: waves at ScrapMan during raid
ScrapMan: now this is an avengers level threat
Real name for episode. Destroying my vehicles
move the sensors forward a bit and set an X second timer, so if the sensor triggers the engine will run + 5 seconds
Was screaming at the top of my lung that he should raise it up a block. 😂 But kept on watching hoping he might raise it up, and Scrapman didn't failed me. 😂 Good job Scrapman. 😂
Same ool
Thanks for all the uploads. It helps with my depression.
maybe its better if you put the wheel near at walls and put the sensor on the wall it will be come RAMP , BOUNCE FLOOR, WHEEL Rather than RAMP WHEEL BOUNCE FLOOR so that you can still use the bounce floor and the wheel will be just activate if the hay bots will be near at walls
Could also automate defences more by setting up a sweeping saw/drill arm. One button press and it pops out and runs along the over hang above bouncy castle and hits the ragdalls
6:00 perfection
Put keys around the sensors, they also have a low profile
(1) The wood (and stone and all 'resource sticks') does despawn, remember when survival just released and people lost vehicles because resource stick despawning deleted their entire vehicle? Resource sticks still despawn, just a lot slower then they used to before that fix (and no longer deleting what they are attached too)
(2) There is a small version of that orange ramp aswell (also on the big warehouse roofs, at either top of bottom of those ramps) you could maybe use that to have the floor go 'down' a bit, towards the wheels (put them back to their original elevation)? that way the bots should make contact with the wheels much better/they should get flung back more reliably? (while at the same time the floor will be level/they will be able to walk onto them easy like before, and as a plus they will have a hard time trying to hit the tires)
if you need sensors, you could use the castle top front pointing down, but you could just put engine inside the castle and switch with same as bouncy
You can sprint across a 4 block gap so im sure they can, too. Try leaving a 2 block gap after the tire and that could help.
make a plane that drops a boat that drops a sub that drops a car or you can change the sequence
I’m the last episode, I think the reason that the farmbots were flying backwards instead of up, was because you had it so close to the ground, it was going on top, instead of the side. (Edit: thus making them go closer to the ground, and take less fall damage. If you move it up a bit you can surely get a one hit kill.)
you might want to put similar wheel traps, but vertical, to keep the occasional bot from getting under the base, use them to kick them towards the middle
21:34 Tip If you are running on the wheels it will punch on to the Side off the Ramp
It would be rather expensive, but if you had a line of sensors pointing down off the overhang of your castle, you wouldn't have to worry about any bots going to hit them and you could make a truely flawless defense (besides tape bots)
Multiplayer Monday Challenge: Revisit the NO WHEELS race, but combine it with FRANKIN-CAR in teams of two. One builds the front, one builds the back.
26:12
Scrapman: what is he doing?
Me: dancing that's what
I have an idea for your cow pen: make the outer walls of tier 3 metal (or boss' keys if you are brave enough) so that they are indestructible, and the inner walls of wood trunks so that they do not disappear.
It only needs to be t2 concrete, it’s easy to make and the bots can’t break it.
For the one wheel that doesn’t work because of the sensors not going that far put a sensor on the wall where that one tire doesn’t work and it will make that tire work so there’s absolute no way that can get through
Could use the wheel thing to make almost a pinball maze for the bots, also you could try sending them up with that wheel trap into an over hang with more wheels to send them out or more up. Also multiple controller to fixed axel of wheels might work too as a leave on
That machine is insane
BIG BRAIN IDEA put the sensors under the wheels the only downside is that it will require a lot of sensors
Why don't you make veggie burgers in the cookbot? They fully refill and heal you. You can also take them into warehouses to heal and refill quickly. This is as inventory slot efficent as carrying bananas and milk but you heal as a bonus.
LIKE SO SCRAPMAN CAN SEE
MM idea for Trailmakers: two people build cars and two people build bombers.Both the cars try to make it to a certain area while the bombers drop bombs the cars can also have guns on them to defend.They can switch vehicles for each round.
YES! OMG SO PERFECT!!!!
Tire wall should throw the bots onto the jump pad thing. That would be epic.
only thing i can think of to make it a tad more compact is to have sensors back to back and then because it will be a 2x2 with the tier 3 metal holder you could use a warehouse key to protect it from potential boss bots
