    TBH I like watching you learn and experiment with concepts you were previously not knowledgeable about. You usually figure it out, but when you don't, you don't beat yourself up over it. It sets a good example for others for how to educate yourself.
    EDIT: This video is the perfect example of this too, you didn't break the sound barrier last week, but rather than give up, you did some research reading the comments, added to your knowledge, and look what happened this week!

    I watch a bunch of actual engineers who retired from those careers to become full time youtubers/twitch streamers... and their schtick is 'look how stupid I am'. It's refreshing to watch someone who actually works to learn and improve themselves and not just clown around for the luls. You learn the limits of a game's physics and apply them, you learn practical world mechanics at the same time. It's just... nice.

      I agree with this. The actual engineers joking around about how dumb they are just got old fast. It is nice to see some one trying to learn and get better instead. I have learned a lot from watching people like Scrapman and Kan with games like this because they actually try and figure it out instead of just make jokes about how bad they are at the game.

  • @BeefIngot
    @BeefIngot Месяц назад +87

    I've made sound barrier breakers with electric only and gas only. For the gas, clusters of 6 engines on 8 length axle is good and compact. For electric, all of the motors in a line is good and compact.
    For the gas I used a 9 speed gear box using 2 3 speed shifters. One leading to a planetary gear -> medium gear -> planetary gear -> medium gear -> planetary gear -> medium gear setup, and the other being a more typical small to medium, gear corner to gear corner (they act as sort of a medium small inbetween the small and medium gears), then medium to small.
    That setup has the planetary gear stage give 3 sections for the other gear stage to operate within for more gradual shifting.
    For the electric, a few planetary gear boxes in a row is all you need. I didn't even bother with gear switching for them.
    The biggest point of contention is getting your engines to have enough torque at the speed where you are super sonic. For this, for gas cars, you want manual gear switching on (As you want to shift once acceleration starts to dwindle as opposed to redline like the game does when in auto mode), but for all of them, the biggest thing you can do, as mentioned, is reduce that frontal cross section. You want to be a small as possible since there aren't really any aerodynamic parts that help that much more than whatever you naturally design, so reducing the area is very important. Long and slim wins.
    That being said, the deco winglet can actually help frontally and in some other cases, as if you have a flat section that it is covering, it will decrease your air resistance. Sure it adds weight, but weight matters far less in this fight against air friction.
    As for horsepower requirements, Im sure a more carefully designed frontal area could lead to needing less, with less air resistance, but I have found that you want around 1300 horsepower to be sure you can actually reach super sonic in a timely manner, and this is even for relatively small frontal area builds. For reference, thats 4 gas engine clusters of 6 as described before for instance. Less can work but it'll take forever.
    Note: You can use different wheels to adjust your top speed slightly. The racing wheels small and medium have surprisingly little difference wind resistance wise, so you can switch between those 2. Indeed, if you used either here, your 3 gear setup would have lead to a super sonic theoretical top speed.
    Lastly, wind resistance is only calculated when you turn it off and on again.

    I really love your mad scientist videos where you see "what is possible through experimentation". Those are always my favorite episodes on the channel, followed by survival LPs, then followed by hide-and-seek.
    The experiment stuff I like because there's structure to it. A challenge. A goal and a puzzle. To me, all that together makes it intricate. Seeing all the small improvements or setbacks you make through the ups and downs, I can't help but relate it to that feeling I got when watching Yugioh when I was 7. Yeah, you knew he was gonna win the duel. But you were still on the edge of your seat to see "how he ends up doing it". That's the feeling your "experimentation" videos bring out in me as an adult in life. That, and there is an odd visual-asmr or r/oddlysatisfying factor to it, especially with the sound barrier videos. Somewhere between zoning-out yet still hyper focused on the details. Number-go-up.

      this is how I managed to break the sound barrier. A wide vehicle with two propellers that can get me to more than mach1 but it is very unstable and to get started, you need to very shortly tap the acceleration, otherwise it will just fly off. When you finally manage to get it to ~300km/h and gets stable, you can hit it and go beyond mach1 but I couldn't make it stable past ~1800km/h. With engines, I tried a monstrosity with a tower of engines (like 35) and could barely get to 750km/h in first gear. Tried to get it more aerodynamic by putting wedges and pieces to "split" the air but apparently the game doesn't care, it slows you down anyway. Building a long, skinny spaghetti vehicle seems to be the way.

I had 4 of them in a clockwise position and counterclockwise for the other one, both connected at the same motor shaft. Without any gears, it will barely give any push so you may need 4-5 planetary gears, to increase the speed. The more you have, the higher the thrust but it gets more difficult to control, add some fins, wider chassis, big wheels and it starts to look like a plane...but with wheels.

    The reason I like watching you do Screwdrivers or Trail makers or any other custom design building this thing to see what happens is it gives me ideas on how to build stuff as a base line then see what I can come up with to try to make it smoother or take the bones and flesh it out a bit more in my own way, but the basics are there as a good grounding point. You are really good at explaining your thought processes and showing how X can generate Y. Just also like seeing you mess around in free play and then take your designs to the tracks in the campaign to either pass with gold or fail miserably and go back to the deigning or re-designing of the build.

    12:35 perfect moment to use only one wheel with a singular motorcycle suspension for superior aerodynamics

  • @davidrobin8700
    @davidrobin8700 Месяц назад +1

    If you wanted to know how the aerodynamics work:
    1. Each block has their own wind resistance engines tile < flat block tile (This is why you had the weird connector issue where with the connector it had a lower resistance.)
    2. Because of #1, slanted blocks are the most preferred
    3. It only accounts for the very first blocks in the front that are hit.
    4. Because of #3, adding a slanted block where the wind wouldn't have been hit makes it worse. (Normally even if it means that you have a slanted block where it wasn't before. Creation of tiles for air resistance is almost always bad)
    5. After every block check the aerodynamics. The menu does not refresh on its own. Many times it seems that things should be better when they aren't, or vice versa.
    These are things I've noticed through experimentation! Hope this is helpful

    • @davidrobin8700
      @davidrobin8700 Месяц назад

      @@tasty3363 It only decreases if it is in front of something with a higher wind resistance. If the connector was .5, placed in front of something with 1, only the .5 would count. connectors aren't the least resistant though, and the situation in the video could be further optimized with slanted tiles. He found a very extreme case

    If you wanna lock in your place on the leaderboard in the supersonic map, on that central road next to the main spawn there's a speed trap. Run down that central road and keep dead straight. If you are absolutely perfect with it, if you go 4 or 5 circles right, and remain dead straight, you should be in line to pass by the speed trap again. If you bind your air controls to your number pad, this allows a smooth and accurate transition. If all of these factors play together perfectly, you can get a supersonic record on the speed trap. I personally hold somewhere below 450th place and trying to climb to top 100.

    Hey scrapman! Here are a few areas where you could improve or tricks you could use to improve : gear shifters haev actually 3 inputs, as well as motorcycle suspension: it automatically combines all the holes in it into the output bit, can be useful trick. Also making your vehicle shorter can be beneficial : this game seems to make an actual airflow simulation to determine aerodynamics, so leaving empty spaces, holes, and such can deteriorate your drag coefficient (for instance that 3 wide connector in the front fills a 3 wide hole, that catches a lot of air and makes it a solid wall. Now a wall isn't very aerodynamic but it's better than a scoop), and if you look at your top gear shifter you have a lot of room (which you can manage to delete) between the tip of the shifter piece and the first small gear, and between the back of it and the output gears : reducing that space makes your vehicle more compact, smoother overall and therefore less draggy and faster. Also there is a bug, the corner gears can only be on the same plane OR perpendicular, never both. Or parallel but not in the same direction (i.e. you can't make an L shape with corner gears on the same plane, only I and - shapes)
