    This was super fun to watch!!
    A couple tips!!
    1) Even tho the larger suspension felt too long, if you put it on a low strength setting, it could help you to maintain better ground contact in those rough spots. Your wheels will be able to drop really far into crevices.
    2) Your roll bars are making you top heavy. Notice how the example truck is all wood on top. If you keep your base concrete, but make all of your aesthetic design choices out of a light material, you’ll resist flipping backwards on inclines.
    Great video as always!! Can’t wait to see the 3rd rock crawler challenge!!

      Ya, it would keep one wheel from falling in the hole. but that would also mean that wheel would lust be making no contact with anything.

    Thanks for playing again! Only one suggestion I have for potentially improving your vehicle is using extruded metal instead of tier 1 metal, this may help prevent you from toppling over with your center of mass lower to the ground. Good vehicle overall!
    Once again thanks for playing!

    The mini rock crawling moster trucker thingy :D turned out great! But you know what could turn out greater? This MM idea!
    Day 125 of asking for a Multiplayer Monday in survival mode where everyone starts at the crashed ship with a craftbot in the mechanic station. Everyone has 30 minutes to build a vehicle from scratch, gathering their own materials. No glitches, thrusters allowed, after which everyone meets up and races their builds

    Little típ, I'm into rc rock crawlers and what we do most of the time with 4ws is put it in a separate channel so you can control them separately, the same would apply to scrap mechanic put the rear steering in 2 buttons so you can control it separately and you can crab walk turning the same way both in the front and the back, or even sometimes only turn with the rear and leave the front straight, helps a lot for positioning yourself and in tight turns. Also try to disable the return to center on steering and lower the speed on the steering in the bearing menu so you are more precise and you don't have to be tapping when doing a big radius turn, you can do the same on rear button steering with controllers set on a loop on 1 degree increments

  • @outandabout259
    @outandabout259 Год назад +7

    I recomend using solid axles. They are harder to make, there are some interesting issues to design around, but once you get them to work your rock crawler will blow your mind. I got mine to have 90 degrees of flex between front and rear axles and that makes many impossible things feasible.

  • @the_Acaman
    @the_Acaman Год назад

    tip for rock crawlers:
    have the wheels sit even lower than the chassis creating a big gap between them. That way there is less chance a big rock will make your vehicle get stuck. It might seem counter intuitive to have the center of mass higher, but it works. Play with your materials and see what works best

  • @35manning
    @35manning Год назад

    What you need is independent rear steering. A controller, button and bearings for left turn, a second set for right turn.
    You can use logic to automate the steering for four wheel steering, but primarily you just use the two buttons to steer the rear wheels manually when you need to.
    It will let you turn the front wheels, the rear wheels or all wheels and will let you crab walk sideways if you need to.

  • @prozacchiwawa

    Now I wanna see you repeating all of these rock crawling challenges you've made so far in first person.
    Maybe make this a multiplayer monday with four players in two teams where one drives the car and another works as a spotter. You've never made even remotely similar before, so it would be awesome to have!

  • @AlexMVW10
    @AlexMVW10 Год назад

    one idea I had that came to mind is some kind of shiftable weight, to add a heavy block low in your vehicle to keep the center of mass down, but make it shiftable, so in those situations that your hanging off to one side, you can shift the weight to compensate making it much much much harder to fully tip over. actually implementing it would be hard but if done right it could be a lifesaver on really tough spots

    • @Pystro
      @Pystro Год назад +1

      All it would take is a weight on a steering bearing. You would limit yourself to only shift in the direction that you steer in, but that's what you want in _most_ situations. (Similar to how the back wheels working in tandem with the front steering is _usually_ what you want.) The biggest engineering challenge with a counterweight is to get the weight part of it low enough that you don't end up lifting your center of mass too much. Maybe you could use the whole center portion between the wheels as the shifting weight.

  • @aniexety8102

    Small thing I noticed that might improve your quality of life in future games: using your mouse to adjust steering degrees can be difficult and finicky- you can also use the scroll wheel!
