I think a more effective version of the mk3 would have one row of the steam cannons on one button, and then the other row on that button + another button so you can go at mk2 speeds normally, and then boost to mk3 speeds when necessary
MK2 Advanced Jet Engine no longer works. I built a test following the video starting at around 2:42 and it's completely unstable. The steam cannons vibrate violently, fly off (even without turning them on), and fly around the surrounding area vibrating all still together like a swarm of metal bees from hell. lol
I just build one from scratch to see what might be wrong with them however they still work for me. I don't know if you included it and it might be barely visible in the video but you need to set the central ballast's mass between the water cannons to a value above 1.00, better 1.20. Then it should be a whole lot more stable. If the central ballast's mass remains at the default 0.50 value it will indeed go nuts. At 3:03 you can see how the ballast's mass gets adjusted.
I didn't know you could do this... Then again, I don't know the difference between a catapult and a trebuchet, and I struggle to build either... I did know that if you set the water cannons facing another block on the build so the water hits it, it pushed the block it hits (and the whole structure with it, including the water cannons)
Casual Bird i would actually like to use them but i guess i‘m just used to flight blocks. Also for VTOL planes i need to use them because pivoting surfaces are not as efficient in slow flight.
Heh, funny story, after making that comment I tried just that, incorporating your engine designs into my existing planes. So far I've been unable to make a successful flying machine with the engines, specifically the Mk2. They are so heavy they overwhelm my current design of landing gear, reducing all ground movement to a very slow crawl I couldn't take off from. And when I did get off the ground by assisted means, the compound engines got me going so fast that the flap mechanisms were overwhelmed and couldn't remain steady. I shall keep trying, because I like how these look much better than having a bunch of individual steam cannons spaced around the aircraft, but I don't know how to handle having so much weight in the very back like that >v
Noice. Most of my planes have either lots of wheels at the back or none, but they also aren't that agile on the ground beacause of the heavy engines. Maybe you could try building a new plane instead of putting the engines on a existing one because that might also help you to adjust the landing gear and the flap mechanisms from the beginning.
I did try making several new flyers from scratch, I couldn't find a way to make the flaps strong enough, doubling up the pistons didn't make the mechanism any stronger. I'll keep seeing what I can do but so far it's not looking good
@@ElFredo1998 thank you! I didn't see that and it fixed my problem. Also, I like your content, I'd love to see more of you. (Another thing, my control C control D to copy paste parameters doesn't work anymore and it's annoying, do you know how to fix that?)

Signed in just to like it. This is bloody awesome.
Goutham Hariharan noice
I wouldn't use the big wing-shaped aerofoils, they barely produce any lift compared to the smaller ones.
(Nice build btw)
Wow! I love the variety and progression of the builds.
You can copy the power value(*4) from shrapnel cannon to steam cannon
Does this bug still work?
Hell yeah it does. I hope that isn't patched, it's incredibly useful!
1 year later and it still works! Also thank you this helped a bunch!
You can also duplicate water canons on top of each other, so you can have 4 water canons on the same block.
@Hamfish 4x the weight too
I love vanilla plane builds in besiege!
I would like to build some planes with you!
DAMN....these things put out some serious thrust
I think a good name for that last "plane" would be Fuujin or Anemoi, after the Japanese/Greek god(s) of wind.
underrated

@@ElFredo1998 You were exactly correct. It works beautifully now. Thanks!
Straight out of star wars.
Me: Yes, this is what I was looking for!
20 minutes later after recreating the machine from the video: I have no idea how to fly this lol
2:40 *Shrekcher: (Building.. I N T E N S I F I E S)*
Now that is what I call podracing
this is totally insane
This is incredible
Interesting way of naming your aircrafts
Recreate the battle of hoth with these things
I've yet to make anything maneuverable enough to fly through the stone arches. That's really impressive.
I love the single mk3 jet
These planes are amazing!
was thinking you were gonna use an actual jet engine powered by steam
obligatory "Now THIS is podracing!"
YOOO WE GOT FIGHTER PLANES NOW BETTT

I love watching videos from before advanced control days. You had to WORK to get the shit you wanted to do
You might be able to make them more compact, and a bit safer, if you use flamethrowers or torches instead of the fire ball thing...
You're a madman!!!
Name planes by clouds good idea
Now you just need to only use pivoting surfaces instead of flight blocks to steer and you have a proper jet ^v^

The vtol shit is fucking insane

Nice! But could you land these monsters?
typhoon 1xMk3 is my favorite.
Me too
whats the song from 2:45 please tell me by name i really need it :(

New to Besiege, how is this "steam poweref?" Water cannon into the fireball = steam propulsion?
heating the water cannon makes it spew steam instead of water
I can finally create the Concorde :D
good idea
So hum when I build either the MK2 or MK3 my thing just explodes.
Help.
Did you increase the mass of the central ballast as in 3:04 for MK2 or 7:01 for MK3? If not adjusted the engine will start to wobble and explode.

@@3-valdiondreemur564 Unfortunately I don't know a solution to that issue.
@@ElFredo1998 I ended up fixing it, for some reason the controls had been replaced by my scroll wheel.
Also, I didn't know you could make steam guns clip through themselves if they were flush like that. This requires more playing around :>

Dear Fred when I try to build the mk3 or the mk2 engine it just spazzes out and breaks could you help me if possible?
Fw 2.0 Have you tried setting the central ballast‘s weight to a value between 1 and 1.5?
Dear Fred I have tried that but unfortunately it still does it
Fw 2.0 Did you use advanced building tools or wheels to offset the water cannons because otherwise i have no clue why it would not work
I downloaded the planes, and wtf dude? your thumbs are on the place of your pointers? I mean, why would the row buttons be page up and page down?
jk lol
It is indeed a weird layout but thats because it is fitted to my laptop’s keyboard.
plz man i really need a mapping of the keyes...i can't get it to fly properly
