@@georges2773 absolute stonks right there!
thank you so much!!! you saved me 15 minutes. you have my eternal gratitude.
Amazing video! The information given here is extremely valuable and I know I'll be referencing it often!
Be sure to check my pinned comment for Timestamps ;D
if we ever get a paint tool block we can track specific targets by using it on our orient block
use this with the orient block to track certain trackers steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1826679028&searchtext=
Hi moonbo
Me too
holy crap this has SO MUCH MULTIPLAYER POTENTIAL
Very informative video as always. I have so many ideas now. You guys are making Scrap Mechanic worth playing!
i did use the orient block on some build but thanks to that video, i learned all possible option, thank you so mutch Durf
I didn’t know about the tracker, thats so cool!
These videos are amazing, keep it going!!
You dont know how much i waited this video.
Thank you so much! This video is incredible, especially considering the lack of info on scrap mechanic overall
you went SO OVERBOARD with the Orient Block!!!!! xD
duude, its the best thing i`ve seen!
It’s a beautiful video i am french and i am a noob on orientation bloc but tris vidéo is a revelation for me on modpack
🤗
I just realized, the music in combination with the in depth descriptions makes this seem exactly like a driving school video (but much better)
oh god! I haven't played Scrap Mechanic for a year and THIS IS BLOWING MY MIND NOW
Its a mod btw (just in case)
@@Jamesdavey358 oh really? never thought that video called "Modpack" is about mods
Yeah ik haha
Just didnt want you to get let down if u thort it was vanilla
Because about a yeat ago on a different game (kerbal space program) i watched a modded vid and thought it was vanilla, because it had no mention of mods and i was really let down because i found out that it was a mod. Also i realise that it is really easy to download mods on scrap mechanic, but on some games (like kerbal space program) it is not
These honestly need to be standard features in the game.
Makes me want to build creations that track and stay within proximity. Or fly to locations.
Cool!
Hi! I recently have gotten into scrap mechanic and mods within it and have decided to learn The Modpack and it’s features! I just started the orientation block and have made successful turrets thanks to the video! However sometimes they just break and don’t do what they are meant to after I don’t change from one Orientation setting to another, is there any way to fix this or is it a bug? Also I’ve tried making a car that follows a player but I can’t figure out how to do it and it’d be awesome if you could tell me how to do it!
Nice
WAIT A SECOND! UPDATE THIS TO SURVIVAL ASAP! I WANT AUTOMATIC TURRETS :O
pls
nice
Nice vid
Thanks!
Is it also possible to target specific coordinates with the Orient Block?
Durf, You are master! How much time did you created your Durf modpack?, about one year? It is fantastic!! :)
| : Awesome-vid. : ok so what is the color-coding for the speed-reading?|
I think it would be cool to have timecodes for each different block/feature
in regaurds to the part with the orientation block ..
i did everything you did to the letter and it doesnt work for some reason.. I created it on new worlds and exsisting .. even to the dimensions and placements to did it .. and still nothing, so either the mod pack isnt working right or I missed something ? dont get me wrong i like trial and error but im no idiot when it comes to making an exsact copy .. the colors were done correct the connections and the settings you did i copied also, but still my creation just rotates because of the bearings connected to the electric motor.. any help would be great as im completely lost is what i may of missed.
Wow, I think the mod pack has better auto tracking than the intellagenta mod!
Hey, I think math block is broken with new level based engines. It looks like it only outputs full values making them extremely wiggly. No problem with old engines tho
Yeah same.. all my tank with mouse aim dont work anymore
Yes it's still broken. I can't do anything with the orientation block.
@@Michael-cz3xm I think that I figured out that it works with some modded engines that use the old code (from before you could level up stuff). Try some engines from new legend mod.
Can you track a place in a world using coordinates and an orient block? I might have missed something but I can't make it work if it's a feature :(
is there a mod with bearings that work like normal bearings but output their instantaneous rotation? I need something like that to make better logic-controlled smart engine walkers.
Can you make something for the Orient Block to lead targets, I’m trying to make an AI for my AA guns.
Edit: I forgot but the the Orient Block the function for an “effective” range could it also apply to spudguns or modded guns so the only fire when they have a target? Thanks.
Hey Durf! Is the orientation-block working correctly? I have use it before and when I follow your instructions, it just will not track anything. Much-love for your hard-work on these mods!
The problem with scrap mechanic I have is the lack of information what specific blocks do. I wish there is a wiki with all the information you have listed in this video
Cool
how do you choose a custom value for the x o meter?
I don't understand why, but the orientation block doesn't work properly for me. When I am in the driver's seat, the camera does not take into account the turn of the vehicle, as a result, I look to the east, at the moment when the camera will look somewhere to the side. At the same time, I play the same assembly with my friend in a co-op and the same block works adequately for him. Can your mod access some libraries that might be outdated on my laptop?
P.S. This happens not only with your modification, but with any modification to track the target. An example is the turret AI mod, and the camera control mod. :(
How to i'am instal the mod
Maybe You should add a camera block to the modpack (it will combine the color and proximity sencors).
WOOOOW
Durf, why my game won't save if i place x-o-meter? Is there any solution?
i don't fine the mod on steam, can someone give me the link please ?
Hi there what is the problem in my computer the modpack doesn't launch my game
how did you make the cars follow you ( 12:40 )
I'm trying to make a flying vehicle that hovers above a tracker, but I'm having no success and I don't know what part of the video will cover the information I need.
I am unable to find the mod, how do i get it thanks!
im working on a tank and i tried to make a locking system with the orient block and a tracker, but all the turret does is go sicko mode on my other builds. any help?
You might need to flip a bearing around...best place to get help is our discord, where you can share links and screenshots and stuff
what does letters P and L mean on orient block
i have problems with the orientaticon block thing
" Setting a minimal-distance on the Orient-Block, when you leave the area the bearing just spins. : Doesn't "snap" back to zero. : Especially if you are traveling fast. : No issue when no min or: max-distance is set."
Durf, is there a way to implement a color switch where you have different color switches activate different features so for example the setting for terrain orientation is active by a white switch and i deactivate it and use the red switch to activate camera tracking
Yes, and no.
It is technically possible to implement stuff like that in the orient block; though it would be confusing, require tutorials to explain it all, ask players to memorize colors that's already a bad situation for some mods...just a lot of hassle for something barely worth it.
But even then, it is possible to use multiple orient blocks, each set to their own mode.. then you build a switch with multiplication blocks (you can turn on x1 or turn off x0 - any of the orient block outputs, and how they effect your creation)
It is possible to build the solution in game :D
is there is a block that u can connect an activator(ex switch) to the the block which have an ui by which you can choose a button from ur key board that if pressed it well activate the activator(switch or button) then connect it to the thing that needs to be activated (bearing) then to the seat the will control it by pressing the button on the keyboard if not i hope u add it
srry if it was bad English i am an Egyptian 13 years old and still learning English
Hello. can you tell me what to do if my orientation module is always on the move? how to reduce sensitivity?
I have the same problem, it keeps wobbling. Have you solved the problem
And I thought I knew everything
At what unit is the mass shown? What does this number even mean?
Hey, it is possible to output a value athe W/S or the A/D channel like forthe WASD Thruster you need a WASD or only AD or only WS inputs, but I wanna use only use one WASD Thruster, so can we send values only for WS or AD ? I hope that makes sense
If you look at the thruster, there is a screen which displays the current mode of the thruster
there is a regular WASD mode, so if the thruster is firing to the back, and the screen is facing upwards on the craft, pressing WASD will move the thruster according to THAT orientation of the craft.
There is another mode, where WS is inverted, but AD is normal, and this can be used in the front/back of the craft, to help pitch the craft with WS presses. Since the front would be pushed in the opposite direciton vertically as the back, it would change pitch...but all AD signals are the same for all thrusters.
Similarly, there are WS ONLY and AD ONLY modes too, if you want to separate those controls for your craft.
Keep in mind that these modes are even more useful if you consider the orientation of the thruster itself!!!
for example: WASD thruster in regular WASD mode...normal
in WS inverted mode ? AD is normal, and WS is flipped.
same mode, ws invert, but this time, we place the thruster physically upsidedown (so the screen is downwards now). and all of a sudden, AD is flipped and WS is normal.
So it really depends on how you built with it, and what mode the thruster is in, that will determine what each one does when you press w, a, s, or d each.
I highly recommend just fiddling with it, placing all the thruster modes right side up and upsidedown, hopping in a seat and pressing buttons...it's way better than reading my text 😉
@@ScrapMechanicMods Ok, thanks
Yaay!!!
Would it be possible to make a spud gun (portable and placeable) with controllable knock back
or even with explosive rounds, where you can controll the dimension of the explosion with number input?
for example:
white value = knockback (dealt to targets)
light grey value = recoil
dark gray value = strenght of the explosion ( 0 as standart value, so that the rounds aren´t explosive without number input)
black value = projectile speed and bulletdrop
Not possible without making fully custom projectiles like the cannons in the modpack beta
I'm pretty sure recoil would be too OP if controllable with a number value. Hey, they could add a number controlled spring!
Where i can download this
Doesn't work pls help me
I have follow the instructions STEPS BY STEPS but it goes in every sens pls help me
Ahoj, bude nějaký pokračování nebo přidání do survival modu ?
Question: Does the closest player requirement in the orient block take height into account. If me and a friend are equidistant from the block but I’m a few blocks higher, who is targeted?
Also:Star Wars thing cause Star Wars day
Closest in 3D space. If a straight line from the orient block to the player is shorter than another straight line to another player, the shorter one wins.
Yes, you can consider the orient block taking into account altitude differences.
Is there another way to put player on an exception list? Like anyone seated in is non-targetable?
Yes
Why does my one only rotate one way?
please make a turret on how to make a turret with these
i tried but it dosent work
How can we install it ??
Hey does anyone know how to install mods like x-o meter. Because whenever I search it in scrapmechanicmods website I could only find other mods except x-o meter. Pls does know to do this?
And I love your Videos that's why I subscribed
The modpack
Can please make tutorial where you would show new logic of math block, smart sensor And smart timer I also want to ask what do P and L on orient block mean ( when they are shown) And the last Is can i put tracker frequency on orient block on blacklist
The video that introduces the Math Block already exists! ruclips.net/video/fufv1UeLB5w/видео.html
Be sure to check out all the videos that introduce the new Modpack logic!
Other videos will be made soon to talk about the other new parts! Sorry I'm a bit busy working on more updates, so it's hard for me to have videos out for everything at once!
I will also be doing some logic videos on my Durf channel in the near future - you'd want to check those out since those are actual build examples for a purpose.
Unfortunately, any complicated explanations will have to wait, as we're still working on these new parts! I want these videos to make sense in the future too! So until the parts themselves are actually finished, I can't really make a useful tutorial video.
why does it not work in TEST?
what is name of that mod pack
???
Could you add a brake servo part? It would connect to bearings and it would lock them up upon logic input
You can actually build this with the Smart Engine Controller part
unfortunately I don't have a tutorial on that part yet... and these game updates put a delay on that sort of..
But basically you can use that smart engine on a bearing, and tell it what angle, power, and speed, to set the bearing to (if there is no angle input, then it's just like an engine with positive and negative direction, but it won't care what angle the bearing is at)
So you can make the engine behave like a gas engine or electric engine, depending on the speed/power combo you use
which is set with number logic...which you can use things like math blocks to multiply your power with a switch connected to a seat....
So you can (at the flip of a switch) multiply your bearing strength (and turn on the brakes)
I definitely have to make that video...it'll be a useful one to have...but that's getting into the more advanced number logic usage... if you haven't seen the other number logic vids on this channel, you 100% need to before using smart engine.
@@ScrapMechanicMods Ye, I already figured out how to do it with a logic button, number block and a memory panel (and a keypad/counter to set up the panel), I already built two cars featuring a brake. Not to mention a manual "ignition" done with a key switch and using a "dumb" gas engine for fake engine sound.
I'm working on using S for brake and a manual drive/reverse switch
What is this song i live IT please durf send to me name of it
How to download?
guys can you please tell me why the game crashes when you select the blue piston
Might be a recent game update that broke all the mods again 😩
Not sure if the devs want mods in their game anymore.. 😅
What the download mob?
Wanna try to make evil bots that track people with this
Hi please make a magnet for the player
Hey, i like scrap mechanic and its so much fun to play and build! But one of the worst things in the game ist the bouncing on the ground. Can this be adjusted or removed with a mod? because when a car is driving 150 b/s its bounces so much and its just unrealisty, so can this be removed?
Try increasing the gravity of the vehicle with a gravity modulator or gravity module.
Unfortunately not possible with mods. A nice balance between vehicle weight and suspension can help a lot!
What is the name of this mod?
gud
Is there a way to get the orientation block's target's id or frequency
wdym?
You'll probably want to broadcast the ID with the wireless router.
Or you could build a scanner that searches all IDs and stops at the desired target.
how do i target the furthest away player?
9:37
This applies to all available targets
so just do this in player mode and it will work 😉
x-o-meter on my Scrap is broken, because if i want change mode it's cutted, ex. s y, s x, ity
Can't download anything from the link given. Can anyone tell me why?
Things are a huge mess after the survival update (game updates breaks mods)
Can you make a tracker track onto people with thrusters instead of engines?
Yes, though it would be better to use a Smart Thruster of some kind, so the power values aren't just "on/off", and can do like 2% power thrust if it's just a small turn needed
how about a RPM speedometer were you can attack it t a barring and see how fast its moving
rotation is the same mode, but in degrees per second, instead of 360 degrees per 60 seconds (rpm)
;)
How do you do the thing with the target on it that we see at the start of the video of which the turret target ?
you have to go to his beta website and download the modpack
@@oliverbrandstetter721 ... And you like your own comment. Ok, you are just dumb.
I asked how to do something in the modpack, not to DOWNLOAD the modpack. Isn't it obvious that I already have it, if I need to ask the question ?
@@TrueXiarno sorry i answered the wrong comment. You have to use a tracker on the target.
@@oliverbrandstetter721 So first, by the time, I have figured it out (And even if I didn't, right now, I can't test it since the modpack is broke), second, you are wrong this isn't at all what I asked (Although I agree that I wasn't clear from the start).
i need an automated drone to only shoot when locked onto a target. could anyone help?
I allready tried a couple of soloutions that ended up breaking because of them being extremely complicated and rube goldberg machine like.
nvm I rube goldberg'd it.
If you still need:
you can use the math block to check less than or greater than values for the orient motors. If the orient is turning the guns at value > 0.2 then you know the gun is moving pretty fast. But if it's less than 0.2, then you know the gun is pretty much at it's target, moving slowly.
So a BLACK counter block with 0.2 in it ---> math block LESS THAN
Your orient block (white) ----> math block LESS THAN
That math block will be 1 or 0, telling you when to fire the guns (adjusting the 0.2 in the counter block is the sensitivity)
I'm always interested to check out what other solutions people come up with! Feel free to join the SMM discord if you wanna share your blueprints or something!
@@ScrapMechanicMods i found it a lot simpler to use a 1x1 thruster on a short suspension with a sensor to pickup any movement. I have reduced the mechanisms size to 5x2 even with balancing. Somehow it is still capable of flying.
edit: realised a major mistake in my plan and i am going to try this.
@@ScrapMechanicMods how do i get a value of 0.2?
can it be displayed on a number block?
What exactly does the 'p' mean that some orient-block modes also have?
I tested it today and it means "precise" its much better with it
@@gyrozepelix What does the l mean?
@@dombomb64 not really sure
"Predictive" mode, and advanced usage tutorials will be made after the other parts have their tutorials made first.
Basically, a spudgun turret will try to lead the shot, so the spud hits a moving target = predictive mode P
L is for local mode vs Absolute mode (default)...it's complicated and really makes no difference in most builds...anyway, that's for a future video.
how do i make this fin follows player 12:44
a car that follows me
What about player orient predictive? I want lead on my turret but i don't want it to predict movement. Like how if you consistently move right then it always aims to your right.
i have the same question. and sadly, i have never seen an answer on how predictive mode works
Is the orientation block broken now?
since some recent updates, it might be that the orient block does not work with vanilla engines and seats.
You should still be able to use modpack engine and seat for these purposes. Let me know if you're still having trouble or not
and how do i make my plane fly with camera controls
I made a series of videos on my other channel showing how to use camera controls:
ruclips.net/video/EytidCyU1sQ/видео.html
That playlist has a LOT of information - including camera controlled planes.
My orient block doesnt work
i cant find this mod in this website can anyone give me name?
The newest Modpack downloads are available on this youtube channel!
Look for a modpack playlist, I think the last download was 0.3.5
A new one is coming soon, with more updates!
The player tracker doesnt work for me :(
same
can you make the orient blok shoot inplayer mode
i know its not the ai mod but hey you gotta know
Shoot? Like a spudgun?
You can attach a spudgun onto your orient turret setup to shoot players!
yeah i wasnt in the mood of typing much that time so i messed stuff up
im trying to figure out how to get rpm of the smart engine car i made
useful info i figured out the engine mod i got the v16 goes 244 rpms
hold up WAT electric engines are better then gas? 117 vs 72? WHAT?
-yo im in the GHETTO RATATATAATATATATATA-
when i try to use this my scrap mechanic world loading freezes at like 20%
happens with wing mod too
