Local Railgun Expert here, You’ve made a decent Railgun! Only problem i see is 1, not zero drag glitching the projectile. And 2, the projectile itself. Gyros make for the best projectile in my testing (yes, gyros) They are heavy on their own right, and add stabilization just by existing. Though, Gyro Projectiles do work better the longer they are. Usually you’ll want to make it the entire length of the barrel. Weight blocks are simply TOO heavy, and deny that precious acceleration that’s so important for a good projectile. Now make a Railgun that shoots a plane
This is a nice build but since there aren't any rails this is a Coilgun. Coilguns do have a barrel which acts similar to a rail but in a Railgun there are two actual rails that are connected to either the projectile or a armature/sabot that has electric current flowing through it. This launches the projectile through Lorentz force while Coilguns like this use multiple magnets that fire in series to oppose the magnetic field of the projectile which repels it. For some reason no one on RUclips gets this right though so I don't blame you.
I know it’s not really a railgun, but the community for this game refers to anything using magnets to propel a projectile as a railgun, so I just go with that.
Indeed. Railguns in this game are more similar to coil guns, however due to their simplicity in this game (and more importantly, Railgun sounds cooler) they are simply called railguns.
I don't play the game myself except a few times but i do know that power cores explode when they get destroyed. maybe use 2 space thrusters as projectile.
Honestly, I think having disposable launch skids would be a reasonable thing to add for your heavier planes, just so you can get speed faster on takeoff. Then you can eject them when airborne, and boom, no drag issues. Edit: What if you staggered each layer of magnets by 0.01 seconds? I think that's how real world railguns work as well, by activating the accelerators in sequence.
would be cool if you tried making your strongest rail gun, firstly by making it on the ground not on a plane, with a longer barrel and drag glitching the projectile as well, so that way you can prob infinitely accelerate the projectile making it really strong
Make a railgun that hurls a wad of tnt(depends on how bug you consider a wad) and just a railgun, no plane, just gun, and make it to where you can aim it
You could build like a floating platform to put you Targets in the air. that way the ground is not in the way when you test your flying contraptions. 😊❤
It’s the diving bell if you want to be inside it, just for the simplicity of the shape. It’s just a ball. Now if you want damage alone, it’s definitely going to be the car seat for its neigh invulnerability to kinetic damage.

@@Zane12ai you’re late (just joking)
Wouldn't it be explosive rounds too?
hey railgun expert, how do you fix the projectile simply ignoring the magnets trying to push it?
He finally did it,
the expert is proud of him 🥲
@@crazybird199I always am.
_GUYS HE ACTUALLY MADE SOMETHING MORE EFFECTIVE_
:O impossible
The phasing through is actually interesting, would be cool maybe as an "Armour piercing" round.
Alright where's our local railgun expert at?
I’m sure he is on his way
Hello there
@@Zane12ai NO WAY

@@Zane12ai”simply sounds cooler” is the best reason for anything, and that’s why we call piston acceleration a piston railgun too
Okay, hear me out, railgun that shoots bombbays
I love your videos man! ❤ You have so much potential it could blow up!!
20:02 watch this with captions on 😂
Where is the local railgun expert
I had the same thought
I’m sure he’ll be here soon
@@logictive it would be rather ironic if he didn't lol
Hello there.
@@Zane12ai it's the man himself
I LOVE LOGICTIVE MY GUY
Nice vid
By the Way, your voice sounds *_alot_* better! :D

The highest projectile speed you can get with just magnets is around Mach 2. Stupidly fast, but very inconsistent at such speeds
@@Zane12ai i wonder if adding tail fins to the projectile or adding some sort of stabilization would help?
@@DatYellowDude it was a zero drag glitched diving bell, it’s just the speed. The projectile is 100% Zero Drag glitched.
Dawg who let this man strap StoneHenge to a plane 😭😭😭
Can you try makeing a explosiv pumpkin railgun for halloween
Next railgun idea: make an explosive projectile break the sound barrier
YES i told you this would be good (compared to the other ones LOL)
now make one with 2 projectiles that are connected by hinges or something
Try build a railgun that shoots the seat you're sitting in
That is very possible.
Make a railgun that hurls a wad of tnt(depends on how bug you consider a wad) and just a railgun, no plane, just gun, and make it to where you can aim it
Bro is actually making something without explosives now💀
Now put it on a 5th generation stealth fighter with forward variable geometry swept wings and 3 dimensional thrust vectoring
lets hope this pleases the railgun expert in the comments......
It didn’t. I was however, impressed.
You could build like a floating platform to put you Targets in the air.
that way the ground is not in the way when you test your flying contraptions.
😊❤
I'm in the thick of it...
Everybody knows
Totally should've painted it like a blimp from bloons tower defense
You should attach dynamite to the end of it
You should make the plane faster so it adds momentum to the projectile.
Add dynamite to the end of it to make it extra explosive
Make a parachute plane
Love the content
why not put a camera on the projectile as well as having a reticle?
also i feel that having some gyros in the plane would help stabilise it
You should make a working jetpack for Will
I wonder when you will make a video, seeing which seat is the best as a projectile.
It’s the diving bell if you want to be inside it, just for the simplicity of the shape. It’s just a ball. Now if you want damage alone, it’s definitely going to be the car seat for its neigh invulnerability to kinetic damage.
@Zane12ai I mean strictly as a projectile. Without being in it. Also, obviously, the car seat would be best with its durability.
@@Zane12aiso if im correct car seat has the worst durability but has like the best kinectic defense
@mick2171 correct. Scrapman made a video about it I belive.
Could you build a plane that has a button that just turns it into scrap mid air
I made a flak railgun
it fires a 4 2x2 blocks with a bunch of power couplings attached
result is giant flak
what if you make a supersonic railgun ammo
That is surprisingly difficult to do, as the only way to test the speed is to use a seat. And seats, as it turns out, are a pain to work with
You should put a cone on the end of the bullet. 🤔
Still no dancing alien😭
Chezbumger
Still waiting for glide bomb
where
is
he
Somewhere around here
What if u make a guy with a parachute that can go in a bag that's ur next vid challenge
Hey Logictive do you mind me being this early ?
Ps. I really wanne play trailmakers with you
How do you multi select things on pc
Hold CTRL while clicking or dragging
@@logictive thanks always wondered how but never got answers
Hey…. That aint on rails…
