About Trailmakers:
In the toughest motoring expedition in the universe, you and your friends will build your own vehicles to cross a dangerous wasteland. Explore, crash horribly, use your wits to build a better rig, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find on your way.
Welcome to the Ultimate Expedition!
Journey over grueling mountains, hazardous swamps, and bone-dry deserts on a distant world far from civilization - it is just you, your fellow adventurers and the amazing, jet-powered hover-buggy you built yourself. Explore, crash your vehicle, build a better one, and get as far as you can with whatever spare parts you find along your way.
Trailmakers is about building very awesome vehicles and machines, but you don’t need an engineering degree to get started. The intuitive builder will get you going in no time. Everything you build is made from physical building blocks. Each block has unique features like shape, weight and functionality. They can be broken off, refitted and used to build something new. Individually the blocks are fairly simple, but combined the possibilities are endless.
Expedition Mode is the challenging campaign mode of Trailmakers. You are competing in an off-world rally expedition with only a few building blocks to get you started. You must build, tinker with and rebuild your machine to progress. Journey through a big world, overcome deep gorges, angry wildlife and dangerous weather to progress and find new parts that will juice up your machine. The world in Expedition Mode will test your survival skills and ingenuity.
Sandbox Mode is where you want to head for an unrestricted, sandbox, vehicle-building experience. Here you can build anything you can dream of, and play around with it in the world of Trailmakers. It is a great place to test out crazy machines, and experiment with the physics engine. With tons of different blocks, hinges, thrusters and interactive vehicle parts - the skybox is the limit.
Trailmakers is even more fun if you play it with other people. Build cool vehicles and compete in mini-game modes with your friends or other Trailmakers online. Build a helicopter, send it to your friend, and shoot them out of the sky. Put two seats on a tank, and let your friend control the turret. As we get further in Early Access development Expedition Mode will also be adapted to multiplayer.

Scrapman: HOW MANY TAIL PROPELLERS TO BREAK THE SOUND BARRIER?
All of them are built different
It's such a scrappy mcscrap man thing tho
agreed
I imagine them all in a call when this was said 😂
Hater
waited for the Ski, to see if aerodynamics are stronger than ground friction.
If you have trailmakers, you can test it
@@cheetahman515"🤓" pfp
Bro, i was yelling at my screen for skis for what felt like hours
I just tested it, and it's not worth it, however, I did find that putting 2 flat connectors at the bottom to act as contact surface helps significantly, not enough to do it with 3 tail propellers, but it significantly lowers ground friction without affecting aerodynamics.
Irl physics suggests that adding more drag would easily outweigh it because drag is speed dependent, while friction is constant.
IT'S POSSIBLE WITH THREE!
With skis!
If you lift your gokart seat one block, put 2 skis there, and put two skis behind the tail propellers, so, not under it, you get the friction reduction from the skis without extra drag!
It worked with the dragon thrusters, then I bought the dlc just to try this out with the tail propellers.
Also, instead of the skis, with a hoverblock, gyro stabilisers and powered tailfins😁
Still no 2 propeller.
Yeah for sure! I tested that and almost got even with 2
Ya I almost got 2 to work as well like he dismissed skis so quickly like he tried everything thing else
Not scrapman pushing the top front wedges fowards instead of just rotating them so that they push sideways lmao
This legitimately irked me lol
He could’ve put a connecter instead of moving the sideways wedges forward
Just swap the two top center wedges while they are sideways. And keep the others sideways. Also, he left seat controls on which pushes the nose down.
@@nicholiserasmus9028he disabled seat controls at some point and it didn't do anything
@@ZedDevStuff didn't see that..... Interesting.
These types of theory-testing experiments got me wondering (if possible) how many space blasters you'd have to line up in a row (and adjust timings) to get a visually continuous "laser beam".
real
yes
LOL
Not sure if you’ve thought of this or not: but you have mentioned how you start in the middle of the map, right? -So by starting at a wall as you sometimes do, you get twice the distance, yes? -but have you realized that the map is a square? If you start in a corner at a 45 degree angle, you will have even more traveling distance available to you going a diagonal NE to SW (C) than you do horizontal E to W (A) / vertical N to S (B) as a result. You’re basically turning the square into a right triangle. A^2 + B^2 = C^2, you know. If you ever need those few extra seconds, corner-to-corner is how you can get that! You could literally revisit your “if I only had a few more seconds” builds now and get your “what if?”!
I'm pretty sure he knows that and has tried it before when he needed more space to accelerate. This time the top speed was reached or sound barrier broken before he hit the wall so there was no need to go corner to corner.
Dawg im pretty sure he knows
Up
Bro, give this person their credit for being so smart. You all didn't even know about all this
He did this before actually. This time it just didn't really matter to him.
I know acceleration does not mean higher max speed but what if the propellers are reversed? Also he should have tried the skis anyways just to see if 3 is achievable
I think you have the wrong idea there.
It's easier to slow down , because the drag also slows you down..
Drag and friction lol
Nah, slowing down was only faster because it's easier to slow down than it is to speed up
i did that, works pretty fine with gyros
2470 kph = Mach 2
cool
I want my membership back I'm so upset... I was a member for like two years and change and stupid medical expenses came up and now I'm paying that instead of memberships on multiple channels I love such as this one.
@@DETHdressedInREDZamn
Always love a breaking the sound barrier video!
agreed it is quite fun to test the limits of the game
A sound barrier challenge where you must use one of every propulsion block.
Considering how strong some of the recent ones are, and how many different ones there are, I feel like that wouldn't be too hard
That's so easy
idk if it was him or one of his friends but its been done i think
a single rocket engine could probably get everything past the sound barrier without any help from the rest of the propulsion blocks.
Once you added a jet engine or a large rocket engine i'm pretty sure it would reach it
The ski hitbox actually extends below the block it's on so you can easily use it without worrying about reduced aerodynamics.
Thanks! I was able to do it with 3 using this info.
@@sixfthree Epic man! That was my prediction to the total needed too.
Aerodynamics on the back of things actually does have a notable impact in Trailmakers, it's usually worth slapping some wedges on the back of things
I’ve only noticed this in water..
He tried that. It didn't help. It's kn the video
He already tried that no?
Lovely job with the lifting test. During the beta I tested it with mods for precise values and ended up on 142.85 kg. Given that the game display rounds that up to 142.9 and you got there is quite nice
Idea: Make a Plane capable of post stall maneuvers without using gyros
OR Make a plane that is stable and doesn’t spin out of control without using vertical tail fins and use logic to stabilize it
TBH that's pretty possible with the tail props maybe he'll see this
I actually modified a quite interesting design, a Delta Wing Aircraft with canards, but also additional horizontal stabilizers at the back and slats on the wings like the Mirage III's have.
@@BlockyCraft-oo6ji I have a plane with toggle-able canards and thrust vectoring. I put both on a toggle cus I don’t wanna do insane acrobatic nonsense all the time.
@@CAN-025 I think it would be interesting WITHOUT them. More of a challenge.
@@Axolotl_1215I'm currently working on thrust vectoring, it takes longer than expected because I also want a stylish VTOL mode integrated. I'm going for a combination of the Harrier and Yak-141 VTOL design.
Sound barrier videos are what I live for
It would be cool to do a battle where everyone starts a fresh campaign and they have an hour to collect as many parts as possible, then you do a battle only using the components you founds.
That sounds really good!
A helpful easy tip for these test. Instead of going side to side, go corner to corner in a diagonal line, you'll have more room
Things that could make it better: friction reduction: Skies, make the wedge touching the ground go up to make the frictionprofile slightly smaller. I think you were onto something with making the craft lighter to the ground, aerodynamics on angles combined with seatsteering could possibly work. What if you placed a flatconnector on every corner on the botten? Would that be enough to lift up the belly of the craft from the ground? Could you have used accessories as skies since they dont have any aerodynamics? Or possibly have a detachable set of wheels to help you accelerate faster in the beguining? Additionally if that isnt enough you could hold it in place at the start and let the engines ramp up before detaching it from the ground.
Starting at the very corner of the map on a 45 degrees would also give you a tiny bit more room… What happens if you put the propellers at (-1.00) speed? Since pistons have a faster maxspeed at (-100) than 100.
There is always room for improvements.
You should do a a battle but you have to be able to exceed the sound barrier
Scrapman: "Here's how much thrust this propeller has."
Scrapman: "I dont know how this helps me."
THE PUN AND THE STOP HAS ME DYING
1:20
im very happy to come back and see that your still doing good years later, you made my childhood great and now im almost an adult(yikes, kinda scary), thanks a lot scrapman, keep up the good work :)
Yes I've been waiting for an update to add new modes of transportation so I can watch you break the sound barrier with them one of my favorite videos I'm going to play the game but it's cool seeing all the unique ways people have to come up with to break the sound barrier with only a single type of propulsion.
bro i love scrapman's content it is always entertaining and fun to watch, keep up the great work.(btw i am subscribed)
I was so confident on the aerodynamics
Also scrapman: literally has slopes pushing air directly into his vehicle
thank you for these, I appreciate the thought processes in dialing in the most effective aerodynamic builds... (still wish we could use these for underwater subs)
"you cant make propeller crafts go mach 2"
scrapman for absolutely no reason: hold my power drill (get it? cuz its in the intro?)
new update comes out and scrapmans just doing scrapman stuff and that is... NEW BLOCK?!?!? MUST BREAK SOUND BARRIER
friction rn: bro please fix me
scrapman: *doesnt even remember about friction on the ground*
Focusing the center of mass above the center of thrust could cause the thrust to provide a slight torsional force around the center of mass that would try to lift the front, but less than the flipped wedges did. Even a slight upward angle should pretty significantly reduce friction with that amount of thrust/speed.
I very much like your thinking! But sadly it doesn’t work, I’ve tried putting the seat behind the thrusters and added skis aswell but could only reach 1190km/h, however I have found a way to do it with 3, you just got to add a gimbal jet to the centre but I don’t know if it’s considered fair by what scrapman uses
@@TodayTheFlash Thanks for testing it and giving the nice response. I didn't personally test it with this build so I didn't really know if it would work or not, but I feel like I have observed some changes in automatic pitching depending on the vertical placement of the center of mass in relation to the center of thrust on a jet I made, but regardless of whether or not it is actually accounted for in the game, there are far more variables to keep track of with a jet that moves through the air instead of along the ground. A gyro that stabilizes it to angle slightly upward should also do the trick, but like you said with the gimbal jet, it might be considered cheating by scrapman's standards when testing these things.
I love your videos. It’s been my dream to play with your scrap man.
It is a little cheaty but, if you were to replace the aerodynamic wedges and replace some with 4x1 and 2x1 flat connectors. Then fill the blocks in behind the with gridblocks would the flat connector make the gridblocks aerodynamics equal 0. If it works it would kinda be cheating the system but I think in the name of science it should be tested. Thank for your time Srcapman as well as the enjoyment you have brought me over the last 4 years.
I honestly came into this video expecting 5-10 to be needed to break the sound barrier. I may not have been completely spot on, but I am glad I was in general ballpark.
I would have liked to see you try skis regardless, just to confirm. They have really helped in some of your other creation test videos.
I freaking love the sound barrier vids.
After watching your melee only dog fighting video and seeing your power coupling strategy, I had the idea of a jousting challenge using the couplings due to their destructive power ability to absorb kinetic energy. You could do it with cars or planes but a submarine one would definitely be interesting.
I can't escape this video, it constantly showes up everywhere, tf.
Scrap man do not stop with your puns I love them almost as much as I love you and I laugh so hard because of your puns is not even PUNNY 😂😂 so I want you to continue your puns
Great vid scrap 🎉🎉
You know it’s gonna be a good day when scrap man is in the testing map.
I think the thrust that doesn't have power ratings are ones that gradually build up speed where the ones with a rating just have an instant flat speed.
I love these videos for some reason lol
hey, u can fit hover pads and a gyro stabalizer to remove friction on the ground behind the propellers
i tested it, actually can do 3 scrap. only took 6 hover pads lol, but completely glitchless (AFAIK)
It's probably been suggested already, but what if you used 2 lift slopes in the front and 2 in back to generate lift in both the front and back? This might make the flight more stable for just long enough to allow the sound barrier to be broken before losing control.
Side view diagram: (very rudimentary)
[Aslope][...B..][p][p][p]
[Aslope][Seat][p][p][p][B]
[Lslope][Seat][p][p][p][Lslope]
Aslope = sideways aerodynamic slope
Lslope = lift slope
P = Propeller
B = block
Seat = seat
Can't belive you didn't try adding skies or wheels as you did that every other time.
Last time he removed the wheels because it was just as efficient without them, and the creation was pretty much touching the ground with aerodynamics. Although the skis would have been cool to test
Yes, last time he didn't use wheels at the end (space thrusters)@@Dragoneer17 but afterwards he tested it with jet turbines again and with wheels they were faster.
Ofc it is still possible he tested it prior to making the vid.
you could remove two of the pieces on the sides, i think. but also, do the fans have the best or second best, i wasn't paying attention to the particular shade of green, but i was wondering if it would change anything if you had the fans go first?
This guy is never Gonna run out of ideas of hè continues like this (autocorrect was Tryna type never gonna give you up bruh)
Hey, Something I don't think I've ever seen outside of a few workshop hunts is the idea of a corkscrew aircraft.
But jet propelled
I sure hope this is going to be free to use, having access to this is a game changer.
Expreiment/buildchallenge videos to the win!
1:05ish... I've long wondered why the Propellers keep their Power Ratings cloaked in Fog of War and never let us be able to compare them to the Thrusters to better determine which would be better when, how, and why... :(
End of Vid: It can be creepy at times how ya can drive/fly forwards along the Test Zone and have your Camera Angle sideways to it and the Lines on the ground flying by can make ya look as if ya are crabbing sideways instead of goin forward... XD
I'm wondering if you use a light seat, one fan in front and two in the back because of the great aerodynamics of the propeller itself. Should work better I would guess
Buddy forgets he’s battling so many more forces other then aerodynamics
913 kmh is the exact point when it starts to gain lift when he tests it at 16:30
Tail Propellers can also be used instead of gimbals in cars for maximum downforce. They weight way more and have more power. The only issue is that these are quiet huge.
13:25 You could rotate them so they make a v. also, you have an extra small grid block that while yes, will barely affect it, it still will slow it down
Maybe rotating the lowest wedges in the front upwards (and cancelling out the lift with downwards wedges at the top) would reduce ground friction enough to be able to do it with three
had a idea can you use power couplers to make some type of whip that could possibly break the sound barrier?
PLEASE try making battle swamp boats with this propeller
Me waiting for Scrap to try it in the water since he mentioned it once:👁️👄👁️
I’ve been a fan for a while and your the reason I play trailmakers, I’m not a fan of Catarinth (it’s not cause it’s bad, I just don’t like rock.)
Hey scrapman, did you try to break the sound barrier with only aerodynamics pieces and gravity? You should see how much weight it need to break the sound barrier
For the wedges on the front, you could reduce the number of pieces by having two triangles next to each other.
\/\/
Instead of
\\// which doesnt attach
That was trippy, it looked like you were going sideways on the first speed test
Me: ad skis!!!
Scrapman: more fans!!!
Day 9 or 10 of staying up until 4:00am to watch the latest scrap man video as soon as it comes out. Great video as always, keep up the great work😁
Was one of my favorite numbers though, and also what the Universe told Dorlingus, remember?
You could try breaking the sound barrier using hover pads with the tail propellers in order to eliminate friction
I love a good dad joke.
Skies would lower the friction, which means more speed right? Even when it adds more weight or more drag?
If putting 1 in the gimbal jet makes it go upwards and -1 makes it go downward just put in √-1 to make it go forward😊
Welp if I get the rescue pack I’m making a quad Vertibird
I’d love to see this series but how slowly you could go with the most engines, but also trying to have as few power cores as possible ( excluding the engines ), so you can’t use any quantum rudders or engines facing the other way, all of your engines have to be facing the same way and you can’t use any non engine power cores.
Skis wouldve taken the friction area down quite a bit, considering the entire bottom of the craft was scraping along the ground 💀💀
I feel like those grid blocks have some sort of effect on the aerodynamics, it was slightly worse every time you put the grid blocks on.
Could you build a plane using only wedges for the lift? Keep up the good videos:)
He needs to do an episode where he tries to break the sound barrier with flapping helicopter wings.
One phrase: Try to add skis and upside down 4x1 wedge. Counter on top with 4x1 normal wedge. Probably will work.
Since we know the connector bars don't add aerodynamics (or at least they appear not to) could you add wheels in-line with the vehicle so that it's cross sectional area won't change but you'd reduce ground friction?
he's asking the real questions
You need to add aerodynamic pieces in the back it actually affects the drag in game, you can also put the flat connectors under the vehicle to reduce friction
Now you should try to see how few power cores hare needed to break the sound barrier
I really want to see you speed glitch that now
He should have flipped the trailing edges, they were causing so much friction, but it didn’t actually go TOO much slower! Imagine the speed difference!
You should use wedges to make your build lighter, but since what a moment you did forget about gyro stabilizers? You also had some extra space for them ontop seat and behind creation. And someone also mentioned about skis under seat (while not ruining profile), by combining all of that, you may evene beat with 2 tail propellers imo. At the same moment, this is not cheating or bug, cause this is the part of game ^_^
Hi from Portugal:)
I wonder if hover pads could help, it adds a lot of air resistance but it also completely nullifies friction
"wait a second"
"weight a second"
"the tail props weigh as much as a large jet?"
"Geddit?"
Editor: pls stop
what if you put flat connectors on the bottom to reduce the contact with ground?
Thats honestly impressive considering you are not using 0-drag glitch
Nice 👍
The way skis lose all friction is because the have a tiny thin layer of air so adding aerodynamics wouldn’t drag on the ground
Issac newton of teailmakers.
Scrap man : light?no fans big fans BIGGER FANS.MUHAHAHAHA(Metal Guitar playing in the background )
you did not try ski's because there is friction on the ground so even tho they affect the aerodynamics they might help for speed.
It’s funny because in real life propellers can’t physically break the sound barrier without using gravity to assist it. That’s because when you get to the sound barrier the blades on the propeller stall out and you end up with no thrust. So in theory with a heavy enough aircraft and a strong enough engine you could break the sound barrier in a dive. You need a strong engine to hit the physical limit of the propeller and a heavy aircraft to counteract drag on the dive.
Idea: Make a plane with only the tail propellers with 50 blocks
3:00 locking my bet in now, I'm gonna Guess six propellers to break the sound barrier.
WEEEEELLLLLL I was way off lol. Usually I'm generally close but uh... Nope. Considering I've never used those blocks before though...
The top wedges can attach in the center without an extra block
I love that block
With how short you can make that and still have a break the sound barrier you should try and make an airplane that goes at the speed of the sound barrier but it's like fully controllable I feel like it would be a fun challenge
