I was going to comment something like this. He missed the test of multiple sites of impact AKA multiple simultaneous impacts. It'll be probably the same, but do the forces compound together or do they act separately. Also, he needs to sandwich a building with shockwaves because that'll send the debris to space.
Lol I was thinking a simple large symmetrical cube with multiple legs for impact n just drop it from high up buuut yea carpet bombing just sounds cooler n u can never go wrong with some carpet bombing xD
@@Silverwing2112 I mean, all you need is a carbonized rod with thermal shielding and a few maneuvering thrusters for a decaying orbit. Super wasteful at our point in space colonization, but with less resource scarcity it would be pretty cost-effective compared to bombs and stuff like that
Oh yeah, if the damage of the shockwave was based around energy, not a set amount (or whatever it currently is) the destruction would be a Lot more realistic, which I’m pretty sure is what the game is going for.
Oh that's cool. I have a few ideas on how to take this to the next level. 1. Jackhammer: Velocity and contact area seem to be more important than how much weight is behind it (inertia), so small impactor of one or a few blocks hitting the ground repeatedly at high speed should be quite effective. 2. Shockwave-railgun-thing: You have a line of impactors pointed at a building and you fire them in series from furthest to closest to the building in rapid succession and maybe each one contributes to the shockwave of the last one resulting in one large shockwave? 3. Shockwave-vortex-thing: Like #2 but in a ring instead of a line, encircle a building and then fire them in rapid succession around it. I'm a simple man, I see something cool I can't help but think 'Ok what if that but MORE?' ;)
I think the shockwave is based on the speed at which an object hits the ground and not mass/inertia so we're going to need something more powerful than gravity to accelerate the impactors.
@@stevepittman3770 this could be the case, however, in my experiments with the mass manipulator in the sandbox, you can create massive shockwaves with the lightest touch on the ground
I think maybe you already reached the maximum shockwave size and strength so it doesn't feel like its increasing. If that's the case than I would love if the devs could increase the maximum or make an item that can.
You know what would be cool? Something like a big mech like in those boss battles in old video games, that would pound the ground with its fists... also keep up the good work!
if there is a shockwave on the building. there might be to the contraption itself. and its that is the case, you can do a clapping robot that generate shockwave :)
The missile style one reminds me of Rods from God. A proposed weapon platform satellite, that launched massive tungsten rods from orbit. The resulting shockwave was pitched to have the force of a nuclear weapon, with the added bonus of no nuclear fallout. But, it most likely would have roughly the same force of a MOAB. The true benefits of the weapon platform would be the inability to stop one of the rods post fire, because it's just a solid metal rod.
The aerial based doom missile is actually a concept that could exist in real life! They're called "Rods from God." Basically, 20ft (6m) long, 1ft (0.3m) diameter tungsten rods dropped from orbit. They can reach five times the speed of sound (Or even double that) and impact with the force of an ICBM (Inter-continental Ballistic Missile) but getting that much weight into space wouldn't be cheap. Edit: with a 6m by .3m cylinder having the volume of roughly 424115 cubic centimeters and tungsten weighing in at 19.3 grams per CC, that would weigh 8185419.5 grams. That's 8185.4195 kg (18045.7609 lbs)! With $10,000 per-pound, that would cost $180,457,609 to send ONE into space! That's not even counting the infrastructure required to launch it.
The concept of dropping a heavy object from (effectively) space has existed in media for a while, with a few notable examples being Rods from god, KEM strike (CoD Ghosts), and a kinetic bombardment projectile.
So impact with other objects create shockwaves? So like a GCOD would be possible? (GCOD: Gigantic Clapper of DOOM!) Also, do dead drops differ from mechanically/rocket assisted drops?
Why the notification is late and the shockwave are cool keep it up i really like those videos i hope you made another one and the song you made are cool
Maybe the shock wave mechanics are based on a contact of surface so maybe if you have a big heavy plate with some balloons then dropped it it would make a bigger shock wave or a small one like the one you made
You should try the rocket approach but with a big flat area for the impact. I feel like the bigger surface area impacting makes a bigger shockwave because the shockwave might start at the edge of the impact area.
1:00 Fun fact: that is an actual concept of the US military. They're called 'rods from god' and are just massive tungsten darts in a satellite. They were deemed impractical though iirc since tungsten isn't neccessarily the cheapest metal
Now what needs to be tested. If the shockwaves come from contact with anything, what if you make a huge clapping contraption, or even a super fast punching robot
Since it seems there is a limit to the shockwave that it can create, technically you could make a piston that hits the ground repeatedly with a really heavy object. Kinda like a jackhammer in essence but one that indirectly destroys buildings :3
LOL my first thought was a jackhammer, but I like how your mind works. Also makes me wonder if we could make something like a railgun that fires a bunch of hammers in series to make either a larger shockwave or lots of shockwave-fronts stacked on top of each other..
Make a wheel with a piston on it with a weight on the end of it, spin the wheel crazy fast just above ground and then extend the piston for maximum speed. Can probably be scaled up to make it really heavy. Or a catapult that doesn't actually catapult but instead slams its cargo straight into the floor.
Did you notice that the back of the hammer was making bigger shockwaves? I think there's a point of impact type of physics instead of weight. That being the smaller the impact point, the bigger the shockwave.
Here's a great idea. Make your missile longer, take out the weights and flatten the nose. Then just have a bunch of free floating steel balls inside with a block of space. Then when it hits, it makes multiple shockwaves through the missile.
Hey Scrapman, nice vid ! Maybe you could try to make a multiple shockwave device using bearings and a central thrust point : 1) Flat 0-0-0-0-0 2) Thrust down the ground with only the middle part with thrust 0 0 \ / 0 0 \ / 0 3) The center hit the ground first, then the second layer, then the 3rd layer 0 0 \ / 0 0 \ / 0 0 0 \ / 0--0--0 0--0--0--0--0
Scrapman... it has become absolutely imperative. The game Warframe has these robots called Tusk thumpers. You should recreate one in iod to see just how destructive they would be.
Day 70 of Asking scrapman to make a Machine that make that uses the steal balls and magnets to make the steal ball orbit around your creation with out any thing touching them and try to take out a building with it in instruments of destruction
Scrapman, you would look up the rods of heaven concept. Or was it rods of god... Anyhow if I remember correctly it was basically titanium rods dropped from or it with no thrust.
I think if you had multiple points to make contact you could create more damage. since you've reached maximum blast power you could try and create more blasts
Give me one good reason why this man doesn’t have 1,000,000 subs already, you guys need to subscribe. I mean it’s free and it helps my favourite RUclipsr I’ve ever seen.
Pointy things are good for penetration, not so much for causing shockwaves. What's the biggest shockwave you can think off? Right, a massive object hitting another massive object. You should try to just make a huge boulder with rockets on them and send it next to the buildings. I think that would really cause a huge shockwave!
Idea for a multiplayer monday like the rock hide and seek make box cars that can retract into a box or car and add a bunch of decoys everywhere as well

What if you dropped a whole bunch of heavy objects down like carpet bombing, since the shockwaves only get so big. Might as well have more.
Yes, it would be soo cool

Shame that it doesnt grow larger and larger depending on speed. Would love to see the HUGE shockwave that we all expected
If it would grow larger and larger,a weapon that is based on the concept of " rods from god" would be a perfect weapon with no down sides

I really want to see a walker that makes shockwaves every time it takes a step. Sounds like it would be very satisfying to walk next to the buildings.
Great idea, an at-at design would be cool
"There's actually minimal collateral damage all things considered." As basically half of the left building is carved out and is still falling apart 😂

This game always seems to get amazing updates that add tons of fun to it
Fun fact: Ultra Heavy blocks can have their mass tuned upwards of 3500 per block.
I think the shockwave is based on the speed at which an object hits the ground and not mass/inertia so we're going to need something more powerful than gravity to accelerate the impactors.
@@stevepittman3770 this could be the case, however, in my experiments with the mass manipulator in the sandbox, you can create massive shockwaves with the lightest touch on the ground
You should try creating a machine that claps to create shockwaves since they probally can be produced between the vehicle itself too!
That would be kind of like cymbals, then, real instruments of destruction.
@@tonbokarasu2973 more like the hulk clap, dude claps so hard it breaks the sound barrier with just the shockwaves

4:25 that rubber duck sound was perfect for that moment!
Love watching the rocket drop into the building then just dive into the distance
I want to see something that hammers the ground very rapidly, repeatedly, at maximum shockwave power
Aka a jackhammer
This game still never ceases to amaze me!
Scrapman I got a really cool idea. Jack hammer or something that pounds the ground real fast. Imagine rapid fire shockwaves
You know what would be cool? Something like a big mech like in those boss battles in old video games, that would pound the ground with its fists... also keep up the good work!
The spike test shows you: It's not the length of the spike it's how you use it.

Would it be possible for a clap to produce shockwaves too?
Maybe more surface area hitting the ground = more shockwaves?
The back of the hammer was making bigger shockwaves with less surface area hitting the ground.
Can't wait to listen to your next song! Also looking forward ro actually seeing you play the 🎸 and stuff!
@5:30 you should create some leverage advantage with some fancy mechanics to increase your rotation speed.
Fun idea make hands that clap into a sockwave great idea but it might not work
If the effect happens when it hits your own creation you should build a drum or a gong to make an “instrument” of destruction
You know someones gunna make a machine that creates max lvl shockwaves with a fraction of a second between each shockwave
This feature reminds me of the "Rods from god" or Kinetic bombardment weapon concepts from 2003

Hear me out, hulk clap. If you can create a shockwave by hitting yourself, you can double the speed by having both hands moving.
Also, double shockwave
I would love to see you use instruments of destruction. For clarity instruments as in drum, guitar,etc.
Try to make a monkey cymbal toy, but make it destructive using the shockwave system!

When you pause there is a setting that allows you to adjust the power of the impacts. I had a lot of fun messing around with it.
would clappers work because the shockwave triggered on the building and on the ground
Who would have thought that you would be able to knock down buildings with the shockwaves
That is just, logical
If it can make Shockwaves on buildings can it make them on creations as well? You could make a clapping machine then and destroy stuff like Hulk.
You should call these weapons the Tenderizer and the Stinger.
Scrapman: marginally stronger than the hammer
Meanwhile the building collapsing behind him
Hell yeah. I missed IoD

1:00 Fun fact: that is an actual concept of the US military. They're called 'rods from god' and are just massive tungsten darts in a satellite. They were deemed impractical though iirc since tungsten isn't neccessarily the cheapest metal
It is realistic that building feel the Shockwave before the visual since sound travels fast as hell through solids
Now what needs to be tested. If the shockwaves come from contact with anything, what if you make a huge clapping contraption, or even a super fast punching robot
Day 1 of asking Scrapman to play Volcanoids with the Heavy Machinery update
Since it seems there is a limit to the shockwave that it can create, technically you could make a piston that hits the ground repeatedly with a really heavy object. Kinda like a jackhammer in essence but one that indirectly destroys buildings :3
Is it just the ground that has the shockwaves, or if you were to make two hands that clap together would it do the same?
Oh man, you could make the COOLEST Big O mech with this.
Make something like drums that will hit something on your vehicle
