Algodoo

LOL, I hit the clay-pidgeon thing on my first try! I guess I'm just lucky

Why did this make me laugh slightly?

I've had a fascination with planes in algodoo for a long time. Mainly because there's no real definite way of building them. With a car you just have an engine and wheels, and it'll work. But planes are harder due to the crappy air physics in algodoo, which means you can't simply build airfoils to generate lift, and there's no z axis so you can't build a propeller either (this looks like it does, but it's an illusion ) For lift I used K wings and for power I used one of my own engines coupled to a density thruster. (Both are by Kilinich, big thanks to him )

Sorry for the wall of text, I have an obsession with airplanes...

Also there's an easter egg, did you find it?

I thought someone would rate lol.... Not blaming you, you don't have to if you don't feel like it. Now all those marble race and Algicosathlon bastards pushed my beautiful airplane off the "new" page...

Talk about copy paste?

Algobot is nice, but the scale is stolen.

I'm not sure why, but the algobot sort of reminds me of this.

That scale is totally stolen, and he didn't even steal it correctly! The scale doesn't change color on my comp

EDIT: Made another one, it's here. I think it's legal...

Y U POST 500 POINTLESS COMENTS!?

Since I've played with Phun for a LONG time (since like 2008, when it first came out) I'm coming up on my 7th anniversary! Not sure if Phun counts though, but they're basically the same game with a different name

xD I forgot to check on this... I've been too busy with my other airplane (and another monobike, and a tank, and yet another airplane, and... yeah I've got too many projects going at the moment )

@The Linkage - You've built planes? I wanna see them, there aren't a lot of (good) planes on Algobox!

@INH - I tried that, it worked! Thanks

Dude. It's 99.9% stolen. All you did was make the platform bigger and the springs stronger, but it wasn't made to support so much more weight or run at 60hz, so it behaves all glitchy. They even use the exact same variables! If you wanted to make this contest more professionally you would've built your own instead of blatantly stealing someone else's. Only people without a life do that.

Yeah, Ultragamer ***attempted*** to steal it.

sonic go boom

INH - Didn't notice that. Thanks.

Xray - Welcome to the life of a high school freshman.... (next year!)

Not bad, 1000 nm @ 165 rad/s, 220 hp. And only 88kg! Nice

but no one will ever be more bored than me.

Maybe I could use this to annoy my sister...

Like 3000nm @ 40 rad/s, 160hp

Then I measured weight. 810 kg...

Then I looked at sim.frequency... 200.

Then I considered stability...

810kg is too heavy for a car, I can get 160hp from 90kg spawn engine

This might work in a big truck (or tank or maybe even train) though! (with increased power)

But really, you should try at 100 or 120z, anything above is cheating IMO...

Yeah, everyone needs to start somewhere

My first collide engines were actually decent, my FIRST ever one was 360kg and had 240hp and 4 cylinders. It's on my 2nd or 3rd page I think.

You should make the egg burnable. Otherwuse I like it.

This is.... strangely cool. Nice job!

That's... really weird! I've never seen water do that....

The Linkage - I knew you would do that

eanayayo - Half of these can be explained by bad driving, such as you are shifting to early and the engine stalls, you need to get it past 800rpms like the info in scene says ! But the suspension is realistic, because it will simply bottom out and the car will hit the ground. Normal cars do that too, they usually don't have limiters either. And also gearbox has clutch because real cars have that too.

No, faytree, that would be pnmvsvs.... xD

It actually came from this one time my friend misspelled the word "push" while we were texting one time. I liked it, so I used it for a lot of usernames on various forums and stuff

As far as I know, it doesn't stand for anything. Unless my friend is Illuminati.

Well, shift up at 800 rpm because past then, the engine has less power. You can't build an engine that can run well at 300rpm because it will be unstable (at least me, I like my engines to run fast). But I get the limiter thing. I'll try that out.

And how the hell do your do your clutches anyway? I do them like Vaidas369 and I like his way of doing it.

7500nm @ 125 rad/s, 1250 hp

That's a really great power output for a negative-damping spring engine, they're normally fast but not much torque. That's why I prefer changing target-length/constant because it generally has better torque. For an example see this.

Maybe you should do it again then

I knew I wish what you were talking about... xD

But, well you have a real car, with the clutch pedal, and when you push it then it cuts power from the engine to the wheels so you can then shift gear. OK, technically this is unnecessary in Algodoo because you don't need a clutch to shift gear but I like my cars to be partly-realistic. That's what I aim for, not just having it go fast and work well. Because in real life you need a clutch or else you will damage your gearbox, and i wanted this to be sort of like a real car (not completely, because all of the other stuff you mentioned ).

I DID NOT REPLY TO XRAY'S COMMENT!
