For those who don't know... A Stephenson valve gear mechanism was widely used on steam engines that powered early railroad trains, factories, and most other things that were powered by steam engines during the Industrial revolution.
That's correct, BlueJay! Some people try to skirt around the rules by substituting other words that replace "voting" such as "Who do you
think will be the winner?". We are not stupid, so that will be treated exactly like a request for votes.
Only one flaw: After firing all seven rounds, the slide assembly stays open as it should, but if the safety is engaged while in that condition, something becomes damaged (maybe a spring or a lever?). Try it as I described above and you will understand what I'm saying.
Yeah, I was using win-7 until a couple of years ago when my wife upgraded her computer from win-8 to win-10. I didn't want to listen to her bragging "My computer is better than your computer!" and so I upgraded my computer to win-10 PLUS I got a lot more RAM which was needed to support the upgrade. Now I can brag that I have more RAM than she has! LOL
For those of us "older people" who don't know how NumberBlocks work, I suggest that you include a label over each block that shows the block's numeric value. Without labels, they look like nothing but a bunch of random colored squares and rectangles.
Note: This is just a suggestion. You don't have to do that if you don't want to.
Age means nothing! You either care about the things that you do or you don't. It's that simple. Most people here on Algobox DO care about the quality of their work and they are proud of the things that they make, especially when they spend a lot of time and effort on them.
I would have guessed that your IQ was lot higher than 110. Many of your "technical" scenes are quite impressive, and when you announced in a comment that you were a young teen (If I recall, you said you are 15?) that blew my mind! I thought you were much older than that.
I don't think anyone loves Algodoo explosions more than I do!
So, nice job overall. There's a LOT of code in there!
I have just a couple of things to comment on that I noticed:
1. When I click on the Script-1 "Click Me" yellow symbol, it makes an implosion rather than an explosion. Is it supposed to do that?
2. Script 3 AND Script 3.5 "Click Me" yellow symbols seem to do the exact same type of explosion. Aren't they supposed to be different? Or is it just me who's missing something?
NG as used in the name: Natalie Grayson is not a digraph. For NG to be a digraph letter pair it would have to be used in words such as "bring" or "song".
BTW - I'm not an expert in the English language. I just happen to know a few things.
Step 1. Be at least 18 years old.
Step 2. Be articulate, mature, and reasonably intelligent.
Step 3. Show an interest in Algodoo by posting well designed and interesting scenes that YOU have made.
Step 4. A current mod or someone from Algoryx (the company that owns Algodoo and Algobox) must choose and approve you for that position.
