I also created a few scenes that show some unusual properties of Algodoo lasers. If you want to see them, click the "Search" tab above and search on the word "Laser" and my username "Xray". You will see a bunch of scenes that might interest you!
I noticed that those critters have two unusual properties in common: 1. Very low mass (0.005 Kg) and 2. Infinite friction. When I edit those values to be more reasonable (mass = 0.5 Kg, and 0.5 friction) they then behave more like "normal" Algodoo objects.
Why do you make a new comment for every sentence? When you do that it clutters up other people's comment section (like mine) with a long string of single-sentence comments! That makes you look like someone who has nothing better to do than to write as many comments as you can. Suggestion: THINK about what you want to talk about and after you know what you want to say, then say it all in ONE multi-sentence comment. After entering a comment and you think of something else you want to say, then EDIT your existing comment instead of adding another single-sentence comment. In other words, make your comments like you see how I make MY comments. All of my thoughts in ONE SINGLE comment block.
I began learning about Algodoo probably before you were born!
Well, I don't know that for sure because I don't know how old you are. Anyway, I started here on Algobox back in 2012 and then I became the Admin some time in 2014. So, I had lots of time to learn things about it.
Algodoo is a 2D physics simulation app, so in order to make an object appear to be moving in 3D we have to do some tricks. We can easily make things move up and down and left and right and also in a circular motion within the x and y planes. So, in order to make an object appear to move or rotate in a third plane (z) we have to fake it by making the object larger and smaller as it would appear when moving away from the viewer and toward the viewer. I have done that with a few of my own scenes with somewhat limited success. If you would like to see some of them search on words like "3D" or "Ball" or "Box" with my username "Xray". I did one scene about a year ago with a rotating ceiling fan. It does look 3D but it was done with an animation, so I guess you can say I cheated just a bit!
There is no one on Algobox with the username "gelbibros".
By the way, "Camp" scenes are not allowed on Algobox. I already warned you about that not too long ago. So, forget about making Camp scenes or athletes for other people's camp scenes. If I have to say this to you again, you will risk being banned. I hope you won't make that happen.
I see how you did it. Any object that has its collision layer "J" checked gets attracted to the word "NORTH" because it has a high attraction value! I placed a box in the scene, and as soon as I checked the layer "J", the box flew right over to the word NORTH and stuck to it!
Uh @Jopjop610 --- I don't care how many camp scenes are around the world. They are not allowed on Algobox. What is it about the Algobox rules that you fail to understand?
@LAK_loves_ALGODOO -- Nobody is making you download this scene. If it causes lag on your device then DON'T download it and don't look at it! It's that simple!
The magazine states "10 cartridges" but I count 12 in there! Also, the cartridges are alternating directions.... Forward, backward, forward, backward, etc! Was that a mistake?
Suggestion: Please don't presume that everyone knows how to load and operate your firearms! Most are unusual to say the least! People would appreciate it if you wrote some basic instructions for how to load ammo, how to operate any safeties, and how to fire the gun. You can list the instructions in the scene description or in the scene.
I found this on a YouTube Shorts video about optical illusions.
This scene is a type of (static... No physics) scene that I very rarely do, but because it was such an interesting illusion I wanted to share it with the Algodoo community.
a_bored_coder -- Yup. About a week ago I convinced my wife that I was seeing human faces in the middle of some flower pattern on our living room curtains. Now she's mad at me for telling her that because that's all she sees now when looking at those curtains!
Smelli -- I don't know who it's supposed to be. It's just a head of some guy with long hair. That could be any one of thousands of men (and maybe even some women! )
Yes, I also see the face in the thumbnail. I think it's because the image is much smaller so your brain doesn't "see" those girls drinking coffee which is at a much finer detail than the overall image of the face.
I'm no expert, but I recall watching an interesting documentary on TV about the brain, and how the section of the brain called the "fusiform gyrus" determines if you are seeing a face or not. At times it makes mistakes such as when my wife and I see faces in our living room curtains!
levithelegendary -- DANGA is right about this scene causing a lot of computer lag. As a suggestion, you really don't need 144 lasers to make an interesting refraction effect. I got good results by removing 100 of them and then I stretched out the remaining ones and increased the beam size of each laser. The resulting refraction pattern actually looked really nice! Try it!
