Algodoo

If you write sim.limitAngVel = +inf in the console and pray, you can get it to ~285 km/H

Proof

I'll rate 10

Sometimes shells jam the gun. try something like in my FMK (a little circle in the upper left corner of the shell that only collides with the polygon that extracts) and it will work a lot smoother!

It does work quite well. if you want less lag, you can also change the gunpowder's properties instead of spawning another circle and deleting the first one. I'm not sure but I think that if you use too much of this or undo and fire it again too many times it will fill all your ram with crap. (that happened to me before )

Won't fire when it's cocked...?
If you fiddle with the catch a bit more, the dark polygon might move it upwards

Giving it a second shot already! I had to copy the whole truck to this scene and had to retexture it and everything, but it's worth it (the other track had some hideous bumps in some places)

No not really a shaded Duster with one of those rotary knockoffs is doing fine. Having a lot of trouble with the suspension though

faytree, I did one like that a lot of time ago but it was so ugly...

But the dashboard is looking quite good, isn't it?
I even added a button to change the speed unit!

@pnvv: Well that's a matter of discussion here in Latin America, everyone says that you're all selfish calling your country America. Same for me though
I gotta beef the engine up a whole lot, it seems... I thought that everything weighted a little over 1000 kg
@maxgamer2000
@INH Because it looks awesome like this.
joke, the wheels are like that because they aren't the original from the pic i used, so I just scaled them down a bit. The original are R16 I believe and it looks real ugly with those
Also that gave me some speed i think
@faytree Renault: actually i used a render of an argentinian "limited edition" version just because it was the best angle I could find. There aren't any Dacia cars here, but yeah, the differences are very few

Gonna try either using my usual black magic to double the engine's torque, or just copying it and putting one aside the other(It would still measure 0.75x1.5)

Okay, then I'm going for twin-turbo high compression VTEC.
Well it actually has some kind of VTEC that kicks in at 500 rpm and gives me 50 extra RPMs but I still can get some juice out of it with spring turbos and really oversized rings to push the balls down. And an improved VTEC!
I wanted to see a power curve just to see if you could notice the vtec

It's called SCOTCH YOKE

No it's okay actually. if you make it go backwards the ignition will work badly because of some weird physics thing, but when i made my 7 cylinder I found 2 formulas for calculating gear ratios and cam numbers for either the camshaft going contrary to the shaft or to the same direction. If it went contrary it needed more cams (4 in my case) but it turned slower,and.if it went to the same direction then it needed less cams (3) but it had to go faster. irl it's cheaper to do less cams but I don't care here

like it now?
I'm not even sure if it really has less than 450 hp, but I just spawn 2 balls per cycle. and this is the track

I've boosted the engine a lot, changed the gear ratios, made the wheels smaller, made the suspension stronger, and made the engine a lot more durable so that it doesn't stop working after a little bump. If the engine still is okay, then I'm good to go

Yeah, I actually tested the old one and the new one by hand and made a little chart some hours ago. I think your dynos are a little bit inaccurate unless you increase the flywheel's mass to like 10k kg.
Can you change the spawned balls' density so I can tune it later? I don't know how you measure it, and since it gave me 100 hp and not 700, then i'd rather ask you Don't worry about the balls flying, i'll fix that as soon as i can. How much for the tournament to start?

I don't know why the chart is inverted but it is hp / RPM. Damn excel

Very good scene! We'd love to see a contest entry from you

Well there are three or four things you should never do when building an engine here at Algodoo, and two of them are:
never use legacyMode 0 axles on rods or whatever you wanna call those (you just lose power)
Never use too much reciprocation on a normal car engine (If it's for a tractor it's okay) as this gives much less rad/s though it gives a little bit more torque. The difference between a slow engine and a fast engine with a gearbox is just too big. Try the rods at half the distance from the crankshaft's center (0.125m)

Good start though

Did you even try, pnvv?

Dammit, I forgot about that tank
Whatcha gonna do with the scene? will you just use the modded one and ignore this scene?
Just tell me how much density you used so that I can change it here

Instead of using a random number generator you can use rand.normal (I think it gives a number between -2 and 2), or rand.uniform01 (gives between 0 and 1)

I believe that comment was for vaidas though.
Awesome engine!

Okay. You're spamming.

Good gun. The skin is very good!
Some things I didn't like so much were the smoke and the cycling it has. For the smoke you can make it go up much faster and increase its size with time, put it a lot less timeToLive, and make it black with very little alpha. also making each particle collide between one another makes a more realistic smoke.
And for the cycling, I mean that on a real gun, when you fire it, the slide gets pushed for a very short time, and then it gets back all the way by inertia. When you fire this gun the slide seems to have acceleration. Also if you could make it a little bit faster it'd be awesome

Oh it's not that odd. You can fix it by using only 2 axles instead of 4 or just using fixjoints
Or try going to the axles' script menu, then find legacyMode and change it to 0

Nick, to spawn water use this script on the onCollide, onHitByLaser or postStep of any geometry:
(e)=>{
Scene.addWater({vecs:= [pos,pos]});
SPH.setNewSPH
}

I use that one and it works okay. but always keep the water particle count to the minimum possible or else it will lag horribly (AMD users like me have a lot of lag regardless of the processor)

Good scene!

Good scene! Add some shaders to give it some depth if you ever find yourself bored, and it would be awesome if you found some way to make the initial tests more like obligatory and on a real situation (I mean, in the first part where there's ice you can just accelerate and pass through it, it would be better if you HAD to switch to fwd)

Crap, I'm late. What did I miss?



Talking seriously, if you are reading this, I tried to be out of the war for the last parts of the real flame war some time ago, but if i was on that streaming I would've gotten so carried away that you'd have needed to report me or call the police

1 "They are the problem because they are lazy and don't teach scripting to younger ones". Personally i didn't make any tutorials because i'm crap at them, but there were lots of different tutorials about everything, from engines to simple Thyme, that had less than 50 downloads. that's an entirely different matter isn't it?

2 "They're being d's to us" We asked somewhat politely if you could lower your scene uploads per day and what did you respond? I can get a screenshot at any of those scenes if you want

3 "Xray will ban us all" Why? because he banned you? because you're "one of the most important MR uploaders (quote)" ? He doesn't like them just like we don't, but if you don't fill the entire New tab with MRs then we'd just not even notice

4 "They started the rant, not us innocent marble racers" Okay. I have a lot to say about this. Plain simple: you kept spamming and even told us to **** off.
And maybe Algoryx started with making Algodoo free and not helping at all with this crap but what can i say...

5 "They will not forget about me blah blah blah" 4 or 5 days passed and the only things remaining are 2 scenes remembering you and Xray's notice. Ha.

6 "Good users as pnvv and faytree are mean" they're realistic. You keep displacing scenes


Xray, please, if you find something very inappropriate here just change it but don't erase the entire comment. I am really angry at this guy and i get carried away easily

If someone wants to make a message scene with this wall of text, welcome!

And if you read this I hope another video from YOU, especially talking about this comment

Well I hope you don't do any marble races...

That's more of an air turbine than a fuelpowered turbine as the balls get out just like they entered

For it to be fuelpowered you should make the balls expand or whatever else, then push the wheel
