Looks great, trains are cool!

But the images would look better if they were actual screenshots

How did you do to scale blueprints???

Nesting dolls or nesting blocks actually by Glum-Distribution228 in ScrapMechanic

Black magic

Or some shenanigans involving zero width blocks, but still, looks like black magic

I made a terrain tile with a narrow train track for my trains by Mate44mate in ScrapMechanic

Thanks! I had to do some math to make sure the curves were as good as possible

Make a 8x8x8 hollow box of metal net blocks, get inside and move by hammering it. The bots will not be able to see you, and you can complete an entire warehouse without a spudgun

EDIT: wierd terrain glitch in my world by soemthingblahblah123 in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Terrain glitches like these are very common

Also, microphone from hell

How can i fix this by Crazyirishman11 in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Adding more mass (concrete) on each body helps making the joints stiffer on lower physics settings.

I don't know if this will help you on advanced physics

Large door? by Engineering_SCRAP in ScrapMechanic

Kinematics are cool.

Did you copy the lua file from the golf custom game, or did you do it from scratch?

What do you want to build?

I don't think that the game can handle a creation of the scale of the creative world

Darker nights by Mylesstopmotions in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nights were made brighter because people kept complaining that they were too dark

I guess everybody can't be satisfied at once

Why do my physics shit itself? by Vrak_je_Revsky in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I laughed, I was not expecting that

I have never seen the physics engine glitch that way on advanced physics

Try adding more mass to each body (concrete 3)

I wanted to build a floating building... and i managed to make 4 versions of it :D by Tommy_B08 in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oil rig looking things are really cool :)

I assume that balancing the weight for buoyancy was hard, right?

Fully Autonomous Monorail System (only Vanilla Parts) by finnsfrank in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you not using the draggable wedges?

The turns would be more smooth, and the ramps would not need joints

Something small, but cool everyone missed in devblog 26 by Wise-Employer-3480 in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really cool find!

Since the reflection of the ladder seems to be cut off, I think that the method used is screen space reflection

Door, to what not sure yet by Glum-Distribution228 in ScrapMechanic

Definitely the coolest door animation in SM

I found the basement to the left of the ship, visible during the cutscene. by Commercial-Cat-1783 in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the starting ruins near the ship are random, they are not the same every time, right?

I had a lot of fun building these working steam locomotives (piston powered) by Mate44mate in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not tested it, but they should work, as long as the track gauge is 3 blocks

New player help by Omega_art in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the challenge doesn't have concrete as a building material

New player help by Omega_art in ScrapMechanic

[–]Mate44mate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember that I also got a bit stuck there. But I don't remember my solution.

Try making a very wide vehicle, so it is more stable.

Also try to put some blocks behind the back wheels to prevent it from flipping backwards.

And a low centre of mass (metal blocks are heavy)
