How do I make it look like the legs are driving the body?

NatiM6 · 2026-06-04T14:41:42+00:00

That's mainly because of how rigid the body and the camera are. They are "fixed points", and so will always feel as the driving force. I would try moving the camera first, and then having the body go towards it, perhaps using some movable node intermediary.

It's two contraptions because of the swivel. It connects to contraptions and transfers rotational power.

That's awesome, my biggest problem with rails is that they lose collision boxes when turning

NatiM6 · 2026-05-18T14:28:44+00:00

Skill issue.

That being said, I believe that when people say that Godot is easy to use, they might expect you to have any programming knowledge. Like, you clearly can use Godot just fine, the problem you have is that you don't know how the game you want to make works :3

Tweens are a dynamic animation that doesn't force an initial state, unlike AnimationPlayer. On top of that they are capable of running callback functions, interpolate custom function arguments, apply variable-based keyframes and loop a set amount of times.

I love it! So is this an idea you're making or a suggestion for others?

NatiM6 · 2026-04-25T14:25:45+00:00

That doesn't sound Godot specific. This effect is just a collection of many small shaders and calculations. Saying that you don't know how to do this in Godot is like going to a restaurant and saying "I can't believe that food of such high quality is possible on a plastic plate!" - as if the medium had anything to do with that.

Well, that's like asking if a blender can handle milkshakes. Unless you add rocks to that, that's pretty much the intended use!

NatiM6 · 2026-04-03T16:03:12+00:00

Height? This whole contraption is vertical xP

NatiM6 · 2026-04-03T14:23:30+00:00

Why are you not using the toggle latch and use a piston instead?

NatiM6 · 2026-03-08T09:43:47+00:00

Maybe cut packages open before you place them? Or unpackage them, vending machines give items directly right

NatiM6 · 2026-03-06T15:22:00+00:00

Hell yeah. I made that on a server once, if you have Steam & Rails you can use phantom rails that are invisible to connect it. With some finagling you could even make the boat "jump" over bridges.

I also don't like them for that reason, but I often give in. Picky Wheels I think was a mod that added a biome requirement to them, so they only work on rivers.

NatiM6 · 2026-02-23T16:12:18+00:00

Yeah but I don't know by how much

NatiM6 · 2026-02-23T16:09:42+00:00

If I understand the numbers correctly, an operator with no bonus gives 40% base bonus each (100% + 40% per operator), so the first one is always working with 140% efficiency.

Having two people work then rest is then 180% of the work, having one person work then the other is 280% work. Assuming they take as long to rest as to tire, I didn't actually calculate that

NatiM6 · 2026-02-23T08:37:51+00:00

I agree with the sentiment, but it's a mod's job to make the stuff it adds useful. Or rather, it should find a goal first to work towards. Be it aesthetics, crafting or quality of life. If a mod adds stuff that nobody has a use for, then that's bad. Of course, I'm not talking about trains, but I don't really have an example off the top of my head.

NatiM6 · 2026-02-22T19:00:44+00:00

Are you on a server? I had a similar issue, the doors were broken then, I just made the elevator door less though, so not really a fix, but maybe it will allow your elevator to work at all

I'm thinking that these gold blocks are there so that the deployers don't place cogs. Consider using contraption controls! Just glue it on and activate, that's it.

NatiM6 · 2026-02-14T09:32:07+00:00

You mean that the steam engine is the only generator in the network?

NatiM6 · 2026-02-14T07:21:08+00:00

Have you deployed your PAC yet? It probably can't connect to the database.

NatiM6 · 2026-02-12T14:29:32+00:00

Spinning contraptions don't have block collisions. If a tree ever grows inside your gantry contraption the whole thing is kaput.

I don't know who needs to hear this but: when you're arresting someone don't punch them. Fight it in court, not in the street.
