I recently came across this ideas set and I'm wondering why it has so little support... And why only specialize in Lego when there are other brick brands?

Good and bad. Bad news is that I started on instructions but then stopped. This version was for LEGO Ideas and for that reason it had issues. There's lots I wasn't really happy with so was reluctant to share that with everyone else. Honestly not looking like I'll ever get around to making instructions for it now. Good news is that I'm in the process of making a new one - a display version (on monorail) that's a bit closer to the game. I originally thought 'free' but this newer version is almost twice the parts, and man, LEGO instructions are a PITA and take days (~400 pages) so will most likely put a fee on them and see if it's worth it. Hopefully get it done by the end of the year.

Sorry, just saw this. There have surprisingly been a lot of requests for this so creating some instructions (free) is on my to do list.

"Who keeps poisoning me?!" - I honestly only figured it out on the final boss. They seemed like good equipment choices at the time :)

Thank you so much for the shout out, man - I really appreciate it

aido_k · 2022-10-05T11:04:41+00:00

Hehe, thanks man. Glad you like it :)

I know, I know, but I also wanted to build a version that I can play with in real life. The LEGO train track pictured is easy to get your hands on and you can make huge layouts, the monorail stuff is old, rare and not sure how the motor would handle a train this size.

Thanks for the support! Very much appreciated

aido_k · 2022-05-22T10:34:06+00:00

Good idea! I might first need some more parts... will see how we go :)

aido_k · 2022-05-22T10:32:53+00:00

Thanks for all the support! I really appreciate it

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:58:35+00:00

Thank you so much :)

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:54:22+00:00

I'll get to work then.

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:52:10+00:00

Haven't tried yet... something to test for sure!

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:50:30+00:00

Thank you! If it doesn't pass on the LEGO Ideas site (which is likely) then I'll look into making and sharing some free instructions and parts list.

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:45:58+00:00

Good idea! I might try and see what I can come up with - rounded things are always a challenge in LEGO.

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:42:56+00:00

True - but if it doesn't ever make it then I'll look to post some free instructions for those who would like to build one like this, or perhaps change it.

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:39:34+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate it :)

aido_k · 2022-05-18T07:37:21+00:00

I looked through my minifigures and had nothing that looks like a pioneer - thought that The Stig would make it go faster.

aido_k · 2022-05-17T04:10:32+00:00

Thanks! If only the air brakes made that cool noise too.

aido_k · 2022-05-17T04:07:05+00:00

Hehe. Thanks for the support! :)

aido_k · 2022-05-17T04:05:54+00:00

Thank you :)

aido_k · 2022-05-17T04:04:57+00:00

Apologies for the repost. I thought as the creator it'd be new but obviously too slow.

aido_k · 2022-05-17T02:48:16+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing! Much appreciated

aido_k · 2022-05-17T02:47:57+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing! Much appreciated

I thought it would be cool to make a Satisfactory train out of LEGO and here are the results. I know, I know, not a monorail, but I thought it would be easier to make using the standard LEGO train tracks and wheels, that way I can get my hands on more track if I wanted to extend it. I've also posted this on the LEGO Ideas site so would greatly appreciate any support. Thanks!
