Mining Vehicles: Gas Engine or Electric Engine with Tank Steering? - Survival Nomad 27
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 08. 2024
- Welcome to another episode Scrap Mechanic Survival: Nomad! Today I want to test if my mining vehicle would perform better and faster if I swap out the gas engine and 4 wheel steering with an electric engine and tank steering. Does the electric engine allow for better control and maneuverability? Or is the gas engine just as good?

Seriously Scrapman, your music is really good. You deserve all the support you are getting, and we're all excited to hear more!
I’m not usually one to listen to metal / progressive metal but Scrapman’s (Catarinths) music was So. Damn. Good! Id like to not think that I’m biased just because it’s Scrapman but it was genuinely really well made.
Ayo scrapman if you see this your music bops (like the video if you agree)
This is wholesome
Well me too...also my fav one is recover bcs idk it just hit me in the heart
yeah!
imagine a glow up catarinth logo that syncs up with any music you choose…
that’d be so cool
I mean, that can be possible with Wallpaper Engine
@@wisewizard9552 you can quite easily just write a code and find an fft spectrum code online, just link it to computer sound, take the values of the fft, and wrap it around the logo and pulse the colors :D
@@brandonzhang760 the next question is. Dose scrap man know how to code?????
I heard Glow where is it
3:44 I remember that!
It was so funny watching you play survival for the first time, hank and all.
I have always wished this series will continue until chapter 2, but it seems as if it is not.
was too laggy i dont imagine it being possible to continue
imagine they fix lag enough to join that world with at least 40 frames :D
He still would need to see new start game content, like intro cutscene. Tho sm could really use "new game +" feature when you can pack up 1 large chest of stuff and 1 free blueprint for yourself (since it's known that blueprints in survival will have a complexity limit) for yourself in a new world
i remember those days it was amazing but its to laggy to move on
dunno if it will continue after the release
Before the 4 story you should make a detachable mini tank to drive in the there and keep you safe. Seems fitting for the nomad vehicle series.
kan already made that
@@spaceboiznotgonnagetmilk2377 exactly that is why scrap man should also do.😂
@@spaceboiznotgonnagetmilk2377 so? Theyre asking scrapman to make one
Ye... but it kinda unessesary
The nomad series is so dope! Building a little tiny roof mounted flyer for scouting would be super cool!
That would be the best thing ever
This video is amazing! I didn't know that electric engines has so many advantages when mining! Stopping and not rolling backwards has to be one of the biggest ones due to the drills having to be in constant contact with the rock a certain amount of ticks to deal damage! Usually the rocks just kinda stay there as you slide down the mountain so you have to use up gas just keeping yourself in place. Also THANK YOU for teaching me how to do tank steering! I was curious about it but didn't know how it worked!
to get batteries you could treat glowbugs like wocs and just collect cardboard like corn

I love that you used your own music for the outro. Perfect.
MM Idea.. Do a double decker derby car, its double decker races are when you stack 2 cars on top of eachother. then you make it so the car on the top controls the steering & the botom car controls the throtle, there is no comunication between the two drivers.
Day 3
Would be great
I Agree
Why is nobody talking about how Scrapman was “doing his business” for a little less than 3 days straight?

I will miss old survival series, Sm could really use "new game +" feature when you can pack up 1 large chest of stuff and 1 free blueprint for yourself (since it's known that blueprints in survival will have a complexity limit) for yourself in a new world
but if you fill it with tier 3 metal and component kits you ruin the fun of crafting and looking for materials
@@schultheismatthius Well you gotta make a whole chest of metal 3 anyway, just not on that save file, and if you got confused, you can make a new game + kits only in survival
@@ADonutMan So in a previous save file, you craft the metal, then in a next one, you take a chest full from the previous save into the new one? is that what you're getting at?
@@schultheismatthius thats what a new game + is
@@guymanhumanperson thanks for clarifying
6:08 man, this brings back memories when he killed a farm bot for the first time.
Jeez, am I old.
Your music is great. As suggested by you, I've shared to my metal head friends, and have actually started writing to one of them for a "cover". Big fan... along the topic of this video: still say, swap the arm the awnings are mounted to for a small pipe bar to reduce collisions. Tank steering is def the way for a miner.. a lot of people don't want this series to end but, end game should include finding the 2nd crashed ship, building a flyer, and "launching from this planet" from there... end scene being a flyer flying over the warehouse you finished.... love the content, keep it up..
use electric so when the generator drops you can charge it with a piston engine.
Though it MIGHT require quite a hefty charge, so it is a bit of a gamble if it would be enough for constant propulsion of a limited battery type of deal...
the infinite battery controversy is still going on,
i don’t think they’re adding it
@@apersunthathasaridiculousl1890 if they do add it hopefully they can make it so the only thing that can generate it is something from a gas engine and your hammer. maybe an if command to make sure there is no infinite battery's.

I like the improvements to the editing, I noticed the little time stamp to skip the mining montage and it was really cleanly placed. Just little things like that along with good music really put the polish on a good video👍👍👍
I've almost never seen scrapman do tank steering except the roomba
He uses it a lot in multiplayer mondays.
Only sometimes?
it’s extremely easy if you do it enough
and you can do it with pretty much anything
you mean THE DOOMBA
It felt like nomad was over a couple episodes ago but you definitely brought it back with the new quests. I am excited to see if glowbugs will be part of nomads!
Omg, suspension glitch with a gas engine basically fells like a real tank and it's incredibly good for mining. it only requires a single gas engine/electric motor and a single extra lvl 5 suspension. Also reduces lag and a lot easier to control, i can't find one reason to use that method other than maybe realism...
because its a lot funnier when its not just glitch land
Limits promote creativity, my roommate's boy doesn't accept limits on any of his games, and he's bored with Minecraft because there is nothing to do, because he did everything he heard of in creative and still doesn't know how to play.
@@zerosumgame5700 yeah but there's a difference between creativity and just plain frustration lul
@@hipo9121 That’s your opinion. Glitches, to me, open up a whole new world of possibilities.
just so you know there's a way to make a more efficient tank steering with i think only one more logic gate allowing you to go forward and left at the same time (so you have these cotnrols : forward both tracks ; left forward; right forward; left forward and right backward; right forward and left backward) and it only trigers the engines necessary so you don't burn any exess battery (but the backwards movment need an entire logic gate system too so screw the backward just do a 180)
Um tank steering is supposed to be used to turn in place so forwards and left is pointless?
@@isaiahTMP well actual tanks drive like that they don't stop to turn thy just have the inside track going slower and you can't do that unless you use a more complicated logic setup than scrapman has
I love this type of music. Scrapman, you are doing an amazing job with the music.
Hi scrapman ! Small tip for engines :
The gas engine output a fixed amount of raw power for each bearing, so the fuel consumption is linear : you eat x fuel per seconds.
The electric engine output a fixed speed, so battery consumption depend on "how much drag power you need". So if you are driving a small vehicle, you don't consume a lot of batteries.
And also, soooo cool your music in Catarinth 😊
8:26 imagine if they added like a rocket thruster, like 10x10x5 circular thruster that sucks back fuel, and a large cylindrical fuel canister, and building that to leave the planet is the end goal. And, of course, having that in creative.
isn't it the end of subnautica ?
@@hipo9121 oh yes
It would be neat if tank stearing was just a driving mode rather then having to greatly modify the vehicle if you get what I mean
well thats not really how scrap mechanic works
But it would be neat if it did now wouldn't it
@@themidnightbanshee5927 That would ruin the cost of tank steering.
@@the4spaceconstantstetraqua886 exactly my point
@@themidnightbanshee5927 but how?
I got an electric vehicle ad right before the video started! How utterly appropriate.
I always get so hyped when a new nomad vid comes out thanks scrapman
Wasn't sure if scrapman was actually a musician.
Scrapman: ~make it bright, paint it white~
Me: I'm convinced
I love that you referred to a bathroom as an 'outbox' lol
Also, great work on the music! Grabbed it on Apple Music and have been enjoying it for workouts.
i couldn't stop laughing at the spinning totebot head near the brown bush at 10:04, it was just dancing on its own. then to see him move his screen over at 11:38 and its still just chilling dancing in the background the entire time.
just thought I would say it here so that I don't have to say it on every song you have so far.
Your music is great, and I love that you are doing what you love, and the content you put out for doing what you love. In fact, I was just running out of music to listen to, and yours is a perfect fresh batch to do things like schoolwork and game to. although not in a monetary sense, you have my full support, scrappy.
Also I am pretty sure you didn't see it but I did finally post that meme I was talking about with Hank and Cowbert from season 1 on the discord a while ago lol. It's fine if you don't have the time to look at it, just thought I would mention it since it is one of the few good memes I have made ever.
It would be cool to build a WASD converter for this vehicle, also I am in love with the tracks you released. I have fallen asleep to them. It would definitely be fun if you could use your own tracks in your videos.
When you added concrete to the back of the miner, did it make it too back heavy now? Noticed you flipped backwards a few times in the montage.
Great videos, thank you for the content 😀.
I was thinking about that too, would adding some on the front of the vehicle help with that, or would it become too heavy?
Using *Recover* as the outro, Amazing!
Your next side quests could try and look more like a nomad!
Yes, I’m still asking.
10:05 that tote bot head is just vibing
*My name is Giovani Giogio, but everybody calls me-- Giogio*
Love the vids keep it up!
Those in-haust pipes are a really good idea, I definitely need to do that with my vehicle when chapter two comes out!
You should add a water dispenser that splashes at the bots to electrocute them
Yeah
why?
i was just thinking that
@@Neon-ws8er why not
I've been wondering how you do the button controls so good, and I finally found out by watching your videos! Oh, and also your music is very good and the thumbnails, keep up the good work!
your music is the best music i’ve heard for A LONG TIME so YOU should get SO MUCH CREDIT. Also you are the best youtube ever. (:
Completely stoked for more music my girl heard your songs and asked who it was and she's constantly listening to your music now lol but there great songs bud keep it up
So, everyone needs this question at some point, just to feel better :
How's it going Scrapman :3 ?
Your virtuous mission has received my first like.
@@loganroman5306 thank you
I LOVE the Catarinth outro! Please keep it!
I love how his backpack ispart of the rarest set in the game (the applincer set)
its nice to know i can wake up every morning and have your videos to greet me
I would recommend putting more weight in the back of your mining vehicle to prevent it from flipping since the concrete you put in the back made it a bit back heavy.
Another way you could easily get batteries is farming tapebots at warehouses!
Fun fact: The Hank Tank name is perfect since its as good as killing like Hank J. Wimbleton
Who him?
@@vxunaTM_xuandanhphan Madness Combat
HAAAAAAAAAAAANK GIVE ME BACK MY KNEECAPS BACK HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK
You know, I thought of an interesting idea while watching all the mining and thinking of some of your other videos.
With the new chapter coming up in an underground environment, maybe you could try doing something like a Volcanoids-esque mobile drillship as your base.
I don't know much about the games, only what I've sen in the videos, so I don't know if that'd be crazy power consumption or anything, but it might be cool.
Nice. The new outro music fits super well!
Add a retractable glowbug feeder that dispenses cardboard.
Whenever you stop to farm along the shore, bring a glowbug or two up to the shore and setup the feeder. Then harvest glowpoop along with farm crops.
Considering the fact that the Battery Container also has a port for depositing batteries automatically, you could potentially add in a pipeline from the craft bot to the rear of the Hank Tank so that instead of having to continuously adding and deleting a block, you can just . . . pop the miner on.

Another thing to consider is in chapter 2, you'd have the advantage of making a generator. Of course, this series will probably end by then by the time chapter 2 comes out.
I'm not a big fan of metal, but man, I really like your music! I enjoyed listening to it and I can't wait to hear more songs. I will surely stay tuned waiting for some more amazing music!
Put a Greenie head on the front in the middle of the Grill! You wanted a piece for that, and the head would be perfect!
The new music for the outro is perfect!
I really wish the devs would add in the ability to bind buttons to WASD.
Yeah and simplified tank steering option
I think Scrapman should add a raising turret so he could theoretically shoot anywhere around his vehicle and drive away in an emergency.
And maybe a piston on the back of the mining vehicle that extends when a sensor on the front gets too far away from the ground to prevent flipping?
8:37 Launching a rocket requires a LOT of water Scrapman. It makes sense to have the launchpad there.
Minecraft: off camera mining
Scrap mechanic: time lapse mining
I love the metal music!!! 😀🎸🥁🎹
FWIW, for the speeds that miners go, Level 5 Controllers make a decent form of propulsion. They're fuel-efficient but herky-jerky; Electric are unquestionably more pleasant to drive. On a small cart like ScrapMan's, efficiency isn't a big deal, but if you have a rig with onboard refineries, it matters much more.
But what impresses me about the smaller mining vehicle (as opposed to any of the behemoths that we've all seen) is that when the drill on this car makes contact with a rock, it definitely breaks. I've got a big mining rig (think on the scale of kAn's Combine) and that just doesn't happen reliably. You can be pushing a block with the drills and it still doesn't break. Clearly there's some kinda bug in scrap mechanic at work... But what trips it? Oftentimes I'll be in a case where the rocks simply will not break, and I put my rig on a lift, take it off, and boom, fixed it.
I have theorized that it's to do with degraded framerates caused by piled up rocks, but this video seems to disprove that theory. I never saw one single time when the drill was in contact with the stone and the stone didn't break within 2 seconds.
My best guess now is that it's to do with the mass of the vehicle. Could also be the number of drills, but I doubt it. Could be something that happens when a resource collector is on the vehicle...
I don't play the game, so I don't know much about how the physics work. I have an idea for a more compact mining mechanism. I'll attempt to draw it as it would look like from above.

It's basically a mouth. If attatched like your current mining vehicle, it will take up the same amount of space, but it will count as just 1 vehicle instead of a mining vehicle and a main vehicle. It will use less fuel because you wont have to position yourself perfectly. just open mechanism, flip mechanism down and start drills, back up so mechanism is around rocks, and chew the rocks to bits. You can even add googly eyes!
edit: You spent a lot of component kits on your method, so not using electric engines would be a waste...
It was funny when he was like let's get a drink gla gla gla gla gla ok im satisfied" that was so funny
scrapman every episode: how can i fix this lag?
also scrapman: *never cleans up any totebot heads or downed trees*
Sick. Vid i love waking up to your vids
The problem with the Onnings is that the first one would clip into the lower bar for some reason. After you accidentally broke it, the problem was solved. There was a window there so you probably shouldn’t replace it for now
Side quests : make a lading pad and a flyer on top of the hank tank :)
The 25:10 is very convienient thank you (I only skip multilayer monday montages)
Electric looks cool and functions well too! Great video!
For the glowbugs, I imagine you'll need to replace them each time you want to farm glow poop. Might be best to make a glowbug farm attachment to your vehicle you can lower into water on the beach, then swim and get some glowbugs. For efficiency, perhaps do this next to ruins you can loot so you have something to do while they eat.
They don't need water. You just have to feed them cardboard every few (14?) days...
Dev gods: drop woc capsules.
woc capsules: pop.
Scrap Mechanic grandmas: and that is why there's so many wocs
You should put a horn on the (hank thank) to honk at the bots before you kill them
Love (catarinth ) and keep up the good work :) ;)
“when i flew my flying and tried to land on that landing pad…. when i was experimenting with dropping bombs”
What??
Just imagine having a resource collector on the mini mining vehicle. Would make swaping out resources collectors more convenient
He tried adding it but it doesn’t goes well, getting the resource collectors and place them everywhere is way way more efficient
True but his done enough evolution vids that things need to change and i did say conviant. Hell just have an extra resourse collecter at hand🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think the reason that the resource collectors reduce mining performance is because it is probably coded to keep checking if there is rods around it every single tick and the drills also check if they are dealing "damage" to the rocks every tick and when both are checking together it drops the mining performance
Scrapman: what if our final goal is to build a rocket to get us out of here
Trailmakers stranded in space: *am I a joke to you?*
I have an idea, you could turn the hank tank into a big rig. By turning most of the rv into a trailer that can be detached but you probably want to stick with the rv since you've been using it for so long that you might like it the way it is
Do the highest level raid you can do and find Hank
That will be the perfect finale for the series
Please do it
I think you should have a driving mode and a mechanisms mode in your vehicle. The driving mode is same as now, but the mechanisms mode moves where the seat is, so you can see your entire vehicle instead of just some of the front. It's more fun if the seat itself is moved, but you can just have another seat.
You know how ur bedroom extends up? U should make ur bathroom do that too. Use pistons and awnings for walls. The real challenge? Keeping the plant;) I know how I'd do it. I'd like to see how ud do it :)
Challenge accepted?
Wouldn't it make the bathroom even taller?
Glowbug and EXPLOSIVES!!!
I really loved all of the music! Recover was my favorite
Please before the series is over, install a Hank statue on the Hank Tank! Or replica of hank?
15:07 scrapman:*uses connection tool*beacon:am i a joke to you?
The upcoming sticky wheels should be a no-brainer when it comes to mining stone nodes, even outside of the underground biomes.
To stay alive, maybe glowbugs need to be on something that shifts with the forces of acceleration. Like a hammock, or a horizontal pad suspended with... suspension. Yes, I know, lag nightmare. Personally I'd just treat it like farming and park somewhere every few days to feed cardboard to the little squeakers. Beach day! Grab some glue clams while the bugs chow down.
Ever since your volcanoids series I've come to consider that montage music your "combat" theme.
Scrapman should try a survival flying fortress series. That would be a cool concept to have a flying base.
Make a boat for the glow bugs. Not attached to the ground so doesn't violate the premise. Also Nomads would have winter quarters and summer quarters, each with their own unique properties... like the trader, or the mechanic station.
Scrapman, the rocket launch from the water plant makes perfect sense if it is not a water treatment plant at all. What if that is a HHO plant and they convert water to fuel there!!
Don't end this series plssssss we loves this series
00:03 scrapman doing his business
Little does everyone realize. The big van isn't the tank part of The Hank Tank. It's the little mining vehicle on the back.
I like how his montages now have music from his music channel now that he's revealed it
That's Great.
You should Build Mini Tank Steering Exosuit
For Warehouse.
Thank-you scrapman we love your videos
you only used 2 batteries... keep up the awesome work on BOTH channels!
end of this series needs to be an attempt to make the tank fly

When do we get to see the skinny boat so you can travel the ocean? Just watched Kan and Kosmo go gold chest collecting with theirs. You can add rotors to yours and make a flying boat. Make it a twofer all while attaching it to the top of the Hank Tank and probably still lower than the top of your outhouse. =D
3rd time mentiong this. yet another reminder that it will be a good use of all those bubble blocks you made.
