Planetary Gear assembly | DnDesires

Would be a craftable gear reduction system using the normal and giant (kind of) cog. Would be nice for a compact and visually interesting gear system.

The basic concept of the idea.

Redstone Divider & Kinetic Multiplier is basically that

Fair enough, I could just use those and build one, though this would be more visually interesting lol

You are fully correct though, didn’t think o that

[vapid lion]

destroy feference????

[dark thorn]

but at the most I'll make it into a Planetary Gearbox

I'll think about it

[left inlet]

oh cheers!

thank you much

[rough path]

there is a mod called Destroy that is an addon for create that adds a planetary gearset

[left inlet]

Just looked into it, I’ll have to take a look, but it also adds a ton of other stuff that I’d rather not include (I.E full blown chemistry)

I’ll take a look later but I still think it would be nice for DnD.

So after looking at it, that isn’t a genuine planetary gear set.
The purpose of a planetary is to change the speed between the output and input. The one in Destiny is actually just a large cog that rotates the opposite way on the shaft.

Figured I’d let you know as well ^^

I’m thinking having the actual ring gear stationary, that way your output is slowed if input is going into the sun gear, and output is sped up if your input is going to the planet gears.

Again not to over flow the thread here with an idea that isn’t even implemented, the whole premise is a simple 2:1 (or even 3+:1) gear reduction, so you don’t have to stack a bunch of cogs at the start of create to do speed increases off of something like a water wheel, or gearing down a steam engine to a slower speed with higher torque. Like a midway step to a speed controller.

here is how i am gonna do it

output shaft is half speed but if powered output shaft is double speed
and the large cog rotates the opposite direction of the shaft but if powered large cog rotate the same direction as the shaft but half the speed

if its the large cog input
it outputs the both shaft the same speed but opposite direction

[left inlet]

That just makes a ton of sense, kick ass

Hell yeah

im pretty sure destroy has this

forgive me my friend i didnt read all that for this specific reason: "i aint readin all that"

now i did

[spring mortar]

Well great news btw

[left inlet]

using it as of literally right now

Real

That’s what I meant by great news
