Giant Yamato

[craggy mirage]

Got bored and built a giant Yamato around 400 ish blocks long. All the turrets turn and the guns all fire, the secondary and AA guns are a little unreliable. the two rangefinders also turn, recently fitted with radar. She has 2 boat hangers which both have functioning doors and a system to get boats out of the water and into the hangers, an aircraft hanger and working anchors.

Wow very big

That must lag lol

[craggy mirage]

surprisingly not

Eureka's config needed a bit of editing to make it all work but this thing lags less then a plane I tired to make with clockwork

[acoustic jackal]

Oh wow

Did you lower the physics LOD?

[primal storm]

that thing really is HUGE

[craggy mirage]

I don't think so

[acoustic jackal]

Wow, anyway really nice build

[craggy mirage]

thanks!

[restive ocean]

big boat, very nice

[craggy mirage]

Thanks!

[solar hearth]

I'm surprised the turrets don't lag

[craggy mirage]

Went through a lot of testing to make sure they don’t! They use mechanical bearings, which also means they could technically clip into parts of the ship

[solar hearth]

Ah.

[acoustic jackal]

Oh so that's your secret hah

So how do you fire the guns though

[craggy mirage]

Create interactive!

[acoustic jackal]

Oh

Wait wouldnt that also lag pretty much the same then

I feel like you just have a really good PC

[craggy mirage]

I surprisingly not, I have a gaming laptop and it runs fine

[acoustic jackal]

Wowzers

[craggy mirage]

I had all the turrets work by clockwork originally and that brought my frames down below 30

There was the time the turrets just floated away as well which was weird

[acoustic jackal]

Interesting

Hmm i guess the collisions are the laggiest part then

Which makes sense now that I think about it

[craggy mirage]

this was a little test I did before switching over to the mechanical bearings

[topaz galleon]

smash

[hasty coral]

Can it sail?

[runic kindle]

massive

[craggy mirage]

Yes
