Algodoo

Then buy an Android phone next time. No more problems with iPhones!

Saidhruva -- Didn't you read my comments? If you did, then you don't need to ask me that question.

Yes, nice work, Ivan, but there is one problem which is similar to the problem you had with your tank gun. That is, the gun left and right controls have no limits. It's a problem because if the gun shoots while aiming at the ground, the entire UFO explodes! No intelligent Alien would design a weapon like that!

Everyone knows that!

How do you access the "secret" tools?

A simple way to limit the motion of an object is to place a small box or a circle at the plus and minus limit points. In the case of this UFO, the box or circle can be glued to some other structure on the UFO but it must have the same collision layer as the gun (which happens to be D). Also, you must reduce the motor torque to a much lower value. Currently you have it set to 50000, but it must be reduced to 100 or the gun will not stop moving when it hits the limits. When you see that the limits are working as desired, you can make them disappear but still be functional by setting their color transparency to zero (R,G,B,T). That will work because I tried it!

MyNameIsThis -- I never heard of Exagear and so I did some research. It's a Windows emulator that runs on an Android device. It sounds like a good idea but you would need a standard keyboard and a mouse in order to use it on an Android phone. Also, with Exagear AND Android AND Algodoo all running at the same time, I doubt that most Android phones would be able to run without a lot of lag. Do YOU use Exagear on an Android phone or did you just learn this "trick" from someone else?

You can fix that this way: First of all turn OFF the grid and gravity because they are not needed. Select the entire emoji then right-click on any part of it. When the edit menu pops up, hover on "geometry actions" then click on "glue together". Save the scene. That's it! Now the emoji will stay together without being glued to the background.

Here's another sphere with a screwdriver in it. It's called DEMON CORE

That's great! It looks like a good alternative for people who do not have a Windows computer.

Thanks!

Awesome!

"thing Yeeter 5000" That's probably the funniest scene title in all of Algobox!

Soon after playing this scene I got very hungry for a Smoothie!

Nice job!

ivan - That's great! It does work very well.

Now you are an experienced script coder!

What a strange conversation.

Of course you did! You are a Guru Thyme Script god. (not quite a Super Guru Black Belt, but close to it!)

Do you remember what kind of tools they were?

What's cool about this scene is you could drag any marble from any bin and move it to any other bin and it will become the correct color!

In fact, you could use the Move tool while the sim is paused and the marble color will still change! How cool is that?

s_noonan you are such a perfectionist.

Anyhow, thanks for the suggestions. I always appreciate them.

My excuse: As you probably noticed, I made this scene for the marble race community. They obviously are not concerned about accuracy or precision, and I didn't want to spend a lot of time making it.

Did the Sturgeon General really say that? It sounds rather fishy to me.

Keep this in mind: Even if I don't use your suggestions I always learn something from them. So, keep 'em coming!

Absolutely! Kids should learn to become critical thinkers and to ask questions rather than to automatically believe whatever crackpot pseudoscience that someone tries to feed them.

I'm surprised you found that! I was the chief electronics engineer on that project about 20 years ago when the hydrocoptic marzlevane was developed. THIS VIDEO describes its major components.

Nope, no fire. Just a red and blue gear and a bunch of junk below them that you shredded up.

@GamerRePlayz -- It's not a bug. It's something that YOU did with a spinning laser.

Oh, by the way, yes you can mess up the clouds as well as other things in Algodoo (and most other software apps for that matter) by exceeding X or Y normal range of values. I wouldn't call that a bug because when you do that (intentionally or accidentally) you exceed the limits or capabilities of the app. Algoryx has known about this sort of thing since Algodoo was released to the public in 2009.

The girl has a "marble bomb" in her bag that exploded.

The sign says "COLT" not COTL.

Why don't you try making your own scenes instead of copying and uploading other people's work? You copied this engine from user Gent.

I remember your Thermal Convection scene that you uploaded back in 2014. In fact all of your scenes (I think about six) explaining thermal transfer through various materials seem like they would be great teaching tools for any young engineering student. Nice work.

Do you have gills?


By the way, it's "water" not "wator".
