Gas Cylinder Valve and Gauge - HELP!

Hi All,

New to Algodoo but loving it so far!

Can anyone help me with figuring out how to design a gas cylinder with a valve? I saw an aerosol spray can in the featured lessons but do not see how they are doing the button on top. I imagine I could use the button like motion for a valve but would prefer to use a turning valve.

Also, any way to show pressure build up and release on a pressure gauge? That would be incredible!

TIA!

There is no gas in algodoo but you could simulate it with small circles. The rest is your design ideas.

Hi Killnich,

Yeah, I wanted to illustrate gas movement and compression with bubbles but wasn't sure on the valve illustration.

I'll check that tutorial out.

Thanks!
