Gravity Engine

[RicH]

This is just a proof-of-concept engine that uses lasers and density changes in order to work. It's pretty simple and I honestly don't know if somebody's ever done it before. If the concept already exists, kindly show me the scene so I can see how they utilized it. Thanks.

PS. I'm going to upload the scene in this post for now. I forgot my Algobox password.

You double posted, might wanna delete the other one.

Neat engine, but I don't get how it works. Does the higher density at the top of the cycle push the circles down faster, since they're sunk into the top part of the engine?

EDIT: Nope, the top doesn't collide with anything. Hmm.

The higher density at the top of the cycle pushes up the lower density at the bottom.

The engine, at its current state, is pretty weak. I could use it for a simple vehicle though. Maybe a two wheeled box.

EDIT: The car's in the first post.

Oh yeah, whoops. I can't seem to think today.

Box car is boring. Make the engine spin up a flywheel that you can launch a ball with.

Actually, don't. I want to try that.

But the box car is adorable...
