Finis Armis-Tank (Phun Only)

Latin Translation of "Weapon of the End" - tank. This collab is about constructing the ultimate tank, better than any before. Each participant will be instructed to make a piece of the tank. Then, the peices will be put together in one massive tank. If there is enough participants, maybe two or three total tanks of different design will be constructed. The parts list is sown below, pm me and include the weapon(s) and/or part(s) you wish to build. In your pieces, if you use scripting, you will be asked to please NOT include scene.my. variables, to avoid any possible glitches.

Make parts in shades of green, and weapons in shades of grey. These will not be final colors, don't spend too much time on looks.
All submissions must be phunlet safe, but don't necessarily have to be uploaded as phunlets.
NO TEXTURES!!!!!!

I will provide the instruction/parts sizing scene, and will myself make any parts that aren't taken.

Parts:
Basic body (collideSet = 0)- Under Ground
Armor-
Wheels (without track)- Under Ground
Suspension- Under Ground
Tracks (have a sample that can then be set to chain)- Laserfishy

Weapons:
Primary cannon (infinite exploding shells)-laserfishy
Machine gun (automatic, preferably limitless ammo)-
Second machine gun-


I may think of more parts, please suggest some if you have any ideas.
Rules:
If you join please be sure to check for updates often.
You may make multiple parts if you want.
Two people can make the same part, but only one will be used. (unless multiple tanks are constructed).
Parts sizing scene shows the rough size, they may slightly exceed the set size.
Previously made parts may be used if edited slightly to be unique to this project.
Keep file size to a minimum, we don't want it to lag.
No textures.
No scene.my scripting.

note: the placement of the boxes isnt necessarily going to be the placement of the parts on the final tank

Basically the entire lower tank, without the track
I await your reply eagerly :)

Great! Ok, so you should probably download Phun to work on it, because hinges in Algodoo are different, and it makes it simpler. No one else has joined yet, so no rush. Congrats on being the first participant :clap:

Okay, I have almost done the under carriage (Including the track, which I have managed). but it needs major fine tuning.
I shall post it tonight :)

I am having computer problems, I'm using my iPod right now. I may not be active for a while, I'll try to fix it soon

Temporary computer fix: i have a paper clip stuck in the plug, don't ask how it fixes it, it would take too long to explain.

That's... really not very safe. At all.

Its not, but its in the computer end of the cord, so its only about 16 volts, not too much of a hazard (still not a smart idea
).

I'll try to tune it up, but it looks very nice, now we have something to work off of

Hurrah, but bear in mind that it is designed to go to the left.

I made a gun prototype, main gun or machine gun, not sure yet. spawns circles that it fires with restitution, i can make them higher density to inflict more damage.

Nice! Although you may want to reduce the friction on the barrel, I find it fires better.

Yes, i made lots of modifications, and i believe it would make a good machine gun. But the bullets stay in screen forever, so i was trying to find a way to make them delete themselves after an amount of time.

I made it less complicated, and more efficient. the back of the gun have attraction, so 'im hoping that wont affect the rest of the tank

main gun concept, should be able to spawn explosive shells so they dont need to touch a barrel

Here is my machine gun so far. It was made in Phun 5.28, so if you have phun and it doesn't work for you... don't come running to me. It can destroy almost anything. :D Please PM me with suggestions, that way work gets done faster.
