Even if you don't get the tanker jump under half budget, RCE's going to have a *real* hard time trying to beat your score

How do the editors get in Tyler’s brain to explain his thought process so well visually

Certified Aliensrock moments I noticed in this video: 0:00 “welcome back” 1:32 “see if there’s any merit” 1:46 “new plan”
 4:04 “nonononono” 4:28 “just a stabilizer” 4:57 “dadadadadada” 9:09 “shawty get low” 9:38 “there’s also a world in which…” 13:11 “that’s a pretty good shave” 18:46 “and maybe this just works.” 19:35 “stay tuned”

After half budget is done. I would like to see some low stress gameplay, not saying he needs to replay everything like that. It’d just be fun to see how he’s able to engineer bridges that will kill you slightly less

The editors once again hitting it out of the park

Tyler is just 4 editors and a brain in a trenchcoat enjoying puzzles and I'm here for it.

Tyler, you need to think about leverage. Mentally simplify structures to their interfacing nodes, and think about how these nodes experience stress. For that, look at the position and direction of the force, and apply simple leverage logic to the structure. Example: When the truck hits the valley (3rd section), it pushes down through inertia. Depending on the position of the force vector to the foundation node, the section rotates left or right. Either way, the ramp (2nd section) gets pulled to the bottom/right, away from the top part (1st section). That in turn tries to rotate clockwise. Simplified to a triangle, the top was getting pulled, the left was kinda somewhat pulled but mostly through gravity, and the bottom was getting pushed against the cliff. Early on in that section, roads were snapping because the top side was only linked up by roads that had to take the strain. Also try to think about which paths the forces take, and support these in as straight of a line as possible.

I just finished this world and thought, oh it won't be so hard for him. Then I realized this is half budget.

Ya' know. Polybridge often reminds me why irl bridges are built with hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in budget

I love that not only is the editor getting progressively more intricate, but spicier as well. Idk who they are but they are fucking KILLIN it in your videos nowadays- and I really fucking hope that they know that, and that we love them.

My physics knowledge is ass but I feel like the lowest point on the ramp would benefit most from a foundation, as that’s where the tanker’s downward force is being the most drastically altered

The thing that i like about tyler video is hoe straight forward it is, immediately a video that i wanted to watch with great quality

Tyler at the beginning of PolyBridge 3: I'll only be doing half budget to start, once it gets difficult I'll stop Tyler now, at five sheep difficulty, with a jump level: I'm not abandoning half budget yet

Much praise to the all powerful editors!

Would you rather fight 5 difficulty sheep sized Tylers or 1 Tyler sized difficulty sheep?

Is Tyler gonna play super auto pets next with that first frame

1:34 the reason this didnt work is because the bottom road wasn't guided correctly upwards, the parallelogram was flat and collapsed and could've been fixed by adding 2 triangles and connecting them

I really appreciate the overlay when he's describing his plans. When he's going to do something I don't even understand the basics of they break out the crayons for me. Great work.

When the Steel muscle breaks you knows its a good map.

I feel like the major shave has to do with the foundations on the last bridge. Lowering them and changing their locations to absorb the force of the tanker more efficiently.

I love when Tyler looks at others bridges, after making his. You can just see the gears turning in his head with new ideas

The editors on point with bridge hub 😂

Slopes and curves on a bridge make for interesting dynamics, but it's so frustrating to build, shave and then realize that is needs a full redesign. It'll be cool if someone modded in a grading material. An unbreakable beam that can't be used to finish the bridge and instead of green/yellow/red, you get a bit more of a detailed view of the forces at play. I know it's easier said than done but it's nice to imagine.

I have a theory that a lot of the breaks on the truck jump were caused by weight distribution, because the transition from under to over was usually a pivot point.

Amazing editors wowww im blown away. The bridge hub edit at 6:08 was hilarious and shows how much effort they put in to a clip that's on screen for hardly 2 seconds.

13:57 Tyler: I'm ready to see some wood

Before this video I was sure that the tanker jump was the level that was gonna end this run since no one had gotten it under 100k. But now it looks like there are 3 people that have done it. So that means it is actually possible and Tyler will be one of the top 3!

I am impressed how Tyler seems to have such an intuitive grasp of the underlying engineering principles without any formal training. Maybe this is an alternative career path option :D

15:26 "yay transportation!" Best part imo

The editors are great yes, hail their almighty soulds and all, but Tyler refusing to make the center joint a split joint to connect to the roads on the first bridge brought me physical and mental pain and probably spiritual too

I can’t wait for the video: Aliensrock learns about centrifugal force, and how to work around it.

Been waiting for this Tanker Truck Jump, since i saw it on GoSeigens 1%. Great to see it still to be a challenge! :)

Story teller got an update ! You should play it , it’s amazing 19:40

This was so well edited. Bravo👏❤️

I was actually thinking "He made 1 curve and it worked, he optimized it and started shaving", and then right at the end it comes up - the initial curve might be the issue. Can't wait for the vid :)

the editors adding humor with perfect timing makes every video 100 times better. Hope with new editors this won’t change:3

These videos are the most entertaining content on youtube Every time I get a new notif of this guy I can't help but watch it

Editors my beloved fr tho Dan & Ben y'all did such a good job with this one. Keep up the good work

I'm thinking more of a ski slope shape (curve down, straightish line, jump up) to the bridge might be the way to go. Having such a large continuous curve to support seems to be a little bit too inefficient

'Held in place by my own petard' is unreasonably funny lmao

Tyler and the editors have their minds linked together telepathically or something

Always a blessed day when aliensrock uploads another video

I just wanted to say every time I hear the word "merit" I immediatly think of Tyler and by the way Editors you did a great job as always I love what you are doing

we will always praise these amazing editors

after watching you more and more I am convinced you are a Loki to RCE's Thor... you are the consistently strategic adversary to his random engineering powers of infinite bullsh*t... and I love every second if it xd

Editing on point. Very nice

It has to do with allowing single point rotation at multiple points through the bridge. That means it allows every section to put odd torque on all other sections.

I need that "The Last 7000 Is Always The Hardest 7000" frame

Man, your editors are hitting it out of the park!

6:08 god bless the editor

That "live laugh the last 7000" full sent me 😂

When doing over-under arches you shouldn't transition between them with only one joint, you create a pivot which significantly stresses the connecting piece at the beginning of the arch which at 8:36 and 9:58 is the case

So glad that we finally found the exact number of sheep that Tyler can fight and still lose

“Tyler when I ask for a day off:”

quick comment with that tanker jump, I believe it makes more sense to round up to 100000 than down to 99999. Only a single dollar, but every dollar counts in that nightmare

I managed $16,575 on that first one. Took me forever to get it to lock at just under $24,000 with all metal, then I managed to get all the metal and do 100% wood (with 4 hydraulics). It is a work of art. I put everything on the outside of the box and mirrored and flipped them... kind of like that FR-03 you looked at in the gallery (don't know how he did it with 2 tiny hydraulics). I could likely trim a bit, but I would have to redo all the geometry to get it to lock again. I gave up at this. It gave me top 15% and number 206 so I'm happy. I hated the second one.... absolutely hated it. I managed about $180,000. HATE HATE HATE HATE!!!!!!

hey great vids thanks for the awesome content

16:53 amazing editor humor

"Past Tyler would call this a butterfly effect"( "But now I know, that [describes butterfly effect]"

Tyler is finally becoming Reid Captain

The editors are truly goated

Waiting with little hope for the aliensrock reid captain collaboration

Tyler: "Past tyler would've called this butterfly effect" Also Tyler: Proceeds to explain that a butterfly effect just happened

"Old tyler would have called that butterfly but NO *proceeds to describe butter fly effect*" okay tyler

Great video 👍🔝

I’ll gladly watch you try to crack half budget on that one. That’s a tough one.

Bruh whoever made bridge hub needs a raise

if your roads break you can acually just overlay a rope on them not directly but over 2 pieces that will make them stronger for some reason

Good fucking luck on the tanker bridge level! it's the only level I haven't done under half budget, granted I may attempt to return to it later. What makes it so difficult is that the only way to get there that I can think of is just an exceptionally well budgeted bridge, no cheese or clever loopholes.

Great video

The go seigen guy at 6:02 has his own videos with his top 1% levels and all of his bridges that have to do with hydraulics are dope

Tyler you are a mad genius

Have you considered playing contraband police, Tyler

I think the middle foundation would need to be moved more to the right as a better static joint

I love these

SAP in an aliensrock video is crazy

Shoutout to go siegen for being one of the only people to do bridges legit

Gotta enjoy the $3410 (out of the $40000 allowed budget) bridge.

I love the little comedic comments the editors put in. Always makes me laugh

Staying tuned!

1:25 top notch editor

Definitely zero architects can beat a 5 sheep level.

Praise the glorious Editors!

Stay strong you got this🏖️

This money isnt for you Tyler, you know who its for.

That "BACON" guy is so good at cheesing it's crazy...

The very first 2 attempts, it looked like the bridge was in pain.

Damn Tyler has come along way from BTD battles

busting through and the ski jump is too similar lol

Thank you Tyler for getting destroyed by five sheep difficultly

I suspect the answer is to build closer to the foundations and have less supports linking between the sections - posting to keep my prediction honest.

9:23, gold

wacky idea from someone who doesn't play this game; steel muscles are cool and all but super expensive and as we saw here road can take a good amount of force... so what about a road muscle? is that anything? just a shot in the dark.

Nice to see super auto pets in the intro

THE SUPER AUTO PETS IMAGE WAS A JUMPSCARE

13:58 i think im ready to see some wood

Why does everybody praise the new editors? They are fine but I personally liked his own editing style a few years ago

8:12 you can hear Emergency Service sirens in the background :)

9:17 me at 1 am for some reason

At the number of steel beams you placed, it might be cost effective to lift the foundations up to reduce the amount of steel support on them.
