@@rohenthar8449Space engineers has been updating at generally the same pace for a very long time. What has changed is the complexity of the updates, with recent ones having major gameplay changes compared to older ones. Empyrion has been around for a long time, and isn't really a strong competitor, pulling in a fraction of the players even at its all time peak. The real change that has affected updates is likely the development of SE2. The updates to SE are likely the team's way of experimenting and implementing changes that are relevant to the sequel. If the code for a new feature is easy to backport it makes sense to use it in the older title to maintain interest and generate revenue through dlc sales while developing the sequel, rather than allowing the game to stagnate and interest to wane during development. Note that this is all speculation, but I feel it makes a lot more sense than the idea that the devs are somehow recently panicking from competitors that have been around for years, haven't done well, and aren't pulling players away from their own title.

Sounds more like a gyroscopic stabilizer. They have these for boats to increase stability in rough seas. It's basically a flywheel that spins at insane RPMS. all mounted on a control that can tilt in any direction on its 3 axis'. Generally the flywheel is encased in a vacuum chamber so it can spin even faster without any air resistance and the whole thing is mounted on the controller
@johnkarako91385 ай бұрын
In SE, their intended use is related to this. They allow the ship to rotate along the three local axis. The higher gyro/mass ratio, the faster the rotation. If you don't have any gyros at all, the ship can only strafe along the three local axis. The reason they are used as armor is because of what's listed in the video, but ALSO because they only connect on a single face. This makes them extremely useful for the internal half of a spaced armor system (in a combat meta where splash damage is much more common than penetration damage). In addition, because of the reasons stated in the video, they can typically outperform the outer layer in terms of damage negation once that initial outer layer is stripped off.
@mleise829222 күн бұрын
Indeed, it is the same effect that keeps you upright driving a bike: A spinning mass resists a change in its axis of rotation. In ships the axis is vertical, so the vessel resists rolling and pitching with the waves. In spacecraft with Control Moment Gyroscopes, they actively manipulate the axis (like turning then handlebar on a bike) and the flywheel will resist, causing the spacecraft to rotate in the opposite direction instead. 😉

If one is not confident in being able to place a gyro effectively as armor, just dot them around the outside so if they are detached they float away with minimal collateral. This is really good for atmospheric fighting, place it facing down and it is armor for ground attacks and simply drops away if detached.
@-nt-baguetted1298Ай бұрын
Very true. Using the gyro-out concept was the key limitation that governed a series of rovers I made that imitated heavy tank. I classify them as MBTs because they can be fairly quick, but lack the engine power to provide constant acceleration on all terrain types. Basically, the tank has two gyro “arrays” that are separated from each other one is shaped like an upside down U. Gyros face out, with the heavy armor they’re welded onto abutting the 3x3 rotor for the turret. This coupled with some external spaced armor consistently defeats assault cannon rounds. This protects the side, while an additional array is mounted at the front of the hull and turret face. She’s a beefy girl, weighing about 170,000 to 185,000 units depending on the model. However, I’ve not found anything like her on the workshop. All the components are protected behind gyros. She can actually tank shells, and really weather Gatling spam. The tank will look awful but still function admirably.
