What if BRIDGE BUILDING was an OLMYPIC SPORT?? I take part in the Poly Bridge 2 Olympics and build the world's largest trebuchet whilst competing. The Polylympics 2021 include myself, Aliensrock, Arglin, Bolt986 (the developer of Poly Bridge 2), Reid Captain and Scottfreee333 all representing our own countries in the ultimate build off in Poly Bridge 2! Can I do Great Britain proud? ...or is that saved for my Kerbal Space Program videos?

A huge thank you to Mason and Palfly of the Poly Bridge community for making these fantastic levels and judging them too, legends!

@LiarraSniffles_X3 2 года назад

Sad there weren't more faithful (to the game) style levels, though the ones you guys did do were all cool. (Stuff like, why was there no budget based level, or more actual bridges in general.) Since I want to be constructive, here's ten quickfire idea's for 2022's polylimpics that are closer to real polybridge levels: 1: A bridge that has to carry a medium/heavy (optionally with a boat crossing that goes to build height limit to prevent wood rope bridges) car across a large span with only 2 anchor points (one at each end.) Can't go wrong with the classics. 2: A bridge that has to get 3 cars to 3 different heights in ascending order with only 1 hydraulic. 3: A bridge that can survive a boat crossing without any moving parts (so likely a jump or something for the car/s.) 4: A bridge that can handle a boat crossing then loop-de-loop a fast car afterwards. 5: An 8 road piece distance bridge but you only have 4 road pieces. 6: Similar to the above, a bridge with only one road piece and no springs. (classic cable car/crane/swing designs and such.) 7: A bridge with only one anchor point situated in the water below, but the car pauses in the middle of the bridge and a boat crosses on the left (behind the car.) 8: A bridge that can get two cars to their stars, one far under and one far above, but both cars start on the left at the same time. 9: A bridge that only uses rope and 2 steel pieces but the car is super heavy. 10: A Bridge that uses at least 6 of every item type, but you can only use 6 of every item type. These would all be scored by budget or peak stress depending on the level. Or both. (so you'd get 1 point out of 10 for every 10% below 100% stress, and 1 point per $1,000 under budget.) What do you think, any fun sounding ideas in that lot?

For the 2nd one, calculate the cost/m per unit mass, and use that. Then attach the weight to a rope, and drop it from above the end of the rod. Since unbreakable parts are on, it'll build up some great speed due to acceleration, which can then be transferred into the boulder. I'll bet accelerating weights on an unbreakable rope is what scores the most points

Engineers worry about breaking the bridge. Gamers worry about breaking the game. So long as it passes, it doesn’t matter to the gamer whether or not it breaks. It’s inconceivable for an engineer to build a bridge that breaks. It goes against literally the foundation of what you believe. Keeping that in mind, makes your videos doubly hilarious.
