Can This ROCKET-POWERED Motorcycle Break The Sound Barrier? 

Space map is endless? Wonder how soon someone tries to get to speed of light...

@@AgentWest Yes. Going past one edge will automatically loop you back round the other way.

Shame this is t a feature already

its not endless, it just loops

@@techno1561 Ah, so it's more "circular" rather than infinite.

also wedges on the back, the game doesn't show that but trailing edge wedges help a lot. With those it will definitely go supersonic with just one.

@@radontrailmakers i tested this thinking the same thing and I couldn’t get it to go any faster. I tested a car with one dragon jet with front aero and flat back vs the same car with reverse aero on the back added. The speed was the same if not slower do to the added weight. I’ve seen it possibly work in videos though so I’m not sure how else you could definitely test it and know where and when it does and doesn’t actually do anything.

@@letsdosomething6691Interesting, in my testing trailing edge wedges have helped. I don't know why it may not have worked for you.

That is only true for hydrodynamics in this game.

I tested and found no indication that reverse aerodynamics are a thing in the game.

​@@dustinlackey4250100% correct. It's why most people "can't make a fast boat"

And I really was not expecting it to go faster with the wheels off at the end. I guess now that Spacebound is out, wheels just slow us down all the time. LOL

Again gyro stabilizers!!!! It would have saved you so much weight and headache kosmo!!!

Still kosmo the big rocket engines build up in power as you hold the power down. They take time to reach max power

I have. Skis require fins to keep the vehicle going straight, otherwise it just spins out. The amount of stabilization required to keep it going straight on skis outweighs any sort of benefit of using the skis, from my experience.

@@darealkosmo Ah, I see. I thought the new block that stabilizes the creation could do it.

It s it a mod

ok but I am trying to build a motorcycle not a thruster train :) function AND form. Of course I can strap the best aero pieces onto a bunch of rockets in a straight line and go supersonic in 2 seconds, where's the fun in that?

100% agree just something to think about when trying to get a little more speed

as part of the new update, it's a partial fix to the wheel sink problem, the physics don't change but visually the wheel tries to discreetly bend to look like it's on the ground. (in that case the wheels sink too much and the illusion isn't enough to look good)

it's a special talent of mine :)

@@darealkosmo never change my guy.

Im pretty sure he's trying a glitchless sonic boom

@@epicicevoid yes but still being so he can make a 0dg version so it can have some more detail

that would make the front wheel go up, because Gyro stabiliser try to face its tip always up

i thought the gyro tries to point the vehicle to the direction the arrow on it points @@monsieurgb497

not a mod

they scale up and down surprisingly easily, there is not much mechanical difference between the rocket in a not-a-child's toy that runs on a cigarette lighter worth of fuel per minute and an F1 Bell engine where the _fuel pump_ is rated at ~55,000 horsepower (or in numbers that are an actual unit of energy ~41 megawats) so it can push ~42.5 thousand gallons of fuel through the engine per minute. what is that in reference points...the fuel pump on an F1 would fill an Olympic-standard swimming pool in about 11 minutes and 40 seconds...though frankly I'm not sure how useful a point of reference that is...oh! okay: they aren't ALL the same size but apparently _most_ water towers in the US are roughly a million gallons, so about 23 minutes for a famous oldtimey rocket engine's fuel pump to pump a water tower worth of fuel...and they burn for like 10...(does a quick google check) yeah...yeah there was a bit more than an olympic-standard swimming pool worth of fuel used in each saturn 5 launch (touch over 521k gallons of fuel vs 490k for an olympic pool (203.4k of kerosene and 318k of liquid oxygen))...good lord you really just do *NOT* get the proper sense of scale from most images of a space shuttle launch do you? you think "this is a vehicle for people" and think of it as, I dunno, yacht-sized when in reality it is more like "this is a bomb the size of a skyscraper that we strapped some *REALLY* important bits to the front of, all we can do now is hope it blows up juuuust right". ah, google lied to me: the FIRST stage is 520000 gallons of chilly O2 and presumably hot kerosene, the second stage is another 340,000 gallons of hydrogen and oxygen (turns out soon-to-be-water is a pretty weight efficient fuel) and the third stage is another 86,000 gallons of REALLY eager not-water-yet. soooo, yeah, in terms you might actually have a personal reference for the fuel tanks on a saturn rocket were cumulatively roughly 1 city water tower.

Kosmo if you're seeing this can you make a I6 with the longest stroke and the smallest bore in BeamNG 😊❤
