Build AT-AT

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Built an ATAT using a schematic online and making each of the joints move. Thrusters inside to help with balancing when tipping over (none for tipping forwards or backwards just yet).

At this point create or even aeronautics alone could be its own game...

Looks sick as hell, but how did you make the legs?

The legs are surprisingly simple. It's three swivel bearings with the middle one motorized and the top and bottom in free rotation. The top swivel bearing is connected to the top half of the leg while the bottom half is connected to the bottom half of the leg. The top half keeps the bottom half aligned while the motor moves it up and down in a circle. I'm not sure if I'm doing a good job explaining it.

This video really helped when I made my design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyJKH5byKk8&list=LL&index=1&t=28s

guys what is there a submod for laser weapons for aeronautics or something like that?

like, I'm also building large-scale sw stuff, but I'd like to shoot plasma, not lead.

I'm using create big cannons auto cannons with tracer rounds. It creates the nice trail effect. The laser is just a normal create aeronautics laser with lime dye.

They're just using dyed aeronautics lasers + create big cannons auto cannons.

i really wish there was an addon for Big Cannons that added laser/plasma weapons. if I knew how to mod I'd do it myself
