Piston and Rotor Heads "Axis" and "Non Axis" forces

EDGE shared this bug 3 years ago
Outdated

So I'm adding to my previews findings when it comes to unsuitability issues with "Rotors" and "Pistons".

The way I understand this,.. In "pistons" the "piston heads" have the ability to move sideways and stretch and in those movement you can apply resistance. This force is transference to the two grids its connected to and is capable of creating movement between the two grids. This is not in line with physics when building in space, and I really don't see why you would want a piston that is intended to move things in and out to have sideways motion. If I wanted that, I would build a piston the other way. Its creating an insane amount of problems and if not removed it should at the very least, be something you can turn off. The same problem is apparent in "Rotors". There is currently no way to make pistons rigid as force are applied even if you turn the sliders all the way down or turn the dam things off.

I'm adding a picture of a simple build that proves my point. Make sure you also finish building the modules as some collision issues don't start happening until its actually built.
