Making a Supersonic Jet in Besiege

Alright, I have another vote for you all. "Nuclear" missile, or orbital cannon?

You are a medieval farmer. You hear a loud explosion outisde your abode. You go outside to see, expecting a cannon, but instead, it is a fighter jet, launching several missiles at your small cottage

Reid capitan: the plane doesn't have landing gear and it isn't realistic Also reid capitan: makes a bomber plane in medieval times

Supersonic jet made out of iron bracings and wooden planks, powered by heated water Besiege in a nutshell

The fact that you were able to create something that not only works but also looks like an actual fighter jet in a game like besiege is insane. Well done, reid!

Reid is just like Archimedes during the siege of Syracuse. Instead of building a curved mirror to focus the sunlight on enemy ships to burn them, he just built a supersonic jet that shoots missiles.

I just got done watching him make a helicopter in besiege and now i am watching a supersonic jet being made

With the vacuum blocks you can actually make something similar to a rail gun

I like how he appears to have accidentally made a decent, if stubby, Su-27 Flanker

The spring mechanic is very similar to how they launch jets off of aircraft carriers! It seemed unintentional but if you did know, good on ya!

Imagine you are a medieval farmer and seeing a wooden F22 Raptor with seeking missiles fly above your head

That stubby (MiG-29) Fulcrum imitation looks....kinda cute😅

The homing missile was awesome, it would be really cool if you developed counter measures for it too somehow

You should use steering rotators instead of the rotating block, because it has a limited angle and can return to center for your elevons and ailerons

the more it looked like an Sukhoi the more i smiled

Holy crap, he actually made it look like a plane this time.

Using those vacuum blocks as missile guidance is really clever :O

So I haven't touched Besiege in years. However, I still remember a lot of neat building tips from even way back when. You can make RTC controls using two pistons pushing a hinge on the side of a pivot. What this allows is for you to go straight into certain angles without having to deal with turn blocks. Though I guess logic has improved those. Another thing is the classic "stick some powered wheels to each other and then put propellers on the end" engine. The biggest benefit is that you can have some of the wheels on different controls so you can have things like taxi speed, cruise speed, and afterburner speed. Getting the propellers laying against the final wheel can be finicky but finicky describes Besiege most of the time anyways.

4:20 To be fair, I have yet to see a plane that is rated for crashing into a mountain.

Genuinely amazes me every time I watch one of your videos. You’re a genius. No other explanation needed.
