    Yet another car factory

    Track: Finnish car factory
    Creator: mutetus
    Type: Trials
    Difficulty: Hard
    Tags: Realistic, Physics, Themed, Mechanisms
    Released: 17/07/2012

    I wanted to make realistic machinery, not just simple animations. Unfortunately I couldn't fit in everything I wanted because the frame rate started dropping fast and I apologize for any frame rate drops, they seem to be completely random and impossible to solve. Last thing I tried to do was to lay a piece of pipe on the ground and that ruined it completely so it's pretty much at the limits.

    Here's a little tour (the camera didn't capture some of the details):

    Animations sound so OPE...
    Actually I built stepper motors for the robots so I can program them easily to do something else, i.e. there are no area triggers to determine the position, just variables to tell where to go next. One mistake was to make everything with fuzzy logic so it's hard to know afterwards which parameters to change and there's one program for each movement, that could have been easily done with variable arrays (if they existed in the editor). The last robot holding the car was actually functional at first, but I had to remove it because it was like looking at still photos in the end
