Help with rotators on heavy turrets

2,738 GeneralPatrick2  4.7 years ago

So, I've been having issues with rotators and heavy stuff. I'm trying to make a battleship turret, and the turret is about 127 thousand pounds. There is one rotator connected to the bottom that connects to the base, and I need to figure out how to make it strong enough for the turret, because when I rotate the turret it wobbles and doesn't move smoothly. I don't want to lighten the turret, because it is realistic-ish, but if that's the only solution then I will.

    Remove all mass of your turret. Set every single piece's mass from your turret to 0

    @GeneralPatrick2 mm alright, otherwise try just amplifying the tricks

    @Minecraftpoweer alright, i think it worked, i'm pretty sure the remaining wobble is just from a lack of a large enough base, gonna put it on something larger and see how it does

    Increase mass on turret and use damperMultiplier try 50 and then just increase until it works fine. Might slow down rotation depending on how high it is, then just compensate for that.
