Still somewhat buggy...
A trebuchet (French trébuchet) is a type of catapult, a common type of siege engine which uses a swinging arm to throw a projectile.
The traction trebuchet, also referred to as a mangonel at times, first appeared in Ancient China during the 4th century BC as a siege weapon. It spread westward, probably by the Avars, and was adopted by the Byzantines in the mid 6th century AD. It uses manpower to swing the arm.
The later counterweight trebuchet, also known as the counterpoise trebuchet, uses a counterweight to swing the arm. It appeared in both Christian and Muslim lands around the Mediterranean in the 12th century, and made its way back to China via Mongol conquests in the 13th century.

Id like to say that you didnt need a second detacher with the new part customizer i got it to reliably work just by changing the third hinge rotator from the arms health value down to ten it would then detach perfectly and would launch it a significant distance i know this is a old post but id like to assure you your design is perfect
@kukimuki1234 na, the first blurb was
@MrDoolittle Well it is WIP. And was the last sentence sarcastic?
You know it’s superior when you can destroy it in a fiery explosion with just wood and iron from just being a bit off with the release.
But seriously great build
@kukimuki1234 preko veze brate, preko veze. Po Srpski XD
@EternalDarkness Svejedno,moraš ga restartovati da bi ga napunio,ali otkud da si ti moderator?
Eksplodira svaki put, treba da onemogućiš sudare na nekim delovima. Mada, nije loše odrađeno.
@mikoyanster @BogdanX @Gestour What do you guys think about this?
