it is not starting up for me
how do i fix it

how to release the pressure?

hey there is something wrong with the engine it just stops and go when i move

I'm afraid what's left after I got done with it has none of the authenticity you gave it. The lifeboat and flying bridge are gone, the condenser's gone and a bunch of desalinators with exposed pipes are cluttering up areas that were once neat and tidy. I also cheated by putting in an electric furnace and high-geared large generator, which produces more electricity than the electric furnace uses, so it has unlimited range. I feel like uploading my version would be wrong, given the care you took to make it look as real as you could.

i have no idea how to trim them back there is 2 of them on the boat and one on the life boat. if you delete the one on the lifeboat and one from the boat it might do what you need to do. i got those parts as a xml from a friend so i have no idea if there is a way to reduce the power. this was a quick build so it has some issues. if you fix the issues or make it better feel free to upload it

@bpratt4306 add flywheels to the drivetrain. This happens because it is a piston engine, and piston engines need flywheels to smooth out their rhythms so they don't shake you to pieces. This is why your car has one. I find that 2 or 3 3x3 flywheels smooths it out nicely.

Note that flywheels don't connect to normal pipes on both sides. You need modular clutches to bridge the gap. Put a modular clutch on each end of your flywheels, with the pipe-looking side facing the pipe. The other side faces the flywheels. Then set a constant number thingy somewhere, set to 1. There may already be one lying around you can use, as long as it's set to 1 you're golden, and link it to both clutches with the green line. That will keep the flywheels permanently working, saving up energy when each piston gives its 'push' and releasing it when the pistons are not pushing, smoothing out your overall motion.

Be warned this will also make the engine more efficient and you'll go a lot faster. Be ready for it.

Wtf did you do with the lifeboat and the spinny thing behind the pistons?! I've identified them as what makes the ship largely immune to physics. What glitches are you using, how does it work? And how can I trim them back just a bit, let me feel the virtual ocean a little, without turning it into a helpless cork on the water?

You have infinite fuel on

why did my engine explode 2 minutes after i launched
EightHorse8357 5 Jun, 2023 @ 4:42am 
mee too i use microcontroler from workshop.
But Hull  [author] 5 Jun, 2023 @ 1:20am 
I have 2000+ hours and i can only make very basic MC s I usually use stuff i get from workshops for more complicated stuff
EightHorse8357 3 Jun, 2023 @ 10:29am 
@But Hull i learn modular engines and i can bulid modular engines this is so easy but hardest to learn for me is microcontroler
But Hull  [author] 27 May, 2023 @ 4:43pm 
i dont think so
bpratt4306 27 May, 2023 @ 4:37pm 
Is there a way to fix the RPS dropping and then rising? I know someone else asked, but I just wanted to know if there is a way.
But Hull  [author] 26 May, 2023 @ 2:33am 
Yes it does you need to lift it with the crane infornt of the life raft and use hand cranks to move. If you sit at the very back seat of ot the paddles move too
Nugget 25 May, 2023 @ 7:55pm 
does the lifeboat work
Steelshot 20 May, 2023 @ 3:31pm 
I got the "Orca" Reference :Khappy:
Hazelnut!! [she/her] 3 May, 2023 @ 1:46pm 
Nah I'm good, you need them more
But Hull  [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 9:38am

Hazelnut!! [she/her] 3 May, 2023 @ 7:11am 
Here have a little more
But Hull  [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 2:16am 
Hahaha Thanks alot
Hazelnut!! [she/her] 3 May, 2023 @ 12:51am 
Take some more points
But Hull  [author] 2 May, 2023 @ 11:16am 
Thanj you very much glad you like it
Swooper Villain 2 May, 2023 @ 11:10am 
the detail on this is insane, the layout is perfect
But Hull  [author] 2 May, 2023 @ 4:09am 
Thank you really appreciate it. happy to hear you like it that much
Hazelnut!! [she/her] 2 May, 2023 @ 4:07am 
Take my points
But Hull  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 8:49am 
Thank you very much

i put it in the 5 star vehicles collection
Tyler 1 May, 2023 @ 8:12am 
this vehicle is now 5 star
EightHorse8357 1 May, 2023 @ 4:03am 
thanks
But Hull  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 4:02am 
my 1 recommendation to you would be to learn modular engines. Thanks you too
EightHorse8357 1 May, 2023 @ 3:59am 
ok i start bulid in this game. Have a nice day :)
But Hull  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 3:49am 
Thank you. Its not hard i would say more time consuming
EightHorse8357 1 May, 2023 @ 3:48am 
Good work. ship is beautifull. I have a question is it hard to bulid to you or no?
But Hull  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 1:07am 
There is a Gen output you might be looking at that. since its my first steam engine ever it might struggle maintaining rps but it should work just fine
PrimeTime913 30 Apr, 2023 @ 6:03pm 
Dont know if i did something wrong but i followed the start up steps and the engine output goes up and down randomly
Lowhydro124 30 Apr, 2023 @ 1:58pm 
Ok.
But Hull  [author] 30 Apr, 2023 @ 1:25pm 
if you leave the doors open in strong waves it will
Lowhydro124 30 Apr, 2023 @ 1:06pm 
can it sink?
But Hull  [author] 30 Apr, 2023 @ 9:12am 
Thanks man
GI Jim 30 Apr, 2023 @ 9:05am

krikkiTricky 30 Apr, 2023 @ 6:40am 
plizzzzzzz add a radio now:steamsad:
krikkiTricky 30 Apr, 2023 @ 6:40am 
u talked about radio room for the ship right:steambored:
krikkiTricky 30 Apr, 2023 @ 6:38am 
did you add a radio now :steamhappy:
