Several years ago, Tigrounette added joints into the map editor, opening a new door of possibilities with mechanism maps. Unfortunately, he only permitted joints to be made through manually editing the HTML code, which is typically a confusing and aggravating process. To help alleviate the stress, I decided to share some joint tricks with you all today. This guide is intended for those with at least basic knowledge about joints. If you would like to learn from scratch, I recommend the joint tutorials listed here

Note: The examples show each block labeled with its respective Z index. If you want to copy+paste the codes into map editor, you can just directly copy the entire quotes (no need to remove dark comments). The codes get progressively harder, with 1 being the easiest and 9 being the hardest:

1. Basic Up-Down Movement
Example
https://i.gyazo.com/9d683d870b5585e07b6a5a715d5ca4ed.gif
Code

a dit :

<C><P /><Z><S><S X="404" L="810" H="15" c="1" Y="398" T="0" P="0,0,0.3,0.2,0,0,0,0" /><S P="1,100000,0.3,0.2,0,1,0,0" L="41" o="324650" H="45" c="3" Y="242" T="12" X="205" /><S P="1,999999,0.3,0.2,0,0,0,0" L="10" o="324650" H="10" Y="170" T="12" X="204" /></S><D><DS Y="377" X="368" /></D><O><O C="11" Y="200" P="0" X="204" /></O><L>

<JP M1="1" M2="0" AXIS="0,1" /> // Ensures the lower ground only moves along Y-axis

<JR M1="2" P1="204,200" MV="Infinity,1.2" /> // Makes the upper ground spin at a speed of 1.2 around 204,200 (red nail)

<JD M2="2" M1="1" /> // Keeps the two grounds a strict distance apart at all times

</L></Z></C>



2. Basic Side-to-Side Movement
Example
https://i.gyazo.com/47e628d2cd7fdb38b3278fa05f5f8777.gif
Code

a dit :
<C><P /><Z><S><S P="0,0,0.3,0.2,0,0,0,0" L="810" X="404" c="1" Y="398" T="0" H="15" /><S X="407" L="41" o="324650" H="45" c="3" Y="259" T="12" P="1,100000,0.3,0.2,0,1,0,0" /><S L="10" o="324650" H="10" X="233" Y="259" T="12" P="1,999999,0.3,0.2,0,0,0,0" /></S><D><DS Y="377" X="368" /></D><O><O C="11" Y="259" X="275" P="0" /></O><L>

<JR M1="2" P1="275,259" MV="Infinity,1.2" /> // Makes Ground #2 spin at a speed of 1.2 around point 275,259 (red nail)

<JD M2="2" M1="1" /> // Keeps the two grounds a strict distance apart at all times

</L></Z></C>



3. Infinite Movement
*Note: If you want to do this, make sure you make a ground 0 with -1 mass

That's all the mech I've prepared for now, I hope this was able to help some people! I may add more in the future if there's another cool trick worth sharing. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to comment or message me.

Nice mechanisms °o°
Sherrwagn a dit :
he only permitted joints to be made through manually editing the XML code

Do you know this editor?, joints are very easy to make here:

I'm kinda late, but congrats Sherr, awesome tutorial!
Sherr a dit :
[...]you can just directly copy the entire quotes (no need to remove dark comments).[...]

Just as a quick note: you can load the XMLs on the map editor just fine, but if you don't remove those dark comments, the game won't recognize them as a valid syntax and you won't be able to export your map.
