What I've been trying to figure out is how to make something move and burst into the direction you choose, Just exactly like the hamstertron2000 (The hamster thing that rolls around in the Avalon level and when you use it in the last level) (you press R1 and it shoots you in the direction your stick is in) I even unlocked it and tried to "dissect" the thing to see how it works. The thing is though there were so many chips and set ups they had the thing, All i was trying to look for was the ability to burst into one direction, And i couldn't find it anywhere on the thing. IF anyone has any tutorials or ways of doing this, It would be a big help to me.

A joystick rotator can point a piece of bolted material in the direction of a stick, and a mover set to use local space attached to this bolted material lets you apply a force in the direction the material is pointing.

I tried setting up the joy stick rotator to the updown/left right on the left stick, and only to turn it on when i press the R1 button, But it continues to spin and not point in the direction my stick is in...,

Rocket rotator points an object in the direction that it is going, depending on the design one layer could be dedicated to a rocket rotator, that would keep it's facing while being moved, and a timed rocket connected to your boost button. Let me know how it works.

I think i have most of the problem solved, I'm using the hologram material, which works for the joystick rotator because now its pointing in the direction i choose. The only problem now is that the mover is only working on the bolted material and not the whole thing.

Been attempting to get a sackbot to do the same thing. I can get it to burst in one direction, and have gotten it to go in the opposite direction when I apply the left stick. However I'd rather it simply burst left or right when I'm running left or right, and only burst for a short time. It does this in the right direction, but continues until it runs into something going in the left direction.

If you use a joystick rotator, you have to connect both the up-down and left-right inputs, or it won't work. Also, to stop it from swinging around after you let go of the stick, you can use a dampener, a gravity tweaker with about 20% dampening should do it. But if you want the boost to go in the direction you're already moving, the suggestion to use a rocket rotator is better. Finally, hologram material doesn't excert force on 'physical' material, so you have to make it out of something else, and stick it to the back if you don't want people to see.
