sponge that sticks to walls but can be pulled and dragged

Archive: 8 posts


i've always hated the fact that when you pull a block of sponge along to climb onto something it often tips over if you don't land on it properly. it irritated me so much that i solved the issue today! put a microchip on the block of sponge to keep things tidy. then on your microchip put a grab switch. put a not gate, a material tweaker and a timer on there too. attach the grab switch to the not gate, the not gate to the timer (set to 1.5) and the timer to the material tweaker (change the settings to sticky) now run another wire from the grab switch to the reset on the timer. DONE. no more tipping sponge.

edit: the reason for the timer is that if you don't have it the sponge can end up on it's edge because the stickiness kicks in immediately when you let go

er... i never thought of that. this was more fun though i'm sure there is an advantage to making something stuck fast though. you would still be able to push the sponge with a gyro on it.

Just reduce the gyro strength when grabbed. Kind of like your original set up. I had to set this up for a rock I wanted to always land a specific way, stay like that everytime.

yeah, but would the gyro allow you to stick a block to the wall when fired from the creatinator?

Mmm... i think you need to change the topic header to: "Stop that sponge tipping!... and make it stick to a wall when fired from a creatinator" then.
j/k
