Real battleships had such a setup against torpedoes but with variable properties, namely more space and less metal towards the bottom. You may want to invert this though, since thick metal protects against HE and space protects against HEAT. Clipping the shields into the 'skin' may also work to save engine power, but I'm not positive it works against rounds that have already hit.

Do you even suspension geometrics?
The axis of the springs its linear, and the movement of the suspension parts are like a push rod, like the front most of the F1 cars.
when the suspensio goes down, the distance between the front wheel expands, wich contradic the linear movement from the springs.

Does this works??

Penis pump wont make your dick bigger.

It will cause fluid to gather though after a few hours, so your dick will look all lumpy and swollen. Theres a thread in /d/ right now all about pumping your balls to get super huge.

After some time spent minmaxing, I'm not able to get more than 475min 500max power out of a 3x3x5 space with RTGs. My setup is a 3x3RTG and three 2m RTG, one electric engine, the rest 11 blocks of battery. Does anybody have a better setup?

At this point wouldn't it be simpler to use a big injector engine?
>>
>>143728990
I can get much better PPB out of a fuel engine for most reasonable runtimes, but I'm trying to git gud at RTGs.
>>
>>143729108
Here's a solution:
build bote
add as much RTGs at it can hold
add batteries
make it supply other botes with power
>>
>>143729335
I'm trying to optimize power output for the RTGs, I can already get bote boting on RTGs just fine. Outsourcing the RTGs also still doesn't solve the ratio problem. Which I really am just going to have to do calc on, I guess.
>>
For any given system of N blocks, where X blocks are electric engines, Y blocks are RTGs, and Z blocks are batteries, the equation for stable power output is given by:
f(x,y,z) = max(z/10,g(Y)) where g(Y) is the total electrical engine output Y blocks worth of RTG can support.
Now all I need to do is figure out what the flying fuck g(Y) is and it's simple math from there.
>>
>>143730136
Correction, z/20.

>>
>>143731042
>vlc
>>
>>143730136
>>143730384
Correction again, Z*50. I care about battery blocks, not battery capacity.

A 2m RTG stabilizes at an output of 30.
2 2m RTGs stabilize at an output of 61.
A 4m RTG stabilizes at an output of 61.
g(Y) will be assumed to be Y*15.

This means that the total power output of a system is max(Z*50, Y*15)/(X+Y+Z). The only reason to not have X be 1 is redundancy, so I'll remove X from consideration. I'm only concerned with the battery:RTG ratio anyways.
Hence, I need to find the maxima of the piecewise function
f(Y,Z) = {
Y*15/(Y+Z) | Y*3<=Z*10
Z*50/(Y+Z) | Y*3>=Z*10
}
>>
>>143731232
what part of
>because i'm retarded/lazy/it just doesn't work
do you not understand?
i still use vlc because i can't be assed to learn anything more.
and because i've never really needed to convert things before.

And i'm not fucking learning ffmpeg commands.
>>
>>143731235
I get partials of
d/dy = 15*Z/((Y+Z)^2)
d/dz = -15*Y/((Y+Z)^2)
and
d/dy = -50*Z/((Y+Z)^2)
d/dz = 50*Y/((Y+Z)^2)
Neither of these sets ever equal, so I'm only concerned about my boundary points. The only valid boundary point I have is Y*3=Z*10, as Y or Z equaling 0 would mean no output.

Hence I conclude that the optimum ratio for RTG power is three blocks of battery for every ten blocks of RTG, and will output 150 power for every thirteen blocks thus committed. This results in a PPB (ignoring electric engines) of 11.53.

MATH!

>>
>>143731817
As an addendum, having a spare battery block or two is a good thing and is necessary to actually sustain peak output because RTGs don't output a constant stream.

Comfy view from inside the cab I was in the process of building as I walked over to my other stuff.

Also, it's flatgrass. There's eventually invisible walls but it's a truly huge place. Several minutes to run from side to side. I went from (roughly) the middle to the edge when I was setting up this walker and messing with running and that took forever.

So you dont have to worry like with saline/pumping about going out in public the next day with a huge obvious melon in your pants. Its also fucking amazing because when you pump up really tight, if even fills your dick up like a balloon. Suddenly EVERYTHING is filled up tight and is stimulated by the internal pressure pushing outwards. Its hard to describe, but it feels really fucking good.

>N20 can also be dangerous if you use it like a retard and just blast pressurized gas into yourself at full blast. Its best to use a pressure regulator turned down really low, and just take it easy to fill up nice and slow.
