What's that supposed to mean?

Re: Fantastic Contraption
We got some real damn engineers here.... Heh all my designs consisted of 80% luck and about four-five clockwise spinning balls attached with wood or water and just a peice of wood dragging the red block/ball into the zone... That curve tank was pretty impressive though same as the 4 balls though.. Game could become the computers version of crack..

Re: Fantastic Contraption
Thanks. I had it running smoother, but I accidentally clicked the delete tool instead of move and threw something out of whack.
I'm trying tracked vehicles now:

Re: Fantastic Contraption
It's fun trying to build the most inefficient possible solution.
And also to make tanks. : )

Re: Fantastic Contraption
