  1. Go for it, if your submission is a wheel and it rolls! Of course if it is not very ingenuitive or awesome then it wont get a high I+A score.
  2. Interesting use of landing legs there! They must help to absorb some of the bumps. I have placed you onto the leaderboard!
  3. cool design with the landing legs! I will put in 17.5 m/s if it can go that fast without anything breaking. It doesn't matter too much how long you can sustain that speed.
  4. Awesome! I have added you to the leaderboard! I will however need to see a screencap which includes your top speed. (If you don't want 'Unconfirmed' next to your score) How did you make the axels? I see some landing gear there...
  5. your top speed score will only count up to the point where your wheel stops being a wheel and starts being a sled. So it has to be able to roll to count, yes. However, if your wheel rolls until a certain speed and then starts to 'stick' or 'slide' or stops functioning as a wheel. It is that speed which will be your 'top speed'. hope that helps... Also, Veio, I have added you to the leaderboard with 25.7 m/s as your wheel broke at that speed. Awesome work though!
  6. Awesome stuff! I shall put you on the leaderboard. This is actually a lot like the design I'm working on (I got rid of the landing gear)
  7. haha, Jeb and bill are having an interesting time, I shall put you on the leaderboard. I think i will add a requirement for a screenshot of the top speed.
  8. Haha, Yeah, its a bit silly of me. I am trying a couple of different designs. I would love to see your design
  9. You can go ahead and put some probe cores down, get a top speed and i will put you on the leaderboard. But your ingenuity and awesomeness score will be non-existent and When people look at your 'wheel' they will not be impressed. The point of this challenge is to get the creative juices flowing! I am leaving the challenge open to interpretation as I'm trying to allow creative freedom. If someone wants to post something uncreative, so be it. I doubt it will be impresive though
  10. Here is an example submission (My submission). I will not give myself an I+A score as I do not want a biased score. Top speed: 15.8 m/s (on a good day) Unfortunately, I happened to have a previous attempt on the runway... Disaster followed...
  11. Re-Design the Wheel Most of us are familiar with the rover wheels in the game, they are lovely, round and look cool. This challenge involves creating your own wheel! Much like the stock helicopter seen below, you will (probably) need to build some form of bearing so that you can have a rotating part as a wheel. Remember, this challenge only requires that you build a functional wheel, you do not NEED to build an entire rover using these wheels. You could even build a craft inside a form of wheel! Just as long as it rolls! (EDIT: I would ask that you do not use in-game wheels in the creation of your wheel, as it defeats the point) Ranking There will be a ranking system composed of two scores, each score with its own leaderboard: 1. Top speed 2. Ingenuity + Awesomeness The first score is relatively straight forward. For your top speed to count your wheel must stay in one piece. If, for example, your wheel achieves 14 m/s then breaks a strut or engine or structural part (or any part for that matter) but then goes on to achieve speeds in excess of 20 m/s. Your top speed will be set at 14 m/s. The second score (Ingenuity + Awesomeness) will be ranked in 's with the maximum rank being 10/10 's (If you don't agree with my rating of a crafts Ingenuity + Awesomeness score, then say so with your reasoning and the score will be revised) I will require a screenshot of your craft and another showing its top speed. (If you show the craft in your top speed screenshot then there is no need for a second screenshot) If you do not provide a screenshot of your top speed, I will put 'Unconfirmed' next to your score.
