TB
5 Piece U-turn.

Blatant rip off, I know. :p

Already been done a page back :D

Also, how do I rename URL tags?

Edit} I thought I would have a go at trying U-turn in TB's original style u-turn using as few wheels as possible.

Edit}

Not as cool or as smooth but here it is with two wheels. While the ball is free and not connected to the main stucture, it plays a key roll in keeping the frame off the ground going up the slope, remove the red ball from its start point to see what I mean.

U-turn is quite clearly no challenge for the mechanincs genius's of GTPlanet, so I thought lets set ourself a new challenge, who can get the ball into the goal and then back into the start area succesfully?

I don't know if its possible but I guess we are going to find out right :D

[edit] that was foolish, it is definetly possible.

Clever stuff - all the plans I had already realized.


Also, did you ever get the feeling that there's a point to Full-up that we're missing? That big ball there never gets used... until now. Full-up, as god intended. :dopey:

EDIT: And don't you hate it when complicated solutions to old problems are kept in the level, even though they're no longer necessary? As Intended, V2.

My continues machine on U Turn:

The Triangle of DOOM

The idea is the same as the O > U solution TB linked to, but getting it to work with a triagle is a little trickier...
