Recognized ball joint?

[kingreaper1234]

maby you could add a ball joint rail, that way you could idk shoot a cannon from multiple camera angles

Elaborate.
How would it work?
how would it allow you to shoo`t from multiple camera angles?
and so on

 

[kingreaper1234]

it could allow whatever is attached to it to move 360 degrees in almost any direction. when added to others it could form something like an arm to hold whatever you put on it

you can already create this using curret rail system,I did this,and many others

i have a verry hard time with this kind of thing so maby a tutorial or a video?

Oh yeah,it should be very easy,I dont have a vid(Cant find right now) to show this,but just make a sphere turret or whichever shape you want,place rail docker in the center of the sphere turret,and just make a normal horizontal and vertical axis turret rotators. then dock it there. it will rotate 360 easy.

so basically what we can do with two turret rail blocks?

Ok, this is really just a turret, just have a turret axis sideways on another turret axis.

The arm thing is different. You could make extending arms in combonation with logic rotators, but full ball-joint actionfigure like rotation would be more dificult. Sphere turrets half in the hull can show the basic rotation, but making a logic working system that way would be very extensive.

thank you verry much

id be all for a ball joint of some sort. 'we can do it already' sure..with like 6 blocks minimum, and if you're willing to sacrifice looks on smaller builds with SM's 1 block = 1 meter. giving them a full range of motion would probably make turret axis blocks redundant, though

i made a semi-tutorial video on this very subject

Seems to me as if you want something similar to the old docking method.
