Combustion Piston Engine

Adds in parts that allow for a "Combustion Piston Engine." When activated, a force is applied to both sides of the piston/slider. Use the "pipe force" parts on each end of the slider. The side with the kink in it should be the side connected to the slider. Hook the two pipe force parts up as you would the piston in a normal engine. Some piston stretch is required, as when the slider is compressed too much, it can cause problems. --------------------------------- EXPLANATION --------------------------------- Simply put, the piston in the center applies no force, it is just there to keep everything together; it acts as a slider. The pipe pieces on each end of the piston are a heavily modified version of the spudgun. They apply a strong force which drops off quickly over time, and the force is only applied to expand the piston, not contract it. This approach has advantages and disadvantages. Only applying a force on one stroke and not the other leads to generally worse torque when compared to a standard motor. The drop-off also allows for it to stall. However these aspects lead to much higher rpms than you can get with a standard, non-blueprint edited piston engine, as well as smoother power delivery. Something like a 1 cylinder motor in this mod will do 900rpm. Sadly the disadvantages are amplified by inherent flaws of Scrap Mechanic, mainly the lack of any practical gearing. No gearing means that engines like these have to run at low rpms, which isn't too much of a problem for a standard piston engine, but is for these. Running at higher rpms also will cause torque along the body of something like a vehicle, so in practice, you cannot actually run engines at all that high of rpms without them flipping over (with a longitudinally mounted engine). It makes sense from a realism standpoint. If you tried to run a real engine at 300rpm, it would make terrible power and stall immediately. It's mostly just meant to be a fun mod to play around with, which attempts to more closely represent a real combustion engine. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Comes with 8 creations I have made personally, 6 engines, a car, and a tractor. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3275329865 Feel free to recommend any ideas for the mod!
