[Legacy] Conveyor Hinges - transfer items flexibly

Omschrijving
This mod adds 3 blocks that are basically advanced rotors with different mounting points.

SE v1.195 now has hinge blocks
That means this mod is no longer necessary, I've briefly played around with the vanilla ones and they seem well made and dealt with the issues I've encountered with this (like attaching the other way around).
So this is now legacy, it will not be deleted but it will probably also not be updated, so convert to the vanilla ones :P

And for fans of the models:
Conveyor Hinges - model replacement for vanilla


Features
- 3 hinges, 2 for small grid and 1 for large grid.
- Terminal access directly on the block.
- Tube animations when turning + tube ragdoll when top part is missing.
- Same torque, mass and components as vanilla rotors (resulting in same strength and behavior, last checked v1.194).
- Rotation direction and angle steps on the models that are also self-lit (emissive).
- Collisions are smaller than the full block to allow fitting in tight spaces.
- Contains construction models, LODs and paintable.

Limitations/Notes
- PCU set to 100 for base and 1 for top (same as vanilla in v1.194).
- Lower and upper limit sliders are capped to -90 to 90 degrees.
- Attaching only allows the hinge tops to connect and checks for orientation too, otherwise clang happens (the orange stripes on one side determine the proper orientation).
- No "add small top part" button for large ones because the models don't visually fit, you can still connect them manually but I don't recommend it.
- No displacement.


Thanks
Harag - for his blender addon and for his provided help to get me started with modelling SE.
Arindel - for suggesting grading and providing the raw grading image (in the old models)

mod io?
No, because of the scripts[gist.github.com]
And without the scripts it's pointless, hinges are vanilla and this would look bad without the script controlling the parts.

I remember, when this mod arrived....it changed everything. Thank you for that!

Yeah, turn rotor off and make sure brake torque is 0, then it moves freely. This applies to all rotors, including hinges (this and vanilla ones too).

Its a rotor, what can a rotor do? Passively it will do exactly what everything does... follow gravity to its least resistant state and sit. Forever

would this work as a passive thing instead of trying to manually move the conveyor? cause i wanna make a snake ship and i want it to move freely

Friggin Awesome! Thanks Digi!!

Thanks! It's the flexible tubes along with the angles on the side that does it for me

I've made a separate mod that replaces the vanilla models with these ones (tweaked to have same orientation, same colliders as vanilla, simplified script just for animation, no changes to mounts/comps/etc)

I think there's still value in using this mod as a reskin kinda mod. The model for this mod in my opinion looks better than the vanilla hinge

Today when i used your hinges i noticed how rubber part follow the moving part.
That is neat detail.
Using your rubber trick you can make suspension that can extend like piston.
Basically the base of suspension will have piston like moving part that stretch and you can extend wheel more far without need large base like vanilla suspension have.
Similiar like this guy done but it is missing sretchy part
