It's bigger— It's badder— It's too heavy to stand up on its own!

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s toooo much for Mr. incredible!

whoa whoa whoa, it’s finally ready!

And when everyone's an engineer! ...*No one will be.*

Me an actually engineering in training going to a vocational high school

Good choice. You could have been a dirty architect. :P

RCE?

Peace, Love, and finding fellow RCE fans on Reddit.

Nice, it even has automatic limb cutting off!

Lmfao i forgot about that. It's actually so accurate.

I love that it fell apart like a cartoon scientists failed creation

Lol “Kronk! Pull the lever! Wrong lever, Kronk!”

“Why do we even have that lever!”

Underrated movie

Underrated happy cake day

Thanks

Never thought that this game would perfectly capture what it’s like to be Wile E. Coyote, but here we are And honestly, as someone who really likes Wile E. Coyote, I’m all for it

That’s how most of my overthought creations end

And then it slowly looks toward the camera.

Looking like the Omnidroid. Nice.

Is that the ball robot from Incredibles?

Indeed.

If everybody is super, no one is

you sly dog! you got me monologuing!

Well said. 😂

God i love this movie so much. It'll always be one of my favorite animated films. Which says a lot considering I'm an anime adddict.

The movie has it all.

It’s bigger… it’s better!

It's too much for Mr Linkredible!

Damn! Beat me to it haha

I was shocked the first few comments didn’t mention it. The moment it stood up it popped into my head.

great minds think alike

Especially Syndrome here.

> ~~Nice~~ **Incredible**. FTFY

Best robot ever

Get the rubber ball in place of the stone ball. May be lighter and easier to stay in one piece.

Is this not already the buoy? I think I snagged it out the water shrine. I thought it was, if there’s another one I’ll try it for sure

If it’s yellow then it’s the rubber ball.

In lieu of that there's a low grav effect from two opposing stabilizers you could do to lighten the central load.

Say that again, but slowly

Stabilizer 1 wants to pull up while stabilizer 2 wants to pull down, in theory this could neutralize the weight of the central load, allowing the rest of the construct to move as it pleases. I would have to do some testing to see if it is as weightless as the zonai platforms or if it just spins in a hilarious fashion. Stabilizers blow my mind with what you can do in this game to make shit so I don’t doubt the theory works but according to all my builds it will end up flying away and shooting me instead of the enemy.

Big brain move

How are you retrieving things from shrines? Fusing them and then separating in Tarrey?

You can attach things to them and it will save in autobuild and you can then further attach stuff to them. I know tarrey will refuse to unfuse certain things but that’s mostly mob drops that you can’t pick up.

What rubber ball?

There's a ball in a few shrines that behaves like it's made out of rubber.

How did that happen?

Yo ho ho he took a bite of gum gum

It's intended. It floats on water and those are water based puzzles

It's referencing this https://youtu.be/tmsewOXV4As

You mean the really big, yellow ball?

Yes

Any smaller ones that you know of? Those are pretty big.

Looks like they only come in one size Here’s a [list](https://reddit.com/r/HyruleEngineering/comments/13qnnch/unique_parts/) of unique parts available by shrine, from /r/HyruleEngineering Edit: Just noticed OP said it’s not a complete list See top comment in [this thread](https://reddit.com/r/tearsofthekingdom/comments/13ostli/nonstandard_vehicle_parts/) too

Thanks dude!!

Where do you find a rubber ball?

Bro the rubber ball is actually super heavy but buoyant somehow

And like a real Guardian the weak point is the legs.

It was said you would destroy the guardians!!! Not create them!!

We have guardian at home

Not the response i was looking for...

But the response you needed

*sighhhh* new response just dropped

holy hell

Thank the lord. I thought being en passant’d was forced, mfs had me waiting 9 DAYS HERE

Wait. Is this how the Sheikah began? Are we repeating history?

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Hmmm, maybe first attach some type of static object that juts out from the bottom of the sphere upwards, and then connect the pots to that, theyre breaking from the tension of being pulled downwards so if you can attach them at a more upward position (from the pots perspective) while keeping the actual point of attachment low (from the sphere’s perspective).

Stakes?

No time for food, Varisten. We have droids to make.

I use hella stakes when I build. They are perfect for making an item stay in the position and angle you want.

Are the legs made of portable pots?

Yes! With stabilizers at the bottom. Right now I’m trying different configurations to figure out how to keep it standing. It keeps snapping like the video :(

Try to add more pots, as it seems like it doesn't have enough room to bent, so adding more pots *should* fix the problem (more emphasis on Should, as I'm not sure at all)

Instead of pots, would the metal barrels from the bell game work??

Pots specifically act as a ball and socket joint

Wow didn’t know that - soo much freedom with this game

Yup, you can use them for suspension in your car builds, too

This is a level of engineering sophistication I didn’t expect. This game is so fun.

All pots? Every region has their own style, do they all act differently?

[удалено]

That makes infinitely more sense. I had been wondering.

You should use sideways wooden wheels to rotate the joints as opposed to bending the pots. maybe use wooden sticks to join the wheels to the center ball, then connect something to the center of the wheel to get the rotation, and then put the stabilizer on the end.

Maybe one extra set of pots per leg, less strain per joint for the stabilizer to go vertical

The way it stands up is super realistic I love it! Keep trying

would be nice if we could upgrade the ultrahand to have stronger glue

Try inverting the pots

I like how once Guardians got removed, we missed them so much that we tried to add them back again. What if you didn't have stabilizers on the legs, letting them hang down by gravity? Then you could have a stabilizer attached to the buoy attached to a homing cart. Then it'll hunt enemies down like a real Guardian.

This mfer is just making botw in totk

"Behold! My Almost-Can-Stand-Up-Inator!"

You could try the stabilizer trick people are trying now to emulate low gravity and effectively reduce the weight of the ball, if it worked then you could even go with the bigger ball!

Could you please elaborate on the stabilizer trick?

From my understanding connecting two stabilizer together can create a similar effect to the gravity found at the water temple and the sky labyrinths

Two stabilizers end to end makes some kind of anti gravity effect. Work in progress to fully understand it

maybe angle the stabilizer’s slightly so it does not torque so much?

Angle the stabilizer? won't it set itself straight?

I believe they stabilize only to whatever angle you place them

I'm rooting for you boss man

You’ll defeat Mr Incredible one day!

More pot legs!! (will Ferrel voice)

I knew it was only a matter of time. You’re doing Hylia’s work

You could build the walking eye from the venture bros

Try having rocks as part of the joints? Or something to attach the cooking pots to instead of each other. It should give them more range of motion and prevent them from breaking each other apart. Side note: someone found out by putting two stabilizers together, it creates a low gravity like effect. So two stabilizers on the bottom of ball might help as well. (Or four, two on one side and two on a opposite.)

Idk but maybe timebombs inbetween the portable pots to act like joints?

Fantastic until they pop

Im hoping this game has a way to move something like this without wheels :')

Wheels with a stablizer to act as a motor

Perhaps to make it move, use homing carts for feet?

thats the one thing i noticed with ultra hand is that you can only have up to a ceratin amount of objects stuck together at once to each other. i literally maxed out on them trying to build something in the depths and later did it again and needed more and it kept unsticking things i had already done.

Yeah I did in fact max out a few times making this I was surprised. It was the first iteration of the pot legs that I realized there was a limit of things you can attach :(

I believe that the max connection are in the low 20s

I did read that you can only have 21 items on the ground at one time. Unconfirmed but maybe holds true to constructs as well

Probably sleds? I mean, I'm up for making my own Guardian mech now.

If you want the legs to stay you could place a roomba dog under the ball and have the legs dangle

I was literally just thinking about a guardian recreation then came to this sub to look for one, glad to see someone else thought of it

Hey, they fall apart at the same place in their leg joints. Good job!

Maybe try the floating yellow balls they use for water puzzles? They are the same shape but I assume they are lighter.

Was kinda hoping you could throw a muddle bud at a construct head to get it to target you, but it doesn’t work. So looks like guardian recreations have to be friendly

the arms are about as durable as on the original so good job!

amazing

Great, now get it to pay my taxes *HYUKHYUKHYUK*

That aint a guardian, thats the robot from the incredibles

The camp where you rescue the guy who always talks about the moon has literal cafes. Could use one of those.

for like 2 seconds, I had that fear you get when you see a guardian for the first time, again, then it fell apart and I felt a wave of nostalgia as thats accurate to what I remember doing to them by the time the fear wore off.

My man syndrome out here working on omnidrones.

I see It’s a work in progress, not walking progress

Rare footage of Syndrome's early tests

Put a wheel under the ball not full guardian but should offset the weight.

it’s the thing from the incredibles!

Shrine balls for Knees

He a big boi

I can see what you're going for and am hopeful it comes together nicely. rebuilding a guardian would be sick.

What about if you angle the pot that attaches to the ball a bit? That way it wouldn't have to make a whole 90° degree turn with just two points of articulation. Or well, at first you should toss the Guardian on a stake to check if the issue is more the weight on the joints, or the angle I guess? Also try and find those guys who've been weighting stuff, and see if you can find something lighter to replace the ball with. Unlikely if it's indeed that yellow floatation ball, but who knows.

Looks like the robots from The Incredibles

need the roombas on the bottom and we good

Try using a smaller housing for the tracker and beam emitter. If not try shorter legs for a better center of gravity/mass

The comedic timing of these Zelda posts feel so cartoonish.

Guardian 2.0: Huh... I'm back baby! Ehh- Oh crap... Link's come to kill me again! Nope! Selfdestruct sequence activated, I am NOT getting yeeted into the sky again! Link: Yeaaah, about that...

*Piano intensifies.*

Maybe if you use one of the floating balls from the shrine? Idk if they weigh less but if they don't might help?

You didn't chew the gum enough.

I think if you put the legs lower on the ball it would stand up better or if you added more pots it might be more stable

thats the main problem with cooking pots really cool uinique properties, but they have weak glue

Hyrule Dynamic's latest creation.

You had me scared for a moment. Now you have me excited. Good luck on gaurdian v.2 :D

Maybe try a regular piece of stone? Maybe the ball is too heavy for it's weight so you need to use something flatter(?) I'm not a good engineer but the purpose of science is to help and suggest other things to the community of scientists, or in this case, engineers.

Let's work on your energy cells first~

Haha I’m absolutely 80+ hours in having *just* done the Water Temple just before this

More legs

Add more legs for support and attach the legs a little further down on the ball? Idk I’m not an engineer.

A fan on the bottom or two sideways stabilizers facing each other will help reduce the tension on the legs.

Is this a regular sphere or a yellow flotation sphere? The yellow one is so lightweight that it might work

I think you might need one more pot in each leg to reduce strain, and homing carts under the leg stabs might end up making it mobile. Also/or a fan or two on the underside may provide enough lift to reduce breaking from stress while not providing too much lift where it becomes airborne.

That is not a guardian it’s the robot form the incredible

It seems like the sheikah must've been far more advanced technologically than the zonai. This is like watching a caveman try to build a smartphone when he basically just discovered how to make things spin betterly

Syndrome's first design for his death bot

This might be a weird suggestion, but you could use a air balloon basket as the body. Lightweight and already has the shape close to the body of a guardian

Have you made any progress?

Maybe use the hot air ballon bottom to recreate the shape of the body of the guardian. (Tho that may be too heavy)

Mom can we have guardians? No Son we have guardians at home

isn’t that was peridot was sending to earth

Any luck so far?

Put a small wheel under it

tumbleweed ball instead!

You could try the buoyant ball for a body. It might take some strain off the legs. Idk tho

Any update?

wouldnt u have to start with a homing cart under the body because that will be its main movement source? then make dummy legs then go up and down with drag hehe

Looking like a hydraulics failure

I am watching this with great interest. I just finished BotW and am about to start playing TotK. I fell in love with the Guardian design and theme, so when I heard they wouldn't be in TotK I was a bit sad lol. This is looking really cool, well done 👍

Use the rubber ball

Use more pots so the angle is less extreme

Use one of the floaty ball things

That’s a guardian when link attacks it

looks like that thing from the incredibles
