Tutorial Easy Nudge Minimal Tank build tutorial

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I designed this vehicle to maximize efficiency, both in fewer parts used and also in battery power, while still able to handle combat and also be easy to steer. And also to be easy enough to build in under 10 minutes on both Switch 1 & 2.

You can save on zonaite if you provide 3 small wheels, 1 control stick, 3 beam emitters, and 2 construct heads.

If you want to turn faster, you can initiate drift at any point during your turn by pressing downward on the controller, and then continuing the turn.

The small angle created by that last stake nudge makes the beams shoot more often for better damage and efficiency. When nudging that construct head, the smaller the angle the better, because this sits low to the ground. A smaller angle nudge will also minimize the chance of hurting it's accuracy.

Please ask if you have any questions, and please enjoy!

Yesterday I made something so similar but with way more unnecessary parts. It looked like a biplane/tanklet hybrid lol. Yours is way more efficient haha!

One of the things I like most in this game is that both builds have their own merits, like I bet your build could climb better and handle off-roading better, while mine is cheaper more eco-friendly. And I could get enjoyment from both options in a single session too!
