Build challenge (competitive)

[Nova]

Build a sling launcher that launches a rocket (fyi the rocket has a tiny satellite inside)

Rules:

• No cheats (infinite build, bp editing (except for fuel percentage), and clipping are the only exceptions)
• Must build a sling launcher to launch the rocket
• Must use the rocket provided (or an exact recreation)
• Sling launcher can be (at most) 200m tall (arm length is up to you).
• Come up with a creative name
• Do not copy someone design
• Have fun

The winner will be decided by how high the satellite’s orbit is.​

You may edit how much fuel is inside the fuel tanks inside the rocket.​

oh yeah and the bottom engine isn’t mandatory, but if you do want to use it you have to connect it yourself. It must be able to detach!​

You need to do the challenge first, or else people won't try it.

"sling"/ spin launch doesn't work in sfs. Rotation does give extra momentum on the end of the craft so the only extra momentum you would be getting is that of the separator not the spinning

You cant spin in sfs.

 

[Pickles the rocketier]

You can

Duh... ofc you can spin but there isn't any benefit to it other than changing your orientation.

No it gets really fast then launches
