GearBlocks 0.7.8754
Happy Holidays everyone,
I've just released another update, with a bunch of new parts!
[h3]Clutches[/h3]
These attach two axles together, one with a fixed attachment, the other with a rotary bearing. The clutch can be engaged / disengaged with a key press, which will smoothly lock / unlock the rotary bearing.
[h3]Clutch Gears[/h3]
These are a type of spur gear that attach to an axle with a rotary bearing only. Similar to regular clutches, they can be engaged / disengaged from the axle they're attached to.
[h3]Brakes[/h3]
Wheels already have built in brakes that you can optionally enable, but these separate brake parts allow you to brake an axle without needing to use a wheel. The brakes attach to an axle with a rotary bearing, and to the part you want to brake against (e.g. a beam) with a fixed attachment.
[h3]Angle Sensor[/h3]
You can attach an axle to this sensor, and link a display to it. It'll show the axle's current relative angle, RPM, etc.
There are a few other tweaks and improvements too, here are the release notes:-
