Motion

Static builds can be so boring. I want motion and flow in mine.

Pandora Wrigglesworth inspired the rotating spiral stairwell, but I wasn't happy with the slowness of the change when it was set to a minute hand script.

I made a few adjustments and swapped the minute hand and second hand components.

Now the spiral ramp rotates once a minute with the second hand, which people should more easily notice.

I've also reversed the spiral. That way it should fall away from the ascendant/descendant instead of collide-rise them up, annoying the physics engine more, I believe.


I'm debating whether those gears turning along the ceiling will become free-floating like stars. It would be neat to clear out the clocks and just have the gears twinkle and turn in the air.
