[PoC] Pistons. They're possible.
[PoC] = [Proof of Concept]

So yeah, i've had this idea in my head for a loooooong time now... Don't know exactly
where it stems from, probably an engine or something.
In any case, any modder knows that a piston is not possible to directly define,
unlike a rotating joint. So i thought, "Hey, it's possible to convert rotation to back-forth
movement, so why not try it in Toribash?", and here i am, with a working piston.
I currently have no dedicated mod that uses this technique, but i'm intrigued as
to what other modders can use this for :0



I think it is possible to remove the connecting pole, if enough joints are used.
Credits will be appreciated if you use this method :3 (Not required though)

P.S. Yes, i am fully aware that this exact mod is utterly useless. It's only a concept
for others to work with.

P.P.S. Yes, it is capable of multiple cycles.

Edit: More refined edition added. Look for "PistonConcept2.tbm".
