Dragline Prototype [Modded]

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SMART PHYSICS! SET PHYSICS QUALITY TO "Advanced"!

Had an idea to use the Mechanical Parts mod's pipe hinges, and Modpack Polygons' pipe pistons to make something that could be confused for rope, if you squint.
So the most logical thing for me to make with that idea was a dragline excavator.

If this thing looks like it's lower quality than my other stuff, that's because it is. I threw it together in a couple hours, just to test my idea.
Worked out better than I thought it would, but I don't feel like working on it any more than this, so i'll just leave it here. For the time being, anyway.

This creation uses modded parts to function. I've listed the required mods on the right ->

Controls:
WASD = Drive Forwards & Backwards, as well as steer Left & Right
1 & 2 = Swing the machine Left & Right
3 & 4 = Pull the bucket towards the machine & give the bucket some slack
5 & 6 = Hoist & Lower the bucket
7 = Toggle tipping the bucket
8 & 9 = Raise & Lower the boom
