I've spent a lot of time talking about everything the Springlock Suits from Five Nights at Freddy's did wrong. Today, I'm talking about how to do it better. I'm going through the entire Engineering Design Process to create a better version of the Springlock Suits, once and for all!
And to answer your question, yes. I did already cover this topic a few years ago, but I thought I should revisit it because of a glaring mistake I made last time. In the original, I set myself the constraint that I had to use springlocks in the final design. In doing so, I fell victim to a classic engineering pitfall: The Golden Cow. Essentially, this is when an engineer likes a specific design/mechanism so much that they insist on using it, even if it's not the best tool for the job. Today, I wanted to show how a real engineer should approach a problem like this, and not ask if we can use springlcoks, but if we should use springlock!
