if you were just goin for sometin that looks nifty and not used as part of the games controls probobly. but otherwise you are looking at too much bulk for it to be effective. then you got to take in account pressure sensetivity so you dont accidently break limbs or choke someone out. Even then you still wouldn't get the full effect you want. Then you have to look at cost effectiveness.

we need a Tentacle Foundation, so that RRR's prototype production becomes a charity, and thuse gets donations from rich people who want to look charitable but are too lazy to actually go do it and pick them at random.

Well... I think we need to look at how an actual animal's tail works. Multi boned with several muscles working it, maybe even 2 or 3 for each joint. (Pics anyone?)

What about something that connects together kinda like Knex (ball on one end, socket on the other) but shorter and with spots on each end to attach a bicycle-type brake cable mechanism. When the cable is pushed, the the joint goes away. 3 or 4 connections per joint (or cheat and make the sections larger). The main tentacle could be thicker and move around, and the... "insertion end" could be minimally flexible, maybe even using flowing warm water to give an internal pulsing action (self-contained and circulating so no water from this system enters the body cavity).

The base of the machine could be moderately large, and as for resistance measurement, cable strain or the cooler rubber-based resistance meters (stretch = higher resistance).

DAMN IT! Now I want my machine shop up and running!

Here I would disagree.. building it like an animal's tail is going to make the game feel like fucking an animals tail. I think it should be made like a tentacle. Of course, we're gonna need myomer..

Maybe hydralic instead of mechanical, use liquid filled bladders wrapped around a liquid core, like a real tentacle.

Better yet find us a good grant writer and apply for federal funds to develop it. After all the US goverment does spend boatloads of money on alot worse things

I know a good grant writer who is also a cephalopod biologist..

I know he'd love something like this.. now if I could only convince him to write the grant. You know, we'd need an institution to put their name on this as well...

hmm.. for an institution, the Ministry of Lord Naughtius Tentaclax?

Ya'll recon that there would fly?

I reckon we'd need one of them there upstandin' insti'tutins to back us up. Course.. long as the name sounds le-jit-a-mit, we'll be shittin in tha high cotton.

Hmm...

Society for the Promotion of Erotic Webcomics... SPEW... no, wait that's taken..
