Epic Games has taken great care to make it possible to create a wide range of vehicles upon release of LEGO Fortnite. Good news: bots are also a machine you can assemble, whether in sandbox or survival mode!
Here’s a simple plan to get a boat capable of sailing anywhere you want!
How to make a boat in LEGO Fortnite?
1-Basic shell
First, create a simple hull using Dynamic Foundation (Build menu > Gadgets). Start by putting that Wooden Foundation 02 (Construction Components > Foundations > Wooden Foundations) across, in the center.
then put Medieval Balustrades (Construction Components>Fences>Balustrades) around the outer edge of the hull. This will allow you to push your ship into the water, and hold the foundation on deck without moving.
2 – side platforms
Next, you will need to top your dynamic foundation with two wooden foundations that are attached to the first. But be careful: these must first be raised in turn by a Wooden Foundation 06 Vertical (Construction Components > Foundations > Wooden Foundations
)
Your vertical foundations should be connected to the central foundation.
Then place a small thruster on the overhead bar as in the screenshot below.
Next, break the vertical foundation using a pickaxe.
Repeat for the second foundation and second small thruster on the other side of the boat.
3 – Rear Propulsion
Then put two Small thrusters (gadgets) At the rear of the boat, on a dynamic foundation.
Then push your ship into the water.
4 – Order
Finally, place three activation switches (gadgets) on the front of your ship: one on the central foundation, then one on each side foundation.
If you have properly placed the small thrusters on the foundation before breaking the vertical foundation, each side switch will be independent. So, you will be able to steer your boat by alternating activation of left/right switches
Dispositional Physics
The physics of Lego Fortnite are very sensitive, especially on water! Don’t panic if you don’t succeed in the first attempt. If possible, try to prepare your boat on a perfectly flat beach with no slopes.
Be careful not to accidentally bump your boat before it’s done!
