Remember the glory days of Devblog 9? What a time to be alive! In that wondrous update we shared some really early images from a huge, spooky-looking warehouse that we were working on for Survival. Thanks for your patience - pist and love to you all. We were originally planning to have this part come out alongside Survival, but after seeing such high demand for pistons we decided to shuffle them straight to the front of the queue! Exciting, eh? Work on pistons is well underway – and we can’t wait to see what you all choose to do with them. Unfortunately, it’s not quite ready yet because we have to find that sweet spot that also works well with Survival mode. Right now they can be up to 16 blocks long, but as this part is still fairly new, we’re still toying around with its maximum length.

Just thinking about the amount of awesome things you will be able to build with that function blows our mind so we hope you’re excited too!Īs well as expanding and contracting, you will also be able to simply connect them to a trigger and set the extract length. Well folks, hold on to your tool belts because we’re happy to reveal that with the arrival of the piston comes a brand new feature! Players will be able to connect these new interactive parts to a controller, making them expand and contract in a sequence. Well, request no longer Mechanics, because it’s nearly time to get your pist-on! Eagle-eyed players may remember that a long time ago in a Devblog far,far,away we promised to add something special to the Pistons. Time and time again we get people pining for interactive parts, and pistons always top the list.

So, without further ado - let’s dive in to all the juicy new stuff! As always we’ve loved watching the inventive ways you all find to use your scrap and we’re pleased to say that while we’ve been hard at work on Survival mode, we’ve also found the time to start developing some other cool new features too. It’s that time again - we’ve managed to sneak some Scrap Mechanic news past the Farmbots! These last few months have been pretty fantastic for us at Axolot, because we’ve managed to make a ton of progress on the game.
