Several quality-of-life enhancements, including the option to modify world settings directly in-game and the addition of a rapid travel feature between Bus Stations, have been added to LEGO Fortnite with the v30.40 release.
Two new cars and other toys have been added for players to explore with this update.
Pressure Plates and Trigger Plates are two of the new gadgets included in the rapid travel update. Moreover, the launch of Activated Balloons has occurred.
Although balloons have long been a feature of LEGO Fortnite, Activated Balloons have a unique purpose that makes them stand out from the originals.
How To Craft Activated Balloons?
The Activated Balloon Small and the Activated Balloon Large are the two varieties of Activated Balloons that players can build in LEGO Fortnite.
The first step for players to unlock the recipes for these balloons is to acquire Silk Fabric. A torch, a cord, and silk fabric are needed to make both balloons; however, the Large Balloon requires twice as much silk fabric as the Small Balloon.
Since a crafting bench can be used to make them early in the game, crafting a torch is simple. However, separate Utility Stations are needed for cord and silk fabric.
A loom is used to create silk fabric from five silk threads, while a spinning wheel is used to create a cord from five vines.
After assembling all the components, use the Build Menu to build an Activated Balloon and set it atop any Dynamic Foundation or comparable structure.
How To Use Activated Balloons?
Activated balloons are deactivated by default, but channel controls make it simple to turn them on or off. To control them, players can utilize a Trigger Plate, Pressure Plate, or Activation Switch.
It is advised to utilize Activated Balloons in conjunction with a Driver’s Seat for best results. With this configuration, players can operate up to four channels at once, providing them with the freedom to manipulate balloons and other components like thrusters however they see fit.
When utilizing a Driver’s Seat, players can modify the channel input by using a wrench to switch the button that controls the balloons.
How to use Activated Balloons?
To use Activated Balloons in LEGO Fortnite, you must connect them to a switch that can turn them on and off using channel controls. For this, you can utilize the more recent Pressure Plates and Trigger Plates, or the more traditional Activation Switches.
The use of Activated Balloons is as follows:
- Placement: Attach the Activated Balloons to your preferred switch by positioning them on a Dynamic Foundation.
- Control Inflation: You can inflate and deflate the Activated Balloons by placing yourself on a pressure plate. The balloons will quickly inflate when you turn them on, and they will deflate when you turn them off.
- Customization: The balloons may be repeatedly inflated and deflated, which is great for building airborne vehicles or incorporating unusual components into your creations. You can use a wrench and a driver’s seat to fine-tune the functionality of each Activated Balloon for even more control.
This configuration facilitates the use of balloons in your LEGO Fortnite projects and opens up a variety of creative applications.
