Building a Car (Auto Mechanic Table)

The Auto Mechanic Table is the workstation where you craft parts and assemble a complete automobile.

• Open the Auto Mechanic Table to craft car parts from materials.
• A finished automobile is made of three core components snapped together: a Frame, a set of Wheels, and an Engine.
• Because the three parts are interchangeable, you can build anything from a slow wooden tractor to a fast diamond-powered racer.
• Combine your chosen frame, wheels, and engine to produce a complete, placeable automobile.

Frames

The Frame is the body of the car and sets its overall look, weight, and much of its handling.

• Standard frames come in every dye color for a classic car body.
• Tractor frames have large rear wheels and a farm look.
• Motorcar frames (wooden, copper, steel, golden, bejeweled) are longer and sleeker.
• Fun frames include the Shopping Cart, Rickshaw, and Pineapple. Each frame shape changes the car's proportions, seat positions, and where attachments mount.

Wheels

Wheels affect grip, ride height, and how the car handles terrain.

• Standard and Steel wheels are all-round road wheels.
• Off-Road wheels give better grip on rough ground.
• Tractor wheels are large for a farm build.
• Carriage wheels give an old-fashioned look. Bigger wheels raise the car's ride height and change its feel.

Engines

The Engine determines top speed and acceleration.

• Stone and Iron engines are basic starters.
• Copper, Gold, and Diamond engines are progressively faster and accelerate harder.
• The Creative engine is the fastest of all. A running engine emits exhaust smoke; a better engine turns your build into a real racer.

Driving, Drifting and Boosting

Sit in your automobile and drive it like a kart.

• Use your normal movement controls to accelerate, brake, and steer.
• Hold a drift while turning to build up a turbo charge; release to get a speed boost. Chaining drifts and boosts lets skilled drivers go much faster.
• Cars kick up skid effects and exhaust smoke while driving, and each frame has its own horn sound.
• Handling depends on the parts you chose, so tune your car for speed or for cornering.

Attachments

Bolt extra attachments onto the front or back of your car to change what it does.

Rear attachments: - Chest – mobile storage you can drive around. - Passenger Seat – give a friend a ride. - Plow, Grindstone, Stonecutter, and a Block attachment. - Banner Post – fly your banner from the back of the car.

Front attachments: - Mob Controller, Autopilot, and a Harvester / Grass Cutter for farming while you drive.

Tips

• Match parts to the job: off-road wheels for rough terrain, a strong engine for racing.
• Master drifting: drift into corners and release the boost on the straight for the best lap times.
• Use a chest attachment to haul items on long trips.
• Build a track with dash panels and slopes to race friends.
• Decorate with a colored frame and a banner post to show off your style.

Track Blocks

Automobility adds blocks for building race tracks and stunt courses.

• Dash Panels give your car a burst of speed when you drive over them.
• Slopes and Steep Slopes act as ramps.
• Off-Road blocks (grass, sand, and snow variants) change traction.
• Launch Gel flings your car into the air. Combine these to build race tracks, obstacle courses, and stunt arenas.
