We all know that thereвЂ™s nothing better than that feeling of rocking a fresh new outfit, so we thought weвЂ™d treat you all too some sweet new threads. Yep, that means that soon everyone will be able to make their own terrain! You can expect more news on that exciting feature in the coming months. Expect a lot of great jumps, ramps and even a cave or two! As weвЂ™re all about giving you control, weвЂ™re also planning to give mechanics access to the very terrain editor that we use in the studio. So weвЂ™re happy to announced that we will be adding over 20 big and small terrain tiles to the mix very shortly.

While this is all well and good, we thought it was time to live up to the modeвЂ™s namesake and add a little more creative variation! By carefully watching how you mechanics play the game, we think we now have a pretty good idea of how to make the terrain tiles even more fun to play around in. Right now itвЂ™s made out of over 30 Terrain tiles in different sizes that get generated randomly every time a world is created. Now if youвЂ™ll excuse us, we have some potato wedges to attend to.ДЄs long time players may have noticed, the creative mode terrain has been the same since release a little over a year ago. We canвЂ™t wait to get them in the game so you Mechanics donвЂ™t have to place wedge parts one by one. Whilst munching on those delicious, juicy chunks of carby goodness, we were struck with inspiration вЂ“ WE CAN LET THEM SCALE THEIR WEDGES! WeвЂ™ve heard what youвЂ™ve been saying, and we know that building with slanted parts can feel a bit tedious.ThatвЂ™s why we are working on scalable wedges so you can get that large slanted surface you all desire faster than ever before.Yep, thatвЂ™s right - all blocks will be getting a slanted version! Depending on how the block is rotated, it will scale either vertically or horizontally,saving you all a ton of time.

We donвЂ™t know about you, but weвЂ™re big fans of potato wedges here at Scrap Mechanic HQ. Scaling wedges will make your life easier Creepy, huh? While itвЂ™s already pretty cool, the good news is, the whole warehouse interior is also fully destructible! Obviously this is still a work in progress, so keep in mind that this place will soon get even darker and more sinister when we add the final lighting.вЂ¦Well, if we arenвЂ™t too scared to finish building it anyway! As we mentioned in DB 9, more buildings are also in the works, but as weвЂ™re massive teases - thatвЂ™s all we can say for now. Well fearless players, weвЂ™re happy to say that weвЂ™ve got a scary sneak peek for you all. 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 вЂ“ and we canвЂ™t wait to see what you all choose to do with them. Unfortunately, itвЂ™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, weвЂ™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 youвЂ™re excited too!ДЄs 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 weвЂ™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 itвЂ™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 - letвЂ™s dive in to all the juicy new stuff! As always weвЂ™ve loved watching the inventive ways you all find to use your scrap and weвЂ™re pleased to say that while weвЂ™ve been hard at work on Survival mode, weвЂ™ve also found the time to start developing some other cool new features too. ItвЂ™s that time again - weвЂ™ve managed to sneak some Scrap Mechanic news past the Farmbots! These last few months have been pretty fantastic for us at Axolot, because weвЂ™ve managed to make a ton of progress on the game.
