Hinge Block

The  is an ability block in Build A Boat For Treasure. It was added on 6/1/2019. It acts like a small, powerless wheel. The speed blocks move while on the hinge depend on the total weight of the blocks. If the blocks are light enough, the player can move it by pushing it without any extra help. Despite its purpose as a powerless wheel, it is not bindable to Car Seats or Pilot Seats.

Hinges are mostly used for complex mechanisms. Some uses include connecting wheels together, similar to how train wheels are connected, and are a common block used in building Mechs. They are also used in making custom servos made with pistons. They can also be used to make a reloading Magnet cannon.
