The Magnet was added on 3/1/2019. When activated, it attracts blocks within a 4x4 area. Upon deactivation, it repels the block it is holding. This means it is commonly used in custom PVP weapons, which have some advantages (like the ability to change ammo types) over the normal cannon. Only one block can be attracted at a time. It is black when inactive and red when activated.
The Magnet can be binded to Car Seats, Pilot Seats, Levers, Buttons, and Switches, and is toggled on and off with these. The Magnet can be painted, but loses most of its color once turned off.
Trivia[]
- A Magnet's building dimensions will extend when powered, but not its physical hitbox.
- The Magnet has led to way more Glitches than any other block in the game, mostly used for grinding methods.
- Magnets attracting each other will bug out, and fly at extreme speeds, and often falling into the void.
- Magnets do not save their on state when saved.
- Powered Magnets pick up merged blocks, and count them as one individual block.
- Magnets attracting each other that are bound to springs can create an elevator like design.
- Magnets may not be able to completely pick up a block and soon later dropping the block. (Weight of a block can affect it as well).
- When paired with a spring in its area of effect, it can be used to make a launcher glitch.
- Cloning a block that is being attracted by a magnet would result in the cloned block being attracted to the magnet. Turning off the magnet may result in the block still being ‘attracted’ to the magnet
- 1 Magnet could be obtained using the Code "magnetic" (expired).
