The Property Tool, better known as the Screwdriver, is a tool which modifies the properties of blocks.

Obtaining[]

This tool was originally obtained by opening The Lab, located in the waterfall in the Stage Entrance (where Plushie 1 is). The hole leading to the lab was temporarily replaced by a picture of the gnome from the "You've been gnomed" meme, when the tool was added to the Shop.

It is now purchasable from the Shop for 2,500 Gold.

Functionality[]

The Property Tool allows the player to alter a placed block's properties, such as transparency, collision, anchor status, shadow, torque/force, and speed (for wheels and turbines), as well as the length of Pistons.

Using the Select All button at the top left of the screen selects all currently placed blocks. To select several individual blocks: hold Ctrl, Shift, or CMD, then click each block. To select a range of blocks, click and drag a selection box around the desired blocks (mobile players must perform a reverse pinch).

Modifiable blocks[]

The table below contains all unique properties in the game and their associated blocks. Properties with the value type "Float" allow players to enter any real number within the given range, up to at most two decimal places; entering in the format "1e+2" or "1e2" is also allowed, which will be converted automatically.

  1. Determined by the Building Tool's anchor setting.
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 Range restrictions only apply to the Property Tool. The value during placement using the Building Tool may exceed this range.
  3. 3.0 3.1 3.2 Determined by upon placement by the Building Tool.
  4. The options need to be cycled twice to get back to the original pitch.

Notes[]

  • Blocks with collision off will pass through everything, but will still take damage from obstacles. This makes them useful to keep a boat moving when it runs into a rock.
  • Blocks with collision off will pass through each other when moving, but become attached if saved while they intersect.
  • Blocks with collision off cannot be hit by player projectiles, such as those launched by the Cannon, thus giving a massive advantage in PVP Mode.

History[]

  • 05/30/2020: Property Tool added to the game with the Lab.
  • 06/20/2020: Property Tool added to the Shop for 12,000 Gold.
  • 11/24/2020: Property Tool Shop price decreased to 2,500 Gold.
  • 04/16/2021: Property Tool can now alter transparency of non-scalable blocks like Pistons, jetpacks, and turbines.

Trivia[]

  • The tool's GUI overlaps the chat window.
  • Prior to its price change on 11/24/2020 (lowering it from 12,000 Gold), the Property Tool would cost 1,440 ROBUX if the Gold was purchased through top-ups.
  • There is a glitch where block properties cannot be changed. Clearing all blocks or resetting will fix this issue.
  • The Property Tool used to be the only tool that could not be bought in the Shop.
