Routes and locations
Gas Engines are crafted vehicle parts; an early scrap version supports first vehicles before the full upgrade chain.
Mini Craftbot and first-car lesson
The opening vehicle progression introduces engine-to-seat and engine-to-wheel connections.

Build and improve the engine as the workshop and Component Kit supply expand.
- Begin at low power and tune with the normal load present.
- Carry return-trip Gasoline outside the active fuel supply.
- Protect the engine without blocking upgrade access.
Gas Engine recipes and properties
An engine with fixed speed and adjustable power, ideally suited to powering vehicles. Can be connected to a driver's seat or trigger. Upgrade for more connection points and less gas consumption.
Combine 20 Metal Block Level 1, 5 Component Kit, 1 Circuit Board, 5 Crude Oil at Craftbot for 30sto make 1 Gas Engine Level 1.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 5 | 150 | 4,000 | 4 Component Kits |
| 2 | 4 | 7 | 390 | 6,000 | 6 Component Kits |

Reaching Level 5 costs 28 Component Kits in total. Higher power settings change available torque; test the setting again after every upgrade and load change.
Set Power for the Vehicle You Have
More engine power is not always more control. Begin at a low setting, test the unloaded chassis, then increase one step at a time after storage and tools are mounted.
Each level adds two bearing connections and increases the available power range, torque, and work per unit of Gasoline. Upgrade only when the current connection limit or loaded performance is the real constraint.
- Connect only the bearings that should provide drive.
- Reverse incorrect wheel direction with the Connect Tool.
- Reduce power when acceleration causes rolling or wheel spin.
