LEGO Fortnite has released update 30.40, which aims to make your blocky life easier. This update introduces two new toys, Pressure and Trigger Plates, which can help automate tasks.

The update for Fortnite’s LEGO mode on August 6 now allows players to use Fast Travel at Battle Bus Stops and access a variety of new skin styles, such as Indiana Jones.

Each of the two new buttons recently incorporated into LEGO Fortnite has its own unique method of unlocking, recipe, and functionality.

Activating Trigger and Pressure Plates in LEGO Fortnite

In LEGO Fortnite, there are two types of plates that allow for the activation of channels and the creation of interactive builds: Pressure Plates and Trigger Plates.

  • Pressure Plates are buttons you can stand on to activate channels, and they need to stay pressed down to maintain activation. These are perfect for mechanisms requiring continuous pressure.
    • You could use them to keep a door open or keep a conveyor plate running for a duration of time.
  • Trigger Plates, on the other hand, activate channels with a single press and don’t need to stay pressed down. Once triggered, they send a signal without requiring constant pressure.
    • You could use them to automatically open doors or trigger explosives.
