Jetpacks are a useful edition to the game as it allows easy maneuverability while building tall buildings, or placing airborne structures, such as wires, satellites, and airborne platforms, which would be difficult with ordinary means of "scaffolding" to the air using pillars of blocks. | Jetpacks are a useful edition to the game as it allows easy maneuverability while building tall buildings, or placing airborne structures, such as wires, satellites, and airborne platforms, which would be difficult with ordinary means of "scaffolding" to the air using pillars of blocks. | ||
A blockhead wearing a jetpack has movement speed equivalent to a blockhead moving with South Pole Boots of Speed. Jetpacks allow a blockhead to fly up ladders without using them at the same speed as running with South Pole Boots of Speed. Jetpacks are very resource and time demanding to produce to the hours, and once completed, the fuel consumption is quite moderate. It is a good idea to have two blockheads in a world, one wearing a jetpack for exploration, while the other can craft fuel. It is possible to craft fuel faster than the time it takes to use it, but not to a spectacular advantage | |||

Unfortunately, despite the tremendous amount of time invested into creating a jetpack, it does wear out while being used like any other craftable clothing. As a result, it is highly ill advised to use jetpacks other than for exploring new areas, while it lasts and eventually destroys itself. | |||
Jetpacks fly on consuming fuel, which can be crafted using the refinery at the cost of 10 oil for 1 fuel. An easy source of oil (which is the core material for both production of fuel and jetpack) is by harvesting flax seeds and converting them into oil through the electric press. This oil conversion is much more efficient than investing the time to mine oil, and since flax plants have an unlimited supply of seeds, oil can be considered common and unlimited resource as long as the user has a press and flax harvesting area. | |||
