A total of 1,000 [[oil]], 300 [[coal]], nine [[Titanium Ingot|titanium ingots]], and a large amount of [[electricity]] (to run a [[refinery]]) are needed to make all the preliminaries and components. This includes the upgrading of a level 3 craft bench to level 4. | ||
Without crafting surface upgrades, the production of components for a (second) jetpack (2 wings, 2 jets, 1 chassis, 10 fuel) requires exactly 850 oil, 250 coal and nine titanium ingots. | |||

Once worn, a blockhead can be directed to any position in the [[Astronomy#Sky|sky]] by tapping on that spot. The blockhead may steer around obstacles and unrevealed areas (even as they are revealed because the path is set before the blockhead begins moving), but will use [[door]]s, [[trapdoor]]s, and [[Elevator Shaft|elevators]] normally. [[Stairs]] and [[ladder]]s will be ignored. Wearing a jetpack and even flying does not inhibit the use of [[tool]]s, [[bed]]s, [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]], or other [[items]]. | Once worn, a blockhead can be directed to any position in the [[Astronomy#Sky|sky]] by tapping on that spot.

A blockhead using a jetpack travels approximately as fast as one walking level using [[South Pole Boots Of Speed]], but in any direction and without the need for a solid surface. | |||
While worn, a jetpack will display as an icon adjacent to the blockhead's inventory display, whether that display is opened or closed. It will be located on the same row/column as the [[hand]] or clothing spaces. | While worn, a jetpack will display as an icon adjacent to the blockhead's inventory display, whether that display is opened or closed.

Jetpacks require [[fuel]] to continue operating. Its fuel supply is shown as a yellow bar across the top of its icon, with red expanding from right to left as the supply diminishes. A newly-made jetpack is fully fueled, and a fully fueled jetpack conceals its fuel bar. Refueling requires the blockhead to have fuel in its accessible inventory and the jetpack worn. It can be refueled during flight. Tapping on either the jetpack or fuel icons will offer the option to add fuel. | Jetpacks require [[fuel]] to continue operating.
