Slurp Plant Devices | Fortnite Creative Documentation

Slurp Plants give you a new way to provide healing resources to players so you have a broader selection of items to place on your island.

There are lots of ways this can enhance your island experience:

Provide a more dynamic and interactive environment for players.
Give players more ways to interact with your game mechanics.
Give players additional tools to play strategically.
Establish that there are multiple ways to locate and use healing resources.

Finding and Placing the Device

From Create mode, press the Tab key to open the CREATIVE inventory screen.
Click the DEVICES tab. You can scroll to select the device, use the Search box to look up the device by name, or the Categories in the panel on the left.
Click PLACE NOW to place immediately, or put the device in the QUICK BAR to place later.
Press Esc to return to your island in Create mode. Use your phone to position the device, then click to place it. Press Esc to detach the device from your phone.
Point at the device with your phone. If the Customize popup doesn’t open immediately, move closer until it does, then press E to open the Customize panel.

If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be helpful to rename them. You can choose names that relate to each device's purpose, so it's easier to remember what each one does.

Contextual Filtering

Some devices are affected by a feature called contextual filtering. This feature hides or displays options depending on the values selected for certain related options. This feature will reduce clutter in the Customize panel and make options easier to manage and navigate.

However, it may not be easy to recognize which options or values trigger contextual filtering. To help you identify them, in our device docs we use italic for any values that trigger contextual filtering. All options will be listed, including those affected by contextual filtering; if they are hidden or displayed based on a specific option's value, there will be a note about that in the Description field for that option.

Device Options

This device has some basic functionality, like whether the pod launches when hit. Additionally, there are some advanced options, like whether the pod regrows automatically and whether it can regrow infinitely.

You can configure this device with the following options.

Default values are bold. Values that trigger contextual filtering are italic.
