How to Craft and Use a Trigger Plate in Lego Fortnite

If you are a player who likes to automate everything you do in Lego Fortnite, there is a new item you’ll want to have. One of the latest additions to the survival crafting game is the trigger plate, which allows Lego Fortnite players to make certain systems work automatically, rather than manually.

How do I craft a Trigger Plate in Lego Fortnite?

If you want to get a trigger plate for yourself, I found it is quite easy. You only need two materials to make a single trigger plate in this survival game. Here is how to craft and build a trigger plate:

• 1 wood piece
• 1 blast powder

Wood is quite easy to find anywhere in the world. Just smash some trees and you’re good to go. Blast powder, on the other hand, will require a bit more exploration. You can either find them in treasure chests or by defeating the skeletons in the Dry Valley desert biome who are wearing cowboy hats.

What can I use a Trigger Plate for in Lego Fortnite?

Once you have a trigger plate in Lego Fortnite, you’ll need to place it on top of another object. You can’t just directly put it on the ground. The purpose of the trigger plate is to connect to something else it is touching, such as an explosive or vehicle.

How it works is stepping on the trigger plate will activate it. This will then activate whatever it is touching, such as an explosive you want to detonate. Then stepping on it again will turn whatever it is connected to off. This could mean turning off its connected vehicle. Unlike the pressure plate, you don’t have to continuously step on it for it to work. It is like a switch in a way.

Lego Fortnite is available for free for Android, Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
