Leakeers inform that in Fortnite, a very key issue may soon occur in the subject of boats and helicopters.
Epic Games, on the occasion of yesterday’s update, made some changes not only directly in the game, but also in the files. Fortnite is dealt with by the best leakers in the world who will not miss anything, so Epic’s plans were quickly discovered this time.
It turns out that the developers have decided to prepare to introduce fuel on all vehicles, including boats and helicopters.
Boats and helicopters with fuel mechanics
As reported by Mang0e, the Epic is now basically ready to turn on the fuel mechanics on both helicopters and boats.
ALERT!

New variables have been added, Boats and Choppers may now run on fuel! This was a feature being worked last update, we will have to see if it is in the live game.
Default.Vehicle.Meatball.MinStartingFuel = 100.0
Default.Hoagie.MinStartingFuel = 100.0
Is it a surprise? For many people, for sure. Rather, everyone has gotten used to the fact that they can go as long as they want and don’t have to pay attention to the fuel. The developers apparently decided that the ability to quickly move around the map should be limited.
The players react very differently, you can see that this is quite a controversial issue. Some are jumping for joy, others are very irritated. Interestingly, however, there seems to be more opponents of this solution – these, however, generally complain about the fuel system, and not about the fact that it will cover more means of transport.
