The Professor
I’m the Professor. The star of Update 5 Part 6 is the debut of the Trigger Volume Tool. Building gimmicks and mods just got a whole lot more fun.
📌 Key points
- Crystal Fertilizer is easier to craft
- New features in Creative mode
- The Trigger Volume Tool fires events inside an area you define
- Controller support is also planned for Update 6
Crystal Fertilizer is easier to craft
The 
Crystal Fertilizer Bag introduced in Update 4 Part 3 is now easier to craft. It’s the fertilizer you need for “potion farming,” growing potion ingredients at home. For details, see the Update 4 Part 3 recap.
Trigger Volume Tool
The highlight of this update. It’s a tool that fires off all kinds of events when a player enters an area (volume) you define.
- Doors open or close when you enter an area
- Enemies spawn when you enter an area
- Rooms where doors won’t open until you defeat the enemies
- Music plays when you enter an area
With tricks like these, you can build dungeons and puzzles. This tool gets an even bigger upgrade in Update 6 (see also Update 6 Part 6).
New Creative mode features
Creative mode also gained new features that make building and map-making easier.
Next up: controller support
An upcoming update is also slated to add controller support.
For anyone who dreams of building their own dungeon, the Trigger Volume Tool is a dream come true. It’s tricky at first, so start by experimenting with opening and closing doors.
