Creates an anchor, two of which can be connected in order to create a zip-line, enabling rapid travel from one end to the other. Level 1 zip-line anchors can be placed up to 300 meters apart. Zip-lines can be very useful for quickly traveling over steep slopes. Vehicles and floating carriers cannot travel via zip-line.
– In-Game Description
The Zip-line is a structure that is unlocked in Episode 5: Mama and becomes available after obtaining the PCC Level 2. Zip-lines allow for quick vertical and horizonal traversal between points once interacted with.
Construction[edit | edit source]
In order to function, two zip-line anchors must be placed within a certain range of one another and be free of obstructions. A connection to another anchor will be successful if a blue line is shown between them. Multiple zip-line anchors may be connected to a tower. The default maximum range between zip-line towers is 300 meters. Upgrading an anchor to Level 2 will increase this range to 350 meters while Level 3 will provide better durability against Timefall.
