Body Builder Tool The Body Builder tool has been designed to give players who are maybe not yet comfortable with building in Robocraft the power to create nice looking Robot chassis quickly with just a few clicks of the mouse.
The Body Builder interface is very easy to use:
Select a Robot class (car, mech, tank or hover)
Select a front body (multiple selections available)
Select a back body (multiple selections available)
Pressing the player-assigned* Undo hotkey while in Edit Mode will undo the last action:
Robot part being placed
Robot part being removed
Robot part colour being changed
Robot being moved (up, down, left or right)
Undoing a mirrored action will undo one action at a time. I.e placing 2 cubes in mirror mode will undo one, and then the other
Undo history starts from the moment of entry into Edit Mode
Up to 2000 Undo actions permitted per 'save session'. Save sessions refresh when the user leaves the garage bay
New on-screen hint for Undo
To activate the Undo functionality, existing players will need to assign a hotkey. This can be done through the controls settings which can be accessed by pressing the Esc (escape) key on the main game screen.

We've rolled out the latest Robocraft update titled Body Builder. This update brings with it a new and exciting way for inexperienced Robot builders to make a range of Robot bodies that are both functional and beautiful within a matter of seconds. For those with more building experience we've added the much-requested Undo functionality to edit mode. As well as those two amazing features, we've got some gorgeous new cosmetic parts and Elimination is back in BRAWL mode. We've made some balance changes and squished a few bugs too.
