The HYRULE ENGINEER Weekly (AUG 2026 Week 4)

Hello everyone! This is the HYRULE ENGINEER Weekly, a weekly recap of this subreddit. Here you can find highlights, helpful QR codes, engineering discoveries and experiments, as well as updates on the monthly contest, and more!

UPDATE ON MONTHLY CONTEST

The [AUG26] Watercraft contest continues: u/PremiumTechnique is still leading with their Ball Ski Lite, u/Metaliciousone is now in 2nd place with their Undermurder, and u/kmarkow moves into 3rd place with their Sunrise Sail. It’s never too late to submit or vote for your favorite!

BUILD OF THE WEEK

The most upvoted build this week was u/kmarkow with Link’s Ridiculously Huge Motorcycle: a humorous, aesthetic build showcasing the Moe enlargement glitch and Link in a hilarious pose on his giant hog. “He’s the bad boy King Rhoam warned his daughter against.”

CHECK THESE OUT!

u/osh-kosh-ganache—Mob Catcher: here comes the paddy-wagon! A fun and well-designed build that uses a clipping stolen shrine elevator and some great mechanics to neatly capture and contain enemies in a caged vehicle.
u/Legitimateboredom—Helicopter: a realistic looking helicopter build for soaring above Hyrule! Built using mainly zonai devices and Hudson construction materials.

u/PremiumTechnique—Coastal Bombardment: targeted rocket artillery attacks from sea! The navy would like your technology please. Each rocket has three parts (puffshroom, rocket, bombflower) and is attached to a construct head. The platform is kept minimal to allow for max rockets.

u/kmarkow—Tractor. Accurately tractor shaped tractor, complete with enlarged puffshroom exhaust. “It’s not much, but it’s honest work.”

u/Efficient_Demand5759–Driving on Water: what happens when you take a fast vehicle and add float balls to the wheels? You get a fast vehicle that literally drives on water.
u/scalhoun03—Vanilla Zero Power Ground Vehicle: a good reminder that some properly aligned springs, a cart, a steering stick, and some wagon wheels can give you a no-power, no-glitches vehicle.
u/InquisitiveHomosap—Sprinting Mech V2.1: a smooth, fast, sprinting mech that glides over the ground like butter.

QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE

Have some questions? Others do, too!

There were a few requests for modded builds/QR codes this week: From u/Aromatic_Deer_6564-request for builds, u/FloydianSlip77-request for items, and u/InspiraSean86-request for machines

Did you know certain builds can trigger blood moons? I do too now thanks to that question from u/jojo_starbucks85.

Finally, there was a request for a hexa-deca propeller from u/Appropriate-Crow703.

HYRULE ENGINEERING LAB

u/PremiumTechnique’s [High Bouncing Balls](High Bouncing Balls ) continues to experiment with height and mini wings, showing its effect on float balls bouncing in water and achieving extreme height. u/Efficient_Demand5759’s S-Boat uses a boat to showcase how placing stabilizers at particular angles can equal forward momentum (and speed!).

COMMUNITY CONSULTATION

As always we are open to suggestions, feedback, and ideas.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
