Functionality

Functionality[]

When thrown, Port-A-Cover will instantly deploy a small barricade structure. This can be seen by holding the item first, and readying the throw, to show exactly where the barricade will land. Barricade doesn't destroy structures that are in it's way.

Port-A-Cover consists of 4 pieces: front piece with Health - Icon - Fortnite 800 Health, 2 side pieces with Health - Icon - Fortnite 550 Health and an interactable piece at the front with Health - Icon - Fortnite 400 Health. Interactable piece can be deployed or hidden, allowing safer peeking from cover.
