Melon Sandbox vehicle building

Last checked 2026-10-29 · melon sandbox vehicles, passengers, speedometer

For Jeep passengers, the community wiki describes pausing and dragging a living's head to a seat until a green outline appears. For a custom vehicle, Car Seat is only a seat: Motorized Wheel supplies rotation and Rocket Engine supplies thrust. The linked item pages document those parts, not a complete car or Cessna recipe.

Stock vehicles the wiki lists

The community navigation groups Jeep, APC, scooter, bus, truck, bicycle, car seat, and banana ride with land vehicles; submarine, inflatable boat, speed boat, underwater scooter, and banana boat are water entries. Helicopter is the flying entry, and its wiki page describes START DRIVING in the context menu. A seat is a building part, not a complete powered vehicle.

A seat is not an engine

  • Car Seat holds a living. It does not add a motor.
  • Motorized Wheel or Rocket Engine is what moves a custom chassis.
  • Jeep already has seats. Pause before you drag the head, or the living will not lock.
  • Green outline: allowed. Red outline: dead living, or a jeep missing two tires.

Custom builds and speedometers: what is documented

Motorized Wheel rotates when activated; its wiki page describes torque settings. Rocket Engine's context menu has an edit-parameters force setting. Use the building guide for sourced connection concepts. The linked speed-meter video uses a Chip, Text Screen, and Glow Label: read velocity, round it, and display text. It does not establish a UI Control toggle, universal wiring preset, car assembly order, or flight-control recipe. Cessna and Cadillac builds are player creations.

Questions people ask

How do I put a passenger in a vehicle?

On the Jeep page: pause, drag a living's head onto the driver seat or the trunk seat. A green outline means it can sit. Red means the living is dead or the jeep lost two tires. Other vehicles are not documented the same way.

How do I make a speedometer?

Use a Chip, a text screen, and a glow label. Read velocity in km/h, round it, and print the string. The December 2024 AJ_Melon video shows the wire-up. It is not a single UI Control toggle.

Is there an official Cessna or Cadillac?

No. Those names are player contraptions. The stock list I can cite is Jeep, APC, scooter, bus, truck, helicopter, bicycle, car seat, and banana ride, plus a few boats.
