Physics Tree Devices

The Physics Tree is a large tree that can be chopped down by players. Unlike typical trees in Fortnite, which disappear when destroyed, this tree has a trunk that will fall after taking a certain amount of damage (becoming a log). The log can crash down through structures, people or creatures, depending on where you place it. It is subject to physics and gravity, so it will collide with players, creatures, vehicles, structures, and terrain. You can determine the maximum amount of damage the log does when it hits something (although the actual damage depends on the speed of the tree on impact).

Some devices have a limit on how many times that device can be placed on an island. This is independent of how much memory the device uses. You can only place a total of 25 Physics Trees and Physics Boulders on an island. Both types of Physics objects count toward that limit.
