Construct is a stock PDA weapon for the Mechanic. It resembles a grey calculator-style device with a team-colored screen and wires, four buttons with buildings icons and four other unlabeled buttons.
It allows the user to build a sentry, dispenser or teleporter depending on how much metal the user has. The sentry gun, a building which shoots enemies from a certain distance with bullets and rockets that takes 130 metal to build, the dispenser, a machine which gives the user and allies health, metal and ammo that takes 100 metal to build and teleporters, a device which takes the user and allies to wherever putting the exit that take 50 metal each to build.
Buildings can be upgraded using 200 metal to gain benefits such as higher firerate, faster healing and quicker recharge.
