Hello and welcome to the first Principia building contest on the new community site. This contest's theme is **Destruction**. While all Principia connections are unbreakable by default, you can adjust them to anything below 1.0 for destructibility. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to construct a level that has a focus on destruction. Is it a car crash test site, or a building that needs to be demolished? You have two weeks from the publication of this contest page, and the deadline is on the 15th of August at exactly 10:00 GMT. You can see a countdown below. ## Tips and tricks - Adjusting the strengths of connections are crucial if you aren't going connectionless for this contest! To modify joint strengths in bulk you should select something in the Multi-select mode, then go to the configuration dialog and apply a new strength value in the Joint strength tab. - Explosions are fun! Put some Bombs and Land Mines sprinkled throughout the level, or emit them through Mini emitters for ultimate destruction. - If you want to play on hard mode, don't attach your planks at all! Simply build them with enough support underneath and you can create perfectly fragile buildings that would collapse even by a small gust of wind. ## Scoring Once the contest is over, a winner and a runner-up will be decided by the contest judge (ROllerozxa). Both will get their levels featured on the front page as well as a stylish trophy (gold and silver respectively) on their user page. Unfortunately there is no prize pool for top entries right now, but there may be some special extra rewards that can be arranged to be given out to the winners (if you have something you'd like to contribute, please reach out!). Depending on the amount of entries, there may be some other level entries that will be highlighted for things that are interesting but didn't make it to the top. ## Submitting a level Simply upload your level to the community site, and on the level's page you can see an "Add to contest" dropdown that has now appeared.
