Solutions are a type of ammunition used solely by the Clentaminator and Terraformer. Each solution will convert certain blocks and walls to other blocks and walls, creating and/or destroying different biomes in the process. There are 8 different solutions. 7 of them are sold by the Steampunker, who sells different solutions based on certain conditions, and one is sold by the Truffle, who always sells it.

Solutions cannot be purchased in Don't dig up and Get fixed boi worlds.
