The Mechanical Engineer Update is an unofficial community-made update by Samuel Pires and inspired by Diamo Lima's Guard Dog Update. It was released several months prior to the official Engineer Update.
Day 1
- Day 1 introduced a new building called the Mothership. It appeared as a small team-colored blimp that acts as a Dispenser. The idea of the Mothership was it was easier to move around when changing spots.
- The Mothership's downside was the gas used to fly was hydrogen, a flammable gas. If the Mothership was damaged it would explode and possibly injure both teammates and enemies.
- A snapshot was featured of a new community map called cp_generator.
Day 2
- The Hellraiser was to be released on Day 2. It was a Nail Gun with a mini-container filled with radioactive gas provided by Mann Co. and nails manufactured by Saxton Hale's teeth. It was intended to give away cloaked Spy positions with a green radioactive glow.
- The infamous achievement_idle map was added as a King of the Hill map.
Day 3
- The EMP was a projectile that the Engineer could throw to destroy Sticky Bombs, Sappers and other electronics.
Day 4
- The Machinist Chest was a new building that would allow Engineers to upgrade teammates' weapons with faster reloads, accessories, and other tweaks, lasting for a single life.
- The bottom of Day 4 joked about the Engineer achievements, saying "Write every single one? OK, I give up!" and ending with a message from Samuel announcing that the update was indeed fake and explaining how he was inspired by Diogo Lima and his Guard Dog Update.
Day 5
- The Teleportal worked like a regular Teleporter, except the exit could be thrown to attach it to walls and ceilings, with the downside being a slower recharge time.
- 35 Engineer achievements were listed, mostly having to do with the new weapons and buildings.
