| − | {{Quotation|'''The Engineer''' on his profession|Hey look, buddy. I'm an engineer—that means I solve problems. <br> Not problems like 'What is beauty?' because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. <br> I solve '''practical problems.'''}}
| |
| − | A soft-spoken, amiable Texan with an interest in all things mechanical, the '''Engineer''', real name '''Dell Conagher''', chooses to construct and maintain [[Buildings]] that benefit the team rather than engage in much direct combat. The Engineer's various gadgets include the [[Sentry Gun]], an automated turret that fires at any enemy in range, the [[Dispenser]], a device that replenishes the health and ammo of nearby teammates, and [[Teleporter]]s that quickly transport his teammates to the fray.
| |
| | | | |
| − | However, the Engineer's ingenious devices are under constant threat from explosives and devious enemy [[Spies]]; a good Engineer must keep his gear under a watchful eye and in good repair at all times. When the Engineer needs to get his hands dirty, his trio of generic yet capable [[#Weapons|weapons]], combined with the assistance of his helpful hardware, make him more than capable of holding his own in a fight.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Engineer is also capable of hauling buildings which he has already constructed and redeploying them in new locations at the cost of a lower footspeed and the inability to use weapons while carrying them. Buildings are vulnerable during the hauling process, as they will be destroyed if the Engineer is killed; they also need some time to redeploy after being hauled.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Engineer is voiced by [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0328879/ Grant Goodeve].

| |
| − | == Trivia ==
| |
| − | *The Engineer is the shortest class in the game.
| |
| − | **The Beta Engineer was previously designed to be much taller.
| |
| − | *The Engineer wears his default helmet backwards; however, this is not an uncommon practice among construction workers.
| |
| − | *The Engineer rarely removes his welding goggles. In fact the only official time his naked eyes were revealed was in the [[Loose_Canon|"Loose Canon"]] comic.
| |
| − | **The character model actually has the goggles as part of his face. There are no modeled eyeballs underneath them.
| |
| − | *The Engineer designed and built the [[Sentry Gun]] under contract from [[TF Industries]] in 1965. The PDF manual for the game that is listed in Steam shows a blueprint and promotional guide to using the Sentry Gun.
| |
| − | *The Engineer's favorite equation is in fact part of the equation that governs character lighting in-game, known as {{vdc|Phong}}.
| |
| − | *The Engineer's counterpart in the original team of mercenaries BLU hired was supposedly {{w|Nikola Tesla}}, armed with a bag of blueprints instead of a PDA.
| |
| − | *The song the Engineer plays during ''[[Meet the Engineer]]'' is titled "[[More Gun (Soundtrack)|More Gun]]", which is based on "Someone Else's Song" and was originally written by Jeff Tweedy of the American Country band {{w|Wilco}}.
| |
| − | *A photograph on the Engineer update page displays a young boy (presumably the Engineer) trying on his first pair of goggles, as [[Engineer (Classic)|the Engineer]] from ''[[Team Fortress Classic]]'' looks on proudly and pats him on the shoulder. This picture does create an inconsistency, as the ''Team Fortress Classic'' takes place in a more futuristic setting, whereas ''Team Fortress 2'' takes place in 1968.
| |
| − | *The Engineer makes an appearance as a large cutout upon one of the forts in ''{{W|Worms: Reloaded}}''. The rest of the fort is comprised of recognizable parts of [[2Fort]]. The Engineer's hardhat and goggles are also a selectable hat for the player's worms.
| |
| − | *The Engineer's voice actor and the [[Soldier]]'s voice actor have both voiced the character {{W|Wolf O'Donnell}} from Nintendo's {{W|Star Fox (series)|Star Fox}} series: [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0328879/ Grant Goodeve] (the Engineer) in ''{{W|Star Fox: Assault}}'', and [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1653371/ Rick May] (the Soldier) in ''{{W|Star Fox 64}}''.
