Plumbots cannot age up, as if they are immortal/ageless, just like the [[SimBot]]s and [[Servo]]s. But they can age up by either activating the [[cheat]] '''testingcheatsenabled true''', shift-click the plumbot that you wish to age up, and click "Trigger Age Transition" or a message shows that it's their birthday, which this is a glitch. Once they age up, they don't die rather they will become invisible or their skins will be disappeared. Although this is harmless in the game, it is not recommended to let them be glitched.
