Basic Walls

Examples

• Copper Wall from Mindustry's source code.

• Large Lead Wall from Exampledustry.

name: "Large Lead Wall"
scaledHealth: 80
type: wall
requirements: [
  lead/24
]

// Research
research: {
    // Large lead wall will be the child of lead wall.
    parent: lead-wall
    // Lead must be researched to use the wall
    objectives: [
       lead
    ]
}

Lightning Walls

Examples

• Surge Wall from Mindustry's Source Code

• Silicon Wall from Exampledustry.

Walls can emit lightning if it's properties are set correctly.

name: Large Shocking
type: wall
...
lightningChance: 1 // Will always strike when Hit.
lightningDamage: 2000 // KAMEHAMEHAAA
lightningLength: 200 // Careful with these values, they could lag your game.
lightningColor: 4096ff // A nice light blue color.
lightningSound: spark // This is the default sound.

Deflecting Walls

Walls can deflect bullets. An example of a deflecting wall is the phase wall.

Walls can have a chance to deflect bullets.

If chanceDeflect is set to 1 or higher then bullets will always be deflected.

name: "Bouncy Wall"
type: wall
...
chanceDeflect: 0.5 // Bullets will deflect half of the time
flashHit: true
flashColor: ff0000 // Red flash

Laser Absorbing Wall

An example of this kind of wall is the plastanium wall.

Walls that absorb lasers don't use a property that is owned by Wall. absorbLasers is owned by Block and can be used by Wall because Wall extends Block

name: "Laser Eating Wall"
type: wall
...
absorbLasers: true

Tips and Tricks

scaledHealth

scaledHealth is a property of Block. scaledHealth can be used instead of health to make your wall's health more consistent. It multiplies the health of the block by its area. You will still have to make scaledHealth the same across all walls of the same type, you just don't have to multiply their health.

size: 1
scaledHealth: 350 // 1^2 * 350 = 350 Health

size: 2
scaledHelath: 350 // 2^2 * 350 = 1400 Health

size: 3
scaledHealth: 350 // 3^2 * 350 = 3150 Health
