Maze Wall

by hsp9513

This mod makes walls indestructible. Enemies bypass walls without destroying them to get to their destination. This wall can be used to craft a maze for enemies. The gate is still a target for enemies to destroy.

I'd love it if this got an update to work with the new update and expansion. Any plans to do so?

Hey, I updated the mod to be compatible with 2.0

Apologies for the delay in updating the mod; I was caught up enjoying the DLC and only just got around to reading your comment. While Tengtor has already uploaded an updated version, I’ve now updated my mod as well.

edit: I assumed the walls are indestructible

I hadn't thought about that, but after testing, it seems that destruction caused by asteroids cannot be prevented.

Failed to load mods: Error while loading recipe prototype "maze-wall" (recipe): IngredientPrototype must be a dictionary and contain "type" property.
Shorthand format using an array is no longer supported in property tree at ROOT.recipe.maze-wall.ingredients[0]

It looks like at least one line of code needs to be revised to conform with the new syntax requirements.

Thank you for the report. I have confirmed that the issue occurs when the option "add new wall prototype" is enabled, and I have fixed it.

(Was going to create my own thread, but I can't delete the comment.)

Was trying to find a way to connect with ya, but I can't find you on Discord, BuyMeACoffee, or Patreon.

When you create a wall that surrounds the whole base, does this mode make it impenetrable?

I'm looking for a way to use existing walls to build a maze and if the entrance (gate or hole) gets blocked, they destroy the walls. I'd love to build mazes without it feeling cheaty. Would be even cooler if they'd decide "eh this is too long of a path, I'll just go through it."

This kind of mod is 100% necessary for this game lol
Does this mod provide that, or can you?

Hello Pandize,
This mod simply makes player-built walls indestructible so that enemies can't attack them and must go around instead.
If you use these maze walls to completely block the entrance, it seems that biters won’t even generate a path into your base.
While there could be a way to remove the indestructible property when the walls are fully sealed off, determining whether the path is completely blocked is difficult, and I have no plans to implement such a feature.
