RT-55J: Lines!

2021-02-14T02:40:52Z

Lines!

New page

{{Element
|zzt-oop name=line
|id={{Byte|31}}
|char={{CharSwatch|206}}
|stats=no
|category=terrain
|effect on movement=wall
|destructible=no
|uses zzt-oop color=yes
}}

The '''line''' element (or more colloquially, "linewall") is one of the built-in wall elements in [[ZZT]]. It cannot be moved and is impervious to all damage. It is functionally identical to the [[solid]] and [[normal]], except with a sophisticated drawing procedure. Lines can be placed in all of the default [[ZZT-OOP]] colors and can be placed in any of the available colors with an external editor.

== Draw Procedure ==

When linewalls are drawn they check if each of the four tiles surrounding them are either another line or a [[edge|board edge]], and then pick the corresponding tile from the following table:

If a portion of a linewall is removed from the board, then the surrounding linewalls will not update their graphics accordingly unless something forces them to redraw. The simplest way to do this is to simply have an object run the code <code>#change line line</code>. Other events, such as re-entering the board, reloading from a save, having a text window disappear, or having the tile be revealed by a torch will also have the same effect.
