How do I make wooden walls immune to rams?
Wanted for:
Breaking and gluing back together and trying to pass off as never being broken in the first place.
Assault with a weapon that couldn't have possibly been deadly, but unfortunately was

Re: Walls?
You’ all knows that rams can destroy wooden walls, but how can I make it so they don't can anymore?

I suspect this one is hard-coded.

Re: Walls?
Well, the walls (not the gates) themselves can be made invulnerable simply by replacing the straight sections of wall with tower sections. I've done this in Title of Liberty TW with all the wooden walls for example.
I'm not sure there is a way to block rams or block them from being used on gates - that does seem to involve some hardcoded elements.
I was trying to find a way of having ladders without having siege towers but the two seem inextricably linked - either both are active or both are deactivated(if anyone knows different let me know!)

If it helps, in the FATW no ladders are used at all. You could try asking them.Originally Posted by MasterOfNone

Re: Walls?
But I don't want the gates to be invulnerable, just the walls.

That's what MoN said. The gates cannot be made invulnerable anyway.

Umm... MoN is the former Coding Manager of FATW...
And we do use ladders in FATW.

Re: Walls?
They do? Maybe its just the dwarves who dont then. IVe only played custom battles as the dwarves, as, well, THEIR DWARVES!
Come to think of it, dwarves climbing seige ladders would look very silly...

Re: Walls?
Nope, I'm pretty sure we do use ladders. Trust me, I'm FATW's current coding manager...
As MoN said, ladders seem to be tied to towers, so Dwarves will have to manage.

Re: Walls?
Im not saying I doubt you, but when I played a seige battle with dunland attacking a top-level dwarven city, no ladders were allowed to be used by dunland. Is that becase of the size of the walls in top-tier cities, or something else?

Re: Walls?
Yes, ladders cannot be used on Large Stone Walls (which is the higher wall level we are using).

Re: Walls?
That explains it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Re: Walls?
I know how to do this but its really complicated .bpi stuff. You need max to do it properly and you would need to remake the wall .bpi from scratch coz you cant backwards convert .bpis. Basically there's an object called... I forget... and it has to not exist for rams to not be able to attack the walls. I refer you guys here for more info (mainly coz i dont have time before labs start to explain).
