Metal Walls

Metal walls are a defensive structure that can be built to seal entranceways, reinforce entry/exit points, and can be used in the creation of completely new structures.

All metal walls and metal windows requires a player to have a propane torch, an welding mask, and welding rods to construct. The strength of the wall itself is dependant on the level of the actual wall. Metal walls can begin with wooden frames or metal frames.

A player must read The Metalwork Magazine Vol. 1 to construct metal walls.

Construction

Right-clicking on a bars on a metal frame shows the upgrade menu.

To build a metal wall, a player must first either equip a hammer and build a wooden frame, or equip a propane torch and welder mask, then build a metal frame. After the frame has been constructed, it can then upgrade this frame with metal sheets.

To construct a Metal Frame, a player would require 3 skill points in metalworking. To upgrade a wall to Level 1, it requires 2 points in metalworking. For Level 2 it requires 8 levels in metalworking.

Wooden and metal frames provide additive health to the overall health of the wall: for instance, a metal frame upgraded to a metal wall would have 370 total health.

Metal walls can be destroyed quickly by a sledgehammer, though you will not regain any materials, and unlike Wooden Walls, they cannot be plastered/painted.
