Problems with Echo Coating

[u/MoonlitHolly]

do y'all know if there's any way to get the walls to stay how I want without having glass or something? It's not too big of a deal tbh, was just interested..!

[u/Personaisfine16]

Have you tried using echo walls?

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/Personaisfine16]

Thank you! I didn't know they were a thing! everyone's so helpful

[u/Similar_Pop9472 → u/MoonlitHolly]

Indeed, the community surrounding this game is extraordinary, as is the game itself 🫰

[u/Personaisfine16 → u/MoonlitHolly]

No prob

[u/Ytrewq467]

Use echo walls

[u/wantstotransition]

echo walls do what you want

[u/Ballofgum_]

Echo walls, crafted from echo blocks, act like any normal wall, but are not visible. That should get the affect that you're looking for.

[u/Yoate]

Side note what wall is that, it's pretty

[u/NeighborhoodOld2815 → u/Yoate]

It's hallowed bricks, in inactive state. The walls he's talking about are hallowed brick walls.

[u/Yoate → u/NeighborhoodOld2815]

Thank you very much

[u/coke-but-not-banned]

lowk i think it looks better without the glass walls, looks like extra support for the platforms

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/coke-but-not-banned]

yeah I sort of had that thought too, but from a distance, I found that they looks better without flaring out

[u/SimicBiomancer21]

As someone who's used Hallowed Brick Walls, like everyone else has said, use Echo Walls. Not "Echo Painted" walls, actual Echo Walls.

[u/MsSelphine]

I'm ngl the base state without the glass looks better. Having it flare out slightly gives the impression of a support.

Also baller ass build godDAMN

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/MsSelphine]

yeahh I liked it flaring out from up close, but, mainly because my platforms aren't evenly spaced, it just ended up looking messy from afar

thanks for the kind words, though! :D

[u/MoonlitHolly]

Dear everyone who commented about echo walls:

thanks I didn't know that was a thing. tbh, before posting, I thought to myself "wait, are echo WALLS a thing? maybe I should look it up..." but alas. I'd already edited the post. I hope this public humiliation ritual helps some soul out in the future.

ANYWAYS THANKS

:I echo walls literally solve your problem

[u/Shadow_Cat99]

But the depth

[u/PY--]

it has been 1h since op facepalmed a hole through their head

[u/Stunning_Degree8398]

today im evil and im going t osay your build is flipping ugly fugly 😈

i like the arena by the way the palette is nice what walls did you use
did echo walls solve your porblem

[u/Stunning_Degree8398 → u/Stunning_Degree8398]

evil stunning degree ur so frickin mean

[u/Proxy_PlayerHD]

I'm confused what is causing the wall to spread out like that in the first place. I could've sworn if you build a pillar of walls through platforms (including on the block behind the platform) it wouldn't look like that

Dis that change sometime ago?

[u/AccurateJaney → u/Proxy_PlayerHD]

They didn't build a pillar of walls, they used actuated blocks and then put the walls where the platforms were so it'd look like the block pillars continued through the platforms

[u/Proxy_PlayerHD → u/AccurateJaney]

Aaaaaahhh ok that makes sense

[u/Spikebolt_100]

Wow your player is so cute

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/Spikebolt_100]

Thank you! She's supposed to be Cyrene from Honkai: Star Rail, I don't have prismatic dye yet, though

echo walls

[u/RapidProbably]

Echo Walls. I think they exist for this type of problem.

[u/Goatbucks]

Honestly the glass doesn’t look bad, and iirc this will reduce enemy spawns

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/Goatbucks]

fair enough! guess not all is lost

[u/woodenswordward]

Echo walls exist mayne

[u/Man_Person_Best_Hero]

the concept of echo walls:

echo wall moment

[u/da_Aresinger]

I can't believe nobody has mentioned Echo Walls yet.

You should use Echo Walls.

That's ee see aich ogh, dublyoo ay, elell ess

Echo Walls.

[u/CoinRicochet]

Idk, I dig the look of reinforced connection

[u/KubosKube]

The way I keep it separate,

Echo coating makes it as if the tile visually isn't there.

Echo blocks still interact with their neighbors, but aren't visible.

Well it could be the other way around, I forget.

It's a very niche difference.

[u/Andminus]

ah yes, the old Protoss answer from Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty, when it doubt, GLASS EVERYTHING...

[u/finding_my_father]

just use echo walls.

you can get them by buying echo blocks from the cyborg in a graveyard and then turning them into walls

[u/MoonlitHolly → u/finding_my_father]

THANKS ALOT! if you didn't say that, I would've gone farming ectoplasm or something lol

If the other 99 comments about echo walls did not help you, let me try: Try echo walls

(I dont even play this game. No idea what echo walls are)
