cant disassemble front walls

[red valve]

I'm high enough carpentry level to disassemble these wooden walls, which I am allowed to have the option for the side walls but not the front ones here with the door, I've tried clicking and moving my character all over the place but I'm just not getting the option

@primal path @wild jay @surreal thunder

is it because of the roof?

[surreal thunder]

normally for walls unless they are player made walls they have to be destroyed with a sledge right?

[primal path]

Yup. Sledge.

[red valve]

so why am i able to take down the side walls?

this is the same exact walls as the front ones with the door

[surreal thunder]

these look like level 3 carpentry walls, that's probably why they can be disassembled

[red valve]

the front ones with the door?

[surreal thunder]

no the red one

[primal path]

Yeah, some walls are coded differently than others.

[red valve]

I can still take it apart

so some walls I can disassemble and some not despite being the same tpye of wall?

[surreal thunder]

yes, i said the reason you can disassemble those is because they appear to be the level 3 carpentry walls

[red valve]

oh i missread it

but same goes for the walls with the door?

I'm not understanding where the problem is for those walls vs these

theyre also level 3 carpentry walls

its not that I need some tool to take them down, its that I'm not even getting the prompt in the first place

[surreal thunder]

okay so, they are not the same kind of wall. look at the outside and look at the inside. those are different tiles. the only kind of walls that can be disassembled instead of destroyed are the carpentry (and metalworking) walls

you would think that like a real wall, the one side is different than the other, but in pz walls only have the side facing you

[red valve]

so the other side of walls in this shed (ones i cannot view) are a higher quality wall?

which require a sledge hammer

[surreal thunder]

i guess you could say higher quality, i would describe them as "world" walls or something, like the "world fences" that can't be destroyed by zombies. those wall tiles can't be made by players (without mods)

[red valve]

is this specifically because i cannot view their tiles which doesnt give the prompt?

cause I cannot disassemble the ones I normally can from the outside

only when I'm on the inside

[surreal thunder]

no, it's because that type of tile has no code for being disassembled, but the sledge can destroy any tile without restriction

[red valve]

gotcha

i guess ill mark sledge hammer down on the shopping list with the generator magazine

[surreal thunder]

ya if you are looking to do home renovation i suggest finding a sledge

[red valve]

thanks for the help, was pretty confused

[wild jay]

Has shelf attached. Remove shelf and try again

[red valve]

look at the photos previously

that image was to show that I can take the walls down

but the walls with the door i cannot

no prompt

while over there, there is

crispy chesnuts said its cause of the scripts and that i need a sledge hammer

[wild jay]

Well yer already breaking down walls you can’t normally break.

That means you have a mod.

So contact the mod author and let them know not all walls are covered.

Wall, wall+window, outdoor wall, outdoor wall + aluminum siding, etc. etc. are all DIFFERENT walls so need to be in the recipe to be recognized.

Just like bottles with blue labels, orange labels or bleach bottles all have separate item names.

[red valve]

oh i just fixed my computer and got back on zomboid after a year

forgot what all the mods i had installed were

[wild jay]

Recipes are weird that way.

“Bedroom wall” is different than “pink floral wallpaper wall”.

So making a mod to destroy walls means you need to list both.

Otherwise you get what you are seeing: some walls can be taken down. Others cannot

[red valve]

gotcha

ill contact the mod creator and search for a sledge hammer

i just feel like at a certain point in carpentry you could totally disassemble a basic wooden wall from a shed

instead of relying on pure destruction via sledge hammer

hence why i got the mod

[wild jay]

Agreed.

Ever try to shovel up ashes of a burned zombie? Or tried a broom?

Nope. Gotta sledge hammer them
