His question isn't about hellstone walls.

[Frumple]

The spawn-creation one included the hellstone brick, yes, along with the dungeon walls, which are also brick. Further testing would include both raw and brick forms~

An interesting, if somewhat hellish (heh) to set up, test would be to stone-brick a large area around one of those hell buildings, to see if hellstone brick backwall prevents spawning, particularly when turned into a room. 99.9% sure it doesn't, but it'd be an interesting thing to see, anyway.

Re: dungeon brick, though, does it require just a certain amount of dungeon brick (not backwall, just the brick) in an area to trigger dungeon spawning, or do you have a make a "room" of dungeon wall + backwall? If the latter, anyone know how large th'minimum size is, at least roughly? E: I had a decent-ish sized undergound room (Maybe 15x15 or so?) made solely from dungeon material, but nothing was showing up inside

[SirAaronIII]

I think that the hell mobs only spawn at a certain depth, aka the hell layer. Hellstone and ash don't affect it.

[Frumple]

Well, there's a difference here between thinking and testing. I'd say we know, fairly well, that at the least a fair amount of transplanted hellstone brick does not induce hellspawn. However, I've certainly not seen copious amounts of hellstone brick or raw hellstone used in construction somewhere, so I certainly couldn't say whether it does or does not. At least, not without code diving or, yanno', going and checking.

I'll do that after a nap, if someone doesn't beat me to it. 150 brick, 150 ore, make a solid block (6 or 7 wide, straight up) tower and see if something happens. I don't think anything will, but I won't know until I go and check.

EMPIRICISM!

I checked the code, there's no boolean variable for hell/underworld like there are for dungeon, evil (corruption), and jungle, which are toggled on when there's a sufficient number of tiles of the proper type in the area.

Is there one for meteorite?

[quinnr]

Hey quinnr, I have a couple of crystals spare if you want them.

I appreciate the offer but I'd rather find them myself. It'll just take a lot of work xD

Okay, question: For Ebonstone, I can break it with dynamite, right? Then I'd need a second dynamite for the Shadow Orb underneath?

[Max White]

Yea, you can blast it with dynamite. And no, you can break it with a wooden hammer, but people say you need two sticks because good luck finding a spot so thin that you only need one stick to break through to it. You almost always need  two sticks, sometimes one, on a rare occasion three.

[quinnr]

Oh I see. Thanks! (I was going to run out with a couple, but now I better buy more!)

My server is testing new server software, Tshock.

It's pretty good, I recommend you other server admins check it out.

Ban/kick/summon all the bosses at once...

The crazy thing is that I COULD.

[mattie2009]

I have molten armor and a firey greatsword.

BRING ON YOUR 27 SKELETRON CHALLENGE.

[Wolf Tengu]

Ah, cool.

I had that, against one Skeletron.
I got curbstomped.


Altough I forgot to bring any potions..
