This article is an unfinished work in progress or contains transferred information that needs to be rewritten or reformatted to fit our standards. Please excuse the mess and do not mark for deletion.
- This article is about the different types of rock in LEGO Rock Raiders. For the tutorial level about how to drill these, see 2. Rock Types And Drilling.
These are the various kinds of rock (or as they are frequently referred to, walls).
As opposed to Ground Types, walls surround the Level and under most circumstances, cannot be traversed. Any type of wall except Seams and Solid Rock can be turned into Reinforced Walls, and every wall except Solid Rock and Recharge Seams can be mined. All walls are designated in the Surf.map file.
Rock types
FFCF00 00FF00 FF0000
Dirt
Dirt is the weakest rock type. Rock Raiders can drill it in just four seconds, and vehicles can plow through it almost instantly. On the radar panel, Dirt appears as when exposed, and when hidden.
Dirt is designated in the Terrain map with a hexadecimal value of 04 00
or 05 00
in the Windows version, and with a value of 02 00
in the PlayStation version.
In other languages
- Dutch: Gruis
Loose Rock
Loose Rock is an intermediate rock type. Because it is denser than Dirt, it takes eight seconds for Rock Raiders to drill, but vehicles can still mine it quickly. On the radar panel, Loose Rock appears as when exposed, and when hidden.
Loose Rock is designated in the Terrain map with a hexadecimal value of 03 00
in both the Windows version and the PlayStation version.
In other languages
- Dutch: Los Steen
Hard Rock
Hard Rock is the toughest rock type that can be mined. Rock Raiders cannot drill it, and even the Small Digger and Granite Grinder take a very long time to mine it. Only dynamite, the Chrome Crusher's drill, and the most powerful mining lasers can destroy Hard Rock in a reasonable time. On the radar panel, Hard Rock appears as when exposed, and when hidden.
Hard Rock is designated in the Terrain map with a hexadecimal value of 02 00
in the Windows version, and with a value of 04 00
in the PlayStation version.
In other languages
- Dutch: Hard Steen
- German: Hartes Gestein
Solid Rock
Solid Rock is an impenetrable rock type used as the boundaries of a level. It cannot be mined by anything. On the radar panel, Solid Rock appears as when exposed, and when hidden.
Solid Rock is designated in the Terrain map with a hexadecimal value of 01 00
in the Windows version, and with a value of 05 00
in the PlayStation version.
In other languages
- Dutch: Massief steen
- Swedish: Fast berg
Soil
Soil is an unused rock type. Its drill times, tool tip name, and textures still exist within the game data, but it cannot be placed in a map without swapping it around with a used wall type by hex-editing the executable file. It was presumably meant to be much weaker than dirt, and unused sound files indicate it may have been originally called "Soft Soil" and Dirt "Hard Soil".
Soil was likely meant to be designated with a hexadecimal value of 05 00
in the Windows version. Unfortunately, its ability to be designated seems to have been disabled for some reason, meaning it can't be used at all.
