Falling rock
Falling rocks are debris that drop from fractured steel blocks.
As a timed trap, the rock falls every 20 seconds (approximately) and crushes any unfortunate lemming caught under its weight. The debris falls straight down and is dispersed once it hits the ground, hits indestructible blocks, or hits any lemming structure.
Properties
- A falling rock is preempted by loose dirt crumbling away from the trap before the drop, making it possible to predict and even dodge the rocks using instructions
- Falling rocks can be avoided mid-air by using gliders
- Any lemming-built structure can safeguard against falling rocks, making it possible for lemmings to take shelter under bridges or by ducking in or under stairs
- Builders are sometimes protected from the impact of falling rocks by the stairs they are in the process of building (inconsistently, in between having just placed a brick and before stepping on it)
- Falling rocks can be intercepted and destroyed by some traps, namely by extended saws and smoke monsters
- Falling rocks detonate dynamite
- Lemmings inside bubbles are generally protected from falling rocks
Variants[]
