Diagonal Walls

Description
A new version is available here!

Adds diagonal wall tiles.

Due to the way Rimworld implements walls, it is not possible to create diagonal walls without tricks and compromises. This mod uses 5 new tiles to cover most use cases.

Basic Wall: A thinner wall that is flush with diagonal walls.
Diagonal Wall: Diagonal wall, with inner/outer corner pieces
Connector Wall: Connects basic and diagonal walls.
Large Diagonal Wall: For walls that are 2+ block thick, allows for better masking.
Large Connector Wall: For walls that are 2+ block thick.



Q+A

Is this compatible with mods that add new walls, such as embrasures?
This mod adds new walls, it doesn't modify existing ones at all. It won't conflict with anything, but there is currently no support for diagonal embrasures.

How does this effect the hitboxes?
Hitboxes are unchanged. Diagonal walls are functionally identical to regular walls, they are just a reskin.

Is there a way to fix the shadows?
As far as I know, there is no way to add diagonal roof shadows or sun shadows. Those are created by the engine. Consider using the No Shadows for best results.

Mix and Match leads to a roofed room being outside?
I blame Earthshaker

Too finiky for my taste. The compromise seems to be to not use hold + drag and have a wall, but place each brick by brick. I do like the idear of diagonal walls, would it have been the same aproach as with normal walls for the user.

I can't get this mod or Diagonal 2 working - trying to drag diagonally just forces either a vertical or horizontal blueprint, and the blueprints build as normal walls...trying to build on top of a normal wall doesnt work (thats what the video in the other mod shows) and building individual diagonal blueprints dont connect up, just stay as normal squares, like the way you have to build diagonally in vanilla. What am I doing wrong? I've tried on a fresh save

Does this allow normal painting of the diagonal walls? Also, and without understanding how much work is involved, could you create this functionality for flooring (and floor painting too? This way a diagonal room can be completely optimized and creates endless design possibilities I'm looking forward to trying :) thank you!

Wait a minute, I thought it should connect well with vanilla walls, but in fact I should use wall from this mod only if I want to avoid inconsistency : (
