wkIndiMask is a module for WormKit that allows maps to be set up that have both destructable and indestructable parts to them.
There are 3 'types' of terrain, Destructible, Indestructible and Tough (only removed when an explosion occures that will remove the background soil texture)
All info is stored in the PNG palette for the map. In order to set up a map for wkIndiMask, you must first ensure the palette has a particular entry. The module will search for this entry when a game starts and activate or deactivate based on its presence. Because WA throws away unused map palette entries, it will have to exist somewhere on the map. 1 pixel under the water is fine.
This colour is R:240, G:024, B:204. ( #F018CC)
After that, you can pick which colours are destructable or not using the least significalnt bit in the Red component of the colour. So essentially:
If the Red component is even, you can destroy it; if it is odd, you can't.
Further to that, the Green component is similarly used to decide if the colour is Tough.
A colour that has odd for both Red and Green will be set as Tough.
