The Coral Pillar is a pillar in the Coral Structure Set . A pillar is a stackable form of a foundation, which is required for building any kind of housing or storage structure.

Construction

The Stone Pillar can be placed on even or slightly uneven ground, or on the top or bottom of foundations, ceilings, or other pillars. Once the first Pillar is placed, subsequent pillars can snap into place on the top or bottom of the first one, provided there is adequate room to do so.

A pillar or series of pillars with the bottom touching the ground and a ceiling on top will function as a foundation, providing support and allowing structures to be built on top of it.

Support

See also: Foundation

Pillars provides sufficient support to allow a structure built on top of it to extend up to 2 ceilings in any direction on the x and y-axis, and up to 1 ceiling diagonally, not counting the center ceiling. However, the ceilings on the far end will not support walls.

Notes

Like other coral structures, the Coral Pillar has half the durability as its Wooden counterpart, but takes significantly less damage from all sources.
Since the Coral Pillar doesn't have gaps in it like the Wooden Pillar and is more flat on top; most players prefers using the Stone Pillar while trying to build even structures or for lowering floor foundations.
If a pillar is destroyed, any building pieces that rely on it for support will be destroyed as well. If it was destroyed via the demolish option, no resources will be refunded for these extra building pieces.
Due to coral structures only having one color region, hitting them with a paintbrush will not pull up a menu, but instead simply paint the foundation with whatever color is currently being used on the brush.
This coral structure gives the Coral Air buff while nearby, which regenerates oxygen and stamina, and refills oxygen shoulder pets air supply.
Like all coral structures the pillar slowly heals over time at a rate of 1 point every 10 seconds.
When placed underwater, a bubble particle effect will rise from this structure.
