Walls are impassable structures primarily used to create rooms.
Walls are capable of supporting roofing up to 6 tiles away in all directions. If a wall is destroyed or deconstructed, any unsupported roofing will instantly fall and injure any pawn below it, possibly fatally.
Power conduits may be constructed in an existing wall without the mood penalty if the conduit is not in the wall. Smoothing natural stone walls allows conduits to be placed beneath them.
Walls provide excellent cover from projectile attacks.
Acquisition
Walls are built and repaired by colonists assigned to construct. Wall construction may sometimes fail and waste the materials, more often with lower construction skill.
Walls are constructed with 5 Stuff (Metallic/Woody/Stony, 50 for SMVs) and take 135 ticks (2.25 secs) to build.
Analysis
As far as room stats, most wood and stone walls are interchangeable. The exception is marble walls, which add +1 beauty/wall to any room that shares that wall.
Another consideration is fire. Power conduit, which can occasionally try to start a fire; if the conduit runs under a wooden wall this is guaranteed, but if under a stone wall then only nearby flammable objects may catch fire, and then only if the short is serious enough. And any fire that does start will easily spread to wooden walls, but stone walls will not burn. Strategically placed sections of stone walls will act as a "fire break" to limit the spread of a fire while your colonists fight it.
Walls take double damage from the "bomb" damage type and "thump" damage type, including frag grenades. Granite block walls are more durable, and should be used where damage is expected, such as behind a fixed defensive position, around vulnerable facilities such as remote geothermal generators, or at the receiving end of a killbox. Plasteel walls are by far the most durable, if the valuable material can be purposed for such.
When used as cover, a drafted colonist will "hide" behind a single wall tile or the end of a wall section, and shoot from the side of it, getting 50% cover from it. This can be combined with sand bags or barricades in front of the firing position. Ranged fire cannot go "over" a wall or wall section.

Version history
- 0.7.581 - Wood wall and metal wall merged into wall with the introduction of the stuff system.
- 1.1.0 - Terrain requirements now depends on what they’re built from. This means stone walls can’t be built on bridges any more.
- 1.1.2654 - Increase psyfocus gain of wall from 11 to 22.
- 1.3.3200 - thump damage multiplier versus walls reduced from 4x to 2x.
