Wallbreaker AI and Fried Eggs

Firstly, why is there suddenly a fried egg on my map? Coincidentally it seems to mark the centre of the 40x40 grid, but I swear I've never seen it before.

Secondly, I've just upgraded to TH4 and finally have some more walls to play around so I'm trying to come up with a new design. I'm quite happy with what I've come up, but I still don't fully understand wallbreakers and was hoping someone might be able to help me here. What I want to know is, can a wallbreaker punch through the junction I've marked with an arrow to open up both compartments (the smaller one is just for illustration, I ran out of walls to draw my arrow lol) at once by destroying the wall piece at the T-junction?

Yes, the egg is the center of your map.

Released at exactly that spot, the wallbreaker will not break that junction. It will break the corner at the left first. The 2nd wallbreaker is virtually guaranteed to break that junction though, even though it will hit the right corner first.

As long as the junction has other qualified targets in front of it, the wallbreaker will not attack the farthest one first. However, about two squares to the right, the right corner becomes the closest, and the splash from the wb will definitely reach that junction by hitting the corner.

Yes like super said. It marks the center. There is a really good video explaining the wall breaker ai.

Basically wall breakers dont go for walls that stick out. They only go for walls that have something inside them. When the building inside it is open to troops it will not destroy any more walls. It will move on to the next wall the protects another building. I suggest video, it really helpful!

Congrats on your th 4, welcome to the game and forum. Don't be sky to ask question. Don't rush town hall and enjoy the game =)

Fried eggs !!! Lol ..that was good ...
i saw the video it really explains a lot .. Wbs aim for the nearest enclosed building and blow up any walls that are on the way ... So it is impossible to aim for the junction with the first wb as the junc wont lie in the wbs path , rite ?

Thanks for the help, and that guide by Flammy is very good.

There's just one thing still that I'm not too sure about, and it came towards the end of the vid at about 9:15 where there is a rectangular box added onto the wall. He says that wallbreakers will go around it "because they will take the shorter path", but isn't the reason really because it's an empty compartment so not worth breaking into?

And if that's the case, I'm guessing that what I've done here (next to the barracks) won't work and a wallbreaker will just break through both layers opening both compartments?

Also how do I delete attachments on this board?

Wbs, if deployed by that barrack, will blow the walls in front of one cannon or the other, its unlikely they will blow the junction between the two initially.

Go to settings and scroll down to attachments to delete them

even though WB now attack double walls they still will not attack double walls unless that is the only think to attack with buildings behind it.

I see, great! I can save two wall pieces now, I need them to finish my design. =p

I was trying to delete the attachments from my phone before and I don't think it liked the page layout, but thanks got it sorted now.

edit: Actually, what then is the purpose of Flammy leaving a gap in the video; is it to prevent archers from shooting over it with their 3 square range?

Are you referring to a length of wall, a gap , and another length of wall protecting the first wall? Yes it would keep archers back but for wbs it will make them blow two walls to get in, depending on the deployment spot.
