[The towers] (#tower

) ## {: #tower_technical}

Technical characteristic ##### {: #tower_construction}
Construction The towers of a sector are built systematically at the same time as the latter. Thus, in the case of Lyoko Towers you must configure them at the same time as the sector you want to build via the virtual constructor. Note that if a tower is destroyed, it will automatically repair in the same location and with the same characteristics as before it was destroyed.

WayTower Access

The code [label] {purple} WayTower Access [label] allows you to limit access to the towers only to beings with a unique virtual signature, namely the lyoko warriors. Therefore, monsters or clones cannot enter virtual shrines.

WayTower Road

The [label] {yellow} WayTower Road [label] code allows you to configure the data tunnels connecting the towers #1 of each [surface territory] (73 #sector_lyoko_surface) to the [5^th Territory] (73 #sector_lyoko_core) as well as the virtual roads connecting the crossing towers with each other.

{: #tower_destruction} Destruction

Each tower has [label] {green-light} [label] health points whose total percentage is shown in real time on the Superscan when you analyze a tower. When a tower is destroyed, all lyoko warriors present inside the tower are expelled and all programs that are currently running are stopped and reset. A temporarily destroyed tower is [color] {grey} shown in gray [color] with [color] {blue} [color] [color] [color] running from the bottom to the top indicating that it is regenerating on the 'Virtual Map'. This regeneration effect is also displayed on the 3D model of the tower in the Superscan. A tower that is temporarily destroyed is operational again once all of its [label] {green-light} [label] health points have been fully restored.

Destruction by direct attack

If you use one or more programs in a tower, X.A.N.A will hasten to attack it using [megatank] (78 #monster_megatank) in order to destroy the virtual sanctuary and thus stop the program or programs you are using. The computer virus will also attack towers activated by Franz Hopper.

Destruction by the Multiscan The

[Multiscan] (56 #transm_transfert) allows you to activate 4 surface towers of territories at the same time and redirect their computing power to a virtual object. The towers used by the program will then be completely emptied of their vital energy and therefore destroyed.

Definitive destruction

The one and only way to permanently destroy a tower and destroy the sector on which it is located. Of course in the case of [Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko) you will be able to rebuild the sector and its towers via the construction program.

{: #tower_distribution} Distribution

The number of towers and their distribution in the sectors of a virtual world will vary depending on whether it is a complex virtual world ([Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko)) or a simple virtual world ([Replika] (74 #virtualWorld_replika)).

A complex virtual world, Lyoko [

Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko) has a total of 41 towers distributed between its [5 sectors] (73 #sector_lyoko).

• Main Territory, 5^th Territory The main
  territory of Lyoko has only one common tower within its core zone.
• Surface territory Each
  [surface territory] (73 #sector_lyoko_surface) has 10 towers, including 8 common towers, and 2 towers of passageways* (towers #1 and 10 in the territory) *.

A simple virtual world, Replika

Replikas each have 2 towers on their [main sector] (73 #sector_replika).

{: #tower_classification} Classification

The towers are all classified according to two different methods by the Superscan.

Matricule

Each tower has a 3-digit number depending on where it is located. This number is displayed in the [color] {blue} [color] [blue}] rectangle at the top right [color] of the Superscan.

• Territory
  The first number corresponds to the identifier of the type of territory where the tower is located* (between 0 or 4) *.
• Tower Number
  The second number corresponds to the number that the tower has in the sector where it is located* (between 1 and 10) *.
• Virtual world
  The third number corresponds to the ID of the virtual world on which the tower is located. [Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko) always has the ID 0.

Universal Identifier

The towers each have a universal identifier displayed to the left of the 3D model of the tower* (mention 'Universal ID') * in the [Superscan] window (54). This identifier is determined by the order in which each tower was created by Franz Hopper (between 1 and 41). The 2 rounds of Replika will always inherit numbers 42 and 43.

{: #tower_inhib} Inhibitors

The role of inhibitors is to protect access to certain specific tower programs* (DNA correction program, Earth Code correction and [log decryption] (42 #diaryf_decipher)) *. Activated by default, you can consult the status of the inhibitors in a tower by superscanning it with the Superscan * (shown to the right of the 3D model) *. Finally, you can access a tower's [Inhibitor Management Program] (54 #superscan_inhib) via the Superscan and deactivate it using the Cryptosmasher. Tower inhibitors will only reactivate when Back to the Past is performed.

{: #tower_type} Tour Type

There are a total of 3 types of tour: 2 for Lyoko and 1 for Replikas. Other than their primary function within a virtual world, the main difference between each type of tour is in the programs accessible from the second-floor interface.

{: #tower_lyoko} Lyoko Tower

• Common Tower
  The 33 common towers correspond to towers No. 2 to 8 of each [surface sector] (73 #sector_lyoko_surface) as well as to the tower of the [5^th Lyoko Territory] (73 #sector_lyoko_core). When it attacks [Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko), X.A.N.A will be able to activate only common towers to attack Earth.

• Passage tower
  The 8 passage towers correspond to towers no. 1 and 10 of the [4 surface sectors of Lyoko] (73 #sector_lyoko_surface). In addition to allowing passage from one surface sector to another, these towers, connected directly to [the heart of Lyoko] (73 #sector_core), have access to more programs than common towers from the second-floor interface.

{: #tower_replika} Replika Tower

The 2 towers of a [Replika] (74 #virtualWorld_replika) are a mixture between a common tower and a [Lyoko] way tower (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko). Thus, the Replika towers constitute a third type of tower specific to these virtual worlds.

{: #tower_program} Programs related to towers

##### {: #tower_interface} Interface programs
Several Supercomputer programs allow you to interact directly with the towers of a virtual world. Others allow you to target a tower as a destination for executing a program. Regardless of the program, the selection of a tower will always be done in the same way. The parameter <Territoire>.<Tour>allows you to target a Lyoko Tower while the tsuperscan and tskid options allow you to target a [superscanned] tower (54 #superscan_select) or the tower on which the Skidbladnir is secured, respectively.

######
Superscan The Superscan allows you to analyze a tower in order to know every detail (activation status, program being executed, identification, etc.) of the tower. It is also via the Superscan that you can access the [inhibitor management program] (54 #superscan_inhib).

Energy Transmission

The energy transmission program allows you to inject energy into the towers in order to gain or regain control of them.

Information of crossing towers

Sub-program of the [Vmap], [this window] (58 #vmap_toweraccess) shows you the connection between the various crossing towers in [Lyoko] (74 #virtualWorld_lyoko) as well as the [label] {label|pink} WayTower Access [label] codes allowing you to configure WayTower Access [label] the towers of Lyoko.

Other programs

The virtualization and cloning programs offer the possibility of targeting a tower as a destination for the execution of their respective program.

{: #tower_internal} Internal tower program

Each tower has different internal programs depending on the virtual world in which it is located. The programs of a tower are distributed between the interface on the first and second floors of the virtual sanctuary.

:: note
Theprograms marked with an asterisk correspond to those that can be used**only if you control the tower in addition to having deactivated its inhibitors. **
::

###### First Floor
Common to all existing tower types, the programs available on the first floor are all linked to the [DNA status of the Lyoko Warriors] (77 #lw_dna).

• DNA exchange*
  The DNA exchange program allows you to reinitialize a [DNA fusion] (77 #lw_dnaFusion) ** and, if the exchange is 100% complete, move the DNA problem from one character to another. This program will also allow you to return [stolen DNA sequence codes] (77 #lw_dnaSteal) to a character by donating those of another Lyoko Warrior.

• DNA exchange*
  Each tower has a program to analyze the DNA status of a lyoko warrior. The results of an analysis will be displayed in the ['DNA Management'] window (64) of the ['Link'] window (44). When a Lyoko Warrior is analyzed once, you can analyze his DNA again from any location via the adn command.<NomLyokoGuerrier>.

• DNA correction*
  The DNA correction program makes it possible to correct all types of DNA alterations that a [lyoko warrior] may suffer from (77). In the case of [mixture] (77 #lw_dnaMix) or [confusion] (77 #lw_dnaConfusion) DNA, both suffering characters must be present in the tower in order for the program to work.

• Earth Code Debugger*
  This program allows you to repair the [Aelita Earth Code] (77 #lw_earthCode) if it is corrupted.

Second Floor

The programs available from the second floor interface will vary depending on the type of tower.

• Code: Lyoko
  The mythical “Code Lyoko” allows [Aelita] (77 #lw_aelita) to deactivate a tower when it is under the control of X.A.N.A.

• Data recovery The Replika Towers as well as
  the Lyoko Crossing Towers have a program to recover data on the virtual world where the tower is located. This will allow you to bring back a Lyoko Warrior from the [border] (77 #lw_frontier). Although all lyoko warriors can recover data, [Aelita] (77 #lw_aelita) will be the fastest to do so. You can also mobilize multiple characters on this task to retrieve data even more quickly.

• Territory destruction
  You can voluntarily [destroy a sector] (73 #sector_destruction) in order to deactivate all the towers in the territory in addition to regaining energy. Although it is a last resort, destroying a sector can sometimes be the best option available to you. X.A.N.A. can also use this program after [label] {yellow} has temporarily xanatified [label] Aelita.

• Newspaper decryption*
  Franz Hopper's [journal decryption program] (42 #diaryf_decipher) can only be used by [Aelita] (77 #lw_aelita) from a Lyoko way tower. The decryption progress will be shown to you directly in the Superscan.

{: #tower_control} Use of towers

##### {: #tower_activation} Activation
By default, all the towers can be activated for the benefit of 3 different entities: [color] {red} X.A.N.A [color], [color] {green} or [color] {white} Hopper [color]. The controller of a tower is the entity that has injected the most energy into it. An activated tower can change controllers if an entity injects more energy into it than the entity currently controlling it. Finally, you can know the activation status of a tower by analyzing it with the Superscan or more simply via its color on the ** [Vmap] **.

X.A.N.A.

X.A.N.A. CAN OCCASIONALLY activate a Lyoko Common Tower to attack the real world. The only way to stop her attack is for Aelita to enter the code: 'Lyoko' before X.A.N.A causes too much damage on Earth or else she will lose the game. The computer virus can also steal control of a tower when you decrypt Franz Hopper's journal. The presence of monsters around the tower will increase the energy that X.A.N.A injects into it to rob you of control.

Jérémie

To activate a tower in your name (that is, Jérémie), you must transmit energy to it via the energy transfer program.

• Continuous activation
  Activating a tower continuously will allow you to access its inhibitors and thus deactivate them with the Cryptosmasher. Deactivating the inhibitors of a tower and controlling it will allow you to access certain programs that are locked under normal circumstances.

• Combined activation
  Activating 4 towers at the same time with the [Multiscan] (56 #transm_transfert) will allow you to combine their computing power on a single virtual object.

Franz Hopper

The only case where Franz Hopper will activate a tower will be to help you finish decrypting [his journal] (79 #franzHopper_diary) once 85% of the log has been decrypted. Once all possibility of theft is blocked by X.A.N.A. this will speed up the [log decryption program] (42 #diaryf_decipher).

{: #tower_deactivation} Deactivation

A tower is always deactivated when it is destroyed. In addition to that, a tower can be deactivated in various ways depending on the entity that controls it.

X.A.N.A.

A tower under the control of X.A.N.A. can only be deactivated by Aelita by entering the code: Lyoko from the second floor of the virtual shrine.

Jérémie

A tower under your control can be deactivated by withdrawing the energy you have injected into it via the transm.shutdown command of the energy transfer program.

Franz Hopper

A tower controlled by Franz Hopper is deactivated after a Back to the Past.

{: #tower_heal} Regenerating power Since

monsters cannot enter towers, they act as 'safe zones' for lyoko warriors. In addition to this protective role, a tower will regenerate** 100% of the [label] {green-light} [label] health points [label] of a lyoko warrior** inside.
