Plug Ball is Plug Man's signature weapon, originating from Mega Man 9. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of version 1.9.0.

Behavior

Plug Ball is an electric based crawler weapon that fires pink balls of electricity below the player that travel quickly along the top, sides and undersides of Tiles and most Level Objects. Up to three Plug Balls can be onscreen at a time and a Plug Ball will despawn when it has been onscreen for at least five seconds. Plug Balls will continue to travel in their same direction when they reach the junction of where a Tile connects to a non-tile Level Object such as Jumpthrough Platforms.

Fixed bugs

• Prior to version 1.9.4, despite having electric properties, Plug Ball did not activate Spring Man's magnetism or stun Cold Man when set as a weakness.
  • Since 1.9.4.1, Plug Ball activates Spring Man's magnetism regardless of weakness for consistency with other electric weapons.
