The first MaGMML game to use it was Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level, in the entry Asinine Factory.

Behavior

Knuckle Duster will rise up from below, grabbing a specific object and crushing it before sinking back down.

Knuckle Duster has 4 creation code values, which determine specific attributes of its pattern:

• acceptableTarget[#] - Is used to decide what object(s) Knuckle Duster will try to destroy, with the # replaced by a number. By default, the only instance of this value is "acceptableTarget[0] = objKnuckleDusterPlatform".
• findMegaman - Determines whether or not Knuckle Duster will aim for the "acceptableTarget" closest to Mega Man. Set to false by default.
• chaseMegaman - Determines whether or not Knuckle Duster will chase Mega Man after all instances of "acceptableTarget" have been destroyed; if set to false, Knuckle Duster will destroy itself in such a scenario. Set to true by default.
• restoreObjects - Determines whether or not any objects destroyed by Knuckle Duster are restored upon its defeat. Set to true by default.
