Plasma is a damaging [[gas]] that can seep through walls and other occluding objects, often destroying them in the process.
Mechanically, it is very similar to {{favilink|corrosive gas}}, except that:
* Plasma does 20 times more damage to creatures and robots.{{Code Reference|class=GasPlasma|name=GasPlasma}}
* Plasma can leave creatures it comes in contact with [[coated in plasma]], which causes an additional debuff.{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Effects|class=CoatedInPlasma|name=CoatedInPlasma}}
== Sources ==
Common sources of {{name}}, with their level and density, include:{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Parts|class=Gas}}

== Damage ==
The damage done by {{name}} depends on the target:{{Code Reference|class=GasDamaging|name=GasDamaging}}
* {{name|caps}} deals damage to creatures and robots.
* {{name|caps}} deals significantly increased damage to:
** Walls, doors, furniture, chests, statues, and similar objects.
** {{favilink|brooding jadepuff|brooding puffs}}.
* {{name|caps}} deals '''''no''''' damage to anything with the <code>Item</code> tag. This includes all weapons, armor, equipment, scrap, cybernetics, energy cells, garbage, food, trade goods, corpses, books, water containers, urns and vases, quest items, and most other similar items a character might carry around in their inventory. Furniture items, such as {{Favilink|chest|plural}} or {{Favilink|weapon rack|plural}} are affected, but any items within will drop to the ground undamaged.
Note that, even though plasma does not ''directly'' damage items, it does apply the [[coated in plasma]] effect to them. This can make those items more susceptible to other forms of damage, such as catching on fire.
The following damage formulas are used to calculate {{name}} damage:<ref name="GasDamaging" />
{| class="wikitable"
| style="border-top:1px solid transparent;border-left:1px solid transparent" |
! Formula
! Notes
|-
! Creatures and Robots
| {{simple formula | ( Density * GasLevel ) / 10 }}
| (rounded up)
|-
! Walls and Similar Objects
| {{simple formula | ( 0.75 * GasLevel + 0.25 ) * Density }}
| (rounded up)
|}
In practice, gas damage is highly variable due to a significant amount of randomization involved in gas behavior.
Gas is constantly moving between cells, dissipating over time, merging with other gas, and being affected by random calculations in the game engine. Its density, which is the main predictor of damage, is always changing.
The density of {{name}} can get much higher than 100 with the [[Plasma Gas Generation]] mutation, which is the signature mutation of a {{favilink|plasma jelly}}. With that mutation, a creature releases 100 density units of gas into the cells around them ''each turn'', and can continuously release gas for many turns depending on mutation level. This can result in very high density gas if the gas is released into a small area.
The following table indicates how much damage {{name}} of a certain level will do per round, depending on gas level and density. The table includes only Gas Levels 1 and 10, since other gas levels are not commonly found in game.

''Looking for a more extensive damage breakdown? You can refer to the [[Corrosive_gas#Damage|corrosive gas damage table]] - the numbers are the same except that you'll need to multiply the "creatures/robots" damage shown on the corrosive gas page times 20 to get the plasma damage for the same level and density.''
