At night, he is perceived by pigs as a campfire, glowing from lightning strikes. When struck by lightning, nearby resources and buildings catch fire.
Upon death, he loses all upgrades; half of the gears used are dropped from his corpse. He can survive an entire night without power in the rain, as he will glow from sparks.
In the video about the “Strange New Abilities” update, WX-78 can be seen smiling slightly, which may indicate that he is not fully robotic (also evidenced by the lightning striking his body).
Judging by his remarks, the only creatures he doesn’t despise are birds.
