Editing Cave unit

{{game icons|p2=y}}

[[Cave]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' are made out of [[Randomness|random]]ly placed '''units'''. There are units that represent dead ends, corridors, crossings, and rooms. Every cave's sublevel has a list of units that can be used by the game to create it; the latter is then responsible to randomly align the units in order to create a level with no unconnected exits.

There are three types of units, as defined by the "room type" property, declared in the sublevel unit definition text files:
*Dead ends/alcoves: These close off pathways and exits of rooms. Internally, these are called "caps", and their "room type" is 0.
*Corridors: pathways and corridors that normally don't have any special features; their walls decide the path or paths the player can take. Their "room type" is 2.
*Rooms: decorated and often large rooms, featuring walls and objects organized in a certain fashion. Their "room type" is 1.

In [[2-Player Battle]], for all caves excluding the [[Dim Labyrinth]], there is a static list of units to use, as well as their position and rotation. Instead of the game generating a cave using the available units, it only has to pick one of the available static layouts.

==Regular units==
The following is a list of all existing units in ''Pikmin 2'', used and [[Unused content in Pikmin 2|unused]], and sorted by theme. The themes are named based on the common word in the units' names.

===Concrete===
Units in the concrete theme have their names end with "conc", which is likely short for {{j|コンクリート|konkurīto|concrete|f=tp}}; this word comes from the concrete walls that these units have.
