    This new element would be called LED.

    Description: Light Emitting Diode. PSCN powers, NSCN turnes off. Emits a stream of photons.

    What it does: Emits stream of photons when powered with PSCN. Turnes off when powered with NSCN. Changing its color with CTYPE (i think) changes color of photons emitted. 

    Uses: It is easier to make photon lasers. Lasers can be made smaller. Just there for convience.

    Light Spread:

     In a straight line. Like this:

    what you described is basically this:

    The color of the laser was set by the filt, and the color of the filt is determined by its ctype. The laser is already pretty small, no need to add another element just for this.

    OK, but it would be easier for lighting.

    In Powder Toy you explore. What works, what doesn't. That's the whole fun.

    Why didn't they add chips, processors, drones, titans (M:tG joke)?

    Because it is a lot more fun if you make them yourselves!

    Hey quantech, the save doesn't work. It must be deleted.

     It does work. Spark the PSCN to turn it on and NSCN to turn it off.

    I didn't check QuanTechs save, but I assume it is just one pixel of PCLN and one of FILT. This element just isn't needed if you can already do it in two pixels

    Open TPT, and then press ctrl+i to install TPT. Then, just click "Open" on the save preview on the forums and it will open directly to the save.

    Alternatively, do a search for id:2142607 . You can get the save ID from the URL

    That save must be hacked. It is named save doesn't exist, by fourohfour, and has 404 comments with a picture of a dog.
