Projectiles?

    Dont know if this would be possible but to create projectiles maybe a new tool or something to "glue" particles together? but still allow them to move? so for example "glue" stone particles together and use air pressure to move it, like a cannonball.
    Dont know if its possible but hopefully can be done.

    I'd use broken metal for that. But it is a good idea.

    How about a "LEAD" element that could fall and be moved around and such but stays together when deposited.

    EDIT: Actually, I just read the coding tutorial on the wiki and think I might actually be able to code something like this without too much trouble.

    Edit2: Though the element should be named bullet, something like "BLLT", to avoid being construed as a periodic element.

    I've seen this, its very unreliable and inaccurate, it doesn't serve much purpose at all and it causes little pressure things and heat

    well just using any particle is what i mean. like even metal, goo,etc. This "glue" element would stick the area you have highlighted or what ever and allow it to move but stuck together.

    I reckon an options menu with "Gravity ON/OFF" would be great. Although walls would have to stay put but everything else would fall and move. Glue would be great to stick together powders and then they should be labelled "CMB" (combine) or something on mouse-over.
