Witness the life and death of a P.T. star with this little fusion chamber. Stars will slightly differ every replay. Last 2-4 min. This was so fun to make. Enjoy! Credit goes to Alfa(id:1683916) and Alexzander(id:1689167) for inpiration of chamber design.

    Wow, I really love it. It may be my favorite save of them all. The star is pretty oval for some reason, but I think it's just the sillyness of TPT gravity.

    It's actually because outcomes are so diverse and strange that I can't figure out what to put in the timeline.

    @everyone - Sorry some of you are unsatisfied. I should remark that the "TimeLine" is incorrect as of now (I'll fix it sometime). As for the long wait for initiation, it does that to balance the reactions properly. Also, the red/blue orb is the new proto stage. Sorry for the confusion. Essentially, I created this with focus on later stages. Yes, you can make it faster by adding some Hygn or others, but it risks destabilizing later stages. You might miss out on some of the "special" outcomes.

    I think the update may have broken it. With or without adding a tad of protons, it takes an UNUSUAL amount of time before phase 1 begins.

    @agustrusher I tried just letting it go off, but it never works. When I turn the shaders off and add just a tad of hydrogen, it sets it off much faster and more brightly. The standard way gives a red orb. After I dope it, it gives a more realistic yellow during the "main sequence" before it turns red and die.

    I put THDR on the star and turned it into a neutron star. +1

    How do you get that black hole effect?
