Any ideas as to how the test could be improved? (Although this would require retesting of all previously tested nukes, so I am skeptical of whether I will proceed with such a major change.)
From what I remember the first bomb just heats with protons, which do not work well on your heat test due to the DMND. Spreading heat from point X to point Y is nice, but from what I know it only impacts destruction in small amounts after the bomb is hot enough to easily melt anything (which is also made easier by protons).
The heat test is designed to measure how well the bomb spreads heat from point X to point Y. Maybe it's just really bad.
Interesting. That makes sense, as the first bomb was mostly a Zain-azure experiment. Alitz MK 5 was quite optimized. Thanks for testing them. I would note, though, that the heat test doesn't really measure destructive power well (heat only matters so much); what this scale is designed to do.
so, the first bomb is great, with 41.6 points, it really struggled with the heat test because it constantly cools and then reheats itself, but it's insanely fast. great bomb! the second bomb was a lot better, with a score of 49.6 It was faster than your first bomb, and did better in the dest test, which the first bomb struggled with. It creates a lot of surface (warp) to spread heat, so it's overall an awesome bomb.
I wonder about my bombs... You might want to try id:2975861 or id:2946672. I could make a bomb over 50, but I don't play TPT anymore right now.
how many points is this id:3036430 ?
