    Quark (Up/Down)

     

    Color: 0xFF5319D1 (up)

    Color: 0xFF099E62 (down)

     

    Classification: Radioative 

    Id: QARK

     

    Elemental Properties:

    1. Spawns after nuclear fission or fusion. Any high speed particle collision yield quarks (up) and (down) as a byproduct (e.g. Lighting striking CO2 yields, quarks [both types], along with neutrons and electrons and protons).
    2. The particle behaves in a hybrid manner, a mix between singularity and electrons. Moves quicker and less reliably than electrons, slower and more controlled than singularities.
    3. The quarks transform into protons when both a (up) and (down) quark interact.
    4. Quarks will transform into the type any element it comes into contact with. This created element will have a half-life of (INSERT TIME HERE), even if the original element doesn’t decompose.
    5. The initial speed of quarks depends on the intensity of the reaction that spawned them.
    6. Quarks are affected by Newtonian gravity.

    Reactions:

    • GAS + ENERGY = PROTON + NEUTRON + ELECTRON + QUARKS
    • ELEMENT + NUCLEAR REACTION = NEUTRONS + QUARKS
    • UP QUARK + DOWN QUARK = PROTON
    • QUARK (both types) + ELEMENT = ELEMENT(with halflife)

    Uses: 

    • Adds a whole new level of depth to the nuclear reactions that occur during the game. 
    • Dynamic element creation could be used of all sorts of reactions and explosives.
    • Very diverse element, whos uses only increase with more gameplay.

    Sure but it's better if up and down quarks are combined into one quark with diffrent tmp values. Also the element decompistion thing would be hard to code, and there should be more like strange, charm, left, right. 

    Also you might want better reasons other than:

    • Adds cool nuclear reactions!
    • Adds cool element creation and [insert unknown reasons here]
    • It's a cool element whos uses increase with gameplay but I don't know what they are

    "Sure but it's better if up and down quarks are combined into one quark with diffrent tmp values."

    Yes, I thought about this as an alternitive. I just considered that two individual particles would be spawn upon a reaction, each with its little quirk, adding depth to fission and fusion reactions.

    "Also the element decompistion thing would be hard to code, and there should be more like strange, charm, left, right." 

    I can't argue here. I myself have very limited knowledge in coding, and therfore cannot discern how difficult the hal-flife would be to code. All I know is that the resulting particle would be beautifully reactive, and well worth the effort to code. 

    I decided in not going as complex as charm and strage quarks, and as simple as one. Two seems ideal to me.

    Just beause I couldn't think of every possible use for the new elements, dosn't mean there isn't any. I just don't have the in depth knowledge of particle physics in TPT to explain the uses upfront. The new properties are unique in my opinion, and would lead to interestion gameplay in TPT. 

     

     

     

     

    Thanks for the reply :)

    Ahhh. Still it's always better to list existing reactions so people know what it can do. Also those reactions although unique don't seem very useful, which is bad as people want useful elements (well the moderators do)

    protons and neutrons are made of quarks. proton=2 up quarks +1 down

    neutron=1up + 2 down

    down quark=-1

    up quark=+2

    Yes. I kinda wanted to strike a balance between realisim and fun. Two seemd sufficient.

    Are you suggesting that quarks + quarks will make PROT and NEUT and PROT and NEUT and ELEC will make HYGN?

     

    btw, there is no such thing as left and right quarks :P

    Up Charm Top

    Down Strange Bottom

    • Up Quark + Down Quark -->  Protons
    • You don't need neutrons in order undergo this reaction.

     

     

    • Proton + Neutron + Electrons + [presure> 100] ---> Hydrogen

    That is actually a cool idea, which if implemaented properly would be amazing. But this might break old saves so it might not be favourable...

    I didn't actually suggest this... I just suggested quark + quark interactions. 

    Lagnadium41 is the one who wanted to clairify.... 

    Lagnadium41:

    "Are you suggesting that quarks + quarks will make PROT and NEUT and PROT and NEUT and ELEC will make HYGN?"

     

    Plus I also stated in my reply that it could break saves.

    The quark interactions I posted will not break any current saves.
