Gas density's and Neutrons

    So can this be added in the next private alpha version, aka under development before beta? I think this might need to be discussed and thought out first.

    Done and not needed. Gas density exists, but they're generally put as the same, i mean... unless sulphur hexafluoride is made, then we really don't need density.

    Sulfur hexafluoride is completely irrelevant pilojo. And obviously this has not been implicated yet because I'm posting this thread.

    The idea of this thread is to emphasize the point that all gases have different density's, therefore some may reflect neutrons better than others. I don't have a computer ATM so I can't tell if all of the gases still reflect neutrons all equally the same, but I'm pretty sure they all do. If each gas was labeled with its own density they would have different reactions with passing through neutrons.

     Yes, but the densities and neutron reflections don't work in a sense of reflection. Neutrons either reflect, come to a dead end and die, or pass by the element unless otherwise defined by the code. Gases DO have density, but they're mainly set the same because it wouldn't matter, they'd still mix due to the engine and how it handles particles.
