    Lets get back on topic.
    I have updated the element properties.

    But the implementation part is not fully complete. Can someone tell me how can I set the heatconduct to 0 inside the updates?

    can you clarify what you mean by "It will conduct normally, and if powered with PSCN, it will set it's heat to the Wifi/portal if there is one in a 1 pixel radius."? it seems a bit clunky to me. I personally think that any property-setting elements should work like ARAY or CRAY, cloning the properties of the element (tmp, ctype, etc.) directly in front of it to an element of THE SAME TYPE in front. Bad diagram:

    SRAY= 8 INSL 1= I  INSL 2= Y  PSCN= P SPRK= B         BRAY (tmp=3) = O

     

    P P P P P B B B B 8 O O O I O O O O Y

     

    In the above diagram, the properties of INSL 1 (I)would be copied to INSL 2 (Y).
    Note that BRAY with tmp of 3 is immune to SRAY. That would avoid all of the (very valid) problems raised by jacksonmj, while making PRAY easy(ish) to use.

    No, I don't intend it to be a ray. You probably have no idea how complicated is the code of CRAY. I want this element to be a solid that, if powered with PSCN, and if there is Wifi,portals,GPMP or PUMP near it, set's it's temperature to the detected element.
