Water Surface Tension, Yes, NO? Answer. POLL

    I've already done it in a mod I made for my enjoyment, although it will have to stay private it does have surface tension and it cleverly changes water coding to go near eachother. I think it might cause black holes but I've not tested in a while and I'm compiling a new element at the time of this post.

    Just checked, rarely do black holes occur due to stacking. It's much simpler than you think. Sorry I can not get proof of this right now so you will have to take my word for it.

     

    I also added sea foaming for WATR in my private mod and it works like IRL.

    however, this is happening in GEL and SOAP(you have to make it by mixing it at extremely great speed, like GBMB).

    Have the implications for capillery action been considered?

    they have been considered at least 3 times, and each time we decided that the lag it would cause would be much more detrimental to the game than any benefits of capillary action. Water equalisation alone causes an apocalyptic lag-bomb, imagine a save full of water with capillary and equalisation enabled. It'd be like running Battlefield 4 inside a virtual machine on a Raspberry Pi.

    Please, if you cite developer decisions in the past, post them instead of possibly making assumptions. I don't remember anything like that going on in the IRC.

    Did you know that the developers decide it, not you?

    I see what you mean, this could be done, look at gel, and code a slightly modified version for water. I can't see why doing it like that would cause many coding issues.
