    lubricant. puts out fire and under pressure turns to gas. special propeties?clings to solid. useful?yes. you firstly could make a pressurized can of it, resulting a spray effect when released. can be sprayed on to solids. put it on say wood, and it will stop the wood from burning. it will run along according to gravity. could revolutionise all future powder toy creations involving fire. also stops low pressure. I know new people arent supposed to suggest elements, but i have been experimenting and it would be useful

    if you can code it yourself and show it's usefulness then why not :p

    Water puts out fire. Clingig to solid? A nice feuture, but overall pointless. I don't get how the spay effect would work. That would be too much trouble to code.

    Also this should also be in feedback.
    Also also there are no new element suggestions
    Also also also use the search bar.

    this would probably be taken the wrong way by noobs, if you know what I mean.

    I also dont see how it lubercates anything, It seems more of a fire retardant than anything.

    we don't need lubricans since there are no moving solids.......wait,WHAT?!

    Lubricants in TpT would only be useful against the effects of acid in my mind. Unless some else has other uses in mind. I will try to describe my idea below.

    First, I have a machine that has a grid in it. This grid allows Liquids and Blocks Solids. This machine is also made of Metal. Now if I was to flush something like Acid through it, no doubt it would be destroyed. So the only way I can clean the grid is by pressure or the erase tool.

    So in my opinion (LuB) Lubricants are just adding another dynamic to TpT which I think is our overall goal.

    Here would be my dream for this idea. Code every solid in TpT to retain so much Lubricant. This would make the lubricant a capacitive element. "To picture this in your mind imagine any solid object being a Sponge and the (LuB) being water." The more (LuB) your solid has the more it resists acid. Also the more acid your solid comes into contact with the less (LuB) it has. Until the point your soild starts to get eaten away.

    Now I have no coding experience myself and will not try. I'm busy with other things at the moment. But I do encourage someone reading this post to try my idea and the guy's above. There is definitely something here worth exploring, I just guess it comes down to weather the time is right or not.

    i like the fire retardent property, but maybe it should be called something other than lubricant.
