Well, since some of us have problems with Powder Toy (CTD, crash when using a certain element) how about we get some some application that can show us what files have loaded?

For example:

**** PowderToy.log
Build August 1,2011 [v.53.3]
Loading simulation session..
Module DUST .... Version 53.3
Module WATR ......... Version 53.3
Module PLNT .... Version 53.3
Module METL ......... Version 53.3
Module LAVA ........ Version 53.3
Module GAS ............ Version 53.3
Module CLNE .......... Version 53.3
---------------------------------------------------------------

Finished initialising simulation
Finished initialising status
Finished initialising Menu's

Done!



so, for example, when you get a Crash To Desktop (CTD), you could look at the PT.log for some details.


For example:
You saved a simulation with DUST in Version 53.3

which shows in the PT.log:
Module DUST .... Version 53.3

then you open a different simulator that has DUST but, in a different version (56.6).

PT then crashes and posts the contents of the PT.log

Module DUST .... Version 53.3
Module DUST .... Version 56.6

the error report would look something like this:

Module DUST .... Version 53.3
Loaded save
Module DUST .... Version 56.6

>>> ERROR: Could not load Element module: DUST
>>> [DUST::LoadModule | .\DUST.cpp | 5442]
Incompatible with current version>>>>>>>>

----------------------Terminating----------------------

This would have some uses:

Can find out of a element is Outdated (eg using version 43.9 DUST in 53.3) which as caused some changes that version 43.9 cannot load with.

Could find out what the problem is or why the program crashes when you make a certain element.

So what do do you think of the idea?
