A couple of suggestions

    First off is a VERY VERY SIMPLE  one 

    A hotkey for  fullscreen 
    It would make things SO much easier as i like to use fullscreen to see the pixels more easily and having to go into the menus everytime i want to check a website or something ( i like to have the internet and stuff up while on tpt) even tho it would normally only take me one click (to switch) 


    Second suggestion

    A COMPLETELY inert or insulating element

    essentially just a fire/acid/lava/caus/ligh/explosive ( including bomb and dest ) proof INSL 
    tho still destroyed by amtr/sing
    and still doesnt conduct heat or electricity



    Thoughts?

    • I believe the fullscreen isn't a hotkey so people don't accidentally hit it and lag up their sim. Doesn't matter if it's easier for some, people who don't have perfect typing skills will somehow find a way to hit it.

    • Two pixel thick lines, one of DMND and one of life 0 HSWC. DMND will block DEST and BOMB. HSWC will block heat and electricity. If it can't be destroyed by BOMB, then it shouldn't be destroyed by SING and AMTR. End of story.

    • What about something like shift+F12 ?
    • While that does solve the matter of stuff like heat and i suppose it should be destroyed by stuff like bomb and dest BUT stuff like HSWC cannot be applied to cases such as where PSCN or NSCN would be used

    Does it really matter if it's a hotkey? It'd still take long to warm up and load the fullscreen. To click the check button is only, maybe, one-two seconds faster?


    Doesn't matter. Point is that indestructibility can be accomplished through other means. PUMP also works, on or off.

    • Almost longuer then click 2 times with the mouse
    • How about an element just destroyed by acid, and one only by pressure, and one only by radiations and one [ ... ]

    Full screen is NOT full screen. It is "make the black boarder around the play area bigger mode". Full screen would increase the number of pixels on the play area to fill the screen. It would take longer to compute each frame, but it would also allow a person to make bigger things.

    Full screen mode as it exists now is COMPLETELY USELESS. I've NEVER used it in the ENTIRE TIME it's been an available option. I always use window mode, as there is absolutely no advantage to the current implementation of full screen mode. It's just a waste of space on the options menu. (and it allows the TPT developers to falsely advertise that their product has a full screen mode, and partially be telling the truth)

    False. Learn to use full screen before commenting on it.
    It magnifies the pixels, making it easier to place on smaller laptops. Making it do any more then what it does currently is just plain pointless, laggy, and did I mention pointless?

    It is, in fact, a full-screen. No less a full screen then full screen Minecraft is a full screen.
