New Creation-PGTE Powered Gate

  • Boltz-x-Tunes     13th Mar 2012 Member 0 Permalink
    PGTE Powered Gate-Controls passage of elements.  PSCN to switch on and NSCN to switch off.
    This element would have many uses and make a lot of creations better:
    Stats of it:
    Colour :Dark ;Grey (Like coal but slightly lighter)
    Melting Point: 2000C
    Like BTRY turns to PLSM if heated very high very quickly
    Does not conduct SPRK
    Can control flow of elements through PIPE
    Can make doors for STKM in bunker 
    Can control passageway of any elements in creations such as Lasers as for it and Guns
    Can contain and release elements at will without using chunky wall
    Can be used to filter out elements in a mixture using idea from below

    Other Idea for it:Like STOR the ctype can be changed to only let a specific element through when switched on

    Any other ideas please post and tell me what you think

    Why aren't STOR and E-WALL good enough for you? Use powered clone to control weapons rather than a gate. I am very tired of people suggesting particle thick gate elements like this. Search for a thread before you make this. This annoys me alot :(

    Actually Minishooz, pixel thick walls of some types in my opinion should be made. I think there should be a pixel thick detector wall for instance. One that when it detects its ctype, it would spark metl. But if any other element was introduced, it would act like void.

    Detector + STOR or add VOID too?

    A bit bulky. Just saying. Not only that, it wouldn't work right.

    i think "pixel thick" is the need here.

    One of my main ideas with this is you would be able to make pixel thick doors and stuff
