    I feel as though this might actually be an interesting reaction at times, but a new element should not be created for that sole purpose. Perhaps a new mode that allows for easier destruction of such elements? Who knows. Perhaps you can request that in someones private mod. Good luck, and I do somehow now come to the realization this might actually not be half bad.

     That was hilarious.

    This would not break saves. DMND could be renamed to INSD or whatever, and a new element introduced, exactly as we did with black hole when Newtonian gravity was added.

    Do not worry about the limited number of element slots, there are still quite a lot left and the limit can be raised.

    However, I feel that yet another element that burns is a bit dull.

    Diamond could NOT be renamed
    think of hundreds of lua scripts relying on console_parse_type

    Meh, good point. But they would be easy to fix, and it still wouldn't quite be the scale of devastation implied by some people in this thread.

    But what about all the saves where people call diamond diamond?

    Does it matter?

     We don't really need another almost-indestructable element, do we?

    No, we don't. End of discussion please.
