    It's not meant to be realistic, as in, it's not meant to simulate real life. Just because something exists in the real world doesn't justify it being added to tpt. It's a particle simulator, not a physics simulator and not a real life simulator. Water freezes because that can be usefull to the program. Having liquid dmnd doesn't help anything. Dmnd is supposed to be a standalone indestructable element. Having liquid dmnd defeats the purpose of dmnd.

    In the words of ThunderSt:


    1st, this isn't realism toy. This is ment to be fun, not to be realist. For realism go play a sandbox called 'real life'

    Just to point out that you told a complete lie to get your point accross. Neptune is in the far negatives in temperature. It is made of mainly water, frozen.

    I don't think he told a lie so much, he was just either misinformed or misunderstood what was being said to him.

    your post proves that you little about astronomy and reading all the posts.

     

    at the center of neptune and other gas plants, pressures are high enough to compress elements into liquids and solids... thats why the center of earth is solid iron even though tempatures are of the surface of the sun... intense pressure. (thats also why when you create a lot of pressure in TPT, gas compresses to oil and water vapor compresses into water)
    This was stated by someone else eariler.

     

    However, that doesn't mean the said thing being compressed at the center of neptune (or any planet in the solar system) is diamond. its not diamond at all.

    You need extreme heat and pressure to create diamond. Although you have the pressure, neptune lacks the heat. There is scientific debate as to if Neptune has a radioactive core, which if true could indeed produce diamond as well as many other elements.

     

    The center of the earth is predicted to actually be hotter than the surface of the sun, super heating or super cooling requires a hell of a lot less energy than fusion.

     

    As to reading all the posts, I read a couple of pages but was not going to read all 5 to simply write that.

     Yeah true, I got annoyed at another thread about make tpt more realistic now! Looking back I could of said that differantly

    Thats kinda what I just said :P

    ok, Thats resonable

     Sorry misread your comment, I thought it was all aimed at me...I overlooked the empty line :P. So yeah I just kinda reiterated what you just said.

    @Waffle3z:

    If you want molten diamond, make it yourself. Use one of those "tpt.el" functions in the lua console. Use these terms.

    Oh, so you quoted my phrase here, It had been quoted 3 times then.

     

    @everyone

     

    Let this die, it has nothing to offer.

     one more thing

     

    @plypencil (View Post)

    it was kinda aimed at you, what I basicly said was that pressure can turn things into liquids regardless of heat

Locked by jacob1: diamond is nonreactive
