    feedback for tpt++,

    *change of graphics(oil,gas,glow of conducting walls) is changed(will be fixed in upcoming versions)

    see thread in help\are these uncompleted grapchics.

    now fixed in version 83.5!

    *pressure leak glitch (refer to thread (help\please fix this)|only this bug cannot be fixed :(

    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    suggestions for tpt or tpt++

    1)replace mod for walls
    2)flood fill for decorations

    3)pressure or heat sensiting conductors(they will conduct if pressure or heat set by heat or cool tools comes close to it) will work like ntct or ptct but the temp will be set by us 

    4)prti and prto should work like void (will allow ony its ctype elements)

     5)my all stamps got deleted suddenly!

    1 how do you mean a replace mod for walls?

     

    2. Flood fill for decoration's is not needed cause you don't need blocks of purple and if you do you can paint them normally.

     

    3 maybe an adjustment to ntct and ptct so we don't need a new element for it, such an adjustment shouldn't be that hard to make.

     

    4 can be achieved through other means and was suggested before already.

    The pressure leak glitch actually can be fixed, while on irc jacksonmj figured out what the problem was after everyone else tried to figure out what was happening in your save / if it even was a glitch. Calelite said the glitch had some cool uses and wanted to keep it, and then made a save showing what you can do with the glitch. No one has tried to fix it yet.

    1. replace mode for elements doesn't even exist yet, so maybe when it's added it will happen for walls too.
    2. that is something I want also. I could make it flood fill a certain element (easier) or flood fill inbetween colors.
    3. i'm not sure if that is needed with ntct and ptct. INVS could probably be used with pressure somehow too.
    4. portals ctype is already used to generate it's graphical effects, and above.

     1)for pressure leak i have managed a anotherway formeanwhile.but want it to be fixed.i have some suggestions for fixing it like limit the speed of velocity or pressure upto that limit only after which they start crossing or passind walls.OR just tell everyone to remove all pressure related things because the saves will be going to crash after the fix

    2)for replace mod,

    are you sure you are a developer?

    open tpt and only tpt then enble hud(press H) and press the (";")key what comes in your top left corner?isnt it replace mod?

    "replace mode for elements doesn't even exist yet" - jacob1 is talking about TPT++.

    I guess I didn't read it enough, I thought the whole post was about tpt++. That is the only thing that's being worked on anyway at the moment. And just because you thought I didn't know about a hard to use feature, you are accusing me of not being a developer?

    Also, the other glitch is caused by velocity being able to go through walls without a check to see if there's a wall inbetween first, and so your half-fix would need it to be completely fixed before we could know if there was a wall there. Are you also suggesting that instead of fixing it, we should just remove pressure from the game because of this glitch? That's really extreme, even if you were only talking about removing PUMP. Features will never be removed because of a minor, almost impossible to reproduce bug that is so hard to see that even when your save was right in front of everyone, no one even knew it was there or what it was.

    Soory if you fell bad of what i sad.

    and i am not suggesting to remove pump i was just trying to say if you could remove things which will affect the

    previously saved stamps or saves when the glitch will be fixed and then we can make them again or you can limit velocity's speed if that was the problem.once again sorry!

    and can you tell approximately how much of stress simulation and realistic mode is left or just the version number in which we will have both of them?

    and please fix the glitch as soon as possible!

    Stress simulation isn't being worked on anymore. Simon said his was very flawed with hanging structures, and that jacksonmj had a better version. I actually just asked him that today. So, someone will have to ask them for the code I guess, but i'm busy with other stuff. If not, it will never be released.

    Realistic mode is done, but a few more things could be added. It was enabled in tpt++ for a while, but then some glitches were found with it. One of them involved H2 and O2 not burning, I also noticed fusion acted weird. savask is the one that made it, maybe he might be able to fix some stuff. I know how to fix the H2 and O2 stuff, and could probably fix fusion. I also know how to change it into an option and not a define, maybe that will have to happen first.

    I might try to fix the pressure leak glitch sometime, unless Catelite doesn't want me too. She has a save showing off something she made with it somewhere.

    I noticed that the pressure leak glitch is happening after version 80,you may change its code to previous one.

    and why tpt++ in a bit slower and becomes more slower in some cases like making elements for ex snow will decrease its fps and then it agian becomes normal.why?

    i have tpt with fps of 64(max)|after tpt.setfpscap(100)

    and tpt++ with fps of 54(max).

    and what is multithreading system simon talking about will there an big increase in fps?

    i am not sure i heard somewhere that it's going to be implemented.

    why my all the stamps(saves)got deleted ? is there any way to get them back i have the stamps folder!
