    Name: Trillium
    Abbrev.: TRLL
    Color: Cyan to a Light Green (Hex- 0xFF1AC871)
    Description: Trillium. Absorbs neutrons and releases them as electricity when under pressure.

     

    Matter Traits: 

    -Temperature at spawn: 22.00 

    -Cannot Melt

    -Cannot freeze

    -Does not crush under pressure, only breaks after it reacts with NEUT and explodes.

    Characteristics:
    -Absorbs NEUT and releases electricity when under pressure.
    -Will glow a pale blue when fully charged
    -Will glow a faint red when overcharged. At this point will explode into superheated EXOT and BVBR
    -Electrons will hit TRLL and act as if they were hitting GLAS
    -Explosion Resistant (Applies to BOMB and DEST)
    -Will quickly heat up to 9725 Degrees C when exposed to an excess of Photons
    -Cannot absorb NEUT or output electricity when cooled to below -100 Degrees C
    -At below -100 Degrees C becomes brittle, in which case will be able to break under pressure into Trillium Shards (TRLS) [See bottom for Trillium Shards*]

    Uses:
    -Neutron to electricity converter
    -Energy Particle "storage" unit
    -Could be used as a kind of chargeable battery
    -Strong bunker material
    -Overheat/ Energy Particle overload indicator
    -Heats up when exposed to PHOT, making it a good component for reactors
    -Also useful in reactors because it is a stable heat source, and will not over react with its own fuel (NEUT)
    -It is a single element Pressure Sensor
    -Allows for the use of ISOZ, a relatively unused element 
    -Allows for the synthetic production of PQRT, in tern allowing for QRTZ factories


    *Trillium Shards removed :(

    Haha... I've been getting a lot of stuff like "You posted this in the wrong place!" today... I hardly every even look at the TPT Forum.

    Don't worry about that, I can fix things like that and point you to the right place to post things. And I love when people post well thought out suggestions, things like "add GOLD because it won't melt" get annoying, you actually put time into this.

    Yeah, I always try to think hard about what I post on a public site. Not well thought out = Not a good idea. :P

    Good idea.

    I asked people on irc what they thought, they did say it was similar to VIBR. That also absorbs NEUT, and has fancy graphics / a powdered version.

    I was actually confused about what was said, but Catelite did mention some random original elements.

    So, so far there is not much feedback, so I don't know. It really depends on if someone decides to make it or put it in a mod.

    Ok... I've removed Trillium shards. Also, I guess some people think that I'm trying to "Copy" the new VIBR + BVBR elements. Just to clarify, I'M NOT. I just thought that the concept was a good idea, and decided to expand on it.

    At what temp does it melt at or what pressure does it break at. Thos would be important.
