Realistic Plants

    Plants in toy powder dont really behave as if they are plants, so i ould like to suggest some improvements.

     

    -When you burn plants they should relese all of the waater they have aborbed (well at least most of the water they have absorbed).

     

    -Plants which have become a brownish color due to heat should turn back into a green color when given water.

     

    -It would be cool and fascinating if plants could reproduce. maybe you could add a seed element.

     

    -different types of plants. Plants which grow better underwater or can withstand lots of heat or some other sorts of alien type plants.

     

    -plants should NOT burn on contact with photons. (unless there are extreme amounts of photons)

     

    -plants should grow in distilled water. (although in lacks nutrients plants can still grow in it, just not as well)

     

    -when you put a plant in water it shouldn't drink all of the water instantly, instead it should slowly absorb the water and grow upwards.

     

    -if a plant drinks too much water instantly it should start to turn brown and then change into dust

     

    I know you probally can't include all these things to the plants in powdertoy because your busy creating things like explosive, but it would be cool seeing powdertoy plants behaving with their enviroments realisticly.

    Unfortunately, in order to do all of these things mentioned to plant, it would break a crapload of saves. Which means that the things mentioned will not be implemented into the official version of TPT. If you want to see these things implemented, you should direct these things toward a modder and download their mod if they implement these things into their mod. I would like to see some of the things you mentioned as well, but I personally don't think it will happen.

    I agree with some of these, mainly 1, 2, and 7. I hate it when I put a pixel of PLNT in WATR in it just grows instantly.

    TPT is not a Plant Simulation Game....we don't need to make current elements realistic just so people will like playing TPT.

    maybe not differient elements, just add on tp plant, you know, improve it.

     

    i like the last idea. plant would be really cool if they could drown! exept it would break the all famous "steam tree" save D:

    plants could have certain amount of life b4 turning into wood, but when touching water turns back into plant.

    You guys are right that it would break saves, but not all of these points will end up breaking saves. Besides plants would be alot more fun to interact with. (they just wont be growing matter which catches on fire)

    I don't see anyone doing that ... and I don't like when people use bad excuses like "nothing realistic" either.

    I would say probably no to the seed things or other kinds of plants thing, I don't think we really need it. Plants do burn from photons, if they don't, then the photons were cooled down or something.

    I don't know why it can't grow in distilled water already ...

    A few look ok, like the one with turning back to not burnt. I'm not sure about all of them though.
