    An imaginary gas from the 18th century. A fire retardant, poison, and gassious rust preventer.

     

    phlogiston

     

    Name:PLGN

    Type: Gas

    Color: FFFFFF (white gas = cool)

    Properties: Stops all reactions on contact (fire, explosions, rust), near each pixal. (Should it reverse rust?) Proliferates on contact with fire (turns fire into itself). Can be made into smoke by combining with CO2. Could also be produced along with CO2 from smoke. (How?) Kills life forms (turns plant to wood, kills basic LIFE, harms stickmen, kills yeast) EDIT: If a property (tmp or tmp2) is changed on a pixal the surrounding pixals will sense it and copy it. (it won't automatically reset though, currently will glitch if you change it more than once, so please use console)

     

    Uses: (FWOOOSH!) "Oh-no, my save is on fire! Whatever shall I do?!" (ssssssss-...fizzle) "Much better!"

             "Oh-no, those pesky life forms are growing out of control! Whatever shall I do?!" (sssssss-) "All gone!"

             "Oh-no, my gold is making spark go everywhere! How else can I stop the rust?!" (ctrl =) (ssssss-) "All fixed!"

             "Oh-no, how do I defuse this bomb?!" (ssssss-) "Harmless now!"

             EDIT:(note: I have not yet figured out how to prevent explosions)

     

    EDIT: Also called terra pinguis, a type of the classical earth element. Imparts oily, sulphurous, or combustable properties. So, it is a toxic, stinky, gassious dirt. 

    "Oh-no, a terra pinguis grenade! That's just dirty!" (gas mask) :P

    I like it; it sounds fun to use on life, especially when it suddenly grows out of control.

    The most entertaining suggestion since jetpacks.
    I approve. :D

    Also...
    Since all it does is simple particle interactions, I might pick up and go with it.
    Tomorrow though.

    Edit: Also the phlogiston theory is the coolest thing I've read so far. Makes me want to have lived in the era.
