Element Suggestion: ALUM

    ALUM (Aluminium) 

     

    Melting point: 933.47 K (real value)

     

    Breaking Pressure: 125 to 245

     

    Heat conduction value: 237 (again real value) - The highest conduction in tpt is 255

     

    Colour: #AAAAAA

     

    Description: ALUM would spawn with a tmp value of 1, and if heated above 503 K, it would gain 1 tmp every 20 frames. For every tmp gained ALUM's break point would increase by 10 (with a max of 12 temp gains).

     

    Uses: It would allow us to have an element with a variable breaking point, mechanisms could be deigned to break at specific pressures. Aluminium would be a heat treatable metal. Users would be able to feel like they are customising elements and making something new.

     Hasnt ALUM been suggested TONS of times?

    I could have put this description to any element, but most metals arent strong enough for what i had intended. Also the common materials are already taken. I could have used steel, but why suggest steel when we have METL.

     I did.

     Can we make it ambient heat proof too? And does it break into brmt or brel?

     To make it ambient heat proof we would have to make it block pressure as well. Because it is breakable I dont think this will happen.

     

    In the meantime use TTAN.

     

    I think it should turn to a powdered version when it breaks, with the same melting point but default breaking pressure. Otherwise it would get stronger every time its remade.
