Compatible with V.90??? If it is, then YAYZ!
Edit-jacob1: don't quote the first post
Hey, Jacob1, this is my first post in the forums and I'd like to congratulate you for the great mod.
I loved the idea of including TPTMP in the exe and it works fairly well for me.
First of all, I'd like to report - if it hasn't yet - a little bug I found in your mod: The powered heater doesn't work properly, in fact it doesn't work at all (at least for me). Painting it results in scattered random points and empty spaces and it doesn't do anything, and after drawing it the graphics start to bug a little.
Ah, and the idea of an updater is great too.
May I suggest some elements too? (I know you must be busy with your life, but if you have the time to check this out, I would be grateful).
Suggested elements/reactions (categorized):
MAGNESIUM (MGNS) - burns slowly and emmits a white bright flame
ALCOHOL (ALCL) - light liquid, burns slowly
WHISKEY (WSKY) - light dark-yellow liquid, burns slowly
BLOOD (BLOD) - heavy red liquid, becomes DRIED BLOOD when heated or exposed to high pressures
MILK (MILK) - heavy white liquid, mix it with sugar to make CREAM (CREM)
CREAM (CREM) - very viscous yellowish liquid, made mixing MILK and SUGAR
SUGAR (SUGR) - white powder, hardly flammable, becomes liquid when exposed to heat
LIQUID SUGAR (LSGR) - white viscous liquid, becomes solid when cools down to ambient temperature
GRANITE (GRNT) - breakable solid, breaks under high pressure
MAGNETITE (MGTT) - heavy grey-brown powder, moves toward nearby metals
ADAMANTIUM (ADMT) - conductive, metal, as resistent as DMND
MEAT (MEAT) - red solid, becomes darker when exposed to heat, becomes dust when exposed to extreme heat
CONVEYOR BELT (CVBT) - solid, moves particles above it in the direction of the line drawn
STAIR (STAR) - solid, lets STKM, FIGH and STK2 pass through it and go up and down
CLAYMORE (CLMR) - land mine, like bomb, but only explodes when STKM, STK2 and FIGH walk over it
PERMAFROST (PFST) - eternal ice, obtained from ICE when exposed to temperatures below -80°C.
AIR COMPRESSOR (ACMP) - generates positive pressure when powered
AIR DECOMPRESSOR (ADCP) - generates negative pressure when powered
AIR CONTIDIONER (ACDT) - heats when powered with PSCN, chills when powered with NSCN
PHOTOELECTRIC CELL (PECL) - generates electricity when touched by PHOT.
CLOUD (CLOD) - like steam, but only releases water when cooled below 22°C with low pressure
ZOMBIE (ZMBI) - like FIGH, but walks slowly, hard to kill, flammable and dumb
GUNSHOT (GNST) - shoots particle when sparked (like ARAY, but only one particle at once, tmp value determines the fire rate)
Well, those are my suggestions.
I made a post suggesting a mod fusing all existing elements since I'd love to have HUNDREDS of elements to play with, but having elements like those I wrote up there would be great, too!
Keep up the good work, man! You rock!
Uh, well, sorry for annoying you with those issues.
Just another thing:
Does there is a way to add new elements without having to compile the code - (via lua script or something) - and without editing existing ones?
