I don't know if it's wanted or currently not possible or supported by the engine but shouldn't a ton of water generate some pressure at the bottom due to it's weight? I'm not that good at physics but I learned it that the deeper you go in water the bigger gets the pressure generated by it's own weight. So if I dump a few thousand tons of water on some plutonium it should theoretically start generating neutrons cause it should be under some big pressure, right?
It does already, lots of water creates slight pressure in the space where its falling into, the same goes for other elements, it's a fundemental piece of powder toy.
It does not. Simply fill a vertical recipient with water. Then, take the same recipient and fill it with uranium. Finally, fill the same recipient with sand. Notice the pressure at the bottom of the recipient. 1/ The pressure take a very long time to equalize. It should be much faster 2/ The pressure at the bottom of the recipients are : - Sand: -0.85 (??? wtf) - Uranium: 0 (??? wtf) - Water: 0 (???)
Elements seems to have no real density.
EDIT: One funny consequence. I just open the bottom of the recipient with sand. Instead of flowing out, the sand in moving up !
I would like to have the skill and the time for coding you guys have. Maybe one day... I would like first to understand so many things about Powder Toy that I cannot find anywhere...without sounding a noob or being ignore.
@Mackrock I honestly don't think people will start flaming or ignore you if you ask a question. As long as it's not on the Wiki, people will generally be very helpful if you ask a sensible 'how to?'etc question.
