    Please I am really interested in contributing to the tpt community but I still can't figure out why my transitions for my new elements won't work. I am entering them into the transition table just like any other element. If I could somehow show you my code would that help? I am really want to get this problem solved

    Use http://pastebin.com/ and copy-paste your whole powder.h file into it, then save it and post the link of the paste here.
    Then we can help you. :)

    You didn't define the basic properties or state changes of all your elements

    i know that, I couldnt get my first new ones to work, so I didnt bother with the more recent new ones yet. I wanted to figure out why I could never get it working with my new elements in teh first place

    Let me repeat, you must define the basic properties of all the elements

    One problem I noticed is that when you updated ptypes, you added your elements to the middle where it said /*free.*/ You shouldn't do that, add them to the end instead. Also, you need to add transitions to sulfur even if it has none to get it to compile.

    I originally put them at the end, however the did not work when I did so, they would either only appear when I pressed the mouse button than suddenly disappear or just not draw at all. Addtionally when I put certain elements below them, they acted strangely as well. See my previous post about adding new elements causing others to act incorrectly I posted it a few days ago in the develpoment assistance forum

    Maybe you should just redownload powder.h(right click, save target as), and copy those things you changed and put them at the end of the tables. You probably accidentally moved something or deleted a line somewhere. Just don't change anything in the middle of the tables
