    Hello, once again i was messing around with PT and noticed that Glass isnt dissolved by acid but broken glass is, is that a intendended feature? or just a bug or something that hasnt been noticed?

    I think this is meant to happen, and is based on something, because powder games acid couldn't dissolve glass, either. I searched for this and found out that hydrochloric acid seems to be one of the few gasses that can dissolve glass, so generally glass isn't dissolved by acids. At least very much.

    Glasses are known to be acid-resistant, that's why they use it in test tubes.

    but the question is, why isnt broken glass acid resistant? i know that glass is acid resistant, i aint no fool :)

    Probably because you can't use glass powder to contain acid very well? Not all of Powder Toy's mechanics are based on real-life shenanigans.
