From Dust to Diamond!

    AN UPDATED VERSION OF THIS, AND MUCH MORE CAN BE FOUND HERE ~> Epic Exotic Chemistry V4.5

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     

      I have composed a very simple way to complete the transition from yeast to diamond using pressure. dust turns to carbon at 40 pressure, and carbon, which is conductive, grows diamond crystals at 100 pressure. The only element lost is BREL, oh well.

      Also any input on how to script in the requirement for both heat and pressure to be present for the transition to fully occur would be thanked. I really want to try to create more extensive interactions between all elements, or go along with a neturon based, periodical type elemental decay. I think that is one thing TPT be lackin. In any case, here ya go everybody.

    you know the drill,  wordpad~> save as~> autorun.lua,  whats below.  ;) 

    --------------------------------------------------------v-----------------------------------------------

    tpt.el.brel.menusection = 10
    tpt.el.brel.name = 'CRBN'
    tpt.el.brel.description= "pure carbon powder, good conducter."
    tpt.el.brel.color = 0xA1AAA1
    tpt.el.brel.weight = 85.5
    tpt.el.brel.gravity = 1.5
    tpt.el.brel.diffusion = 0.5
    tpt.el.brel.color = 0xB7B7A9

    local elTemporaryValue = tpt.eltransition.dust.presHighValue
    local elTemporaryType = tpt.eltransition.dust.presHighType
    tpt.eltransition.dust.presHighValue = 40
    tpt.eltransition.dust.presHighType = tpt.element("CRBN")

    local elTemporaryValue = tpt.eltransition.brel.presHighValue
    local elTemporaryType = tpt.eltransition.brel.presHighType
    tpt.eltransition.brel.presHighValue = 100
    tpt.eltransition.brel.presHighType = tpt.element("dmnd")

    Very cool! This should go into the official someday.

       Thank you much, now I'm workin on a spider web of interactions between most elements, and some fun new ones to complete cycles. Hopefully coming soon, if Im accurate enuff with the coding of course. Any advice or Ideas are most welcome :)  

       I must note, this script was inspired by timpfeifer's really helpfull response to Xmirx's post regarding element transitions. Keep the ideas flowing everybody!

    It's not working for me? Using script manager or dofile I get "dusttodiamond.lua:1: unexpected symbol near '(this symbol cannot be typed, looks like a large arrow pointing right with small arrows pointing left above it.)'"

    It really does look cool though...

    Very strange result flashgamer001. I just used an autorun.lua file.

                   ...and also...

    kaowabunga!  I shall, fireball5000.
