Speed Constants
-
a spark goes 2 pixels at a time, this isn't a constant though really, just how it works. Also, sparks have a life of 4, that resets to 0, and then the metal gets a life of 4 and can't conduct til it's back to 0 again.
Also, there isn't an exact speed STNE drops, you could probably measure it in game somehow. Related properties are:
Advection = 0.4f;
AirDrag = 0.04f * CFDS;
AirLoss = 0.94f;
Loss = 0.95f;
Collision = -0.1f;
Gravity = 0.3f;
There are other constants though, like a bunch of air constants that are never changed and I don't really understand. Most of the gravity / speed things are defined for every element though, and are all different. -
PHOT either bounces off or gets absorbed by gaseous elements, GLAS and WATR slows down PHOT dramatically (around 2-3 px per second)
Also, STNE, without any pressure or velocity enable, falls at 8px per second.

1. Place any element that can fall inside the accelerometer
2. Once you think it can't accelerate anymore, press F, frame by frame, measure how many pixels it travels in a second, at its fastest.
A list of stuff on how fast they fall (default gravity mode, vertical)
PQRT: 6px per second
STNE: 8px per second
BCOL: 6px per second
BRMT: 7px per second
BVBR: 1x per second
FWRK: 8px per second
All Liquids: 1-2px per second (they have a chance to move 2px per second at their fastest falling speed)
CLST: 5px per second
BGLA: 7px per second
SALT: 7-8px per second
SAND: 6px per second
URAN: 7px per second
PLUT 7px per second
....and i put too much thought into this. 6_9

There aren't any speed constants :(
It all depends on the outside air. You can only measure it in still air and that's about the most you could do. @EqualsThree is the closest you can get to.
