Add glow/shine property to GOLD

    Okay, so recently; and Im sure you know; element GOLD (and other stuff) has been added to TPT.  I've been fooling around with it for a while, and so far, haven't found any way to make it glow/shine. I was actually hoping it would.

     

    Basically, I'm suggesting a property to be added to GOLD so it would glow/shine. But I have some other ideas as well.

    Here's the specifics:

    • The glow would be very similar to the way GLOW glows when pressurized.  However, it will be a more vibrant color of what GOLD's default color already is.
    • The glow won't be default; when spawned in or whatever, it will be in its current TPT default state.
    • The glow starts when the element SOAP comes into contact with the GOLD (I'm sure you get this)
    • I have two ideas for how the glowing happens. First, only particles of GOLD that have touched SOAP will glow. Or second, the glow will spread to from any originating glowing GOLD particles to other touching ones; much like how SPNG darkens and the darkness spreads when soaked with water.

    Also, because GOLD is relatively new and this suggestion only really changes color reactions, not 'physical' reactions, I dont think it will break any saves.

     

    Why is this useful? Well, it gives SOAP a use. It also makes GOLD more unique (I thought it was too similar to TTAN). AND, this adds another glowing element; everyone loves glowy/shiny stuff.

    If you look very closely. GOLD does have a bit of a sparkle, although very very faint.

    The others things sound neat too though, who knows...

    I wanted to make it as unnoticeable as possible but have it still there when you looked, so there it is. Drawing a large blob of GOLD makes you notice something odd about it and see it.

    I could change it to something like this though maybe ...

    It's also WAY to conductive. It can be sparked by anything. -_-

    gold already shimmers/sprakles, but that ain't no match for glowing gold. This way or another, i'm of the opinion that soap need more use than blowing bubbles..
