A moving solid that does not obey gravity and floats in mid air and may wander around the screen. When moved by pressure it will emit a "tail" of plasma. It will spawn with an initial life (random to a range) and at the end of it's life will randomly either fade and vanish, or violantly explode into plasma. It will also explode if under to much pressure, collides with a nonconductive solid at high speed, or gets severely damaged. It will be attracted towards, and transfer spark to, conductors. This will also cause it to loose life faster. It can be "recharged" (live longer) by plasma, lightning (not thunder), SPRK(watr). If you warp, or crush it, it will go off (detonate).
properties
Name: PBAL
Color: 7DF9FF (official electric blue)
Special: harms stickmen, can be set to be hot and explosive, or cold (disarmed, no tail, still trasfers spark)
(sitting and reading when he notices this)
"What the heck?" *stomp* *KA-POP!* (feels satisfied)
(goes outside to see where it came from...and...) ANGRY DADDY!
*scream*
A) star is already used B) This does not generate gravity, star does not move
My moving solids are in the works, but they're a bit tricky to code...
Where have you been?
No moving solids. This should be treated as a powder. 1 px of PBAL has all of the properties you described and acts independently of other PBAL particles. Then we'd also need FBAL (fireball, leaves trail of fire behind it) and/or CBAL (generates trail of its ctype).
EDIT: It would be more interesting if it was affected by gravity.
this belongs on the mod forums...

No, it doesn't. The mod forums are for help making mods, suggestions for mods, and the mods themselves. The Feedback forums' description is "Things you would like to see in the next update"
As for the plasma ball, i dont see many uses other than a thing that someone tries once or twice. :/
