A useful electronic element suggestion.

    CIRC (Circuit), An element that could be used to majorly decrease the size of electronic creations.

    -It would be a dark grey colour. 

    -Left clicking on it would open a 16*16 window (like the zoom window) that you can place elements in.

    -Conductors on the edge of the window will conduct to and from that side of the pixel of CIRC.

    -At 2000 degrees kelvin it would turn into 1 pixel of BREL

    -It is destroyed by acid, caus, bomb, dest, amtr, sing, deleting cray, etc.

    -It is immune to pressure.

    -It wouldn't be able to be created by CRAY, CLNE, BCLN, PBCN, PCLN.

    -There would be a limit of 100 pixels of CIRC on the screen at once to prevent lag.

    -Other possible names, CHIP, MCHP.

     

    I don't know how hard it would be to code and put in the game but it would be really useful if it was possible.

    this is a great idea

    let's imagine there are 16 electronic elements, that's 4 bits, 16x16 gives 256 particles, which is 1024 bits, or 128 bytes. current particle format only allows around 18 bytes per particle

    interesting idea.

    what's more interesting, someone has to replace like all particle lookup code with one that supports there "warps", that'd lag a lot, IMO
