Element Suggestions: PMGN, NMGN, PP/NMG

    PMGN (Positive Magnets) and NMGN (Negative Magnets) Should be elements created to have similar effects to metals as BHOL or WHOL do on anything liquid or powder. I know, "You can't have moving solids!", but basically what PMGN/NMGN/PPMG/PNMG would do is the same thing PSTN does: push or pull solids in one frame.



    PMGN- Positive Magnet (Attract)

    NMGN- Negative Magnet (Repel)

    PPMG- Powered version of PMGN

    PNMG- Powered version of NMGN



    These elements would not have a melting/breaking point. (EXCEPT EMP)



    USES:

    -You can pull powdered metals through walls to move them out of the way, never having to touch them.

    -You can separate BMTL from other powders.

    -You can separate MERC from other liquids.

    -You can create passageways from METL walls with the Magnets.

    -Separate any metal from any group of elements.

    -You can pull metals through walls. (The attraction/repelling force goes through)

    I don't see how it works like PSTN, and if it has similar effects like BHOL and WHOL, why not use BHOL and WHOL?
    I don't think it will be pulling all metals towards it, only BRMT. (If magnets could pull anything metal towards it, the magnet in your hand could move your car....)


    Also:
    -You can separate BMTL from other powders.

    -You can separate MERC from other liquids.

    You can do this with STOR:



    -You can pull metals through walls. (The attraction/repelling force goes through)
    Not exactly the way walls work. You can't just pull metal through walls if it was under the influence of magnetism.

    In short:
    I don't think this is going to work. If this was going to be implemented, this could be very complex as it would probably need a whole new magnetism system like the air pressure and temperature system we have now.

    The ONLY reason for implementing magnets would be creation of destroyable fusion plants and implementing charged particle deflection. However, this would not work with this style of implementation.

    I forgot to mention one other thing:
    -You would be able to bend PHOT and ELEC patterns with them.

    I worded the wall thing wrong. What I mean is like as if you were holding a magnet under a table and something Magnetic could be moved if it was on top of the table.



    -You can separate BMTL from other powders.

    -You can separate MERC from other liquids.

    Ok I see what you did with the STOR sorter, but honestly, do you really think that someone is going to want to go through all the work of building one when you can use PMGN?


    you're right about the Magnets not just pulling anything. Here is a list of what they should pull/push:


    METL

    BRMT

    MERC

    IRON

    BMTL

    TTAN (but with less force or something like that)

    TUNG (same as ^)

    solids has loss (VelocityLoss) of 1. any velocity applied will become zero again. i wish not....

    Using STOR is really easy...

    Magnetism is a force of attraction or repulsion. I am doing some Physical Science, terms on magnets.

    STOR can only sort with gravity. A magnet can defy gravity in sorting things. There are other uses for magnets anyways, I can't list them all, but I listed what I can think of.

     Nice Ideal! I complete love it.

    I'm pretty sure PIPE+STOR can do that.Neither PMGN nor NMGN are needed to defy gravity.
