Wifi channels via TMP values?

    Wifi, like most other elements,melts at a certian temperature. Therefore, you can only use temp channels up to it;

    And besides, getting a large block of Wifi to the same temp channel is tough at best. I propose that we have Channels set by The Wifi's TMP Value, giving us much more channels to work with, and eliminating heat as a denaturing factor.

     

    Okay, I'll admit that WIFI doesn't melt under extreme heat, But using TMP to control channels still could be useful.

    First of all, WIFI does not melt.

    Second, WIFI is controlled by tmp, but the tmp is controlled by temp so that the average user can use it.

    Third, why would you need a large block of WIFI?

    WIFI does not melt....
    and by using the PROP tool, setting the temperature of a block/pixel of WIFI takes what, like 2.5 seconds?

     TMP does Not control WIFI

    Each WIFI shown has a Differ TMP value.

    Spark one and they all send out a spark...

    Now if you would just look, you see that a higher TEMP gives a higher TMP value, giving WIFI a different color.

    ...............
    In your save all the WIFI has a tmp value of 3.
    If you set a tmp value to WIFI, it immediatly resets to 3. Changing the temp is the only thing that changes the tmp of WIFI.


    Get it?

    TMP changed the color of the wifi.... why not LIFE? (i mean, why not use LIFE instead of TEMP for channels?)

    I know that if you want to set the TMP of wifi for example to 34 you will use PROP change the TEMP to 3400

    100temp = 1tmp

    200temp = 2tmp

    Xtemp = X\100tmp

    if the highest tmp of wifi was 12345 then you will set the temp 1234500 (just add 00)

    I think it will be better if temp doesn't control tmp

    What would be the point of changing which variable is used?

     

    Life and tmp are just names of integers, it doesn't really make any difference which one is used (except it's easy to make life decrement each frame, so life tends to be used for things like PHOT lifetime). Using temp makes it easy to change the channel with the heat and cool tools, for people who aren't familiar with PROP and what all the properties do.
