The Powder Toy

Vacuum error

  • targetedtrains     1st Jul 2014 Member 1 Permalink

    the other day while on powder toy i was using a vacuum to get rid of some water  in a diomond tank. i had another tank of water next to it. When all the water from the first tank was gone it started to suck water through the diomond tank walls of the other tank which realy mucked up what i was doing. Please tell me if you are/had the same issue.

     If it was a one pixel wall, elements can move through one pixel walls if there is enough force applied to them.

    things that are moving too fast will jump through solid surfaces. especially if there's a lot of preasure involved. I don't know why though.

    the movement code checks every 2 pixels for a wall (for particles moving with over 2 total velocity), so a 2 pixel thick wall will block everything no matter what the speed. Stuff can move through one pixel walls if it's moving in just the right way to skip the pixel where the wall is.
