Addition to CRAY

    I think that if CRAY is sparked with NSCN, it will delete ONLY particles of its ctype. The rest of its functions are the same.

    For example:

    N=NSCN

    C=CRAY

    X=Empty space

    J=Random element

    Y=Another random element

    NCXXXXXXXXXXYJXYJXYXJXYXXJXYJX

    If the CRAY has ctype J and the NSCN is sparked, it will only delete J.

     

    Uses: Any save that requires the deletion of only a specified element (I can't think of any uses right now, but there is currently no fast way of doing this type of deletion).

     

    The only alternative way to do this would to have a detector and cray ctype sprk mounted on a piston, checking every pixel for the element and deleting them one by one.

     Sounds a little complex, but this would be useful

    It is a bit hard to tell whether it deletes the ctype, or deletes everything that isn't the ctype, but either way, this would be very useful. Only problem is that it would break saves that rely on sparking cray with nscn already, so you would have to use a different way to get this to work.

     Oops, typo.

     

    I still want the conductor to be something in electronics, maybe INWR (if it is not already used)?

    Inwr does the same as inst with cray except it is not sparked by bray.  maybe use ptct or ntct

    INWR also doesn't get color from FILT.

    How about ptct = delete ctype and ntct = delete everything but ctype?

    Modder or developer opinions?
