Strange explosive

Hello.
I noticed something strange about the C-4 explosive.
If you place a thin layer of it and you ignite it on the left side, it will explode alltogether almost immediately, ignited on the right side it burns down like fuse, only faster.
Is it made with purpose like that, or is that a bug? -
rbdm does that too

@HapyMetal (View Post) particle update order, not much you can do about it

U can find a similar situation on wireline.

Try placing a thin layer of it starting from the right edge. Does it still explode towards the right, or does it now explode towards the left?
This is most likely because when the C4 particle updates, it turns into fire and creates pressure in order to explode. The next particle due to update is going to check out its surroundings, and sees that the old C4 turned into fire, and explodes too. This all happens in one frame, so the explosion is instant.
While, in the other direction, the particles that turn into fire are the last ones to update, so the other C4s have already updated this frame and won't turn into fire.Edited once by boxmein. Last: 6th Jun 2016
