Trying to quickly redesign this:

http://tpt.io/.275692

So that it creates a new element instead of modding the original. Here's what I've got:

local ktan = elements.allocate('MOD', 'KTAN')
elements.element(elements.MOD_PT_KTAN, elements.element(elements.DEFAULT_PT_TTAN))
elements.property(elements.MOD_PT_KTAN, "HeatConduct" , 0)
elements.property(elements.MOD_PT_KTAN, "Hardness" , 0)
elements.property(elements.MOD_PT_KTAN, "Weight" , 10000)
sim.can_move(elements.DEFAULT_PT_DEST, elements.MOD_PT_KTAN, 0)
function ttan1(i,x,y,s,n)
local type = tpt.get_property("temp", x, y)
if type > 300 then
tpt.set_property("temp", -math.huge, x, y)
end
tpt.set_property("temp", -math.huge, x, y)
local type = tpt.get_property("type", x + math.random(-3,3), y + math.random(-3,3))
if type == tpt.el.dest.id then
sim.gravMap(x/4, y/4, -256)
end
local type = tpt.get_property("type", x + math.random(-1,1), y + math.random(-1,1))
if type == tpt.el.virs.id or type == tpt.el.vrss.id or type == tpt.el.vrsg.id then
tpt.create(x + math.random(-1,1), y + math.random(-1,1), 'soap')
end
local rx,ry = x + math.random(-1,1), y + math.random(-1,1)
local type = tpt.get_property("type", rx, ry)
if type == tpt.el.soap.id then
tpt.delete(rx, ry)
end
end
tpt.element_func(ttan1,tpt.el.ktan.id)

Any nasty surprises in store, or will this work fine?

Hmm. There's a few problems. The last line calls an invalid field, and both KTAN and TTAN look identical in the menu

I kinda guessed the second part, but the id thing was weird for me, thanks!
