Okay, first things first, this is not an attempt to get moving solids, nor will it lead to them. The idea behind this is a way to get a powder to behave like a moving solid without glitching the game to pieces. Obviously, I have little knowledge of the game code, so this might not work, but read it first.

This is my idea:

Two new elements are added, for the sake of arguement, lets call them positive magneto (PMAG) and negative magneto (NMAG). They are both powders without a solid form, they don't melt, don't conduct, don't burn, are dissolved by acid etc. There main property however, is that they stick to themselves and the other one, controlled by tmp (When I say stick, I mean they will share the same vx and vy). For example, a tmp of 0 means they will stick to nothing, a tmp of 1 means they will stick to the opposite polarity (PMAG will stick to NMAG and vice versa), a tmp of 2 means they will stick to the ones of the same polarity and a tmp of 3 makes them stick to all other magneto. That would be quite simple (hopefully), but this bit would be harder but make it work better: if you give them a life of 1, they will be actively drawn towards whatever the tmp says they should be attracted to, which would mean a ball of NMAG surrounded by PMAG, all with a tmp of 3 and life of 1 would hit a solid and roll. A tmp2 value would dictate the range of attraction.

What do you think?

 Good point. However, it isn't like glue because of one thing: My thing never adds properties for solids to move. It stays as a powder and acts as a solid, jelly like liquid, but the powder part of it makes it more of a solid. It is just a very, very viscous liquid. TPT already has a structure for viscosity in liquids, so this just mimicks that structure in a powder. It would be simpler than viscosity because it only worries about two different elements. It is literally a bunch of powder that hits a solid surface, and behaves differently to most powders.

I think that doesn't qualify as glue, what do you think?
