Changes to polonium (slight)

    Since in reality, Polonium is, due to being so highly radioactive, a very deadly poison, I would like to see this represented in TPT too.

    It is currently represented to an extent, but I feel like the rate at which it produces Neutrons/decaying is just too slow.

    I would suggest increasing the odds at which a Polonium particle produces a neutron by at least a factor of 2. Maybe even 3 or 4.

    To accomodate this I would also suggest increasing its meltin point to 650 degrees celsius.

    Just a small suggestion.

    this would probably break some saves

     That is highly likely, but I am currently running an experiment regarding the radiation that Polonium creates.

    My results so far are highly disappointing, telling me that polonium never depletes because it stops producing neutrons after a while.

    Then again, my test method could be flawed.

    if it stops producing neutrons and turns gray, that means it is depleted

     turns gray doesn't means depleted (in my mod, when "continuously" contact with POL2)

    OK, but this thread isn't about your mod. It's about official TPT.

     shouldnt it be depleted at a tmp of 5? Because none of the POLO-particles in my test setup reached that tmp value
