Add a stasis wall

    A stasis wall would prevent physics from taking place within the wall. Basically, don't update any pixels within the wall. PSTN could be used to move creations into and out of stasis. 

     

    Useful for showcasing or storing unstable items (bombs).

    Oh, I think it would be a nice thing to have!

    Yes. This sounds interesting and would be usefull.

    hmmm... will electronics work inside of the wall?

    Do you mean "Don't update physics" or "Don't call any of the particles' update functions"? Those are 2 different things

    Well, the pause button says that its function is "pause physics". Something similar to pausing everything inside the wall.

    What about air simulation?

     I think that it would be frozen too. neat idea BTW

     Thats a good question.

    Will air simulation just be swallowed when it tries to enter? Will it be deflected?

    I think it just could work like Gravity Wall, but instead of turning off gravity, turn off time in borders of the wall. Interesting effect.
