     The Powder Toy is not going to be Need For Speed, it never will be. Same with Grand Theft Auto, now I am starting to think you're trolling. You obviously ignored jacob1. Like coryman said there's a realistic science mod, if you're interested go ahead and download that.

    Read my comment again. I am not tring to make TPT into NFS or GTA but trying to help improve..but about trolling: wonder why such advertisment put then?!?!..

     

    >>> Have you ever wanted to blow something up? Or maybe you always dreamt of operating an atomic power plant? Do you have a will to develop your own CPU? The Powder Toy lets you to do all of these, and even more!

    The Powder Toy is a free physics sandbox game, which simulates air pressure and velocity, heat, gravity and a countless number of interactions between different substances! The game provides you with various building materials, liquids, gases and electronic components which can be used to construct complex machines, guns, bombs, realistic terrains and almost anything else. You can then mine them and watch cool explosions, add intricate wirings, play with little stickmen or operate your machine. You can browse and play thousands of different saves made by the community or upload your own – we welcome your creations! <<<

     

    So as all can see the text put up by website contradicts some aspects of The Powder Toy, especially text about blowing stuff up and explosions. Either need to specify what can we actually do in TPT or improve to match description. If i would be trolling i would write other suggestion.

     Nuclear power plants already exist in TPT and computers, do you even play this? You don't even have a save. If you want to see a computer I suggest looking at @LBPHacker's saves. A game being too realistic like The Powder Toy would be boring and not interesting.

    Please do not accuse people of trolling. It is unhelpful and wrong in this case. If you think someone is trolling, PM me instead.

    I gave some reasons why the explosions you want may not be possible in TPT. But I still think that explosions and especially the pressure system in TPT are good enough. You can't simulate solid objects breaking apart in realistic ways when everything is a single particle.
    It's difficult to entirely change the physics model after the game has been this way for so long. I don't know why you think the explosions are bad, and the description on the homepage is perfectly accurate.

    On the contrary. Would be more interesting and less boring.

    Thanks. This explains why physics engine not support explosions BUT then maybe add simply indicating animations of cracking so we know explosives worked and how much?
