GLAS breaking on save load

    is there any way to prevent glass from breaking whenever you load a save with glass in it? it gets irritating that even slightly complex saves that include glass have the glass break on save load

    Already fixed for the next version. The bug only manifests if GLAS particles (and particles of a few other types of elements) are in non-zero pressure when saved, so the only solution is to save without pressure. I forgot how to do that, hold on, I'll look into the code.

     

    EDIT: Okay, turns out the solution I was trying to remember only works when you stamp and copy. I'll make it work for full saves for the next version. In the meantime, I guess you'll have to pause the simulation and press '=' to completely reset pressure, and only save after that. :(

    You're welcome! As a side note, I ironed out the handling of pressure inclusion in the UI so now it's just a checkbox in the settings dialog starting next version.
