Radiation Through Portal

    I have noticed that when photons and neutron impact against portal in, most of it bounces off, wouldn't it be better if every particle of radiation that impacts against it gets sent into the portal network?

    It seems a lot like photons through breakable metal, yeah, I find it annoying.

    Actually, BMTL is supposed to let 50% of photons pass through. But Portal should absorb every thing that enters it.

    Can any modders check if doing such would be feasible.

    The reason it doesn't at the moment is because portal just deletes and re-spawns the element. This means that the photons will most likely travel in a different direction to that of which they entered. The portals are currently being redone to allow for this though I believe. Or it was for elements like bomb, which even one particle, will destroy all blue portal.

    Same as for thunder it doesn't spawn it

    Wait, so in a newer version PRTI will absorb all photons?
