Customizable display modes

    I've seen alot of people whine that they like x from one display mode and y from another but can't have them toegether. I was thinking, instead of alot of display modes, a tick box in which you select multiple effects to be displayed: pressure, velocity, fire glow, liquid glow, portal effects etc. They'll remain the same when you restart TPT, and we should still have presets so that old saves don't get messed up.

    I had the idea as soon as I woke up. Sleep and dreams makes ideas. :D
    Anyway, I sometimes wished for a combined fancy and fire too. I'm almost sure you did too :)

    I always liked fire display, but I don't like the spark effect sometimes, when there are massive amounts of it. Also, I like pressure display, but fire looks all BOYL'y in pressure display. So, I do like this idea. Although coding might be a hassle.

    But let's think of what options could it have.

    Fire and such glow...
    Liquid glow-iness
    Gas glow
    Portal effects
    Pressure
    Velocity
    Heat
    Hot material glow...

    Anything else?

    In terms that we already have, not things that we'll never have because they're too useless and pointless.

    Oh and, life!
