Reactions
Creates a current of electricity and is used to turn powered materials on or off.
SPRK cannot be placed alone, you need to put it on a conductive material. SPRK can be blocked by in most cases. As long as there is an INSL between the two conductors, it will not go through. Some special elements won't be activated through INSL either, although some will anyway (like
). Some elements have special rules on which other conductors it can conduct to, see each element for help.
Conductivity
SPRK can travel through most conductors every 8 frames, with 4 frames of activity and then 4 frames of rest before a conductor will receive any more SPRK. SPRK travels twice as fast through ,
, or
as it does through most other conductors and one quarter as fast in
. The travel time through
is the same for any length.
Resistance
SPRK produces heat when traveling through most conductors. produces the most heat this way, getting up to 3323.25°C.
,
, and
reach 390.68°C. Unless heated,
will rise until just under 400°C before dropping to reach around 391°C. METL, BMTL, and BRMT will turn maroon when heated to these temperatures.
reaches 35.82°C, expanding if not contained.
and
jump to their current temperature+10C then go back to 22C;
will do the same, unless it produces plasma.
and
heat to exactly 22°C if cooled below that temperature.

do not heat up when conducting.
Some conductors will actually cool down when heated above a threshold and sparked. INWR and WATR cool to 22°C if heated above that temperature; is strange in that it, in small amounts, it actually cools itself down to near absolute zero, but in large enough amounts can heat itself with
to max temperature.
