This menu was introduced in 84.0 to fill the needs of the lately added sensor materials.

INVS Invisible

Description: "Invisible to particles while under pressure"

Temp: 22C

When exposed to high pressures, INVS becomes intangible, allowing particles to pass through like E-wall. PHOT can pass through and be transformed into NEUT, but only when unpressurized.

DTEC Detector

Description: "Detector, creates a spark when something with its ctype is nearby"

Temp: 22C

Detector generates a spark (SPRK) when an it's ctype element is nearby. To set its ctype, draw over it with an element like you would with CLNE. When drawing the metal that will receive the spark, or any solid element nearby it, don't accidentally draw on top of the DTEC, because that will set it's ctype and instantly start sparking nearby metal. DTEC can be used as a replacement to detector wall so that you can make your creations smaller.

You can set the .tmp to determine the radius it detects elements from (in the shape of a square)

TSNS Temperature Sensor

Description: "Temperature sensor, creates a spark when there's a nearby particle with a greater temperature (temp)."

Temp: 22C

If a material that is close to TSNS (in a one pixel radius, the 8 surrounding pixels) has a higher temp than the TSNS, it starts to spark nearby conductive materials (in a 2 pixel radius). You can set the TMP to determine the radius it detects temperatures from (in the shape of a square). It doesn't conduct heat, but stores the pressure given, just like TSNS.

PSNS Pressure Sensor

Description: "Pressure sensor, creates a spark when the pressure is greater than its pressure."

Temp: 4C

Pressure sensor is used to detect if the ambient/air pressure is greater than the current temp of the sensor. If it detects such a pressure, it will spark any nearby conductors. It does not conduct heat, but stores the pressure given, just like TSNS.

LSNS Life Sensor

Description: "Life sensor, creates a spark when there's a nearby particle with a life higher than its temperature."

Temp: 4C

Life sensor is an unmeltable and unbreakable element which creates a spark when there's a particle with a higher life than its temperature neraby. Doesn't conduct heat. Can be helpful in DEUT' compressing process when DEUT's life is changing during cooling/heating, so the level of compression can be measured using this element. It can also be used to check when VIBR is close to explode.
