The Powder Toy - Games - Facepunch Forum

Sami, would you mind creating a little diagram of how it's working in paint or something, to tough to see inside the game

[QUOTE=Unaligned;13290041]Greetings. I'm the author of this app (the executable part - bri3d does the server). Electricity is conducted by metal & water in a different way than by conductive walls. You can however connect them to each other quite seamlessly (as long as metal/water touch the walls, they will be electrically connected). Conductive walls have another important property: a crossing of 1-cell-wide vertical and horizontal walls will [b]not connect them[/b] (this is a new feature from today).[/QUOTE] Woah shit, First bri3d, then Freeplay now Skylark o.0 This is turning into a unaligned reunion xD

[QUOTE=Sami-ph34rz;13298077]I see. Doesn't beat water spraying into detectors though. More water = more heat[/QUOTE] How are you doing that? I'm trying it but nothing really happens.

[QUOTE=barrab;13297469]It's been around for about a year now. Look for Falling sand game.[/QUOTE] Powder Toy =/= Falling Sand.

Nitrogen + Gas = Boom.

*Nitroglycerin

Got it working. Turns out when he said he uploaded it, it was like one version older and he uploaded the new new new version like a hour later.

Woah you guys need to check out the one: "Decimal counter with display" It's AWESOME.

Woah. Thanks mate!

I made a little fan based on sami's fan, I did some tweaking and made mine a little more effective. [img]http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/8314/39290029fo5.jpg[/img] search for fan or jet and you should find it.

Can explain how that works?

Did you test it out? It works by using water going through a detector which in turn creates pressure. I should put a clone with some nitr and fire and make the most kickass flame throw ever.

i made a nuclear combustion gun check it out just search for "nuclear combustion gun"

This looks awesome! I hope it works with win7... [b]EDIT:[/b] Yep.

Woah. This is so cool. I made a pressurized blast that infinitely shoots fire and heat, like an explosive blastwave. I've been blowing up houses for an hour.

Is it just me, or did powder just close when I went to save and now there are no saves?

[QUOTE=IlikeHL2;13303720]Is it just me, or did powder just close when I went to save and now there are no saves?[/QUOTE] Same here. The server must be down.

I noticed that too is the server down for right now?

Fucking balls. I was working on an awesome bomb thing that just looked cool

Oh it's up now

finally now i can upload my thruster

We moved over to a new server - everything is working now!

Some suggestions: Differentiate molten metal, rock, and nuclear waste. They're all the same. Make the conductive wall reflect neutrons. Add more filters. Great work so far.

I really like it. My only qualm is that it limits the amount of particles you can have.

Only suggestions i have is to be able to make the window bigger at your choice, instead of only really big and really small. Second is to add more elements...i cant think of anything else to make but the same old things...

[QUOTE=bri3d;13304153]We moved over to a new server - everything is working now![/QUOTE] Hey! I can log in now! I haven't been able to log in since I first got it, I wonder if searching works too... It does! Woo.

How long until the next build? [img]http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/biggrin.gif[/img] And what features are they adding to it?

[QUOTE=Ishmael12;13305188]How long until the next build? [img]http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/biggrin.gif[/img] And what features are they adding to it?[/QUOTE] Go get it - we pushed one a few minutes ago - it has a partially-new search interface!

Greetings. Thanks for both all the warm words & the criticism. I'm generally against adding new elements - there's a lot of unexplored complexity in the interactions of current elements. I might consider the idea of making metal harder to melt, for instance not allowing it to be melted with fire (only lava), or other changes to the current elements, though. I hope the new search UI will improve your user experience. In particular, I'd like to encourage you all to use well-known tags on your creations, that'll make them easier to find.
