    same properties as glass, but cannot be melted by energy particles. uses: lenses for lasers, blah other stuff What do you guys think?

    Heat up the photons after going through the glass?
    This is basically just unmeltable glass.

    maybe, but after they travel through a lens they typically don't travel straight anymore and therefore are difficult to heat. right?

    I guess. Maybe photons just shouldn't heat up glass or something, or you could try cooling the glass with something at the same time (i don't know if that would work)

    I was just thinking about all the cool photon tricks people do with lenses, and thought about maybe being able to do the same with lasers would be neat. maybe a prism laser or something.

    What about a variable setting? like tmp 1 is normal and tmp 2 would be how you described

    sure, why not?

    It should work, unless glass already stores it for some reason, but I wouldn't know :P I will have to look at the source, I don't think it does...
    EDIT:
    Can't see anything related to tmp values, so it would work.

    This should do the trick:
    tpt.eltransition.glas.tempLowValue = -1
    tpt.eltransition.glas.tempHighValue = 10001
    tpt.eltransition.glas.presLowValue = -257
    tpt.eltransition.glas.presHighValue = 257

    Indeed it does
