Dust help

    Is it possible to make dust act like Stkm or figh or tron? I would like to know the commands if they exist. (i know you  can make other elements have the properties of another, but i want to do it with tron/stkm and dust)

     

    Or even just make dust act like antimatter. That would help if someone knows the commands.

     

     

    If not, then could it be added? this might bee a way to make artificail life in TPT

    Yes and no

    There's a lua script called Magical Merge Master 3000, not EXACTLY what you want but is similarhttp://starcatcher.us/scripts/#6

    You press M and then you let the magic lua do the "merge"

     

    Why you want to do that?

    If for the colour you can use tpt.elem.dust.color=0x123456 (Use a real hex. color)

    I think nobody in this thread knows what they are talking about ...

    There isn't a way to make other elements control like STKM, stickmen are hardcoded. So is TRON, but cracker64 made a controllable TRON script once.

    If you want artificial life, you'll have to code the movement yourself. Making it work like STKM wouldn't help anyway, because STKM don't move unless you tell it to.

    Setting colour is easy, you can use tpt.el.dust.color=0xFF5A5A5A (makes a amtr(ish) colour).

    Sticking can be gravity or pressure based

    pressure

    local a = elements.element(elements.DEFAULT_PT_DUST)

    function dustalt(i,x,y,s,n)

    tpt.set_pressure(x, y, nil, nil, -15)

    end

    tpt.element_func(dustalt, a)

     

    gravity

    tpt.set_gravity(x, y, nil, nil, -15)

     You know how antimatter moves around really wierdly? I would like to make dust move like that, but so it didnt dissapear or destroy stuff (Or maybe make dust move aroud and act like a termite) Also is there a way to make things move slower?

    You need to edit the source and add a pressure generation cap to amtr
