New element: Emulsifier

    Okay, so Emulsifier works similarly to a real emulsfier-
    It will cause two different liquids to follow each particle, therefore 'bonding' them, and allowing them to mix.
    The uses of such an element would be creating custom rocket fuels, mixing liquids of differing densities together, or in the case of two reactive liquids (LRBD and Water) it could potentially speed up the reaction.
    Of course it would have it's own routes to being destroyed, likely through fire or high heat.
    Tell me what you think.

    correct in most cases. I'm not so sure about mixing up the previous saves, but who knows?
    And yes, I do suppose It wouldn't be the most space-efficient thing.

    Lynxrufus:

    and this element would screw up pre existing saves

    Well not really, considering that its a new element and if there are no per-existing saves with that element it can't really break any... Anyways, I like the concept, im not sure how it could work.

    Why can't you use mixers made by you or others to help make the mixture?

    liquids of different densities seperate out- which is why emulsifiers are used- to 'bond' oil and water.
    Or in this case any two liquids.

    Then mabye that would require a rewrite of all the different liquids or a new variable density function. Honestly, it doesn't seem that interesting.

    says you.

    I think it would be a good addition to tpt. For example, if WATR and ACID didn't react, you could make a dilute acid. By mixing different liquid explosives, you could make different fuels. And thats not that bad at all.

    You can mix liquids of different densitys in a contained area when gravity is off.
