C4 Problem

    C4 only explodes with extreme heat and pressure which is only created by other explosives so c4 (as it does in the game) does not explode with fire. c4 should be edited on powder toy to only explode with other explosives or with a blasting cap. i hope the creators of this awesome simulator see this and fix the error. thank you

    Well you see.... Actually the game isen't made too be 100% real. And if you changed a element like C-4 it would corrupt alot of saves.

    1) It isn't an error, it's a feature.
    2) C4 is an ancient element, it's highly unlikely that it'll be changed.
    3) I kind of like that C4 explodes with fire as well, as it's the only pressure-sensitive and fire-sensitive explosive in the game that works well.

    Besides, I hate to rain on your parade, but that would break thousands if not millions of saves. I know how annyoing it is to hear that, but in this case i'm afraid its necessary.

    While your complaining- chew on this...

    -fusion creates a singularity

    -Things can be cloned

    -portals exist

    -neutrons create photons and vice versa in reactions

    -sometimes black hole cant even move goo

    -stickmen get stuck in walls

    -engines make puffs

    -electricity goes in bursts of 4 units

    You think the mods want this to be realistic?

     

    No. They want it to be fun- thus the powder-TOY. I understand how some nice exploding c4 would be nice but it isnt fun for peeps like me that made simulations relying on dependable and containable c-4 reactions to go home after an update to find their famous saves broken.

     

    **note: there are over 10 topics on relatively harmless c4

    -goo is moved by pressure, it needs to be broken first.

    10 pounds?
    Can you really compare TPT's imaginary scale to a real scale? I mean, a lightning strike here causes half a city to be blasted in pieces... Not in real life, and TPT's not real, but it's real fun...

    ok i get that its meant to be fun but simulators are meant to also be real to simulate what would really happen

    No...no they are not meant to simulate real scenarios...at least not this game/"simulation".

    @Everyone else: when playing a game with the baseline of pixels as a "unit" of measurement, don't even try to compare actual units to pixels. It just doesn't work correctly unless a baseline is established, in this case, there is none.
