Fusion makes BMTL?

    I was recently experimenting with a circular particle accelerator to simulate the universe forming, when I realised that I had accidently messed up by placing another patch of SING. A mass of fusion started in the center, and I decided to just let it run and see what happens. After I few minutes of watching, I realised that an ever-expanding patch of Molten BMTL was forming in the center. I had none of the element in my design, and the entire thing was coated in layers of HSWC, TTAN, and DMND. Eventually, the BMTL grew to be the size of the structure its self!

     

    I have tried this in other scenarios, and it also happens. Could anyone explain to me why this is?

    It is a problem that seems to cause issues with my save.

    Sounds like a developmental glitch. Perhaps there may actually have been a melting/cooling process with another element that came out to the final reaction of BMTL? Please list all of the elements used.

     I think that what happens is that fusion now makes molten BRMT, which can then be cooled to yield BMTL. It used to produce SING instead. (which I still prefer)

    SING, NEUT, EXOT, DMND, GPMP, HSWC, TTAN, PSCN, NSCN, INST, and ARAY.

     

    It produced around 100 parts BMTL in a few minutes. D:

    Interesting. It doesn't mention a reaction with BMTL on the wiki, but it could be new. Wouldn't normal IRL Fusion create iron though, or am I lacking in basic knowledge on how the universe was sort of formed?

     Iron is the heaviest atom that can be formed in a star I think...

    How did you end up with an ever-expanding patch of broken metal if you had SING in there? :P

     

    It's sort of hard to verify this without like, a save demonstrating it.

    You must wait for a bit.

    I think the fusion is forming oxygen which in tpt can create broken metal under a lot of pressure and heat, or at least that could be one explanation.

    I would suppose the EXOT is being bleached by the NEUT and is replacing itself with BMTL
    where is that bmtl?
