Whats wrong?
-
What is wrong w/ my script? When I try to run it in TPT it says: Helium.lua:22: unexpected symbol near '='
Any suggestions? I have gone over it like 4 times now...

can you explain what you are trying to do here?
elements.property(elements.SQRT_PT_BISX, "HighTemperature", 400)
elements.property(elements.SQRT_PT_BISX, "HighTemperatureTransition", (gravity = -0.5))
elements.property(elements.SQRT_PT_BISX, "LowTemperature", -150)
elements.property(elements.SQRT_PT_BISX, "LowTemperatureTransition", (gravity = 0.5))
I'd like to point out that temperatures are in Kelvin, not celcius, so if you want that to transition at 400C, you need to add 273.15 (use 673.15 instead), same with the negative one. And then for the real error ... using "(gravity = -0.5)" doesn't make any sense. Transitions have almost nothing to do with gravity, instead of "(gravity = -0.5)" you should put the ID of the element you want to transition into. I'd need to know which element you want it to turn into before I tell you what to put :P -
I was trying to make it so that when the gas was heated to a certain degree it would rise, and when cooled to a certain degree it would sink. That was my best guess as to what it might be... I feel like a n00b now. :)Edited once by Squirtle. Last: 7th May 2014

I don't code lua, but if you want to modify the gravity at a certain temperature, there got to be something like
if(element.temp==xxx)
{
gravity=-0.5
}
right? -

nope :P. Gravity is a per-element thing, not per-particle. You can't have it vary per-particle unless you modify the c++ code.
You could modify .vy, maybe ... -
