Element Won't Transition
-
I've been trying to make one of my elements transition to a different element under pressure, but it doesn't transition. Here's a snippet of my script.
elements.property(metalGa,"HighTemperature",302.9146) elements.property(metalGa,"HighTemperatureTransition",elements.HYDRA_PT_LGAL) elements.property(metalGa,"HighPressure",10) elements.property(metalGa,"HighPressureTransition",elements.HYDRA_PT_BGAL) elements.property(metalGa,"LowPressureTransition",NT)
elements.property(metalGa,"LowPressure",IPL)
I want it to transition to HYDRA_PT_BGAL, but when I apply pressure it does nothing. If needed, I can post the whole script.
-
The most common reason for this is that elements.HYDRA_PT_BGAL doesn't exist at the time that line of code runs. For that reason, I recommend putting all transition changes at the end of the script, after all your custom elements are defined.
Also that NT / IPL stuff is unnecessary unless you previously did elements.element and are trying to overwrite a low pressure transition that element had. By default, transitions are already NT (no transition) / IPL (impossible pressure low) -
Alright, that fixed that problem, but now I'm encountering another. So I got the solid to transition into a liquid when heated up and a powder when pressure is applied. The powder just turns into the liquid form when heat is applied. But since the script for the liquid form is above the scripts for the powder and the solid form, the liquid can't transfer back to the solid form. It's organized like this:
Liquid - LowTemperatureTransition(Solid)
Powder - HighTemperatureTransition(Liquid)
Solid - HighTemperatureTransition(Liquid)
