This group contains tools like cooling or heating. Introduced in 59.1 beta.

Air [AIR]

Increases pressure.

This tool doesn't produce any particles, but rather raises the ambient pressure in the area beneath the cursor. By sliding the cursor around with the mouse button held, you can cause the tool to increase pressure easily four times as fast.

Vacuum [VAC]

Decreases pressure.

This tool doesn't produce any particles, but rather lowers the ambient pressure in the area beneath the cursor.

Cool [COOL]

Cools down particles.

This tool doesn't produce any particles, but instead lowers the ambient temperature of any particles lying beneath the cursor. By sliding the cursor while holding the mouse button, this tool works about four times as fast.

Heat [HEAT]

Warms up particles.

This tool doesn't produce any particles, but instead raises the ambient temperature of any particles lying beneath the cursor. By sliding the cursor while holding the mouse button, this tool works about four times as fast.

Wind [WIND]

A Drag tool of sort. It creates pressure/velocity to "Move" elements.

Positive Gravity Tool [PGRV]

Not an element, click this tool anywhere to increase gravity in the selected area, particles will thus be drawn into that area. Newtonian Gravity must be enabled for it to work.

Negative Gravity Tool [NGRV]

Not an element, click this tool anywhere to decrease gravity in the selected area, particles will thus pushed away from that area. Like PGRV, Newtonian Gravity must be enabled for it to work.

Edit Property Tool [PROP]

When chosen click on a particle and all particles of that type touching it will be selected and an input box will appear, the top contains the name of a property such as ctype or temp which is usually edited via console, the bottom box contains a value, it currently only accepts numbers so the numerical value assigned to each element in the source must be entered for ctype and type. If you want to make clne clone dust you would click it, type ctype into the top and 1 into the bottom. To change the life of deut to 1000 you would click the deut, type life into the top and 1000 into the bottom.
