My planned updates to ROCK will add subelements to the game (elements that are read in the HUD as a separate element and have different properties, but are based on a parent element), as well as tweaks to improve functionality and usability.
There are 8 new subelements planned to be added:
The host elements are listed below in parentheses:
Each of the new subelements requires no new element file. The graphics, transitions, and reactions are entirely handled by existing files. These elements require very little additional code, and in return enhance reactions and functionality. These elements do not have enough functionality on their own to merit an entire new element, but as subelements are ideal enhancements, some of which have been asked for repeatedly but offer few advantages as standalones.
Subelements cannot be directly drawn from a menu item like the other elements, because they are not separate elements. They use the parent element, and a designated tmp (or range of tmp values) to determine the subelement. This only works for parent elements that do not use a tmp value for another function.
List of parent elements:
Added reactions due to subelements:
Additional reactions from these basic building blocks are easily added with only a few lines of code.
Other notes: TNT has been edited so that when directly next to ROCK the pressure spike is much higher. This allows it to break ROCK without affecting any other saves. ACID and CAUS have been edited to have a decreased effect on ROCK, due to the fact that sulfides will release both, and their effect pre-edit was goofy to say the least.
Lead melting within the landscape, partially formed with pressures and changing heat, surface eroded by WATR:
All sulfides melted. Note that sulfides and ROCK are the same element, but Sulfides are a subelement and have different metling temperatures and reactions!
Closeup of the cooled down ROCK formations and subelements. The yellow colors are the sulfide variants (no distinction in HUD between roasted and not, roasted is darker, can be edited). The white/silver color particles are Silver, some of the dark gray particles are Lead or Galena.
