New element TRBN

    I don't know,but...Turbine? An electronic solid that generates SPRK when near a particle with a higher velocity  than the TRBN particles temperature.  I m pretty sure TPT does not have a velocity meter, but this could be useful for nuclear reactors and physics. (For instance,a car exploding when a particle is thrown at it at enough speed).  

     

    The element could also have a ctype where it only generates SPRK when the moving particle is the same as its ctype.  For instance, TRBN (STNE) would only generate SPRK when the moving particle is STNE.  It would not react to any other elements.

    I think this is somewhat usefull. It would be hard to code, beacouse developers would have to add a better velocity system.

    VSNS? It's a good idea.

    No new system would be needed, it could just check if the particle temperature < ((vx^2)+(vy^2))^0.5. That's comparitavely simple and would be very useful.

    QuanTech didn't link it himself, so I will: https://github.com/simtr/The-Powder-Toy/pull/387

    It would also check for any velocity.

     What the heck do you mean, by VSNS?

     VSNS = Velocity Sensor. Also I closed that pr, so :(

    Ok, I agree. This isn't that hard to make and it's usefull.

    This needs to be a thing
