I think it's a good idea to add the synthesis of nitroglycerin by mixing glycerin (soap) and nitric acid (acid), beacause that's how it is actually produced and soap and acid are already in the game

You've got a point, if we have the ingredients why not use them. And it won't break any saves.

Hythonia

...It will. If a save uses ACID and SOAP, it won't work as intended. That's what "breaking saves" means.

And we don't need it at all.

1: I'm aware of what "breaking saves" means.

and 2: Why would anyone make a save that involves mixing ACID and SOAP, unless this new feature was added?

This won't break saves. Nobody is mixing ACID and SOAP.

If it did break saves, it wouldn't be a big deal.

"Breaking saves" is reffering to changes that would break a significant number of saves using common materials or reactions. This isn't one of those.

Mm, that's entirely fair. My bad.
I'm still not certain if it's needed, but I guess that could be a useful feature?

i guess it'd be cool for new "refinery/factory" type saves, i like this idea
