Sand in a Box · published 19 Nov 2024, 14:45 UTC · build 16459608

Pressure system added to the simulation

  • Pressure now affects all particles.
  • Large pressure differences can displace objects, even walls.
  • This system will be fine-tuned in future updates.

New particles:

  • Dynamite - explodes after a short delay.
  • Black Powder - explodes when ignited, with a less powerful blast.
  • Nitroglycerin - highly unstable unless cooled to a more stable state.
  • Tetracene - detonates upon exposure to electricity.
  • Black Hole - consumes anything nearby.

Various performance and stability improvements:

  • Time rewind is now disabled by default on PCs with 4 GB RAM or less, but can be enabled manually in settings.
  • Improved memory management reduces slowdowns on older PCs with time rewind enabled.
