I've been trying to figure out a few nuances of this. For example,

- Sand will erode "spouts"
- Cera will burn (but walls won't) - makes a great "fuse" to a pool of oil

- Plants love water. Plants burn.
- Namekuji loves water (it makes it grow), but salt will shrink it (causing it to explode into molten pieces, and new Namekuji appears
- Oil burns quite well

Any other interesting aspects anyone has found? (besides the fact that WebSense doesn't block it - YAY!

)

Blah. It's in a websense category that is blocked from my work. Ohhhh well..I guess I'll have to find something else to stifle my productivity.

Oil on fire is 'teh coolest'

Thank you Markel...you just made the-time-that-has-to-pass-before-I-get-my-car-stereo move that much faster.

I like to fill the entire screen with spout (aka clouds) and then set off a ???. This will eat up most of the clouds, but leave little tiny pieces with a lot of surface area which will cause a deluge of water. Then start off some plants that will quickly take over the entire screen. Then set the plants on fire.

The plants eat the water,
the fire burns the plants,
and the water tames the fire.

It creates a nonstop cycle, and it looks pretty trippy.

Markel · 01-31-2006, 06:47 PM

Try this out: turn sand, water, salt, oil, and speed up to 5. Then unleash a ???.

Plants form a protective wall against the namek..thingy
if you wall of a section with a line/wall of plants, the namek.. thingy will not harm things on the other side of it.

ive somehow managed to crash it

zero2dash · 02-01-2006, 02:26 PM

I tried to do that yesterday but didn't have any luck (so I thought maybe it wasn't possible).

Nice job.
