From the inside out:
>Pressurized uranium
>Gunpowder
>C4
>Wax

This can only end well.

EDIT: Right, so acid is very, very volatile.

could we get a during and after pic of that? :P


61.0's out. Update it bro.


Just after detonation, pressure wave sprays uranium and neutrons about the vicinity.


Some time after detonation, pressure tosses about plasma and uranium. Very pretty.


After detonation is finished, floor is littered with uranium, with remaining airflow causing small amounts of neutrons to form.


Damn. I kinda want to do that again.

EDIT: I did it again.
This time, the circle of plutonium was a bit larger and surrounded by a ring of plasma.
The explosion was much larger and more colorful and some of the plutonium melted, but those were the only differences.

Oh, it seems uranium was formed during both blasts. Fascinating.
Fission is fun!

if only buildings could actually fall...

A bomb like that used above could reduce a brick structure to rubble, I wager. If that's what you're going for.

it could do WAY more than that :P

One day I want a 3D rigidbody-enabled Powder Toy, with the capability to zoom into individual atoms and zoom out to a large portion of a 3D box of sorts.

I used one of those plasma arc electronic things or whatever they are, for some reason the arc started randomly flying everywhere.


Death Star is in range.




As the flames lick the side of the building, melting of the walls can be seen.





Regardless of the nuclear fission that plays a part here, and the explosion caused by the gunpowder and C4, the bomb is not all that powerful.

Its power lies not in pressure, but in heat. It is fantastically hot, hence the boiling roostertail of molten brick, glass, uranium, and plutonium at the bottom of the chamber.

The temperature of this pool measured somewhere around 9300°C.

you did better than I did on a topic for this game
good job, mang

The only difference I found in 61.0 was Energy Wall, which... blocks all but energy elements? Huh?

i made a bomb by using uranium, plutonium, and salt

The salt of course being to blind Mr. Stickman, right?
