if you were to focus on simulation realism in terms of heat, pressure, convection, etc then you could be a very interesting rival where powder toy has "failed" to live up to true realism
Thanks, I use roughly k=Q∗L/A(T2−T1) where Q is the Heatflow, L the length, A the surface, T2-T1 is the temperature gradient. And since L and A are one in this system, we can ignore them. So it becomes k=Q(T2-T1). That works pretty well. I just have to account for, that each cell has 8 neighbours and also maintain Q as a constant for each element.
take a look at "the powder toy", you also have pressure gravity and wind
I used to play Falling Sand a lot. The wind and air pressure was a lot of fun to play with.
dayum this is awesome
This is useful in school, I guess. I see huge potential in any kind of eduacation. Would buy this on steam.
Good Job🔥🔥
I can see potential
I can see dead people
Check out the powder toy
Great work! I'm working on a similar concept but I'm struggling with heat. Any paper or equations you followed?

This looks amazing! Can you tell me what technologies you are using for this? Like game engine and ui etc?
Thank you!
I use Unity with URP and UI Toolkit for Unity. I also have a simple custom shader to render everything instanced.
wow awesome simulation.
but how do you simulate the water?
Great work!
Did you use the heat equation PDE to get this nice of a heat propagation or did you use your own system?

krass
This is incredibly impressive -- is there any chance you will release source/binaries? I'd love to play around with this
I very much recommend powder toy. I have leveled cities and build calculators in there. Have fun! :D
When this reaches a level of polish i'm satisfied with, I will probably publish it in some form.
