Acid mod idea

A silly mod where you can craft acid that dissolves almost everything.

Must have
- Recipe for making bucket with acid (could be something like bucket with water + cooked leaves extract.
- Acid node which dissolves everything except glass

Should have
- Some nodes should dissolve slower then others.
- Animated flowing acid tonyka is willing to help

Could have
- Use vessels mod to contain the acid
- Animation or particles around dissolving node.

I'm open for fun ideas. Nothing is to crazy!

Hum... not sure how this would work...

Do you mean it is a liquid that slowly puts the health of a node down till it breaks? That could work

Griefer Alert! lol

This will be a new tool for the griefers arsenal. Your welcome griefers :). Could also be implemented to work with pipes

That would be really cool. Would it be possible with current mod api to make a visual representation of the decay without having to make decay nodes? :S

For now i was planning to just use remove node function and a ABM. :)

Pipeworks' pipes are supposed to be stainless steel, so as long as they slowly corrode and eventually disappear, and valves and pumps eventually break down when they're carrying acid, fine. :-)

VanessaE, your giving griefers ideas!

I have seen glass pipes somewhere. I don't remember where.

Eh, it should dissolve all nodes except glass AND stone or cobble/bricks. Flowing into cobble/bricks will ''fill'' the bricks/cobble with acid that will flow down from the block if there's air under it. May be tricky to implement tho.

maybe some stuff in the sand mod will help making a flowing acid:
