Felix Griffin's Editor Mod
Okay, I'm using a hacky workaround. Hopefully the later-items-replace-earlier-ones rule still holds...
"Flammable Lemon Cubes".
WTF? Lol, are those going to have a special Lemon Cube button or something?
The way they work is like this:
There are torches, which ignite when they receive power. Once they're on, they stay on indefinitely.
If a lemoncube touches a laser or a burning torch, it ignites. After thirty seconds it blows up.
So you can ignite more torches by carrying burning cubes to them, but don't hold on to them for too long. You could make some great puzzles with this and a Sendificator.
You can also burn turrets and such, but the lemoncubes are the most interesting.
Looks interesting! What is the format of those ".test" files? Is it just an "Item" block from editoritems.txt?
As for the sendificator model: it sounds like a terrible job having to make that in Propper. (I'm assuming that you're building it out of brushes? Ugh...)
Instead, how about I make a model for you, based on the real one? I was planning to make my own sendificator add-on some time, so I need one anyway. (Got plenty of time, since my Halloween project exploded and I'm not really busy with something else.)
By the way, the 3DS selection meshes are just low-res representations of the parts, like collision meshes in the game itself. If you type "puzzlemaker_drawselectionmeshes 1" in the console, you can see them. When making one, scale it to 1/128 of the in-game size.

Thanks, HMW! I have a pretty "good" Sendificator model now, although it's pretty simplified (the base is a cylinder and a block, then a cylinder up, a block across, and a wedge down). Propper is a great thing. I'm sure a "real" (ie, modelled) one would be much better, this one is just a placeholder.
Do you know of a way to turn an SMD into a 3DS without any paid or trial-version program? Propper can't make one, but it does make reference SMDs.
Vacuum tubes finished, they're fun. Now I just need to fix the flip-flops and the Shadows of Time fizzlers.

Blender can export 3DS files directly; that's how I make them. The SMD tools for Blender can also import reference SMDs, so you could just convert them that way. (Remember to scale it down before exporting!)

Are yo adding the sot mechanic as well?.
Yes, although that just broke today. :S
If I can't fix it I'll release without.
