Request: High voltage fun (flyback transformer, custom gas discharge lamps, arcs and sparks!) #308

MFernflower commented 9 years ago

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a few high voltage items, however I am aware that there is no AC support in this mod. But these transformers output pulsed DC at around 20kV 10 mA (via a internal rectifier diode). I like the idea of arcs and sparks and also the ability to make custom lamps (tubes or bulbs filled with different mixtures of gas and sealed - however a gas system and noble gasses would have to be added) and as the output of the flyback is pulsed DC (at around 20khz) it should not be to hard to add to the game. I am free to skype call or type out a design document if you wish to add this

I think someone said that power poles are planned.

Baughn commented 8 years ago

Power poles are functional, even; it's a matter of cleaning up the code, which will happen whenever I find the time for it. But this is not the bug for that.

@MFernflower: The simulation operates at split 20Hz / 400Hz. 20kHz anything can't be simulated directly; we'd need an actual AC simulation, and that isn't in the cards.
