Post Volcano or geyser map.
As most modders know you can make stationary emitters on maps e.g gravity hill and lord tims waterfall map. So what if someone makes a undergroud emitter that emits sharp pixels coloured and named magma. As the pixels slowly make their way to the surface it will leave a crater thus creating a geyser or volcano.

i can't do the magma unless the emitter where a clone that gibs a substance like it (it would have to be placed in & the gibing part alone will be hard (note: i just started spiriting) it will be a good map) and i can do the rest of the map though

I tried this.

Plain particles makes the ground spiky in a bad way.

And rocks clog emitter.

Not to mention lagg.

I even tried it with smokey effects alone.

The emitter just stops eventually, and inevitably.

sorry, guess i can't do it, zalo knows what hes doing, and i hadn't though of the lag, and the other stuff he said. it's a good map if not for the lag, and volcano part would stop. my bad on encouraging you sorry. still work on it. try to make it work.

Check how amrobotics a-4 mod, the propellers are constant emitters.
Just make the emission slightly sharper than the rock material.
And bring the emitters closer to the surface.

Hm... perhaps make it so that it emits Mosparticles, which gib on impact into molten magma, 3 pixels of it. Make the Mosparticles just barely able to cut into dirt, and make the magma pixels just the tiniest bit weaker.

I have started a volcano map a while ago and didn't get round to finishing it. So far i have what i beileve a perfect volcano for my liking but i think adding a magma part that gibs into 3 or so more on impact is good, i shall include that. This is the first time i have told anyone about this so lucky you! I am having a MOSPARTICLE like a rock gib the lava under the surface of the ground, then i made my own 'terrain' which is normal rock but with little lave bits there, this goes from the volcano down to another volcano deeper down which the brain is under. The idea is the low volcano magma hits the lava tunnel which is really just terrain and the lava coems out of the top one.

Ok im not sure this can be done, but can an emitter spit out something like a MovableObject or something like that. Volcanic rock galore, and tthen they gib into lava MOSparticals
