Proposal: Is It Hot in Here or is That Just Me?

Add to the rule “Atomic Structure”

All Atoms have Heat, tracked in the GNDT. Heat defaults to 100. Heat cannot be negative.

Add to the rule “Ionic Bonding”

When a Bond occurs, the Heat of both of the Atoms Bonding becomes the average of their Heats, rounded down.

Add to the rule “Fusion”

When an Atom Fuses with a Reagent, the Atom’s Mass is subtracted from its Heat, and the Reagent’s Mass is subtracted from the Reagent’s Heat. The final mass of the Fused Atom then becomes the average of its Heat and the Reagent’s Heat.

In the rule “Fusion” replace

Fusion is only possible if the Atom has a Mass greater than or equal to the Protons of the Reagent

with

Fusion is only possible if the Atom has a Mass greater than or equal to the Protons of the Reagent, and the Heat of the Atom is greater than or equal to the Mass of the Atom

Add to the rule “Fission”

When an Atom Decays, its Heat becomes its current Heat, divided by 2, rounded up, plus its Mass. The Heat of the Reagent created by the Decay is the Heat of the Atom from before the Decay, divided by 2, rounded down.

In the rule “Reagents” replace

The Atom Adding the Reagent shall roll 4DICE3 and subtract 8 to determine the Charge of the new Reagent.

with

The Atom Adding the Reagent shall roll 10DICE5 and add 70 to determine the Heat of the new Reagent. The Atom Adding the Reagent shall roll 4DICE3 and subtract 8 to determine the Charge of the new Reagent.

In the rule “Reagents” replace

When an Atom is Adding a Reagent, they shall make a comment on the GNDT including the name of the Reagent and both of the necessary dice rolls

with

When an Atom is Adding a Reagent, they shall make a comment on the GNDT including the name of the Reagent and all three of the necessary dice rolls

In the rule “Reagents” replace

A Reagent’s Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons are determined when it is Added.

with

A Reagent’s Protons, Neutrons, Electrons, and Heat are determined when it is Added.

in the rule “Reagents” replace

The format of each Reagent will be as follows:
Reagent X
Protons:
Neutrons:
Electrons:

with

The format of each Reagent will be as follows:
Reagent X
Protons:
Neutrons:
Electrons:
Heat:

To summarize, Atoms have Heat. When Atoms interact in any way, their Heat is averaged. When an Atom Fuses, it loses Heat relative to its Mass, and when it Decays, it gets that Heat back. Atoms cannot Fuse if they don’t have enough Heat. If an Atom doesn’t have enough Heat to Fuse, they’ll have to bond with an Atom to steal some heat, or wait to Decay to get back some Heat.
I might have done something wrong.

Not really clear on how this part works:

“When an Atom Fuses with a Reagent, the Atom’s Mass is subtracted from its Heat, and the Reagent’s Mass is subtracted from the Reagent’s Heat. The final mass of the Fused Atom then becomes the average of its Heat and the Reagent’s Heat.”

Mass is equal to protons plus neutrons, how can you change it to match the average heat? Do you change protons? neutrons?

It doesn’t say anywhere that you’d be changing the Mass at all. You’re subtracting the Mass from the Heat, not the other way around.

Oh wait, oops you’re right. I meant to write Heat there.
