Move Charging

[Simplicitee]

So when lightning is charged, it shows those aqua colored redstone particles, and I was thinking to make earth moves that need charged green redstone particles.

Earth: Charged moves show Green Redstone Particles or Dirt Breaking Particles
Water: Shows Bubbles when selecting a source

What earth moves specifically?

That doesn't logically make sense to me.

The ones that have a chargetime, so ShockWave and EarthSmash.
Tremorsense could have the same thing to, just switch the particles.

It's just switching the blacksmoke particles with green redstone particles. Green represents earth better than the black.

That would be nice, but what about just dirt breaking particles. Seems more realistic for earthbending in my opinion.

That would work too. I just don't think the blacksmoke particles represent earth very well.

 

[JewFroJustin]

I can agree with you there

Why has NOBODY ever thought of this before? You get a 11/10.

We could only change the color of redstone particles 'on the fly' as of recently

You could say that the black smoke is the shear amount of focus the bender is having. It's just so intense that you can see the power flowing out of his ears... Yea, nvm, ignore me. Down with blacksmoke4earth

why not lets say, just display the blockbreaking animations in like a pitter patter theme around the players feet? as if the ground was quaking?

 

[JewFroJustin]

Could we also add to the original post to change the black smoke for water to a collection of bubbles gathering where you selected a source?

If it was around their feet they'd have to be looking at their feet to know if the move has charged up, which would be kind of a pain..

not exactly, if the area where the particles appear is big enough, and the particles "jumped" then ya know

That's kind of counterproductive. I'd rather have black smoke in my face instead of looking at my feet to know when to launch a shockwave.

Having breaking dirt in my face might be a cool idea though...

Yay! Bubbles!

From my experience with particles which is slim, You cannot use bubble particles above water.

Well the bubbles could be used for plantbending, and then blue redstone particles for water or black smoke which is fine in my opinion.
