In Oni, similar can be achieved by molecular printing. A Gaia and Uranus environment isn't absolute necessary but very helpful.

Airborne particles have a less density than in liquids or solid aggregates, so in order to speed up the process, strong air streams are forced towards the construction core. The sky will overcloud and even a controlled tornado can emerge. | ||
