List of Names for the new tiered GT Machines, open for Suggestions, now also accepting Suggestions for the Base Texture!

How about naming teirs 3-5 after what powers them. like a teir 5 furnace could run off plasma from a fusoin reactor and call it a "plasmatron furnace", "plasmoid furnace". but if you did that I would like a simpler generator than a fusion reactor for generating some plasma. teir 4 could be an advanced electric hybrid furnace generating plasma in the furnace at low efficentcy with no wear on iridium parts(rings). teir 3 could be a basic version requiering plasma to be transfered to it at an insanly inefficent cost and/or by consuming parts.

The centrifuges could follow a simular proposed teir system, combining the industrial centrifuge with the thermal centrifuge. then using plasma as the energy source. the recycler tiers 3-5 fill up with scrap then melt/burn it to get usefull stuff/super matter fab fuel from it.

you could say that the first teir is technically steam powered machines,

*tier

No, it will definitely be all electrically powered (steam powered machines are now tier 0). They are basically the lower tier machines with built-in overclockers and transformer upgrades.

Quote from GregoriusT

Tier 0 is actually ULV

Steam is technologically an own Tier but it is no electric Tier.

Well, I meant technological tiers, not electric tiers.

Maybe abbreviate tech tiers to TT, and electric tiers to ET instead. It could open to some confusion.

Otherwise, for Electric Tiers just use the voltage level names, (ULV, LV, MV, ...) and use Tech X or Tier X for the tech tiers.

Why change the name of something if all your doing is adding upgrades though resipes or right click with an upgrade on a machine?
You could show required voltage useing the resistor color code. LV is black, MV is brown, HV is red etc. i.e. adding over clockers changes machine colors.

names describe what something does or looks like, if it doesn't do it differntly then it is the same thing.

just cause you put bigger tires on your truck it is still [what ever brand you like]
though if you need to fix something under it, It can be easyer but not always.

So I need Names for the tiered GT Machines. [Machine Name] Tier [Tier] is just a little boring.
Note: The first two Tiers should have the same Naming convention and are therefor not included.

I have a theory that the mod is actually done, but greg is postponing because he can't think of names for his blocks, and he doesn't have any textures
If this is like my many other theories, this'll be disproved in about an hour or so.

Quote from GregoriusT

The Mod is sadly far from being done. If have too many things to do, and right now it is not even running due to my overhauls being incomplete.

:(.... back to the hype train!

I think T3 Machine should be so called Highly Advanced *** just like the Highly Advanced Machine Box,a suggestion:just named tier * as placeholder,when you think over what the name should this machine being called,then name them to the name what you have thought.

Just call the first tier "basic", and then you get one rank more xD
Other way ...
Industrial ? Industrial is reserved for multiblock versions ~SpwnX
Or give them a random name of technology (like Steam/Electric/.../whatever)

just comenting because i can, on the start of the topic, the text was diferent, and i also misunderstood it, i was thinking the tiers would be all the same and just the last one would receive a diferent name with a pun, i was going to sugest, basic>improved>advanced>Hi-tech>Super (because for some reason super is a good adjective, hi-tech computers are lower than super computers).

To help in development of a name, it would be good to know what is the best material/work the machine would be doing, so an easy name by product/work covered would be possible.

And i suck at naming, just as writing, and speaking...
