[Addon v1.23][SSP] CustomNuclearItems v1.1.0

Name: CustomNuclearItems
Summary: some modifications that let's modders add there custom items without changing the nuclear reactor itself.

Description:

ever want to make an custom item for your reactor, but never wanted to change the ic2's nuclear reactor itself?
well now it's possible with the changes this addon creates you can make custom items just by implementing some interfaces into you code
isn't that easy?

or if you want to use some of the items then this changes let you use those items found in the next post

no pic's because I only change code and didn't add some custom items to the game (yet, after balancing maybe)

Download:
mediafire - CustomNuclearItems v1.1.0 for IC2 1.23 users_version
CutomNuclearItems1.1.0.zip <- forum download link

for anyone who want to mod it => api (extract in you mcp directory)

Installation:
drag and drop into you industrialcraft jar (needed because it changes some of the industrialcraft base files :/)

Version history:

• v1.0 initial release
• v1.1 fixed some errors with the heatdispenser
• added optional download for an example item
• fixed some heat dispenser bugs
• 1.1.0: upgraded to IC² 1.23
  

  
  

Credits:
Code 7Roses
also thanks to Drashian for looking into the code for possible errors

todo:
- a way of adding custom blocks and there cooling value to outside cooling (so not interacting heat with them)
- a way of exchanging heat with blocks who could accept/send heat.
- other suggestions are always welcome

ps.: it's my first mod for mc so please don't attack me if it doesn't work correct directly.

possible items you can add:

you need the CustomNuclearItems pack for every addon, this because it modifies the ic2's basecode of the reactor and also add some stuff to ic2
if you have made some custom items and want to post them send a message and I will add you custom item(s pack) to this post

Wow that is pretty cool: I am very excited about what other things may come of this!
I forsee much easier creation of perfect breeders with this
how much health (heat capacity) do each of the items have? is it 10 000 like the default items?

the iridiumNuclearItem pack uses the same default 10 000 heat points for an item, but everyone can create it's own items with custom damage values

and about your not error error I will add that into the OP so nobody will have to miss understand my anymore

nice but there will be little changes shortly,
because I found a bug into the indirect heat spreading pattern :s
but your design should work after that too
also those heat absorbing cells can't absorb heat out the hull only from other cooling items

nice idea, but should it be cooling itself ?
I think if it's has that amount of heat storage it is already a great addition,
and for the sprite -> I can't sprite so well so that was indeed a copy of the lavacell, but I will try to change the image (it did bother me too :p)

also that adv. heat absorber would it only exchange heat with plating and heat dispensers? or with other cooling elements to? (it would be a bit overpowerd if it did I think, so I'm currently programming it to only interact with platings and heatdispensers)

already coding it :p

love the use of eu for cooling idea,
and no I'm fine with getting idea's, I'm not so creative myself so you ideas will help to create items,
any idea if you want them as separate mods or added to another itemPack
next update of my op posts will contain the extended heat Pack (the heat absorb plate and the advanced heat sink will be into that) and the already existing Iridium Items pack.

umm could you possibly make a seperate pack including all my suggested items and the heat Absorber (I use it to craft things)
call it the "Enhanced pack" thanks

the Enhanced Heat Pack ? (heat because it's especially fixated on the heating of a reactor, not on extra energy/ uranium manipulations)

:p well nice to mention that design,
with next version it will be even possible to create more designs for breeders because the basic package will be able (if configured) to warm the reactor from the outside.
I know it will also create a cheat version of the Geothermal Generator if you have installed the Iridium Nuclear Items Pack

FourFire: can you send me some test results? then I can start reviewing the found bugs/adding new content.

function:
this item can when it gets heat transform this heat back to eu's
yea you read it good now even you heat is eu's worth.
(it only can transform 2heat points into 1eu every reactor tick so don't think this is magic)

this is the description of that element,
so you => every 2 damage of the item will be converted to 1 eu,
(if you use heat dispensers and manage the outward cooling to 0 then you nuclear reactor can function as a geotherminal generator and change very lavacell into 20k eu with the risk of blowing your reactor if you put to much of them at once :p)
