[Addon V1.112]Modular Force Field System Version 2.2.8.3.6 (SSP/SMP)

i make some test with the block cutter upgrade

i put some ores in the border of force field

next active the force field with upgrade (block cutter upgrade)

test world (see the minimap)

almost all item in (vanilla) are destroyed
furnaces
tables work and enchanted
musical box
pistons
hatch
doors (all)
dispenser
mobspanwner
nature
pressure plate
and more

except (chest, lamps of red stone , dragon egg)

@Thunderdark : you do something for the force field dont destroyed the rails

thank you for this great addon

You are awesome

Hi

i tested the beta4pre

this is the results (all work fine with the block cutter upgrade) , the wall and deflector same way and default force field (does what it is to do), and do some tests with the force field vs force field cutter mode work great dont destroy the other force field, one thing is a griefing issue, when the force field with the cuter mode touch one item inside the othe force field this is distroyed and appear in the chest (maxss explain this issue) and you working a new machine and upgrade for prevent that)

modulator deflector : accept distance modulator and reject streng modulador gui is wrong

modulator tube : accept both the gui is wrong

little suggestion :

subwater upgrade, make this dont destroy oil

other thing

all news are not good

this version have crash with secure station

this the config the secure station

and defence station

this video make some demostration of the crash (previously configure all, and use magic launcher for generate a random user )

or

pastebin

i do the test with beta3 and beta4pre

the beta3 secure station work fine i do the same thing explain above, see next imagen

this little video how make a gravity portal (portal gun mod) for testing some crash in the force field

when one of portal is placed in the moon and other is places in a iregular field, the second attracts all material in to inside, except (Bedrock and liquid) is you are attracts to him unto the center, you die in normal mode ( you dont die in the creative mode)

Gravity portal

i placed the gravity portal near to the wall of force field and wait a few minutes, the portal take a massive block of force field to inside when pass more time the game made slow, when you change the portal to other location ( you need 1, 2 or 10 attempts are made near to the wall and before placed portal far to the walls) the game crashes, you enter again you see leaft, sapling and unnamed block (force block) near the spot where was placed the gravity portal (i do some testing and drops change, more unnamed block or leaf or few of both)

i make the test in beta3 and beta4pre

the demostration of the crash

this crash log is to long for paste in the spoiler

pastebin

what do you thing about this issue ? it identical (crash log) to this post

Hello. I just
finished watching direwolf20’s mod spotlight on this mod. It looks excellent! I
can’t wait to try it on my server.

I have two
suggestions. First, I suggest you change the crafting recipe of the MFFS
Projector Sub-Water Upgrade to use a bucket of lava instead of a bucket of
water, because the lava will (representatively) evaporate all water in the
force field area. Second, (I am not sure if this is already implemented, as I
did not test it) I suggest you also the user to place a personal chest with ID
cards next to a MFFS Security Station with a MFFS External ID-Reader Add-on. This
way other, unauthorized players cannot place their ID card in the chest.

Misspellings
(based on screenshots in the recipes section): In some item/block names, there
are two spaces after “MFFS” instead of one (such as the MFFS generator EU injector). Throughout this mod,
in some places it is spelled projector, and in others it is spelled projektor.
While projector is the correct spelling, I am not sure if you intended to spell
it projektor to make it look kool. Please decide on one and make it the same
throughout this mod. Please begin sentences with a capital letter and end them
with a period. I have posted how the text at the beginning of your mod should
be written. Also, please make every item/block name (tooltip) have either only the first word (after MFFS) capitalized, or every word capitalized. Some items need dashes in words, such as Sub-Water and Add-On.

Finally, doesn’t
direwolf20 deserve a spot on the wall of bug hunters for discovering the bug
with the MFFS projector strength modulator not working in the MFFS modular projector?

Thank you for
taking the time to read this. Once again, great job, I hope you consider my
suggestions. I also hope you understand that all the spelling corrections are
constructive criticism, for the pure purpose of improving this mod.

Btw, I wrote
this entire message twice because I accidentally hit backspace and it took me
to the previous page in my browser, erasing my entire message At first
(after I raged) I was going to just ignore it and not re-write this. I decided
to re-write this, however, so you can make your mod better.

[Addon V1.97]Modular Force Field System
Version 2.0_Beta 3 (SSP/SMP/Bukkit)

Addon for IndustrialCraft 2 (1.97): The Modular Force Field System V 2.0

This is a complete re-write of my Modular
Force Field System Mod. I changed the whole concept to an item upgrade system (like the IC2 Overclockers, Storage Upgrades, and Transformer Upgrades) instead of multiple blocks. I removed the nuclear reactor force fields. I will be adding
a lot of SMP security features.

There will be
many updates in a short time. I am in the development phase; I publish new
features to test immediately.

Hi

i do some test with the projector strength modulator and synchorn capacitor, when you placed certain number of this (strength modulator) in the appropriate slot and use a synchorn give some message of warning (field to strong >= 5 blocks) this is normal, the problem is when you remove the strength modulator and turn on the projector the syncrorn display a message ( field to strong >= 5 blocks ) you dont a cross the force field you relogin the problems persists, need to put more distance modulator in the projector for a cross the force field or less for working, is weird issue (changes with each attempt) tested in ( beta 3 and beta4pre2)

little video to try explain weird issue

testing of Forcefield jammer upgrade (only is accepted by modulator sphere ) , i thing the modulator cube would have to operate with this upgrade but this is rejected
i do some test and the result is fine when the jammer is activated and other force field (other user ) touch your force field, the force field to the other user is destroyed and the project that disabled with smoke and drop the modules, the priority is given to first activate a force field the other activate after is destroyed.

little bad news when the other user have a cutter upgrade install, before the force field is destroyed have some destruction in your force field, in the worst case the force with the cutter upgrade can destroy the other project and the same time is jammer,

video for the issue (cutter upgrade)

the other, thing whe you configure the projector with strength modulator the item inside this force block can't be destroyed by the other force field with the cutter upgrade, i do some example with array of generator inside a force field with strength modulator,

video of the example

--------
the edges of force field (all configuration and modules ) destroy the liquid (tested in all version ) i think this issue is not big deal but is you make pool you do can't swim

There is already. Personal chest implemented on ic2 so adding that here would make it redundant.

So I admit that I am completely stumped trying to add this mod. I even went as far as decompiling the mod to find out the config entries so I could try creating a config but it still is not working.

I first installed the mod into the mods dir and it attempted to load but it is overlapping with some blocks in my IC2 install. The error I am getting is:

So I went looking for the config and found an empty file. Great. After decompiling and finding the config entries, I filled the file with this config:

But I am still getting the same error. It is like the mod is not seeing the config file. Does anyone have a config file that I can try to copy and modify?

As a side note, it appears that your block entries are hard coded defaults using getOrCreateIntProperty. Is it possible to use the auto-detecting getOrCreateBlockIdProperty, which would prevent these errors?

I have found so far the Sphere-Jammer upgrade in NEI.
So I set up a regular Sphere projector but it does not generate a force field any more. Even without the Jammer upgrade while the cube for example does at the same place.

Do I miss something?

Hello, I think I may have found some bugs in Beta4pre3:

First, the security station now seems to let anyone pass, even when there's no personal ID-card in it (only tested in Singleplayer, though).

Second, the new textures are missing the red dot on them while there's a modulator in the projector.

Cheers, Cakejoke

EDIT: I think it would be a good idea if the security ID-cards showed the respective player as a tooltip. Also, the force power generator could show its ID and all frequency cards linking to it could show the ID of the connected generator.

Quote from Thunderdark

is not a Bug is a feature

Ah ok, I thought that might be the case, but since I wasn't able to test it in SMP, I wasn't sure.

Quote from Thunderdark

fix in Beta4

Awww, no diamond for me?

Also, thanks for the update.

EDIT1: Back to bughunting: Although the ID-card coder says: "Not enough EU, please charge" when empty, it doesn't actually use any EU. (Beta4)

EDIT2: Aaand, although every broken force field block is immediately being replaced, tools still take durability damage. I don't know whether the blocks are intended to be breakable or not, though. But I guess it would make sense that tools lose durability while trying to smash through some kind of energetic force field...

Quote from Thunderdark

it use 1000 Eu per use

Hmmm, that's weird, because after I used it to encode about 7 cards (in SSP, so it might be a secret feature again) and put it into an MFSU with some energy in it, it didn't drain any. Also, the damage bar didn't go down while using it.

EDIT1: About misspelling: <Rang> in the generator upgrade needs an "e", so that it's <Range>.

EDIT2: Derp about ID-card coder: I didn't notice that it used the energy of my Lappack... BTW, is the synchron capacitor supposed to almost completely drain your Lappack in a single use? Would be cool if it could be set to not use Lappack energy, since it's quite annoying to have to charge your Lappack over and over.

Edited previous post, in case you didn't see it.

Has this been mentioned yet? The projector upgrade touch damage is not working in Bukkit. Actually, it doesn't seem to work at all...
