Suggestion. Scuba gear

Raging Industrialist · November 10, 2011 at 11:50 PM

Almost everybody hates how short your time underwater can be without torches. For those who want a much longer time under (but not infinite ) there is da ta dummmm!!!!! Scuba gear! You craft it out of rubber hose and an air tank. It allows you to actually explore the underwater (or under lava, for the suicidal) realm!
Suggested recipes.
Air Tank

=tin ingot

rubber hose (You can use this to A. water crops. B. put out fires. C. Turn lava into cobble/obsidian. D. Spray at creepers for some fun. E. crafting.

=rubber ball.

Breath mask

= headgear of some kind

= rubber ball.

Scuba Gear

=air tank

= rubber hose

= breath mask

The Air tank will automatically fill up (slowly, and not fully) as you walk around on land.
To fully refill the tank, put it in a refilling unit.
Recipe

= refined iron

= rubber hose

=compressor

You can make an advanced scuba gear like this.

= adv. circuit

= scuba gear

= air tank

= glass

This will not only hold twice as much air as a normal piece of scuba gear, but it will also tell you how deep you are and illuminate the area around you! No more glowstone!

He was using the Quantum Helm image as a place holder for the scuba gear.

for the **th time? really?
sorry for being so rude, but it's been on forum several times just last month alone

I believe he's pointing to the fact that the quantum helmet already does this.

Fell into this one myself. its not exactly widely advertised but the q helmet does do it. although sometimes i'm wearing it and it doesn't work...

This.

I would quite like a tier1 scuba helmet: Short battery life, gives ONLY water breathing (doesn't fill the food bar).

Being fed by the Qhelmet feels too much like cheating.

Thinking on that. Is it a bug, or is it intended to have the food fill only to 9?

It fills only to 9 so you'll regenerate health but you can eat actual food still and save power.

Ah, that explains it.

However, all of you probably know how expensive quantum armor is (unless you are TMIing). This is meant to be a cheaper alternative to the qhelmet. It does not protect or refill the food bar.

The Quantum Helmet is actually the easiest part to make in the set. One diamond, 10 lapis, 16 redstone and two glowstone, the rest is mundane. The harder part, of course... is charging it - and that requires an MFSU which is not inexpensive in the least.
