[Addon v1.43] Solar Helmet - now with SMP! [v2.5]

RichardG · Nov 16th 2011

Requested by many. Just make a solar helmet and wear it, and it'll recharge your batpack or electric jetpack at 1 EU/t (or 9 if you're wearing an advanced one) while you're under sunlight.

Download v2.5 Client
Download v2.5 Server
Download v2.5 Bukkit

Testers needed: If you are recharging a batpack/e-jetpack/lappack using a solar helmet on a server and got kicked for overflow or the numbers are out of sync, PLEASE tell me, so I can code a better sync method using Packet230s.

As of v2.0, you can put the mod straight on the mods folder.

Changelog:

Display Spoiler

You craft a solar helmet like this:

And upgrade one:

After you wear it, you'll definitely look hayoish:

I knew someone would do this eventually. Looks cool, hopefully you can get some screenshots up!

a way to not edit any base class files is make it a hat that extends itemarmor, with all the energy regen stuff in the hat class file

Pushed v1.1. It can now charge the batpacks from Rocket Science, but I didn't test charging them.

It is a good start - I will be watching this mod for further developments.

RichardG · Nov 16th 2011

Pushed v1.2. Unfortunately no quantum/nanosuit support - Alblaka's giveEnergyTo is weird. I also restricted charging to jetpacks/batpacks again due to an exploit.

RichardG · Nov 16th 2011

v2.0 is coming. You now get to make solar helmets.

EDIT: Released.
EDIT2: Released v2.0a - I didn't include the armor texture, facepalm

Pretty cool besides the fact that there is no smp. Expecially the copy-into-mods-folder install
but the lack of SMP turned me off. sorry. I would have otherwise loved this.

RichardG · Nov 16th 2011

v2.1 ahead, with SMP! I figured out how to.

Alblaka · Nov 16th 2011

*rofl*
Steve + Solar Helmet looks epicly amusing :3
Like... kinda dunno, just funny

I'm still working on SMP, however OnTickInGame is not triggering for me on the server side - I tried asking #risucraft but no response... any ideas?

Code

Initializer:
ModLoader.SetInGameHook(this,true,false);




OnTickInGame:
public void OnTickInGame(net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer game) {
... do stuff ...
}

HeadHunter67 · Nov 16th 2011

HAYO! Now, that's what I've been waiting for! I'm gonna go make one of these right now!

F4113nb34st · Nov 16th 2011

your error would be due to the fact that there is no "onTickInGame" function on the server side modloader class, however I forgot how to bypass that complication

Ranakastrasz · Nov 16th 2011

Alright, This is What we have been waiting for! The Best headgear in teh universe!

Now all we need is higher Tier versions, with 8 and 64 cells respectively, around a nanohelmet and a quantum helmet XD

HeadHunter67 · Nov 17th 2011

I love love LOVE this thing! I put it on when I'm outdoors and my batpack charges up very nicely!

This is pure win.

Once these issues are resolved, I'm downloading the mod!

He forgot how to fix it. I was trying to fix that issue with nallar, but he disappeared (ping timeout from IRC)

No, but it bears repeating for the sake of win.
