[Suggestion] Lightning Rods

    I got tired of lightning burning up my wooden houses and charging up creepers so I came up wth this idea. Basically, edit the lightning class of Mnecraft and making lightning appear more in Swamps, Taigas and Forests and less in Plains, desserts and snowy biomes. You place a lightning rod higher than any tree/object in the area and when lightning strikes, the lightning rod gets EV from the lightning. The EV can: be put into a HV transformer to an MFSU or directly to GND. The Lightning Rod recipie can be something like this:


    :Refined Iron::Metal Block::Refined Iron:


    :Refined Iron::Metal Block::Refined Iron:


    :Refined Iron::Metal Block::Refined Iron:


    Is this suggestion possible? If so, it is very useful to make energy out of lightning and prevent lightning infernoes.


    And the GND cable something like this:


    :Tin Dust: :Copper Ingot: :Tin Dust:


    :Copper Ingot: :Copper Ingot: :Copper Ingot:


    :Tin Dust: :Tin Dust: :Tin Dust: .

    Every Mod Author, in existence. And yet, you STILL say otherwise.

    Looks like job for the epic quote once again.

    I never see why people think there houses burn down in lightning. It's raining people! The rain puts out the lightning!
