Suggestions, a lot of.

1st Official Post

    Hello! I'm here just to post this text. It's the list of items I'd like to see in IC2 to complete my spaceship. I hope you'd like at least one of my ideas, even if they were posted before.


    Also sorry for my English %)



    Part 1: pretty useless stuff.


    1) Lightbulb
    It's a new type of lamp made of several glass blocks, iron ingot and the cheapest wire. It works just like luminator but doesnt't have inner accumulator and produce as much light as possible (like an electric cousin of the excellent redstone lamp). It's not funny if you want to turn all these luminators off!


    2) What about new types of wrenches? Refined iron one is twice more indestructible as bronze, and the other made of that nice alloy could be 3x better. Of course it doesn't make them faster. :Wrench:



    Part 2: Second life of the frequency transmitter.


    3) Switch
    Place one on the block, place button or something on that block or even on the switch, connect wires to another one, and then use frequency transmitter on both. Now if you push the button attached to the first one the second will emit a redstone signal. Very useful, I think. It also may have a limited range (15 blocks is enough). Just like teleporter for 0 and 1. I don't know much about good recipes because usually play in Creative.


    4) Quantum transmitter
    If you can make quantum armour, why don't use iridium for making wires? Connect them with FT and they'll teleport low volts (and medium, please!) from one to another allowing you to build nice house without extreme perforation and with thin walls. It's not excellent for Survival but if you play Creative you are allmighty. So why not? :]



    Part 3: more quants!


    5) Quantum generator
    It absorbs energy from outside and doesn't need any fuel to produce as much safe and clear energy as nuclear reactor (like upgraded windmill). This technology needs tons of iridium and other best components. I think it's good even for Survival. Why not?


    6) Quantum sword
    The nanosaber upgraded with iridium and other stuff. It absorbs energy from killed monsters and can share it with any other item.


    7) Quantum bomb
    It's range is smaller than TNT's but it can destroy even bedrock (2kk damage).


    :Matter: GF :Matter: <- glass fibre
    :Matter: :Nuke TNT: :Matter:
    :Matter: :Matter: :Matter:




    I think all these ideas were posted somewhere before but I hope you'll add something from that list to the IC2. Items 1, 3 and 4 are my favourite.

    7) Quantum bomb


    It's range is smaller than TNT's but it can destroy even bedrock (2kk damage).

    You do know that explosives only make use of their blast power value?
    An explosion with a power of 10 will do a max damage of 10 to surrounding blocks. Basically, each block has a explosion resistance. Let's say you put that bedrock-TNT in there, you would blow up entire MC world.
    As, explosion resistance is:

    Code
    Bedrock 
 18,000,000


    seeing a normal world, it would kill 7200000 dirt blocks, or 600000 Stone blocks. Or 3000 Enchantment tables for that matter.


    So it could be extremely usefull :D





    No.

    Let me suggest something too ;)

    1) Lightbulb

    Lightning rod, yea ;)
    When present in inventory under open sky make it rain.
    When under rain, make it thunderstorm.
    When under storm, make lightning fires at player.
    When lightning come fully charge up all batteries, armor, tools, anything up to sonic screwdriver; player still dead.

    2) What about new types of wrenches?

    Yes, we need it different! Let us color a wrench to make it better. Some wrench should be used to turn some machine to north, some - to open nuclear reactor, some - to dig dirt in hope to find lost long ago :Wrench:

    3) Switch

    It's so hard to place RS wiring right, we should change mining laser behavior. If laser shoot button or lever, block do not destroyed, but switched as manually.

    4) Quantum transmitter

    Yes, hand held tool to send EU in the desired direction. You can send as much as you want. Reciever not needed though.

    Quote

    5) Quantum generator

    Oh that transdimensional thing! It adsorb EU from anything around: cables, batteries, machines, even your quantum suit. Where those EU transfered to still unknown.

    6) Quantum sword

    As most of us know quantum effect it is never known, which side this sword would damage. Also at which time it would decide to be in which inventory or hands. Quantum behavior is so unpredictable.

    Quote

    7) Quantum bomb

    But this one should be predictable to the maximum. It store person, who place it, and jump in it's inventory when blown.


    Want more?

    Welcome to the forums,


    1) There are lamps(and a bunch of other cool(er) stuff) in a mod called Redpower 2, you should use it
    2) Electric variant of the wrench already exists, no need for another types
    3) Actually sounds decent
    4) No magic blocks for IC2. Nuff said.
    5) and 6) Tier IV has already been shot down, so nope.
    7) Put 20 nukes in a pile, that should make a hole large enough. Anyone propably doesn't want to destroy the entire minecraft world.
