[1.95b][SSP, SMP][Version 1B Hotfix] Mo' Drills, If you havent got that Diamond yet

Viper283 · May 12th 2012

For all you people out there who feel there aren't enough drills in industrial craft, i have made MO' DRILLS
This is the first addon i have tried to create for industrial craft and it has not been tested yet so therefore it has no pictures.
Just realised i Forgot to add the config file

The added drills are:
Iron Drill
Gold Drill

The crafting recipe is as follows:
-X-
X#X
---
X = iron or gold
# = mining drill
- = Nothing

The drills function in the same way as the normal drills but have the durability of iron and gold tools
If something doesn't work or you would like to add other items please tell me below
To install the client just put the downloaded zip into the mods folder
To install the server just put it in the mods folder that is created when forge the server is run for the first time

Download is also below

Nice idea But i must say i already have Cool mod and when you want you can make something like a fuel powerd drill.. i think that would be cool So for this mod.

No iridium drill? I am disappoint. No offense though.

metalearza · May 13th 2012

I think the iron drill is not necessary because it's strong as iron to begin with.. And the gold's duraBility is weaker than iron, does that mean the gold drill will be discharged faster?

Viper283 · May 13th 2012

all very good ideas, the iron drill will be changed to iridium since there is no point having it and the gold drill will have the same speed as gold but the same amount of uses as the normal drill, i <3 Ic2 and i didn't know that there was iridium lol

Do we really need Iridium Drills though? The Diamond Drill cuts through just about everything like butter already.

Iridium drill could be like bioshock2 drill and do obscene damage to enemies as well, just a thought

Yes you are correct i only recently started this addon so i say that any type of tool that has any form of uses has "uses", if in this case that EU, vis (thaumcraft), MegaJoules (buildcraft), or any other type of energy system has tools that has a build up of energy it still has a certain number of uses untill it needs to be recharged

here is a use for the gold drill make it enchant-able(gold is the most magically conductive material in minecraft)
as for the iron drill you know that the miningdrill is already made out of refined iron right?
how about a coal fueled bronze drill?

Gold drills sound neat, if useless. Gold has the mining power of wood, and less durability. The real upshot of gold is that it's good for enchanting. But that's hard to represent. Another use for gold is as a conductive material, which is also kinda hard to represent. So why not have gold dig slower, but dig all blocks surrounding it, and have more EU storage then normal drills? A balance would be to have it work at wood power(can't mine iron ore and above), so it would be more of a large scope drill.

As for the idea of a Iridium drill, making it a combat ready diamond drill would be awesome. Just make sure it can mine anything diamond can drill, at a higher speed. I mean, a diamond drill is fast, but once you're mining obsidian, you want more speed no matter what. Making it about as powerful as a actual vibrosaber(or whatever they are called, never made one myself) would make sense.

Though for a added treat, try to add the Iridium drill to the drills which can be used by the miner. As powerful as diamond, but faster and slightly cheaper.

How about an iridium drill that drops dusts instead of ore blocks for anything that can be macerated, possibly with an extra one now and then...

Dimondisnice · Jun 21st 2012

Make a badass drill that shoots nukes but doesnt damage the player but the blast radius a little less op than the normal nuke it would be awesome

immibis · Jun 23rd 2012

No upgrading drills?

Viper283 · Jul 3rd 2012

i recently had to do a system restore on my computer losing all my work on the addon, i shall start working on this again once industrialcraft2 has updated to at least 2.0 in the mean time i am working on a standalone mod called VirtualCraft

The mod looks great but when you start up the game it crashes with an error report saying that it couldnt add a crafting recipe.
