[Suggestion] Partcicle effects

  • Hello, It will be cool if you put some particle effects on the glass fibre cable, like in buildcraft but more cooler 8) .
    Also, make different particles when it's a low voltage, when its medium voltatge and when there's a huge ammount of voltatge :)


    Thanks, TheArni.

  • Useless. Don't compare BC and IC². Laggy.
    In a more friendly way: what would be the point of creating a little particle effect --> more lag for something you rarely look at, because once your setup are done, you just have to maintain it ?


    Soon with Molten Salt Reactors, right ? :D

  • Well, appart of the the cool looking thing, it might be useful if you don't know if there's a big voltage or not. You can save some transformers and batboxes... xD

    First: EU-reader is very cheap ^^.
    Twice: it would be right if the particle effect was depending on the Voltage, but it would be more probably depending on the EU/t flow, so ... it wouldn't count packet ^^ --> Wouldn't save anything.

  • So... this will be useless? Hm... I thought it would be nice... D:


    EDIT: and if you put some particles when you breack a cable whit current? Like sparks? It would be useless, but really nice. Also, a chance of getting damage... LOL?

  • I didn't say it wouldn't be nice. But it would cause a little more lag for something that is just "funny" ...

  • Perhaps adding a config : Particles : True/false ? (false removes cables the suggested "electricity" particles and macerator particles)

    Yes, good idea for who doesn't have a good computer and for who has an amazing computar and wants more cool things ;)

  • I would like to see something like this incorporated, would give it .... sort of a 'hands on' feel. However, like mentioned before, a config would be necessary for those that don't like the features/cause lag on their computers.
