IC2 Expermental Feature Discussion

We seem to ba having an isue with the scanner: I've been succesfule in scanning Cobble, sand, and gravel, but everythign else keeps telling me "!! Error !!" It's getting old actually. I've irritates my fellow workers by killing the house's EU power on a few occasions (MFE fed by 8 geo-gens supplied via the nether.) I've scanned obsidian more then 23 times in a test world and keep getting that message from the scanner.

Is there a list of what it will and will not accept?

Iridium was no issue however.

I take it obsidian is not on that list? how about iron?

Does the error message in the scanner mean it's not scanable?

edit: NM, scanned it. Unfortunetly this mean that nether stars are not scanable
edit 2: we are using 2.0.336

you can get complete list from source code.

also i posted mod sometime ago that open all recipes by default, you can find it if you want.

i will update it to latest version and post again soon.

Any word about forge multipart support in future of IC?

Quote from Chocohead

No one really supports it as you'd probably need to replace every cable like Thermal Expansion's conduits.

Sorry but what you mean by that?

Quote from Chocohead

When Thermal Expansion got multi-part support you had to break and replace every energy conduit, fluiduct and item duct in your world(s). No one realistically wants that with all their IC2 cables when we have CF foam and obscurators which hides cables sufficiently.

1.7 is gonna be a good time to do anything that would encourage starting over anyway, given the amount of new worldgen being added to the base game.

Quote from Chocohead

We've still got CF Foam though, it seems unnecessary to replace something that is already fine.

There's no need to replace it, as much as add the additional functionality. As far as replacing existing cabling,
is that not a caveat of using an experimental version- that things may change in the interest of progress at any time?

I can appreciate if the devs simply don't want to do so, but I always like when mods play nice together,
and those that can do so usually give the impression of being more polished, useful, and solid.

Is there way to disable quantum armour craft recipe or make
quantum armour
crafting impossible?

I think that we should also make a compatibility between hoppers and Induction Furnaces:
The problem is not that we cannot add in the two slots: you can add more hoppers. The problem is that we cannot remove in the two slots at the same time, because you can only add a hopper at the bottom (or maybe I'm wrong, and I don't make a good use of the hoppers).

Don't use hoppers for automation when superior means are available.

?
Which ones?

Any mod with pipes?

Is BC able to take from the two slots at once?

Yes, provided that you can extract the items faster than the induction furnace smelts them.
