Good god. Who would need that?

Algo, apparantly
I wonder how much lag it actually creates... These are ALL tileentities and they are updated EVERY TICK. So, if it even has just a simple Math.sqrt() (and nothing else), it would create SO MUCH lag that you don't even guess.

EDIT:
I'm going to take a break from modding for this weekend. I'm feeling a little bit burned out, so I need to play the game in order to get modding interest back (and some new ideas too).
Hopefully I won't become Eloraam N2.

Even though it is not LS-related, just a random pic that impressed me :O

Apparantly, that requires ALOT of quartz... Like two billion tons of it.

Quote from Kirarara

I have a problem. I'm using ASP 3.3.7, but I rather expect the problem exists irregardless of the version I use:

Iridium is a required component in Easy and Hard modes.

Iridium comes from GregTech. I do not have GregTech installed on my server, nor do I desire to install it.

I am unable to legitimately craft Hybrid and Ultimate Hybrid solar panels.

What do?

Edit: Rather, sans GregTech I apparently have Iridium Ore (mined form) but not the ore block itself... So I must use UUM to generate my Iridium? :C When did this become a thing.

Since Alblaka said that Iridium will be required for crafting of new (as of IC2) Quantum Suit.

Quote from Sartarius

Hi at all.

I'm new in the forum.
Every time I try to start the game I get this error log

Display Spoiler

-- crashlog snipped --

Any ideas what happend?
I'm using the latest version of the mod and the latest version of IC2 exp.
The old version 0.9.9 worked fine for me so I think its something with the new version.

Oh, NPE. Okay, gonna fix and upload newer version...

EDIT: Hmm... apparently it is not happy with this line:

if (clazz.getCanonicalName().equals(ADV_RECIPE_CLASSNAME)
					|| clazz.getCanonicalName().equals(
							ADV_SHAPELESS_RECIPE_CLASSNAME)) {

.. weird. Really weird.

Thats ... just sadistic. Gold is ridiculously rare

It's not when you know where to look for it.
... or you're having a terrible luck finding it?

So, here's basic description for Particle Accelerators:
https://github.com/mak326428/L…wiki/Particle-Accelerator

EDIT:
New TEST version, which means that a lot of bugs are there.
Let's recap what's new:
1. BUGS.
2. New bugs.
3. Exceptions.
4. Unexpected bugs.
5. New features.

Quote from hoho

Why so? I was hoping to get a decent replacement for BC quarries :\

It's just not worth doing so. It'll just be a lot of brainf**king, which I'm not ready for. I'll be asking IC2 dev team to provide API for miners, so e.g. custom drills & scanners might get added to IC2's miner, having different range and speed.
Ah, what the heck, Greg, add that API.

Matt:
It DOES ABSOLUTELY consume energy. Currently, ~500k EU for one operation.

Quote from AtomicStryker

Ejector is working exactly as advertised.

Version 5.2.3
ditched refined Iron Dust since refined Iron no longer exists
additive macerating can still produce bronze dust and hydrated coal dust
added new additive recipes: 1 Nether Quartz Ore + 1 Sand = 2 Quartz; 1 Netherrack + 1 Redstone = 2 Glowstone Dust

Second additive recipe seems to be OP.

Quote from SpwnX

Not much different from what forestry electric engines are atm. [those does not connect to IC network due something API related]

Oh, thank you, SpwnX, I forgot that Forestry has Electric Engines!
I currently have some problems with BC in my 1.6.2 world... Now, I guess, I don't!

Quote from master801

Quick teaser for those who care.

Erm... Where's teaser? I see just three missing textures and nothing else.

Quote from TuxedoSteve

They can duplicate any item that has IV (item value), you will need the equivalent amount of IV to make a new item, as well as a ton of energy.

Yes, that's exactly the gist.

EDIT: Oh, these machineitemstackadding thing is a nightmare... You need to check for such a ton of things before adding ONE item to the output slot to prevent dupes/simple disappearing of items.. I must write an utility class for it, because, like i said, it's horrible... ~1000 lines of code just for that purpose and a ton of brainf**king.

EDIT 2: IT WOOOOORKS!

And it does PERFECTLY!
And i didn't notice any bugs in it! That's awesome!

It's an amazing mechanic, you'll like it in future. At least I definetely will!

EDIT 3: I'm going to do some spadework, clean up recipes (since new IC2 has Small power units), review EItems tiering, remove Advanced Miners and do all that boring manual stuff.

So, Particle Accelerators are coming along pretty nicely.
I've implemented two modes for it:
1) Antimatter Production. Does what it sounds like.
2) Matter Reshaping. It uses already existing items and "reuses" its IV to create other items.

Requires ENORMOUS amounts of energy.

EDIT:
Some GUI screenshots:

EDIT 2: following current conversion, 1 iridium ore = 16 diamonds = 64 gold. Is that balanced or not? I could bump it up, if needed. Like maybe 2 times?
EDIT 3: I might want to drop off Advanced Miners. Making it work just won't cost effort doing so. Superconductors I will fix however.
EDIT 4: commited.. https://github.com/mak326428/L…56dca0b2b38e352de16b08e41
5 days.. Almost 4 thousand lines of code. Isn't that productive?

Quote from Chocohead

I still play my 1.2.5 and 1.4.7 worlds more than any other version. Always have done. Your inferior 401-if is no match for my 1.95b and 331-if!

RedPower?

Quote from FrozenElite30

Eh, What are the meanings of EMCish and DynEMCish?

Well, since I'm pretty close to finish with my RecipeParsing (analogy of which pahimar is writing for about.. half-a-year now...), I'll tell what it is:
IV (which stands for Item Value) is assigned to as much items as possible (ideally about ~40% items should have it), and represents how worthy that item is.
Have you played EE2? If you did, you understand what I am getting at.
That's about IVSystem itself. Now onto how you will be able to use it [in future]:
I am going to add a Particle Accelerator.
It will have two mods: antimatter production & items duplication (which is balanced, you'll understand why it is in future).
Here is all the spoilers for now.

So, I feel like I played enough (almost got quantum, but my armor's recipes are cruel.. way to go), and it's time to get to dev.
My plans for today: add HUD for armors/other EItems in inventory & Enhanced NanoChestplate (NanoChestplate + Enhanced Lappack).
I have nothing for now, let's see how I make out!

EDIT 2: I implemented HUD (you can turn off it in the config) and am planning to actually embody the Particle Accelerators.

EDIT 3: Working on IV (i will tell you later what it is, kind of EMCish thing, more like DynEMCish)

Quote from GregoriusT

This only applies to space which has been made empty. If it was empty in the first place, then nothing happens as that subchunk doesnt exist. But in case of your Quarry I guess that was another Problem, like flowing Water killing your FPS.

You don't know how much you helped me, Greg. Thanks!
I was always wondering what was killing my FPS. I always blamed IC2 ENet and AE's Grid, but now i know that was flowing water.
BTW, by "subchunks" you mean ExtendedStorageSomething[]?

Quote from LinusPhoenix

Using all of those mods in my workspace as well as looking into its source code? This I like.

Yes, but without seeing their source code.

Quote from fireman1x

Huh? Whats That?

It's a MystCraft symbol that augments ore amount in MystCraft Ages.

Quote from Chocohead

Less empty space? I remember in 1.2.5 empty space killed my fps near lots of finished quarries. No idea if that still happens though

Nay, doesn't seem like it. Following this logic, in MystCraft Void Ages we should get ~0 FPS, however I get ~150 even with ~400 tileentities there. I kind of grasp what direwolf says about Void ages being perfect for massive factories/workshops.

EDIT:
Let me tell you: IC2_experimental is an awesome fork of previously stagnant IC2. While being a bit more complex, it is still fun to play. I've been sceptic, but now I changed my opinion. IMHO, Thunderdark and Player did a great job on it. Thank them so much!

Quote from LinusPhoenix

Then something messed that up, because it isn't. The Shears have a durability bar which gets depleted by the current dummy method but there is no tooltip when hovering over its icon. Also, the tool is destroyed when its durability is depleted.
I took a quick look at IC2's coding of the ElectricWrench and did not notice a significant difference or any methods which hint that I have forgotten something.

And good too see Greg joining the mortals

EDIT: The second problem has most likely to do with me messing around with the methods of ItemShear, so nevermind. The only problem is the Tooltip.

Quote from LinusPhoenix

Ah, so that's why it doesn't show when testing it in my workspace. Thanks for your help you two
