Thanks good sir and I'm happy for the fixes!!!! I hope quantium suit can get fixed someday

Forge does not auto correct some mods can and its bad you should correct by hand always. Anyways yeah not forestry or forge at fault just you <3

Upload v.27 to Github work on the camouflage issues
went through a few changes have save 50-60% Net traffic..

must contain the buffer overlow Bug..

continuing to work...

Now back onto Phailcraft. I'm watching you troll them And Big Thanks

Wonder when the emergency teleport will be added Uses insane amount of power maybe even a special fuel that's hard to make that will teleport you back to your bind one time use muhaha.

Thats all you really need to know about if "Realism" really matters or not in minecraft.

And come fucking on, we just got out of one Nuclear reactor revamp and you morons are pushing another one just to feel more "Realistic"?

Deal with it people, minecraft its composed of many magical blocks that do most of the "Realistic" actions behind the scenes. So just get into your tiny little heads that somewhere inside that "Nuclear Reactor block" there is a water tank and a turbine, the water will be heated by the uranium cells where it will produce steam where it will move the turbines to create EU, So technically speaking the uraniums cells do create EU its just that the devs never really bothered explaining in detail how the nuclear reactor works "Inside".

Also, ITS A STUPID GAME PEOPLE!, realism its often sacrificed to make room for more entertaining mechanics.

Edit: And did this really needed a new thread? I don't think so.

I have to agree with this. I see this a lot in another mod that I will not name here. Who gives a crap about RL.. I mean shit if its that important then step outside and get a frigan shovel lol. I would rather have sci-fi and less RL this and RL that. Let the devs spend 100 times more researching on what things are and a lot less coding would just be also silly

Suggesting some changes are fine say a recipe seems a bit fake but you have a better suggestion works but no point trying to make a REAL life simulator.

Thats a very good point! And it should be something you should ask yourself about your video, the valid claims you make in your video could be easily cut down to 2/3 Minutes the rest is useless sidesentences that don't add to anything you mentioned in the video whatsoever. Except for creating drama maybe.

I even made a TLDR: I agree they should communicate more. Thats the point where i agree with you. The rest i can't comment, i was usually satisfied with the delivered quality of IC.

I will admit and said it many times and not like a kid who says I can't spell but just saying I come off as an ass when I don't mean too. I will spend any second helping these guys test or whatever they need. I mean don't get me wrong I love their work and want to see things keep going and don't mind helping anyway I can. But i feel that more can be done and I was trying to share that in a video since I fail at typing as you can see reading this haha.

Anyways sorry if I miss understood it seem like you were just here to stab me and if you are that's fine but lets just keep this thread to ideas and suggestions on what could be improved and what we the community can think of ways of improving IC.

My biggest dream would be a public Jenkins. We take the risks you only have a RB for public release and we can help you fix them bugs from version to version and when you release the main RB its going be nearly bug free! After that I would say get a small team of active people not just 1 or 2 but 5-6 people who are dedicated testers, programmers and etc to keep and maintain a detailed bug spreadsheet and create a thread in the bugs section with known bugs and etc. This will help cut down some the bug reporting spam but also give a list of things people can follow and follow the progress of squishing them overtime.

Anyways I really should get some sleep it's 2pm and I have not had one single zzzz.

I noticed your whole thread was just a wall of text that said insult this insult that. Did you actually come here to add anything worthwhile to the discussion or did you feel this was a good time to brown nose? This not a thread of what you like to rate out a video but talking about you feelings about IC and its current state and hell if you like to suggest improvements and etc go ahead.

Quote from ElectroBot

I'm experiencing a buffer overlow also and it seems to be related to the camouflage add-on.

I think that's camouflage and nothing you can do about it Were stuck on version 22 because a few bugs after that and everyone has camouflage so I can't tell them to remove it hehe.

Yeah Alblaka I'm sometimes taken out of character really bad with the way I type and even speak. I type worse then I speak I guess is what I'm trying to say and I come off as an asshole but I'm one of those people who if you needed help with something I would do anything possible to make it happen or try when comes to helping people. It's past noon now and I have yet to sleep helping these devs test out ICBM and testing up a test server and the works. I only care about the future of the mods and want them to live on forever but also in the same way I got 200 little kids nipping at me feet asking for eta's and fixes and not knowing how to code I become pretty damn useless. The best I can try to do is provide the best bug reports I can and just hope for luck really.

Hell if I saw you in a bar right now right here I would not be asking about IC if that shows anything about my character. I respect your life and etc I just don't like how certain things are done with this public mod and just sharing my feedback where you feel like I'm actually trying to attack you. Like I said I sound like an ass but I'm not trying to be one that is just me

Ask the guys on Teamspeak

Quote from Alblaka

I stopped watching at 1:20, taking severe offense to the statement you made there.

I could go for pages over pages explaining my situation, but that does neither belong into this forum, nor the internet at all. To make it simple: IC is a hobby. Writing storys is a hobby. Gaming is a hobby. Developing pointless java programms is a hobby. I'm the type of person who feels himself drawn to random things at random times, I don't try to force myself into doing X, because it never ends well, but leads to the creation of crappy code, novels and frustration. Yes, I myself barely was active coding IC across the past ~2 months. I've somewhen wanted to come back into coding, but it was barely enough to create a new reactor concept.
Feel free to hate me for the way I am, you wouldn't be the first one.

Afaik player had mentioned some personal affairs currently eating up most of his time.
Richard is still hot on the heels and fixing quite a few bugs. That's why we (before this video popped up, to mention it), or rather he, suggested to do it similar to Computercraft, publishing untested beta-hotfixes on a public base. I'm still not very fond of the idea, because I exspect countless people to clutter the forum because of new bugs and similar issues. But hey, you guys asked for it, and who are we, who we spend plenty time on this for no real reason, to argue...

Lastly, it's impossible to kill IC by now. You can kil games by preventing people from repairing it's fixes and then screwing up the gameplay itself.
However, while I could possibly do latter on, former is impossible. Even if we were to stop developement of IC, people already have access to most of the source code and could continue/revive the mod.
As well, the same way you saw it with MeC, I will continue the policy of publishing the source code of 'abandoned' projects. Do you see IC²'s source around here? No? Guess why

PS: Moved to the appropriate section. General Discussion really is exclusively related to anything regarding the website or the forum as such.
PSPS: Whether you ask for a release date (of a hotfix) in written or verbal way, doesn't matter... though in the 80 seconds I watched he never did that explicitely. If somebody finds a line doing that, feel free to poke me at it.

Thanks for taking the time to watch the video. You seem to think the video was targeting you in a negative way and its not nor was it even targeting you against your skills and for the damn of it really did not matter if you were part of the team as in fact while making the video I kind of thought of Richard and Player only. I hate to say it but I have not felt you part of IC for a long time and consider it more of Players godly work these days. Now this is not me saying hey your an ass Player is the best lalala because that would be clearly wrong and not true. What I am saying is it seems that there is a tight chain on some of these poor guys helping you with IC. You have Richard and yes Player who has been busy and MIA and that is fine. I guess my biggest issue was why could Richard not public what he had done rather then wait a couple of months before player had more free time?

It actually in my honest opinion seems that instead your forcing player to feel bad for this community by making Richard and you say were waiting on player and he has some RL issues then saying here you guys go but there is a couple issues will need player to fix but that will come in the future we hope. Not only that some nice people might even PM Richard a source code change to fix a bug and then you guys win triple points.

From my point of view it seems like these poor guys are stuck waiting for their master when they should be free. I mean come on take 10 minutes and try your own mod in SMP and then come back here and tell us if you were satisfied or you went into shock. Again this happens bugs happen and yes this is the worst release I have experienced but it did not mean half the bugs that Richard had fixed could not have been given out to the rest the community to satisfy them. I mean instant server crash no more playing again is what the current state is.

Anyways I have donated more then once to this project and if I had the money right now I would still donate as long as I knew Richard and Player were getting part of it. But you know what Alblaka. This thread was not about you it was actually about IC.

Thanks,
Kane

the cost related to the count of ForceFieldblock not the protected space

64x64x64 = 262,144 blocks protected
64*64*6 = 24576 ForceField Blocks

32x64x64 = 131,072 blocks protected
((64*64)*2) + ((64*32)*4) == 16384 ForceField Blocks

16x64x64 = 65,536 blocks protected
((64*64)*2) + ((64*16)*4) = 12292 ForceField Blocks

8x64*64 = 32,768 blocks protected
((64*64)*2) + ((64*8.)*4) = 10240 ForceField Blocks

That makes a lot more sense to the math I was going to actually ask about that. Also it sucks in a way for me but it does make sense.

Also just to let you know 26 still has buffer overflow for me in SMP.
I
was a bit confused on this one so I will stop reporting it till I see
something about it since I think you might already know this I was not
sure but hehe I don't want to be a pester.

Nonsense, I'm not rewriting my mod from scratch. I'm just rewriting MCP from scratch.

(And I'm only half kidding about that.)

LOL, Well it was a good mod but yeah had to many issues and really serious issues. But I'm more then happy to give it a try when its release and let you know if it has issues. GregTech sort of added a seed scanner now that I kind of use.

Quote from Thunderdark

have you also considered that the force field during activation use 10 time more Energy ?

I will look closely at have more time...There are enough construction sites

This is way after its been activated I know how to do a proper test hehe. I'm just saying your math does not seem to actual equal protected space so if it's 8 times smaller it seems to only reduce in half a little more from my tests Do you want a video =) ?

Since my typing skills fail and I come off as a total asshole at times I decided to make a video. Please note that most my viewers are younger people and will prob just act like silly people in the comments and ratings since they have no clue whats up so don't bother replying to their silliness hehe.. This not to be an ass or flame this is just from the heart of a mod I love a lot.

for all who are more courageous new Version to time up to 2.1.7.0.26

https://github.com/Thunderdark…orceFieldSystem/downloads

You never commented on my detailed post about power scaling. Is it intended to be so costly or was there a small math error?

It says "
+CABLES ONLY GHOST FIX (with MAJOR side effects!!!)" Does this mean that this fix has some bugs or bad side effects? It sounds negative in the thread but not sure.

Nice Rawcode keep it up!

I found some odd power usages and I thought I share them with you:

Usage 635 EU/t (64x64x64 = 262,144 blocks protected)

Usage 380 EU/t (32x64x64 = 131,072 blocks protected) This seems a bit odd since it has 32 upgrades just like the cube above accept using more then half the EU but half the size.

Usage 320 EU/t (16x64x64 = 65,536 blocks protected) This is getting strange hehe.

Usage 250 EU/t (8x64*64 = 32,768 blocks protected) This is unfair I'm using 8 times less protection but a little less then half the power

Quote from Thunderdark

take 2

Thanks that would work!

Don't know why there is a wall of text. This is a 30 second job in the source. No need to say more
