The question isn't about the poles, but about the way the laser-connections in between them are meant to be animated, rendered and calculated.

Spontanously decided to rework Luminators as a temporary solution, turning them into custum-rendered neon pipe-like things.
Will stick to ground, wall, ceiling, only to solid blocks or fences/cables.
Any other exception for non-solid blocks they need to stick to, i've forgotten? -
Selfrecharge on nano hit? What?
Mind elaborating this point more, there is no sort of selfrecharge on either side intended upon usage of nano sabre. -

Nope, we dont need another tier :O

Block-based laser fences are definitely possible. Would need some advanced concept though, to make them more CPU effective then the standard implementation, given players would use them frequently.

I already said a couple of times now, i will not implement an automatization machine for that single purpouse.

On my install Mining Drill doesn't give off any sounds at all o.o
Help! Somebody fix that please!
Wait a sec... damnit.

Tell me how you want to compress an unlimited number of maps into a single value from -32000 to 32000 and i will do it.

Depending on the sort of laser animation you want to have (moving beam, glowing translucent thingy, block) ranges from possible to impossible.

IS Crippling when you try to build a factory
Known, not yet fixed. -
Blocks: gravel, sand*, fire, leaves, coal ore**, clay block**, diamond ore**, uranium ore**, ice***, tall grass, dandelion, rose, brown and red mushrooms, cactus, sugar cane, wool, vines, lily pad.
Gravel: Why?
Sand: Macerate cobble
Fire: No, Haxblock
Ores: No, Haxblock
Ice: Compress snowballs
Tall Grass: No, Haxblock
flowers = use bonemeal with UUM'd bones
cactus, sugar cane, wool, vines: Valid, will be added
Lily Pad: Wth is that? -
Thanks for setting some of this information straight. Apologies for asking an additional question here, but is/was (in case a change is in the works) any truth to the assertion that the daylight check cause(d) excessive server lag in large arrays? Or was that another cause (the chunk stuff, maybe) ?
Daylight checks theoretically could have causes a minimal CPU spike all 128 frames (6 secodns), which of course, if there are thousands of Solar Panels at once, could cause a valid CPU-spike.
The algorythm was redone and uses a static variable stored in the MC lightmap now, thus after 1.30 Solar Panels should be less CPU intensive. Dunno whether it will fix the whole Server-lag issue, though, as i'm not sure whether it's the cause.Never used a wind mill, have you? Placed at the build limit, a wind mill will generate about 30% more EU/t during the day - and it keeps working at night. It's just a little harder to set-up.
Let me ask you something: Is it somehow MORE fun for you if your machines don't work as well? I have yet to understand the mindset of people who make recommendations that don't solve the issues but only introduce inefficiency and misery to the equation.
Hint: In 1.8 standard maximum height is 255. -

Improved Painter (req. Lead)Except for the Hazmat Suit i can't see a single new idea that would actually fit in and complement IndustrialCraft.
And actually the Hazmat/Rubber Suit is on our list since the implementation of rubber.Sorry for smashing you down like that, but everything you listed would rather fit into a "Rinvaleks Mo' Iron Tools" mod then IC, given noone will waste any iron on stuff like a Iron Bow if he can instead build machines and grab a Mining Laser.

Mirrors? Uhh... i think it COULD be possible, given you write a accordingly complex renderer. But yes, per default it could be possible without modifying Minecrafts baseclasses.
Don't dare to ask, this would be REEEEALLY advanced graphic engineering.. a think i've got no clue of. -
Too mention the obvious:
No. -
MeCs Illusion Blocks, anyone? :3
The idea of glass mimic'ing a different texture is neat.

Just use the other thread, please.
