I guess electric items weren't even supposed to have silk touch enchants...

Electrolyzer recipe : 18 * 1000 = 18000 EU
Electric Crafting : 3 * 1900 = 5700 EU
Automatic Compressor : 800 EU
Total in EU : 38900Stuff Required
Pulverizer (TE)

Advanced Tools. Still hopping for Iridium-to-Q-Suit replacement (since it can't be get as a byproduct of *common* ores

Btw ... no Molten Salt, Thorium-based Reactors ?

I also thought of a MutliblockStructure, that would act as a Giant Transformer/Energy Storage Unit/External expensive upgrades for machines: That could be made out of LESU, Machine Casings and would, depending on the scheme you're using, store energy, increase efficiency/speed for some machine, and act as a x*y*z (because I don't know how big it should be, I think 3*3*6 would be nice) transformer that would directly feed machines with the right amount of EU WITHOUT ANY PACKET-RELATED ISSUES, meaning each packet coming in would just go into the internal storage, and that each machines connected to it [or to some specials blocks on its structure](not MassFabs, for some obvious reasons ... and btw, machines having their own machine casing wouldn't fit with that ^^) would drain EU from it without any packet-related code ... Just because I think that's be cooler than using cables, and because I dislike making uggly/strangely shaped net just to avoid EU-losses ...
A Machine "control center", in other words?

i am considering keeping the plasmarite gem in with no world gen or crafting options. as a debug tool... infinite power with transfer rate of 100000eu/t into an mfsu... but i think someone else is working on a debug tool in another project so do you guys think its worth me keeping it as a debug item?
Not worth. There are several "debug tools" already.
GT debug scanner, Gravisuit quantum generator, Adv. Power management Adjustable Emitter...Keep plasmarite as a very rare gem which doesn't need anything but itself to generate some power (15-45 Eu/t)

Iron/Magnesium/Liquid Silicon Generator [1.4.7]:
Mods used (Some can be replaced)
GregTech (Recipe involved and automation itself with HV) 2.90e+ or machines will explode
Thermal expansion (for some machines and MJ storage-conducts)
MineFactory Reloaded (Lava fabricator that works on EU, can be substituted by TE Magma crucible(s) which is slightly less efficient)
Adv. Solar Panels (just for the quantum generator, not required)
Redpower 2 (Only to filter dust output, can be substituted by any other item filtering system)Cost per Iron dust/Magnesium dust/Liquid Silicon (2000mB)
Lava : 8000 mB (8 * 50k EU = 400k EU) [With TE Magma Crucible it is 192k MJ or 480k EU]
Pulverizer : 8 * 400 MJ
Liquid Transposer : 2 * 160 MJ
Electrolyzer recipe : 2 * 2500 EU = 5k
Extractor (2 overclockers) : 2 * 6400 EU = 12.8k
Electric Crafting : 2 * 500 EU = 1k
Automation : Not worth counting, less than 100 EUTotal in EU : 427000 EU (507000 if using Magma Crucible)
Required Stuff
Energy Source (EU and/or MJ)
Lava fabricator (MFR) / Magma Crucible (TE)
Igneous extruder (TE)
Aqueous Accumulator (TE)
Pulverizer (TE)
Industrial Electrolyzer (GT)
Small electric buffers (GT)
Electric Translocators (GT)
Electric Sorter (GT)
Automatic Extractor (GT)
Liquid Transposer (TE)
Quantum tank (GT) [this can be replaced with any other liquid storage]
Quantum chest (GT) [this can be replaced with any other item storage

Edit: I forgot that if you don't have the same config as me you might not be able to use the map so you should download it first.
Greg's Hint : You can substitute lava fabricator/igneous extruder by using redstone to produce obsidian. -
I plan to add Steam Engine Upgrades for my Machines, so you won't need the Steam Turbines to get EU. And yes, what you said is exactly what I want on this Thread.
How about adding your own "steam turbine" which doesn't require maintenance. Conversion ratio would be 1.5 mB -> 1 EU (lossless is 2:1)
It would be made of aluminium/carbon blades with a tiny amount of chrome (galvanization) to prevent corrosion of blades. -
There is certainly no need to necropost it if you are just flaming.
[Also this is already denied]
Closed. -
I bet he is overhauling the addon to balance everything.
-
It was me =D , your addon has a bridge between magic and tech i've missed.
Not that GT doesn't have it, but it is too... weak.
-
Only one egg which can be used to get energy in GregTech =D .
Enderdragon will not respawn unless you use third party stuff.
[Although there are methods to duplicate eggs like sand, but thats cheating]Will you keep the idea of extracting energy from gems in a generator?
[Also nothing stops you from using endereyes to "awaken" the hidden magical powers of gems] -
Power storage is pretty useless if you consider all other options =D, so i'm still up for my suggestion as i like the concept of magical generators.
(GT provides them but they are not self sustainable in any way or very limited)
Gems can be generated anywhere you want.
Maybe make plasmarite only generated in nether fortress (and in the end).
If you are intending to add chaos emeralds please somehow limit to seven of them. -
Also i won't mention about the fake chaos emeralds (tons of them) which were produced at Sonic X anime series...
-
Don't forget the master emerald. That could be obtained by defeating the enderdragon (or hidden in the main island)
Nevertheless, i will wait for my suggestion (about the mystical generator extracting power from gems), which also makes plasmarite rareness not have to be changed.
-
I'm not pro, neither cons, but I want to keep using the old way, so don't replace the old one with that

Keep both.
-
I think the Chaos Emeralds could work like the following:
1 Emerald makes just 1EU/t. If 2 come together it makes 2^2EU/t, 3 make then 3^3EU/t, thats already 27EU/t, but still not really worth it, now to the 4th, it makes 256EU/t. Finally a sufficient amount. But then we got the 5th: it has a whopping 5^5 = 3125EU/t! 6 Emeralds make 46656EU/t, what is almost worth a Fusion Reactor. If you have all 7 then you get 823543EU/t (16 Fusion Reactors) and are unstoppable! Muahahahaha!!!
It all only works if you put all Emeralds together ofcourse.
That seems nice, but i prefer my idea as one emerald alone is good enough (and still makes people fight over them).
Just x2 values i've suggested and it would be good.
Also chaos emeralds might need a special generator for them as they are gems with very strong magical energy.Another possible fancy event is giving you super powers (like sonic does) if you have all seven chaos emeralds in your inventory, ability to fly (similar to creative), to hit stronger (Strength 4), to run faster (speed 4), to take less damage (resistance 4), immune to lava (fire resistance 4)...
Possible compatibility with GT (that greg maybe can even do now as it only depends on X item being in a chest).
New mode for Magic energy absorber that can extract gems energy from adjacent chest at 1/2 value they would if they were inside the mystical energy extractor. -
You can't shift-right-click a recycler while outside its GUI to recycle the thing you're holding.He is talking about the post above him that says the current way to add upgrades works well.
You are able to add upgrades by shift clicking the upgrade while in a machine GUI, however if it is a recycler, it will recycle the upgrade instead.
