The only "true" end game is when you get bored of it since this is a sandbox. If your life suddenly lost all meaning because you made a nuclear reactor, then thats your issue.
Also, i never mentioned any "End game" of any sort, so i dont know why you bring it up.
1; Nuclear its the substitute that Alblaka chose, but people dont like things they actually have to properly maintain so they would rather keep building solar generators without giving a fuck about their server health.
2: im gonna wait for someone more tech savvy to tell you how Electromagnetic "Rays" are illogical/impossible or not.
My first thought when reading the OP was "troll science"... Dunno why.
Eh, you know the real end game substitute for Solar panels is the nuclear reactor.
And how do you expenct to send the energy from the satellite to earth? assuming if we go by logic that the satellite must be in space... or at least pretty much f**king high up.
Also Solar arrays its even less stupid than this quite honestly, no need to make it overly complicated >.>
One last thing, Logic says i dont have enough arms to make enough facepalms at the only 1 eu/t lost in the transmition... I mean do you know how much distance is there above the (Ozone thingy forgot the english name lol) to sea level?
(If my message have too much bitching in it, its because i have 24 hrs+ awake, that kind of thing gets your mood pretty sour)
It could be an issue of your texture pack, check the rar and look for the IC2 block spreadsheet (its a PNG image called block easy to find) and see if you can find the wood with the resin hole in it.
Au contraire, baby! In my 1.64 SMP world I have a Silk Touch diamond drill and a Fortune II diamond drill and they definitely work as advertised.
That said, only my inner munchkin will miss having those enchantments. The diamond drill is already about as fast as an Eff2 enchantment and is Unbreakable X+
My mistake then, they were not placebos, just plain retarded.
Makes me wonder what his username was before the change O.o
You need to have the mode change botton pressed, and then right/left click if its a tool (Laser, wrench) or spacebar if its the Jetpack.
1. Not much to say about this, i find the name to be fine.
2. Iron can handle both HV and EV because, quite honestly most people use only up to HV. Why? MFSU only outputs up to HV and the only reason EV its presented naturally its due to a high efficiency setting in a nuclear reactor.
3. Glass fiber its supposed to be the Best tier of cable (Hence why its expensive).
4-5. Not much to say to this either, see point 2-3.
7. There should not be any "Encoraging" of people to make them use the best tier of cable always, theres a cable specifically made for each situation. Copper its for wiring your regular machines (No OC), Gold its the update to that when using advanced machines that uses 128 eu and Reinforced Iron/Glass Fiber is supossed to be used for wiring nuclear reactors to MFSU and to transport high amounts of energy over large distances. If you always use the best tier of cable for wiring everything, you could cause accidents like forgetting to transform from hv to lv and destroying your machines if that happens, but if you use the lower tier of cables its the low tier cable itself who would explode, saving your machines most of the time.
Enchantments before the removal where like placebos, they where they but didnt do a thing.
I dont really like the idea for a few reasons:
Day/Night Cycles may be a nightmare in SMP when people suddenly change or something crazy like that.
Machines Speed up would be preposterious since we got the oc for it. (If you get massive EU/t for having too much OC, imagine adding a 2x or 3x multiplier to that)
Speeding up your crops may be detrimental if you are crossbreading, since a weed could grow in the cross stick and fuck up the other crops around.
What else? Oh yeah if you make this time machine have a certain area how will it deal with severed Enet? I mean half of your cables under the influence of the machine while the other half isnt.
Totally and utterly disagree.
Air != Diamond
But it's pointless to talk about.
You are comparing the space each solar panel consumes as a valuable block which is the worst way to compare it, The technical difficulty, which is heavily influenced whenever you play solo or multiplayer, and where your base is located and also whenever you try to make your base as secret as possible also affects it too.
And with technical difficulty i mean how in the fuck sakes are you gonna wire those solar panels IF you dont have a flat terrain to do it, or if you try to make your base as hidden as possible how in the fuck name are you gonna hide 512 solar panel+wiring, or if you have a forest above your base and dont want to chop the whole goddamn thing down too.
There is more than one aspect that you can use to balance any feature you add to the game, coincidentially solar panels where balanced on the Day only energy generation and something that would occupy way too much space if you decide to abuse the solar generation, like most people do even if they have to kill their server/pc to be satisfied. (And yes im saying solar arrays would not be a necessity if people stoped abusing the damn thing).
And thats all im gonna say on the issue im supposed to have dropped days ago.
They were never in IC2 Core, so they cant be brought back per se.
Inform yourself before making stupid posts.
Albaka should close this, mod hasnt been updated since 1.8.1 i think.
Just because, author have been MIA since a while ago and no one seems to pick the project up, dont really see a reason for not locking this.
hey, i'm just a random person and i have NO clue ANYTHING about coding or how the game works and this may be impossible but, could there be some way you could make it so you can only place down one of the solar panels only every so many blocks? that was just something i randomly thought of. it sounds impossible to me but i have no clue what you people can do with coding. haha.
Not possible. At best you could code something that explodes if you place something else nearby (Thinking of ThaumCraft obelisk)... So its not exactly every so much blocks, but something placed nearby only.
Wrong subforum, also i believe obsidian blast resistance was already nerfed a few versions ago (IC explosives only)
Quite honestly, i find the idea interesting.
But also quite honestly i find the logic behind it stupid. I mean goldscaffold? be a little more realistic at least, some sort of specially constructed Zero-G chamber or something to make it realistic.
The recipe its fine as it is, specially because if you change the battery recipe you will be cheaping the generator recipe too. (And bat box iirc)
Already tried getting OC to limit their stack, no such luck (Its in the Overclockers OP thread in the Industrial Engineering subforum)
But you should remember that (Once again) unlike solar arrays, placing nearby solar panels didnt affect their funtion unless they were put one on top of other, with Water tower their total eu generation gets affected if you place these watergenerators too close to each other and the cable wiring also reduced the amount of valid water blocks nearby for the energy generation.
There is still some rules bending with the water arrays.
(Forgive any misspelling or confusion, im kinda tired right now sorry)
(Also this is just me laying out the logic of the process, if CPW wants to do so there is literally nothing that can stop him)
