It would "break" the logic of "Slot up, so items come from the upper side" but ... why not. But I don't see the point of allowing it only with Logistic Pipes or whatever.

Fun fact! France receives 78.8% of its power from nuclear facilities. So MatLaPatate knows what he's talking about
LOL. And I'm for Nuclear Power
But I guess the fact that make me know what I'm talking about is that I would like studying on Nuclear Energy Generation. -
Uranium used in reactors and nukes is uranium 238 HIGHLY enriched in Uranium 235 (the 238 is there to make sure there isnt too much radiation, i guess).
Please do not speak about something you don't understand, wich seems to be the case here
Uranium used in Reactor is enriched at 4-5% (from 1% in the nature), just what is needed to the U35 to continue the reaction by sending Neutrons on others U235 OR creating Plutonium by sending neutrons on U238, wich become, because of this fact, fissile. And U235 isn't very radioactive. The only thing that is "HIGHLY" enriched is Uranium used to create Nuclear Bombs: generally between 40 and 60%, what is needed to create the chain reaction.
Moreover, assuming Enriching Uranium is very expensive, Uranium used as Fuel is not enriched as Nuclear Bombs. The other reason is that as I already said, the percentage of enrichment is one the most important thing to consider the power of a A-Bomb: if Nuclear Reactor doesn't explode when overheating or whatever, that's because the Ura isn't very enriched. -
What I like with centrifuge and more generally, your whole addon, is that it makes a lot of things that are usually "useless" useful. (Netherrack, BC Oil etc ...). And having this idea in mind, I've tried to look into MC to find useless ressources. And I found one: Mycellium.
And do you know why are mushrooms giant where is Mycellium ? Because both are Genetically Modified via Radiation, product of Humans risky behaviour. That's why, still nowadays, you can find in Mycellium a very small amount of Radioactive Isotope. You should try to put this into a Centrifuge. Try with 64 m^3, for being sure or finding something. And maybe you'll find something that could fill a Cell and turn it into a Depleted Isotope Cells. If you've got a Silktouch Tool, try to harness some Giant Mushrooms Block, they could also contain some weird element ...
But don't try to create it via UUM + scrap to get infinite energy, the ratio would be lower than 1. -
What are the Wolfram-Cells for? I have plenty of them now, but didnt find any uses for them yet.
Understand "Wolfram" as Tungsten. And look at the recipes, or use a Gregtech Computer Cube for that.
-
Added use for Fallenbeasts Woodgas-Cells
Added Methane-Cells and Carbon-Cells, which are currently just usable as good Fuel.And these aren't linked. Because you won't give us recipes.
-
I asked that but I didn't get the answer 1st time
Why 1.4? Will it add something new or...?Maybe because he's just waiting it for updating one time more his addon ?

RP-Gems/GT-Gems + Macerator = Gemdust
Gemdust = Ampifier for MassfabricatorGT-Gems usable in RP-Recipes except for those Picks, Axes, Shovels, Hoes and Swords.
RP-Gems not usable in my Recipes, except for the Maceratingpart mentioned above ofcourse.
I think that clears it up.
That's well. (But why could you use Gems if it'snot for Tools ? I don't have any recipe in mind)
Gemdust: That's why your macerator need diamond ? To break Ruby where Flint couldn't ?
And as for amplifier effect: how many scraps does it worth ? (But that's well, a bit "unrealistic" [as using scrap seems more plausible, even if I don't care about realism] but it will give me something to do with gems, others than using it as cobble stone to make swords when I don't find my NanoSaber or than using it to create Enchanted Pickaxe) -
In my opinion, this sounds OP: Generate Ura from Coal with it, then use a CASUC (news one) to turn this Ura into EU--> run tons of others Particles Accelerator and to get even more Uranium + UUM--> The very small amount of Coal you'll need ...
That's not respecting the universal conservation of the Mass/Energy law so that's unrealistic (I said it as purpose ^^), in the annoying for player way: it's easily exploitable.NB: I thought and think it do not consume more than 9 000 000 EU/ Produced Ura, thinking it can be run with ONLY 10EU/t.

My Gems (and the Emerald) WILL be exchangeable in Redpowerrecipes (except the basic Tools), so theres absolutely no Reason to have RP-Gems, and i hope Eloraam will nerf the Gemamount, or at least add a Config to disable them as they are extremly OP.
Couldn't you simply disable RP gems usage for recipes from your addon, and leave them other way ? Because they aren't OP (mainly because they are a bit useless with IC² except at te beginning) but too common for being used as something that is about as valuable as Diamond (Ruby is a bit less valuable, because it can just replace diamond in Energy Crystal recipe, but Sapphire can be seen as a way of saving 1 Diamond + 8 Redstone, even if you cant use it for crafting a Diamond Drill). And if you don't want RP gems being useless, make it usable to craft Gem-Armor

the way the nuclear reactor is in IC2 seems more complicated than real life lol! here i was hoping i would have an advantage knowing how they work in real life.
More complicated ? Lol! It so easier than IRL to understand ... Cells produce Heat and EU, and both more if you use Cells in the meantime. And you have to cool it down. Also, you can use Reactor Hull (heat stored by the reactor) to increase the speed of breeding. That's easier than understanding (It's also not complicated IRL, but more than the IC² system) difference between U235 and U238 in the way of a Nuclear Reactor works ... what I won't explain to you (because I hope you know how it works before saying it's easier than IC² and because I do not know all the technic words in english)

Having Nuclear Waste doesn't exactly make it "Clean" you know?
Cleaner than burning Coal, what also "produce" radioactivity, by burning and throwing into the atmosphere radioactive Isotope ... Because Coal contains Thorium, as example. But the fact it's more dangerous (only talking about radioactivity, I won't remind you particles and others it combusion generates ...) than a Nuclear Plant for health isn't mentionned by Energy Company ... Ask Greg, the German guy replacing Nuclear Power with Coal based one
But yes, it's nt "clean", but Nuclear Waste can be stored "easily", when CO2 isn't ... (not that it couldn't be, but that would be more expensive than using Green Energies) -
Wow, too many person on this thread, I've been ninjaed 3 times in 2 minutes ...
-
OK, i did not know that, tought it's limited to 9x9 area.
That's right. But 9*9 *5 deep = A good amount of EU before having to change the place of your Pump. (405 Lava sources = 80 100 000 EU, and Nether Lava Lakes are often deeper that it)

WH... WHAT ? I post "It seems I ninjaed you" and I've been ninjaed by TWO person ?

It seems I ninjaed you ...

I've just one question (because I haven't tried your mod yet, because of non being able to play Minecraftfor the time being): Rubby and Sapphire from Redpower cannot be used instead of Ruby and Sapphire from your addon for crafting Energy Crystal + Lapotron right ? Because they are so common ... I know it's probably obvious, but since you added a lot of name to the Ore-Dictionnary I've been afraid ...
Suggestion: Rare Earth "Ore". That would mainly be a rare (^^) Ore wich could be macerated then centrifuged to get any Rare Earth (it would need at least 2-3 different Rare Earth, the others byproduct being a common metal), each one having special issues as replacing Si-Cells in Solar Pannels to give you 2 Solar Pannels, replacing Glowstone/Lapis/Redstone in some recipes to get more Circuits/Machines save ressources, because Rare Earth are generally used as it can increase efficienty (for exemple with Solar Pannels)

I mean i agree that all of those things are not realistic but i still think it would be nice to have a boiler and turbine with water going through to give the generator power, i mean it wouldn't be realistic for me to build my own power plant in real life but that's why i want to build it in minecraft
You do. But the vast majority of the users don't want IC² to become more complicated. And just think: what would it REALLY change ? If it change something to make the game more enjoayble, that can be good. Else ...

I have a proposal for new machines
The disassembler: simply disassembles items back into the parts that it was made of. The energy needed (or if it is possible at all) for disassembly depends on the complexity (tier) of the item.Already denied, even if I don't remember if it has been denied or not by Greg (I guess yes)
- blockbreakerS are easy to make, take no energy, destroy blocks immediately and don't wear off
With that I can agree with you, especially because it gives you almost free scrap. But this is not the point here.
- tranporting items using pipes costs no energy at all, distance does not matter (only sorting costs energy afaik)
It has not to be, even if I agree with you about the fact it makes Automation too easy.
- frame quarrys ... I watched some videos about them... pretty impressive. One huge quarry just needs a hand full of solar panels to operate... really?
And did you try using Frame ? This is not the same thing as using BC-Quarry ... it's pretty hard to build.
- pumps... same like quarrys, could be used to gather huge amounts of lava from the nether and create ressources with centrifuges
IC pump did the same if you take the time to create a "pipe" by putting yourself Lave sources ... and IC² pump provide 10 000 EU more in your geogen than Lava brought by Pipes/Cells (unless this cells are filled with the IC² pumps, placed on a side of your Geogen ^^)

well as far as i know the nuclear reactor can explode if it isnt used properly, I think it should just melt into a new unusable block. I mosly suggest this change because nuclear reactors in real life can't cause a nuclear explosion like a nuclear bomb can. it would be cool if the nuclear reactor was reworked to be more like nuclear plants in real life.
Realism, again and again ... STOP WITH IT please
And if Nuclear Reactor explode in IC², it's:
1) For fun.
2) To avoid easy breeding.
3) Because the reinforcments you'll need to protect your base are parts of the cost.
4) Because it replace radiation as it's also a huge problem
