My initial concept would be to introduce a 'health bar' to machines much like the health bar on tools. However, instead of having a fixed number of uses after which they are guaranteed to break as tools do, I would have machines carry a per-operation-completed chance of breakdown, the odds of which start at 0% at full health and slowly get worse as the machine accumulates usage wear. The effect of a breakdown would be the same as a failed wrench use. I would add the health bar of the machine to the right-click gui, as well as the inventory slot decal as with breakable tools. I would also add a number-of-completed-operations counter to the right click gui.

... Did you understand the basic Idea of IC² ? And before IC², IC ? The aim was to make tools more efficient, and UNBREAKABLE at the cost of the energy. Do a furnace break ? No. So should machine break, when tools won't because of what I already said ? I don't think so.

If you want to create economy on your server, the most efficient would be to create machine adding few advantages to player, like "energy", added on your hunger bar, that you could reload with, for example Shower (we aren't these dirty Steves using pickaxe and dying because of disease, we've got IC² ^^), Heater or others machine that could create something similar to our "Post World War Economic Growth". I think that would be easier.
But it has already been suggested/denied I guess.

I saw that a Cropnalyzer-Block was already planned. And your one seems to be incredibly useless/expensive for what it do.

Already suggested ... you want to get banned ?

Massfab? I use my "MISEL Mk II"-Design to limit its consumption 100% effectively on fresh Scrap, so thats not a valid use. Also it got already suggested as a new Energysystem, which balances the Energy like Redpower, this is pretty much the same useless Stuff.

We know you're really proud of what you "invent", but we aren't speaking about scraps (as I play very often with locked blockbreaker, because I consider it's a bit OP), and RP is a bit more complicated than this simple block. What I said about MassFab do not concern scrap, I just say that was a way to run your mass fab with the same Energy-Setup, but just with leaving enough ernery to run your machine in the Meantime.
If you don't want to add "Useless stuff", we could add it as a function for Transformer (It would need a guy).

Quote from Sebra

I do not see any single use for it.
Can you show an example where it needed?

For example to run your machine on a side, your massfab on the others, when knowing the percentage of the energy you produce needs your machine.
+1 for the suggestion, as I would use it too.

Jetpack wouldnt be configured by pressing M to change modes, simply right click it in hand to open a GUI and you select which modes and options you want.

That would be harder to code, when you would need only creative flight mode and travelling one. I do not see the interest of implementing others.

Quote from Sebra

Read better. It can be done without modes and ew keys.

Yes, but it's Overcomplicating for begginers.
And what I suggest (Wait, I'm not for too, I'm just bored by this talks ^^) could have ended the discussion.

The Tritium could be obtained by Electrolyzed cells (as Electrolyzed cells are already Hydrogen/Oxygen) used in Nuclear Gen (as for refueling Depleted Isotope cells).
And maybe Deuterium cells could to be Obtain by re-Extracting Hydration cells and Electrolyzing it.
It's just a suggestion. If you get the time to continue.

Yes, but easier to use (it wouldn't add 5 new modes, and 1 new config button)

Quote from kevindude

if you think that you need a special chest to store it because it turns into energy if touched by matter, how can you make a pickaxe out of it?

Ore simply Antimatter could be stored in advanced cells, having their own magnetic field.
And, indeed, Antimatter hadn't been denied specificly, just Tier IV.
So why not using UU-A-matter as an other way to craft nuke (nothing should be more powerful than nuke I think) and to store energy:
Anti-Matter cells + Matter cells would be some Hyper-advanced Electrolyzed cells: 15% losses, stackable, handable.

It wouldn't be a new Tier IV, aren't you ?

PS: the alternative for crafting nuke is needed by the possibility to craft Raw Materials from Matter.

Quote from FenixR

Define "Some".

I don't know, I just see a post from Al. saying he want to implement some change to reactor ...

Quote from kazerima

Actually, I think that's just a coincidence. Low Voltage is 32 EU/t, med is 128 (or 4*32) E/t, high is 512 (128*4) EU/t, and Extreme is 2048 (512*4) EU/t. Each tier of energy is 4 times larger than the previous.

No shit sherlock ...
I KNOW it's a coincidence ... I was clearly joking, aren't you ?

Quote from GregoriusT

All Reactorchanges are already denied.

But some are planned.

Quote from GregoriusT

(i've not checked if there are new Recipes in IC²-1.96)

That's why I post. I haven't checked it too.

So ... we need an enderpearl recipes with UUM. (Is there one I do not find ?)

Why not adding a hand-teleporter (already sugggested ?/already denied ? I did not find it.) working a bit as the one from Essentials (Right/Left clic on a block to teleport yourself) and using EU ?
We have already Blocks-Teleporter, it could just be a tool, but using 5* more energy than the normal one. Useful to build, to move instantly ... Could store 1000 000 EU ...
It's more advanced and more useful than a Advanced Jetpack, aren't you ?

Already suggested and denied I guess. Because it would be hard to code ? (Light moving with the player, it seems to be harder that simple torchs)

Back to the point. I like too the Idea of Antimatter/Tier IV/etc ...
But it has been already suggested (how many thread ? 5 or more I guess) and denied. (I already suggest it too).
And your thread isn't very weel done, you're just suggesting Idea without recipes/mecanism etc ...

Edit: Did you realize that the energy required to create 1 electron/1 positron is 511 MeV ? It ... means that with 512 MeV you've more energy than what you need to create it ... that's why MassFab needs 512EU/t!

Quote from SpwnX

This sprite looks much better than actual IC2 one, in my opinion Tesla coils needs a complete rework
Suggestion: Laser turret [Upgradeable Tesla coil] this is a link, click it

Yes, but the discussion already ended, because of no replies. I'm for too, but ...

Quote from Izbhle

PS:i noticed my CFPack was halve full when i crafted it, i just checked the 15 suggestion pages already, i'd apreciate if anyone was to confirm this a known bug?

I think it's a known bug. Anyway, what you suggest could be good (I hate too trying to place it on cables ^^) but, it's so unefficient compared to the price it have ... sadly.
