Quote from Appleblomb

If i remember properly buildcraft supports nuclear reactors. Just use compressors with water cells or pumps to get snow and compress it again to get ice and pipe it in to the reactor. Automate it all with pipes and you should be set, if you need external cooling that bad on a reactor you should be able to net enough energy gain to make it worthwhile. But then again I don't play with reactors that much so you will have to figure it out.

Yes, and I've tried it, but it is not very efficient: you need min 20% of the energy you produce with the nuclear reactor to create Ice Blocks, and it's a lot of compressor/redstone engine/tube/cable.
RedPower CASUC is 10 time more efficient (and cheaper)

Quote from GregoriusT

Not that hard, just an invisible Skin, invisible Armoroverlay, invisible Hotbaritem and invisible Playernametag, and all that is not implemented in Forge.

I don't know anything about coding
I would like having and I-Suit, but just for PvP (wait for I-Conflict!)

It works already with CobWeb. But, the nano-saber is unbreakable, so it would maybe work only when on, isn't it ?
Also, it's a bit easy to use it as a way to harness Cobweb (okay, not as cheap as a stone sword ^^)
But +1 for the suggestion.

I think, if Fuel can't be liquid as for BC fuel, it can't be move like that, but it could work with the Gen/newGen next to the pump/miner/other device, as for pump with miner.
Simply use the container for fuel (special machine or simply chest) next to your Gen, and it will work by itself, aren't you ?

Quote from Nanomanz

I like the Energy-o-Mat

Or simply, as I already suggest, the Redstone-O-Mat ? My Idea was to pay for getting a redstone signal, but GregoriusT improve it with suggesting we could just add a redstone signal function to the basic Trade-O-Mat. Then, you've just to use properly Detector/Switcher Cable and you can sell your energy.

And more, it's a good way for grieffers, aren't you ?
But I guess too it's very hard to code.

Quote from Sebra

Not need to be a mode. Should be auto on advanced tool.

Quote from Sebra

Summary: no need for modes.
Double Jump -> Jet on;
Touch ground -> Jet off.
When on:
Jump -> increase speed up;
Sneak -> increase speed down (calculate landing speed, auto decrease vert/hor speed in danger);
Ctrl -> increase horizontal speed;
Arrows -> move in selected direction;
no controls pressed -> decrease any speed, slow random movement (not ideal "creative" fixed in air position).

I agree with you for the first quote. But I think we should have juste 2 modes: 1 Travelling mode (a very fast one, as already suggested, but not divided in Horizontal/Vertical modes) and 1 "Creative" mode, to build.

Quote from SpwnX

Not in my opinion, as they hold as much energy as the Qsuit parts does. Also they are multi-use jetpacks. Which is great for building, elevator, speed travel with no obstacles in your way, etc. If Safe-mode could be toggled together with any other mod together, would be even more usefull.

Ok, I see.
+1 for the modes AND the adv. Jetpack so.

+1 for this 4 modes, but I think the Advanced Jetpack you suggest is too expensive to be used.

Quote from SpwnX

Also, add the possibility to teleport blocks above teleporters. [So we can teleport chests and other interesting stuff. A MFSU for example]

... and moving it with piston/placing it with the Steve's hands ...
I think it wouldn't be an easy way to do it, a Chest-teleporter would be better.
Minecart okay, Minecart chest okay, for more usage, use the Idon'trememberhowit'scalled Minecart-Mod.

The point I could see for a Auto-firing Mining Laser block with redstone input would be not having to charge the mining laser, but directly the block, making it working as a machine.

Quote from MaskTheSaito

Me and my friends decided to stick with just IC2 as the tech mod and few smaller mods as additions for more stability. We never tried Redpower before but we're pretty sure to not add that (along with BC, Thaumcraft, and other big tech mods) into our current world.

What would happen if I ask Notch for implementing a part of IC² in MC because I don't want to play with all IC² ? Nothing. Just use RP, we won't add something just for "you and your friends".
Could be added if it has a different function than the RP one.
But Upgradable laser turret has already been suggested.

Yes, I think too, because a 80% energy saving would be OP when using in the meantime Overclocking upgrade, and it can't be "one non-stackable Upgrader for 40% energy saving" or "64 for maw 40%"

The Idea is very simple: You've Overclocker, Transformer and Energy Storage Upgrade:
I think we should have "Efficienty Upgrade".
It would decrease the Machine Energy-Consumption/Increase Gen production (of course, only for basic one and Geothermal, and Fuel Gen if it get added).
2 option: 1) It's unstackable (so you max 4 per machine, and maybe 1 per gen)
2) It's very inefficient (so for example, it could divide energy consumption by 2 with 16 Upgrader)

The craft would need circuit, advanced Circuit, Golden Cabble and I don't know what else.

I know, it has probably already been suggested/denied, but not for Gen AND machine, isn't it ?

I'm just suggesting an Idea, I know the concept has to be improved.
Just talk about it.

Quote from passinglurker

or why doesn't alb just give upgrade slots to the canning machine?

No, there's no really reasons to be against it ... I think it's already on the To-do List (It became bigger and bigger ...)

Quote from passinglurker

their gonna have to get in line cause PETA was after me first over the whole "kill all the minecraft pigs!" thing (when is start a world a spare the cows ansd chickens for breeding but pigs are fair game and are as a result killed on sight )

Lol.
And I guess too they are against ervery Minecraft's Player because of the huge amount of tree they cut!
And, what could we said about people destroying these beautiful landscape with their Terraformers because they want to build a house ...

Okay if it's just for Transformer Upgrade, but why do you not use simply Transformer Block ? It's cheaper and ...
And it would be uggly having only 1 slot!

Would you allow player to get more and more nuke ? GreenPeace is looking for you!

Quote from gustavrsh

Well, I was planning to upgrade all my machines to 128 EU/t (Medium Voltage) using Transformer Upgrades. But there's no such slot in the Canning Machine. The same happens with the Miner. I wanted to place MFEs above it, but I need to place LV-Transformers first.

I Searched the forum, I didn't find this suggestion anywhere.I did not do it too by myself but I think it's has already been suggested.

(Please don't execute/knife/throw rocks/nuke me )

Overclocking Miner, are you crazy ? I find them too speed (I like it, but what I dislike is to move them always, because of their very little area of mining)
Canning machine ... Are canning machine as used as it ? I only use it on PvP servs, when I haven't yet Q-suits.
And it's not as if you have tons of food to put in these cans, compared to how many ore you have to macerate ...

Quote from passinglurker

its a bug if it wasn't intentional. I'm say it should be brought back as a intended feature. even with the old recipe you would need a eff of at least 3 (mk3 dangerous and needs to be baby sat) or a breeder(also dangerous and often needs to be baby sat) just to break even. sure you can use scrap to make uum cheaper but that is a time consuming process to get enough trash and run it through the recycler with out mods

I know that's not a bug. That's why I add "/energy gain"
And without mods, it's a bit difficult, I know. But how many people are playing IC² without RP or at least BC ?
