  • [Suggestion] Increase EU output of water mills

    Quote from Two

    What was the reason (if any)? Just out of curiosity.

    its a thing that has to do with ballance between the different green generators. solars pro is convenient setup its con is how expensive it is, waters pro is its cheap and has manned mode its con is its less convenient to set up(but that is debatable if you just use tin cable and a existing body of water to submerge it instead of building a tower), for the pro's and cons of wind ask spwnx he is our resident wind-nut.


    now for a crash course in cables. you don't experience % powerloss with every block. you experience as a set amount of loss after a set amount of blocks with copper you lose 1eu per packet on the fifth block so if there is always a batbox or transformer as the fifth block then you experience no loss. tin is made for green generators because you experience no loss until block 40 but tin can only handle up to 5eu packets so after 40 blocks you have to connect to a batbox or transformer and use copper

    Well, maybe someone should put a bold last modified date on the compendium, I know when I saw it I thought it was up to date and, I didn't search because there is a convenient compendium right there!


    I'll check out the force field mod for sure, I just think it seems odd to build a large reinforced structure with a hole in it! What would happen n The event of an explosion with a 1x1 hole? Would the blast only affect a 1x1 beam out of the hole? Or would it be a regular blast?

    it will make a cone of explosion the common solutions is either to point this hole away from any thing you care about preferably towards bedrock. or add more 90 degree turns to you power line(the explosive force drops sharply with each turn it has to make) also you can spray wires with cf

    oh yeah we have doors don't we? never used them cause there was always a hole in my reactor for the cable well in that case the reinforce stone wire block sounds good. in this regard you have earned my respect welcome to the forums :) the force field addon has a reactor containment field that lets you get power in and out without holes I was only trying to help with that comment since suggestions take so long to get implemented.


    I will have you know I reside in a mansion with bat cave like industrial room not a fort and definitely not one with a lame name like "he total doucher" the compendium hasn't been updated since 2011 and says you have to run a search plus it mentioned electric minecarts

    Quote from Mostlydave

    Reinforced stone wire coupler, pass wire thru reinforced stone reactor walls

    so how do you plan to change the uranium then? look at the force field addon

    Quote from Mostlydave

    Elevators 4x4 electric elevator possibly using mining machine shaft to dig hole

    use a magnetizer and metal boots

    Quote from Mostlydave

    Electric cart: use brass rails and new cart with engine to eliminate redstone powered track

    denied before alblaka maybe already working on it

    Quote from Mostlydave

    I didn't see these in be compendium, let me know what you think!

    it helps if you actually read the compendium plus you most also run a search your self.

  • Suggestion: A few more recipes (Including machine + item -> product)


    1. ic2 doesn't have additive machine recipe's like the advanced machines addon
    2. yes
    3. suggested before still yes
    4. waste of energy just place and punch
    5. sure
    6. see 1.
    7. yes

    9. see 3.
    10. yes

  • [Suggestion] Diamond Drill Recipie

    Quote from MatLaPatate

    Hmmm ...
    Seems to be unrealistic.
    There's no tools craftable without crafting table.
    But without these reasons, I agree (a bit) with you.

    shears, flint and steel, tongs, hammer, saw. people will just throw together a crafting table in the field any ways and its a simple recipe change so all this is an optimization that saves time.

  • [Suggestion] - Boozeception&Agriculture

    Quote from csandazoltan

    Boozeception
    UI for keg:
    - Slots for ingridients (3-5 i don't comprehend the methods completely 8))
    - Little window for peeking the brew's color
    - Slot for mug

    more gui's? no :thumbdown: I like simple clicking whenever possible

    maybe

    been suggested before alblaka knows people want a crop analyzer overhaul

    crawl back into the pit from whence you came spambot you will find no prey here

  • [suggestion] washing machine (A.K.A. a low tier repair machine)

    Quote from GregoriusT

    1. Something else
    2. Isn't that integrated in a Macerator?
    3. Acceptable balancement
    4. CLEAN ALL THE DIRTBLOCKS!!!

    1. how about the clean-a-tron? that way it doesn't invoke images of a traditional tumbler washer
    2. the ability to get 3 dusts out of an ore? I don't think macerators can do that. do you mean implement this as a module for the macerator like my machine control module idea?
    3. glad you agree I'll add it to the top post
    4. thats the spirit :D /jk i said dirt cause it can't be farmed like cobble and sand but it doesn't have to be dirt or even happen at all the machine can keep to just cleaning armor
