    if it was used exclusively for preventing cable loss it might not be OP but not as a general power source

    even if its practical IRL its still imbalanced in ic2 you should probably drop the idea before these guys get out of control


    and every one else stop flaming he probably gets why he is being flamed and he is being very smart with what he is say(or not saying :D ) in response

    thats why i choose glass fiber i figured with enough hand waving my atoms can wiggle their fat butts through easier than a solid block of copper or gold. here's some good techno-babble hand waves the atoms are not travelling on the inside of the wire they are following the cable on the outside, or you teleport through solid objects on a regular basis why not the whole way there?

    this is probably the most poorly thought out post i've ever scene we should enshrine it some where :D

    such batteries exist IRL but they would involve microbes or atleast some chemicals.

    Name: wire connected teleporters


    Description: the idea is simple instead of using freqterans a player can establish a link between two teleports by connecting them to each other with glassfiber cable (and splitter and detector cable). since the cable would take a spot from a power storage block this type of link should probably get a power efficiency boost. also it would have the advantage of allowing people to use splitter cables to link one pad to multiple pads allowing easy selection of destination with the flip of a few levers


    recipe:
    :Teleporter::Glass Fibre::Glass Fibre::Glass Fibre::Teleporter: simple :D


    can i hear you say HAYO!

    most bullet resistant ceramic vests only stop a few bullets ("dragon scale" armor being the exception) cause while the armor stops the bullet it shatters in the process. how would ceramic tools be different from other earthen materials like stone or diamond tools?

    Give me a valid set of useful reasons for implementing Ceramics and I will consider it.


    the stuff everyone else said that i like
    ceramic coffee mug (seems to be popular)(stone mug can stay but add a way to chill it to give booze an additional boost cold rocks is where the term "on the rocks" came from after all)
    electronics (didn't you say at one point you were going to replace something in the circuit recipe with silicon?)
    armor (im thinking an armor with low durability but massive damage reduction)
    potted plants (drain their water and nutrients fast and they get no bonus from biomes but they do not spread weeds and can be picked up and carried in a inventory)
    more reactor components
    capacitors (but not like RL they store large amounts of power but the power dissipates if it goes unused)
    superconductors (if the means was added to make it cold enough)

    Looks nice, although it would force people to connect the cables below because otherwise it would look weird.

    thats nothing a couple tweaks with blender can't solve like making the base 3/4 of the block thick and there can still be the tilty part or just have the wires stretch to connect to the stem

    There's a link to your thread in the first sentence I wrote, explaining that this idea originally stems from your suggestion ;D
    Maybe it's even worth suggesting a whole product family?


    Toolshed > 1 tool, no GUI, wooden recipe
    Equipmatron > Entire hotbar, GUI, machine block recipe
    Cargotron > Whole inventory (no hotbar), GUI, advanced machine block recipe


    (yeah I'm not so good with naming things, do the machines that load and unload the containers on ships have a name?)

    another +1 from me for the toolshed. I want ma'PEGBOARD! :D or equivalent there of
