actually! better idea!. how about a Virtual Reality Projection (VRP) block. that when powered and right-clicked would allow you to fly around like your in creative mode but your actual character would stay in place at the block. this way you could use this VRP could be used to explore tunnel systems of ravines.
That looks like a great idea for another mod, just not IC^2 style though.
This bug has been in IC^2 for quite some time. A workaround would be to move the sound slider, and move it back to the volume you want, thus updating the sounds IC uses. If you just plain hate the sounds, turn them off in the config.
When the WMFSU is full, and the game is restarted, minecraft regenerates the chunks that the WMFSU was in.
There goes the third awesome tower now.
That's great news!
For me anyways...
