    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    Documentation - the bane of a software developers existence. :) I like the idea of robots in BC - I just haven't spent time trying to figure them out because of the lack of written documentation. I am a person that learns more by skimming written word than watching videos where over half the...

    [1.7.10] AgriCraft

    The first thing I thought of when I read this was Z-Weed ala Z-Nation. :) It must be because Halloween is around the corner. Kinda. The picture i have in my head is a two block tall structure, where the top block is like a glass enclosure. The plant grows in this section, and the bottom...

    [1.7.10] AgriCraft

    A suggestion for AgriCraft - add a mechanical "soil" block, something like hydroponics. What this soil block can do is: Acts like crop sticks so that the player doesn't have to create them. Can accept liquid being piped in for hydration. Without the water the plant can die. Figure if...

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    Yes, I am aware there are mods that have devices that do those things. I am looking for them in pipe form.

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    One thing I liked about DartCraft was the auto-smelt pipe. It was useful for converting mob drops into ingots and such. Not that I recommend doing that specific pipe, but I think it would be helpful to have two new pipes: * Packaging pipe - takes a stream of items and attempts to craft in...

    No, you shouldn't have to do anything special. After a chunk generates TR will scan the chunk looking for redstone ore blocks. For each block it finds there is a 1-in-N chance it will be replaced with Energized Redstone Ore. N is 10 by default.

    You mean while the game is not loaded? That would be awesome! Really, though, quarry chunk loading works in SSP if you are not in the area.

    Mod Feedback [1.7.10] Thermal Recycling Info/Support

    I think I came up with some reasonable starting numbers for the RTG. And yes, it will be configurable. :) As for Minetweaker, you can find info on how to use it with Thermal Recycling here. Not sure if it is entirely usable - haven't had any feedback on it as of yet.

    I was thinking of starting lower, too. :) 20 is a little bit high, especially for a lower tier battery. Hard part is deciding how much energy to put in these things. IRL these devices can last 10-15 years.

    Mod Feedback [1.7.10] Thermal Recycling Info/Support

    Hey all! Need some feedback. I have been toying with the idea of adding one-shot power devices to the mod. These devices would be modeled on some real life things called RTGs (Radioisotope Thermal Generator) and SRGs (Sterling Radioisotope Generator). They would have a lot of stored energy...

    Or are not being powered. Been on servers where players used the quarry as a cheap chunk loader.

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    Though I can understand the sentiment, I do disagree, especially of the mod author desires to have their mod included in a modpack destined for deployment on a server. In general it has to be expected that a mod will be installed alongside of other mods and all should play well in the server...
