    Mod Feedback [By Request] RotaryCraft Suggestions

    So far, those are sharable -- that's 16 colors for power generation. Now, you might not like the rate of recharge if there's a dozen people using the same 16, but it is possible. This info is a few versions old: apparently, you needed to destroy at least 2 if not 3 of each color by the...

    Perhaps because it looks like Ninja? Who are those two on the left, in the picture with the FMA brothers?

    Problem with Bats

    I thought bats spawn where the light is low (zero), not just sky. If dark glass does not let light in, and it's still light zero even if you can see the sky, that would give bats still. Wiki: "Bats can spawn in the Overworld at a light level of 3 or less on opaque blocks below layer 63"

    What makes you think that they are _unnecesary_ philosophical issues?

    If I remember the description of the flywheel, if it has no load, it won't spin down. So that sounds exactly like what the clutch is for -- no load, no effect.

    [ReactorCraft] ReC Mechanics Thread

    Finalize is worse than you think. First, it isn't even guaranteed to be called. When the program shuts down, Finalizers can be skipped. Second, consider shutting down the current world, the save() routines are called, and then objects are destroyed, and finalizers want to do ... what? Third...

    [ReactorCraft] ReC Mechanics Thread

    Well, lets see. Void monster as punishment? Nope? ok, turn all of the items into entities, like Mystcraft books? Does that still let you know when they are put into an AE system, or destroyed from within an AE system? Heck, what if they are just put on a drive, and the drive taken out and put...

    You can use multiple machines, each running slower, for a faster overall output.

    Plug it straight into a Tokamak ...??? At that point, do you even need to do any shifting?

    A mod to raise the number of scheduled block ticks that can exist in 1.7.10. (1.10 has already raised the number from 1000 to 65,000, I believe)

    Does it count as "thread necromancy" if it was an on-topic post? (note that this is another silly question too :-)

    Sorry, I did not understand that question. If you lack co-ordination, is it disco-ordination?

    Keybounce's Overly Cluttered D... Den?

    So in the last three months, there's been a bit of activity :) First: Captive Minecraft IV: Winter Realm / Overhyped Caverns of Doom, Vertical Vanilla Viewing is now up to 5 episodes. Episode 3: Bread and Circus :). The Bread achievement, and some mob silliness. Lets say that I have a reason...

    I wouldn't know how to tell the refresh rate of the devices being shown. As I said: I can see the difference on CRT's and other "fast decay" devices. Actual screen rate of my machine? I don't know. If I turn off vsync, then minecraft updates fast enough that the scene tear is visible to me.

    Oh, I understand that the eye can see more than 60. On a CRT, I needed 100 Hz refresh to avoid seeing flicker. But on a modern flat screen? 60 eliminates flicker -- there is sufficient persistence of the light.
