    ReactorCraft - clever reactor setups?

    Greetings and Merry Christmas (or happy holidays, whichever way you take it) and Happy New year! I'm back home after an extendo-vacation from the far corners of the globe and right back in the thick of where I left off here. \o/ My next project will be LN2 production, starting with the Dewpoint...

    Why? We're not computing in binary 1's and 0's. While we're computing in base 2, Reika only does this so that the coding for his machines is more performant while still abstracting to the base 10 figures that everyone who has competed first grade will be familiar with. There is none of the...

    I think you've missed the point.

    Most of the machines have their formula expressed in their respective wiki articles. You can compute whatever values (rad/s, torque, power) you need from those. A bunch of them are also listed in the in-game manual (turn the page). The only machines that don't seem to have entries in either...

    I just noticed that I'm not pulling the Oxygen data the PJF's getTanks() method. I suspect this code block (maybe? Yes, no?) in TileEntityPulseFurnace.java, lines 463-465: @Override public FluidTankInfo[] getTankInfo(ForgeDirection from) { return new...

    New wall of shame candidate detected... Feature request/suggestion: With the pulse jet furnace oxygen additive, would you consent to adding an element into the GUI, also callable as a method in its API, to toggle oxygen consumption on/off? Rather than having the PJF consume oxygen 100% of the...

    We run both the Rogue-like dungeons and some other dungeon mod that I forget the name of in addition to the Infernal Mobs mod. So, yes, I do like to tangle but at the same time, getting swarmed by a dozen elite mobs that can slam dunk you for 20 points of damage per shot or whatever means more...

    Never found much use for disarm, honestly. You're a wizard. End your fight from 64 blocks away! :p

    It's worth noting that steam engines, while perhaps "primitive" by today's standards, are not exactly slouches for power either. The industrial revolution was powered by steam. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowing_engine At 30hp (~22KW), even these very early models (circ mid 18th century)...

    You have other alloyed HSLA ingots that fit the bill (ie: spring steel, bedrock) so why not consider another high-performance, heat resistant alloy from the Aluminum family? Is blacklisting these materials non-trivial? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypereutectic_piston Of note, this alloy is...

    ReactorCraft: can ComputerCraft read a hydrogen preheater's temperature?

    To be fair, it's been a while since i tinkered with CC and confusing "bottom" with "down" is a rather easy mistake to make. :) Investigating further, I didn't catch that RainbowTractor was using CC's print() function, which does not output natively to attached monitor peripherals. If...

    Huh. I can confirm that this works. Nice catch! Thanks for that! :)

    Do your worm gears generate heat? I've never used them in game and I'm not in a position to test it at the moment, but it's supposed to be one of the primary mechanical disadvantages of the assembly as they do generate quite a lot of heat from friction. Adjusting the 16:1 ratio might be a...

    They are probably talking about chaining four DC electric engines (16nm) >> worm gear (16:1) >> Grinder to skip wind/steam power sources. I can't imagine why this would be preferable for the time it would take to complete a single operation (~32 seconds) with a perishable gearbox, all in...

    ReactorCraft: can ComputerCraft read a hydrogen preheater's temperature?

    Can't blame you for wanting to avoid Twitter. Personally, I despise everything that it represents. But there's the gmail address as well, which may or may not be productive.

    ReactorCraft: can ComputerCraft read a hydrogen preheater's temperature?

    Dan's forum profile over at the computercraft forums might be a good place to start. Records show that he was active there within the last month or so, at least: http://www.computercraft.info/forums2/index.php?/user/27-dan200/ Also found this, His Github repository, last active 9 days ago...

    ReactorCraft: can ComputerCraft read a hydrogen preheater's temperature?

    I can confirm the error, attaching a computer above a pulse jet furnace and attempting to execute the following code: local pjf = peripheral.wrap("down") print(pjf.getTemperature()) And the error message: PJFDutyCycle:2: attempt to index ? (a nil value) Kind of put the breaks on using a...

    If he doesn't have an API, I think the key information to take away from this is that it's "on the list" rather than "in development".
