Bug FTB Infinity - Cursed Earth Mob Spawner

[Aeslehc]

Crafting the reinforced watering can without losing a heart is only possible with cross-mod exploits. I don't know what exploit allows it but it is either something using fake players (ought to be fixed) or item duplication which is something that should be fixed regardless.

It's not an exploit in that context, the mod that allows you to do it is doing exactly what it is designed to do, and it certainly doesn't involve fake players or any form of behaviour not designed to be part of the mod.

It's far more of an oversight of the mod pack authors rather than the mod authors.

Uhh, no it isn't? Watering can and cursed earth are both from ExU. So it's obviously intended. The whole point of the cursed earth itself is that you can make compact dark room mob farms to lessen lag caused on a server. A lot of the ExU stuff are low-lag alternatives to other mods' features.

Hmmmm ok you got me there. Still not going to use it

So what you're doing is basically bragging that you're cheating. Great you know how to cheat the game because you find a loop hole in the code. You know that's not the spirit of how it was intended. You're not giving specifics because one of two reasons. A: you're lying and just trolling in which case that's just terrible and you should find better things to do with your time. B: you're wanting to feel special about yourself because you found how to get around the game's mechanics.

Guess what my exploit is better than yours. It's called creative mode. That's right. I can make all the reinforced watering cans I want. It's not even an exploit. It's how it was intended. If you're wanting to make the community aware of the exploit so it can be fixed great. That's contributing to the community. If you're just waiving your flag in the air yelling "gee isn't it pretty, I really love my flag, it's the best flag in the world, don't you agree?!", then that is just sad. Basically it's poor manners so knock it off.

Wow, some angry people here.

It's not cheating, any more than a a quarry is cheating, I'm sure Notch never intended for people to be able to collect diamonds at the rate of several hundred per hour, but you can and if it's cheating then gosh, we'd better all head to the sin bin.

The reason I'm not saying how, although I've given some pretty heavy hints I feel, is because I don't want it to get changed, which I'm pretty sure it would be.

As for your point on creative mode... what is the point? We all have it if we want.

Guys, this is going abseloutly in the wrong direction and completly OP.
Don´t make the Mods come around here we have such a nice community
At the end it doesn´t matter if its an exploid or not or if creative is the same or what Notch wanted.
Its a modded sandbox game and as long as you are not playing together with other people or competetive all that counts is if you are enjoing the way you play.

You do not want to use the "exploid", don´t do it. You do want to cheat it in by creative. Just do.

We're not angry. No modded isn't cheating. But you aren't telling what it is because you know it would be changed. If it was operating as intended then the mod author wouldn't change it.

You can spin it however you want but you like abusing the mod combination that you found.

 

[Aeslehc]

As I've said repeatedly, the mods are working exactly as the mod authors intended. The oversight, if it is such, appears to be by the mod pack makers. Any change, if it were made, would be made by the mod pack makers.

Say it how many times you want, it's not abuse or exploitation, it's just as it stands a way of getting watering cans, no different than getting diamonds from a quarry.

 

[Zelfana]

Your analogy doesn't apply to the reinforced watering can. You don't lose hearts permanently if you mine diamonds manually. But you should lose a heart making the soul fragment required for every reinforced watering can. If you're creating that resource or the reinforced watering can in another way it is an exploit. I'm assuming the mod you're talking about also enables some other unintentional stuff. If it is EE3 btw, that is still under development and will get changed a lot.

I know what guys & gals, pretend I never said anything.
