Gregtech & the omniwrench

[Loufmier]

Fixed several small Bugs.
Added six new Omniwrenches, which work with IC², GT, BC, UE and vanilla Stuff.
Iron Wrench with 100 Durability (you need 10 Durability to dismantle normal Machines)
Bronze Wrench with 200 Durability (overrides the Recipe of the IC² Bronze Wrench)
Steel Wrench with 500 Durability
Tungstensteel Wrench with 5000 Durability
Electric Wrench with 15 uses (overrides IC² E-Wrench)
Advanced Wrench with 100 uses (needs Lithium Battery and Tungstensteel)

advanced wrench? who would use such crap? i mean vanilla ic2 wrench is completely useless for often usage because its energy storage is very limited, and require often recharge or battpack. and if you are into ic2, you`re probably have such thing, so additional energy storage is simply useless, especially for such cost.

its yet again that approach of greg: add an item that`s is commonly used, but with higher price, thus inferior, and then nerf original, so inferior item wont look so pathetic.[DOUBLEPOST=1370772895][/DOUBLEPOST]

I like to think as the omniwrench only works with mods that add wrenches, and not with screws, those are for the screwdriver.

The "uses" on the electric and advanced wrenches are the amount of times one can use it before it needs recharging.
So that's what you would need an advanced wrench for a MUCH larger battery.
And no doubt a cooler sprite as well.

can you explain how it can has bigger storage with lithium battery, which is same as re-battery? and why even care about its storage if you`re most likely to have a battpack or something with same functionality?

Lithium battery actually has 6x the charge capacity of the RE-battery.

hm. had to check it again, and its actually 10x the charge of the re-battery

The poll at the top fully sums out this thread

You are a douche

Did he add an option do disable this (IMHO dumb) behaviour?

Probably not. His way is the Right Way(TM) (C) (R), after all.

He adds options do disable most of his nerfs, so I expect to find an option for this, too.

Personally I hate this completely useless and irrelevant addition to postings. There is text, I start reading it, and then: Argh, only dumb crap that nobody is interested in. And it is part of every damn post. Ugh. Can't you just add it to your sig? Or even better: remove it completely?
This is not only aimed at you (you were just the first one with this crap, that I replied to somewhere), but at every one of this type (sent via tapatalk or whatever, noone cares).

where are my tin buckets and 16 scaffold then?

you can't really change the tapatalk one unless you change it in the settings, which i think tapatalk 1 didn't have.

Can't see no image there.

Doesn't greg add that blue multitool thing too that just got a screwdriver added in... Kind of another dick move imo, the omnitool doesn't have a screwdriver addon at Elo's request, but then.. why am I even mentioning this... Greg doesn't give half a shit about anyone else.

Someone needs to make a modmod called Random Acts of Destruction (RAD!) that just adds failure as an option.

1% change furnce blows up.
0.5% chance a torch sets you on fire.

That sort of thing.

That actually sounds like an awesome plan and definitely has some potential. Also there could be mod integration so when you dismantle a machine theres a 2% chance of you getting an electrical shock and stuff.
Maybe me and a friend of me will work on that. We were already looking for a good idea

greg, is that you?

 

[King Lemming]

Honestly, I'm neutral on this one.

It's a trivial change on my end to circumvent his insane requirements, but at the same time I'm not sure if I see a real point.

You're thinking of the GraviSuite mod's GraviTool.

 

[Revemohl]

I just wonder who thought that having a 30% chance of losing your machines when trying to dismantle them was a good thing.
Thankfully no other (popular) mod has that "feature". GT doesn't count. Explosionsexplosions

No that is from the Gravitation Suite mod a long with the advanced drill and chain saw.

That would be the great dragon Alblaka who is the original author and creative mind of industry craft 1 and 2. Which is currently being maintained by Player and RichardG who have little control over the creativity of the mod and the great dragon who does has a habit of disappearing for long periods of time. This is also why IC2 has not changed at all for a very long time as the creative forces behind it are absent most of the time.

Yeah, well, less headache for you. Blows though.

I'm not sure about your association to greg on this one but alright

 

[DoctorOr]

The whole IC2 wrench mechanic is absurd and stupid to begin with.

But I find it interesting the droves of people who post here about how a mod isn't allowed to manage its own interactions.
