RFTools - Support and Suggestions

[McJty]

I thought it was an option attached to each GUI honestly. Makes perfect sense why it's one colour for all then.

Everything is possible of course but at this moment it is just a single option that is used by two blocks: modular storage and storage scanner.

I actually like the raised box outline of the old style better.

I do not like the default "new" colors.

New online manual button (and way to change GUI style) from within every RFTools GUI:

Nice.

Just released RFTools 3.10beta2 with the new security system. Needs testing!

The manual contains information about how this security system works. Feel free to ask questions here if you have any.

I request a config option to increase the amount of energy generated from the Endergenic Generator by some factor. It's the coolest power system ever, but I'll continue using Big Reactors until this can compete.
What are the current RF/t stats for a decently designed Endergenic generator system? I'd like to configure it to be more than 10,000 RF/t for a slightly-better-than-decent system. That way a well optimized system will be able to compete with a Big Reactor.

I also agree with this, while the generators are nice, and super useful, they don't compare with to a Big Reactor. And though im all for losing power in the gain of awesomeness, I don't think many others will consider using it if they have 'better alternaives'.

A simpler solution would be to just remove big reactors from the pack

No; while I want the Endergenic generator to be an awesome and viable alternative, I also want Big Reactors for the REALLY massive stuff.
(I'm also nerfing it heavily in my pack in terms of both fuel consumption and power produced, so they'll be useful but require more infrastructure)

and here I am not even having made a big reactor once in my entire life

They're fun. They're more fun when they actually consume fuel, though; if you use the default configs then you won't go through much fuel at all. I haven't played with my new configs, so in all my worlds so far I've never gone through more than a stack of fuel in any one world. I don't play my worlds very long, but still.

They might be fun but I have no need for them and they are one of the reasons I "hate" rf.

What don't you like about them?
EDIT: Maybe move this to a different thread/PM.

Naah, if you need lots of power, use a reactor craft reactor

Ok... with THAT I can see power creep being an issue.
Sometime, I should actually play with Reika's mods...

 

[Lethosos]

Not hard... you'll need RoC, ReC, ElecC, ChC, GeoStrat, MeteorC, and NEI. I generally add Expanded Redstone and Void Monster for good measure. That's basically the sum of his works without needing any modifications.

 

[Padfoote]

Guys, take it to a new thread. It has nothing to do with RFTools anymore.

 

[Pyure]

Nothing wrong with adding a config to RFTools, but you can achieve the same goal just by using the config for BR. And there's no reason they should compete anyway since there's no reason they need to be in the same pack.

 

[McJty]

Check this thread:

http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum...ys-rftools-endergenic-generators-and-their#c3

A few people are generating a relatively decent amount of power.

Also make sure to infuse the generators as that makes them more efficient.

But yes, I can consider increasing the benefits as it is rather hard to get decent results. How much better should it be by default?

 

[Pyure]

Its a tough question to answer because it sort of depends on how easy it is to get fuel. I'm not sure what sort of assumptions you can make there but a lot of packs have either ender-lillies or MFR/EIO enderman spawners and that sort of thing.
