What on earth...(MF2)

[Hoff]

So I have no idea what these cave things are I keep running into while strip mining. As long as you're inside the natural formation of the cave you have weakness and mining fatigue 3. No TC4 nodes, no infernal mobs, and not hungry sick or dying. I really have no idea on this one ._.

 

[RedBoss]

I know this effect happens when I'm near abyssal stone formations, I've just never researched it. Either way I don't believe it's exclusive to MF2 since I use ResRise

It might be a natural gas pocket, from Mariculture.

 

[Hoff]

That's actually fairly plausible... I am under an ocean... But I don't get why those random caves would form and get the effect too...

E:

Aha I bet this is it.

Try some fire to test if it's a gas pocket.*

well, there already are torches placed down

Yeah those effects are what you get in a Mariculture Natural Gas Pocket . Unlike Emasher's natural gas, mine isn't flammable(yet, maybe)

 

[TechnoTuffy]

Do any of you know how to gather natural gas so I can make scuba lens's?

 

[joshie]

Place some sort of tank next to an air pump (inside a gas pocket). Then either power the pump with RF, or right click it. This will suck up the air around it, and place it inside the tank. You can then bottle up the gas by right clicking the tank, or however the tank needs to you get at the fluid).

I tried putting an air pump under water, put a tank next to it and then powered it up with a leadstone energy cell, but nothing happened

What does a gas pocket look like?

What does a gas pocket look like?

A cave with air and strange potion effects.

 

[TechnoTuffy]

Ok then how do I gather that air. I need details

 

[joshie]

That's what this topic is about, and I just told you, you need to be in a cave with the natural gas

 

[TechnoTuffy]

But i tried it and it don't work. I use a pump, put it next to a drum. Powered the pump with RF and nothing happens

 

[apemanzilla]

Was the cave giving you potion effects like the OP states?

 

[TechnoTuffy]

I had mining fatigue

 

[apemanzilla]

I had mining fatigue

Not from a GeoStrata cave crystal or anything?

 

[TechnoTuffy]

Is the drum a good tank to use for gathering natural gas. Also do i need to use a gas turbine?

Try an OpenBlocks tank. Much more versatile.
