It's currently in Alpha at the moment. Chickenbones has done a superb job with the power transfer so now I guess it's up to Soaryn to finish it. :D

Yeah the powersystem looks really nice. watched matta and CB testing it for the first time, it looked awsome and really promising.
Finally something different than ables/pipes :D

I see your open for ideas, and I have one you might like or have already thought about. How about changing the name of Aluminium Ore to Bauxite Ore. You might ask why change it? and then players will likely ask "what the hell is this Ore???".

My thoughts on changing the ore name, is not only is this in real life where you actually get most Aluminium from, but seems to have a better balance/fitting within your mod. Bauxite Ore for me ties in nicely with the mod name Xycraft, Probably because it has a X in the name :this: . And for players, they would learn and understand, in why Aluminium Ore is called Bauxite Ore.

Another suggestion would be to have some kind of dedicated machine for processing Bauxite Ore into Aluminium, but you probably have some cool ideas for machines anyway.

A big shout out to Xycraft team for the fantastic work been done to this mod :good:
Love the wireless energy lasers :yahoo:
linky for Bauxite Orehttp://wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauxite

First off... Laser Light Show = :yahoo: :thumbsup: You and the team have done some really cool looking things.

However, as some others have asked, I'm still not sure what the overall goal is for the functionality of this mod is. I have read the wiki, which seems to be the same thing located in OP here as well as on minecraftforum, but I don't quite understand what the mod is. Watching the different streams and such, I have been lucky enough to see the cool light shows and such (those poor poor villagers lol). But I didn't get to watch everything, so maybe I missed some of the explanation.

I like the additional crops and such. But from what sounds like a lot of world gen additions, i'm really trying to figure out if this mod is going to be something like a IC2 but with more futuristic elements (lasers) or is it completely different? Or is this based on something else like another game or story line?

Don't get me wrong, I think the mod is looking like it will be very visually amazing!!! :clapping: But I just haven't been able to deduce the added functionality from the descriptions provided. Either way, adding laser light show to my builds will be fun. :grin:

Can there be a config option so you can choose whether you have Aluminum ore or Aluminium ore? Just to set what the client displays.

I'll suggest it to him and see what he thinks, but don't be too hopeful.

You could think of it like a IC-like mod but it will have many unseen features in the future. It will be one of the very highest tech tiers on the ladders of all mods.

Thanks for the reply. So am I assuming correctly that simple things like crops will be used in the beginning stages? Along with gathering of the different ore's and crystals in the beginning, and then simple items will be crafted/used in conjunction with the items from the other mods leading up to the higher tier items from XyCraft being what is used in endgame?

My imagination can run wild with what this mod can be doing. So if my questions seem a bit redundant, its only because I fear that with the number of different options for tools/gear/machines that certain mods will be utilized less than others due to a lack of understanding of the desired function/use of the mods. I look forward to more information (and hopefully more video) of this mod in the future.

Your assumptions are correct.
