 Gregtech is my bitch  . That pink dust to the left of redstone is chrome and iridium to the right of redstone. I really should make a fusion reactor but gently caress that  Maybe someday when I am really bored I'll do it.

metasynthetic posted:What you're describing I haven't encountered before. It may or may not be a bug, I would need a picture to say for sure. The barriers only check for a partner on block updates, so basically when they're placed, on redstone toggle, neighbor block changing, etc. If there's some kind of (non-vaporizable) obstacle in the way between two widely spaced resonators that gets removed later, no update occurs without one of those occuring. This is to avoid constantly checking if the path is clear every few ticks. We do have railcraft, so that might be it? And the problem Nastyman described, about random patches of dirt that can't be tilled until replaced. Putting something ontop and removing it doesn't fix it, you have to dig up all the farmland, and put down the very same blocks. It's weird, and I have no idea how to fix that, no idea where to even start looking. I don't think we tried to do a block update though. Maybe give that a try.

We had a bit of a cow infestation, as I found out the chronotyper in the breeding facility was 1 block short to cover the whole room, enabling the cows to overwhelm the... Walls. And in the slaughter area with the calves, the slaughterhouse had dead spots as well. They are all dead now, and I will have to reinforce the walls with spikes or something before I repopulate it.

I think it is when there are several in one square/block, and they start pushing eachother around. Some will then glitch through 1 thick walls, or suffocate inside it. Making the walls 2 thick should suffocate them every time instead of releasing them. If I could figure out how to get ICBM mod gun turrets to fire on cows, that would fix it, as we have turrets around the perimeter against mods, and AA guns in the middle for wisps. Sounds awesome when you are deep underground, and the guns start up...!

I solved this issue in 1.5.2 by having the Chronotyper drop babies into a pit that had space underneath the breeding pen. They're quite content congregating directly underneath their parents, making it easy for the Grinder to kill off the grown up kids. I'm currently dicking around with crafty turtles to transmute dirt into gravel and then into clay for automatic processing into bricks. I guess I could do the same thing with cobble as a parallel line. And I guess I could expand into performing a similar trick with my large excess of jungle logs to eventually turn them into diamonds. Oh hey, I guess I could go whole hog and transmute dirt to diamonds if I wanted to (dirt->gravel->clay~>clay blocks->iron ingot->gold ingot->diamond) but I have a greater need for construction material at the moment over diamonds. (Reason why turtles is that they don't damage minium stones while they're crafting with them) And then I'll get my bank of auto processor machines shoved into the basement linked to a Logistics Pipe system I've been kicking around for a while. Once they're out of workshop proper I can dedicate the walls to be banks upon banks of AE Monitors to go with my AE system and DSU extreme storage wall. And I *still* need to prettify the Mystcraft tower up. And restock the 'meat' factory. And create a void Mystcraft book to shove an array of MFR Lasers in (or try it in lower earth orbit instead, hmm...). And...and...and...

Dimensional Doors, Portal frames, I'll take anything. The 150 block travel between my bed/farm/mobgrinder to the Skyden hub made me limit my travels a lot. Even with sugarcanes to harvest near the road, it was just extra tedium. And if I moved my stuff to the Den itself, that meant a huge travel time on nether/end (and I didn't want to rebuild the mob grinder). Maybe I should've made boats, heh.

I'm playing TerraFirmaCraft, and I'd like a mod that adds more of an 'infrequent' existential/military threat. I'm currently playing with spawn-mobs off, because getting absolutely overrun every night is too annoying to me, and I really feel it only wastes my time when I have to build a log cube around myself every 12 minutes and browse the Internet until morning when I can resume prospecting, or whatever. Knowing that I can only expect enemies at night is fairly cheesy, as well. Assuming spawn-animals still allows bears to spawn, the occasional threat of bear attack is more what I'm looking for. If you're familiar with Dwarf Fortress, you know what I'm looking for. Occasional "invasions" or infrequent spawns of aggressive wilderness enemies (day and night) would simultaneously break up the gameplay but not create a constant annoyance. Is there any mod that does something like this?

Welp, because the Mystcraft books I tried in creative were hosed up and didn't seem to actually teleport, so I fast-tracked through the rest of the storyline. I still want to make a proper themed Thaumcraft area and a non-cheatsheet Thaumomnicron, but do you guys know why the linking books in Skyden particularly won't actually, like... link? The reason I needed a cheat sheet was that the research table would crash the game when I tried using some knowledge fragments I'd traded for. If it helps I was in creative mode at the time and trying to use a linking modifier to make it spawn a platform (for the 'make Fez into Minecraft' thing being able to make platforms to build on in the middle of the air would be handy). If that doesn't work I might try dicking around with a new map in the same modpack.

I don't want to limit my travel just at night, either. If there were a mod that made monsters spawn very sporadically during the daytime (and not burn up), that would be more what I'm looking for. Basically, I want more bears.

I thought the mod pack worked more like making things into a tower defense game and replacing night spawns with portals you could turn on and off, but I guess that would make too much sense. One thing that's turned me off from minecraft mods is how people seem to think the game needs MORE combat with even worse enemies. Minecraft combat is not fun, and the enemies it has are really badly designed. But I've never seen any mods that try to fix it, just ones that either give you more weapons (doesn't help that much, the weapons aren't really designed with situations you encounter in mind) or makes what's there even less fun (mo creatures adds wraiths that fly around and shoot fire to the night mobs GEE THANKS, I needed early game to be more of a near impossible slog). But pretty much every minecraft enemy is the opposite of a fun challenge and they don't work together to make a fun or fair challenge. About the only thing that works against them is cheap tricks with block setups. The peaceful table is pretty much the only decent fix for this (remove combat but the option added is kind of balanced). At the very least I think a zelda-style lock-on option would be neat.

It does work like that, but I don't want to do that. Getting rushed by that many enemies is too much for two people to handle, and you have to place a block which the monsters "attack"... Not really conducive to TFC where having several small settlements is common. The mod has a config file which lets you adjust parameters for how often mobs spawn at night, but it didn't take effect on TFC. Night-only mobs are not what I'm looking for, anyway.

I'm surprised that you're complaining about the wraiths when mo' creatures has recently added an even worse mob. It's a golem that, when you get within a certain (too wide) radius, activates and sucks up blocks from the surrounding area and throws them at you for massive damage. It took about ten minutes for one to spawn near my house and almost completely dismantle it before I said "gently caress this" and disabled golems from spawning. Really, the only reason I add mods that add mobs is for atmospheric purposes. Without them the world feels so... empty. There was this really cute mod I liked called "AtmosMobs" but that doesn't appear to be updating anymore.

Mo' Creatures is a mod I'd love to like, but the designs just seem to be stupid. A lot of the critters suffer from "too many blocks" syndrome, which makes them seem out of place. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a vanilla mob that uses more than 10 shapes in its design, but you have roughly that amount being used for jellyfish in Mo' Creatures. Jellyfish! All you really need to communicate "jellyfish" is one semitransparent block with some fronds underneath. But the monsters really are basically terrible, with absolutely no thought given to balance. I don't know who looked at creepers, the most annoying mob in the game, and thought "what we need is something that can do this level of damage over and over again, without provocation." Honestly it seems like every vaguely good idea that Mo' Creatures has gets adapted into being part of vanilla Minecraft anyway. Butterflies might be coming soon, after all these new flower types. Hopefully. Butterflies and the smaller marine life (jellyfish, crabs, fish) are just about the only things in Mo' Creatures I'd like to see in vanilla.

I'd like the mini-golems and bigger golem to be a boss encounter, possibly something in the vein of the goblin army of Terraria. Craft item, spawn bigger golem + its core, big golem spawns smaller golems. Beat for prizes. But them and the ogres can just gently caress right off as normal monsters.
