Btw to be clear, i misunderstood how eyes worked and thought you needed three things, to be insane enough, to have read the book and to have had an eye at one point. Turns out i was wrong on the last, but this still helps players who have no idea what im talking about because they've never progressed enough to know what lies within. So... its a free eye And more.  I remember pulling my hair out about ender eyes last time i played OMP-i and could have sworn I had read the bad people book.E: Confirmed, Chunk Loader has a bug with its aspects, Talonos is informed.

Nah, Talonos had to hit a logical point to content freeze everything in order to polish, keeping on updating mods would cause issues. FOR EXAMPLE, updating chisel has terrible, terrible consequences!*  *The entire ship vanishes.

You know, reading all this talk about iguana tweeks made me think of something, an alternative take on MC's tool progression. Anything can mine anything, but using the wrong tools causes massively increased damage to it, lower yields, increased hunger, debuffs or a combination of and possibly more. What you get depends on how "wrong" the tool is for the job. You want to mine diamonds with wooden tools? Sure you can, it'll cost you a pick a mine and make you sick from the effort. I guess you could make the secondary effects magnified if you use a low-durability tool to mine something way above its grade too. Use the last of your wooden tools bar to sneak in mining a diamond? That's going to be alot of hunger. It'd need work to make sure its not horribly unfun, but its gotta be a good alternative to "ugh, cant mine this yet." or accidentally destroying something because you didn't know.

McFrugal posted:I know you guys are trying to make jokes about awful/exploity trees but I actually do kindof like the idea of growing a magic tree that you then modify to make it do things. Like a really weird multiblock structure. I ain't joking.  Magically loving around with tree genetics would be neat, and having to support them with things like specific pollens, soils, waters and solutions to keep the tree healthy would also be neat. Foresty without the pain in the arse.

If you're going to be playing modded minecraft with you're kids, I cant recommend Babby's First Space Race enough. The oregen is plentiful and the hqm book is detailed on how to build the various contraptions. Its great for teaching anyone how to play, but if they get bored theirs still rocket ships and ores to mine and all the rest of that good stuff. Wheres "Babby's First Eldritch Horror" Rocko? Actually on that note: Shukaro, are you still working on that "Better than HQM" mod?

Enzer posted:It is doable, it would just require a lot of work and re-thinking, which might be honestly good for Blightfall to keep it from getting stale like the Material Energy maps did. Make it a technological setting and have it so that between the surface being deadly, the underground is full of ruins and technology you can hook up. Basically, Star Wars: The Old Republic's Taris mixed with Fallout, sprinkled with death flowers.  Plus you could have neat points of interest, accidentally hooking up a reactor that starts leaking, but fixing it up gives you a working reactor? Exploring the dusty ruins of bookshops, looking for leather to scrape by? Using railway systems to travel quickly through the less-dangerous underground?

Vib Rib posted:But I seriously do not like the idea of him bringing back "Aura". TC4 benefited in so many ways from moving away from that system. I don't miss it. It was really hard to keep track of, it was nebulous, it was almost impossible to control, and it let things dry up. At least waiting for a node to recharge is a steady process, Aura was so obfuscated you might eventually just dry up an area and then that's it, you're finished forever. I really hope he has a CV style system planned. Rip open a node and breathe aura into a area at a greater rate.

Regarding Skyblock maps, if you've done one before, you really should accelerate the early game. The entire focus of a skyblock is to work with minimal resources towards maximum automation, stepping over the dirt, wood, water and cobble limited steps isn't exactly getting you near the end!

Eschers Basement posted:You could also use it to cut through Thaumcraft stupidity - have completed research and fragments available in dungeons, making it so you can skip the terrible research game if you explore instead. That'd go nicely with my earlier burble about a "Fallout / SWTOR Taris" style ruined yet technologically advanced world. You want power? Small scale generators do still exist, and so does the ruins of the power grid. You might be able to tap into the latter and drain whatever dredges are left but you really need to find and fix up that local reactor. Oh, good job hero! You fixed the reactor. Unfortunately the hardened power lines leading to one of the nearby automated military bases are still running. The Kill-Bots are coming.

No, letting them do something clever is fine. You just need to layer the trickery. Killbots example: Turning on the reactor "floods" the lower level in radiactive material, cutting off your entrance. You need to clean that up. Meanwhile power is heading towards the killbot factory, thats already reactivated its own defenses and is preparing to send out monsters. Normal player? not going to be aware of this and panicking about radioactive spillage. Clever player? You could cut the power before then, but you still have a cleanup to worry about. Eitherway, the killbot factory is online now. Unless... Cleverist player? You already head out and shut down the factory while it was mostly inert. But you did that with less gear then you could have had because you had very little power. Preparation wins out! Thyrork fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Oct 7, 2015 |

SugarAddict posted:I had my own idea of a adventure modpack that revolved around a gigantic sprawling space station that you had go reclaim and rebuild/repair critical systems to open up new areas of the space station so you could use their unique recources or with machines and setups already done and/or does things cheaper than you could do it your self. Sounds neat and the idea of stomping around on a space station, finding obscure laboratories, repairing reactors and raiding warehouses reminds me of Metroid Fusion.

Working with a complex electrical system could be fun, as long as the failure states is poor optimization, not "your poo poo exploded." Basically, IC2 would be pretty good for all this if: A) Machines overloaded "crash" and need to be fixed with tools, not EXPLODE and ruin possibly more stuff. B) The wrench wasn't such a piece of poo poo. Seriously. gently caress you. Yes, you. Why in the name of everything that's goddamned sacred did that get passed as a design choice? * C) The electric wrench should be a durability = energy version of the above, and not a piece of poo poo. What the gently caress is wrong with you, IC2 devs? I seriously cant  hard enough to explain my hate for this. The "Oh we have a flawless version that costs oodles of energy stop complaining" is NOT valid in the slightest, BECAUSE ITS NOT ENABLED BY DEFAULT.*D) Bad wiring should affect you in a non-lethal but annoying way. Slowness, Blindness, Mining Fatigue, that kind of stuff. E) Bad design and energy grids should punish you with inefficiently, not failure. Big Reactors gets this. F) Nuclear reactors exploding is unfun, but I could see a desire to have some kind of punishment mechanic for failure here. Leakage thats really dangerous but non-fatal? *: I might have issues with the wrench. SParE ThE WrenCH, SpoIL THe MANChiLD. Thyrork fucked around with this message at 15:17 on Oct 15, 2015 |

I've been enjoying Regrowth. Word of warning, it has a few unpopular mods in it. To me, so far, It's been a mod that's felt more like a showcase for Botania and Magical Crops (kind of like how Blightfall championed Thaumcraft. Its also kind of neat to have a minimlistic need to mine, and instead a enormous hunger for space. You always need more space! Plus it kind of has that same vibe of a overwhelmingly hostile world, but dead instead of infected. Monsters come at you in honestly scary hoards and theirs a few really nasty types mixed in. This is the first time in along time that I've felt required to expand as a walled enclave and not just some haphazard base/house. Wylker has a letsplay of it from a few(?) versions ago if you want to preview it. E: Word of warning if you do, there's a few irksome "waste time" steps/quests that hamper you early on. I encorage mild use of creative NEI to help "get on with it." as their is so much to do. Swap Botania flowers for the colour you need until you get the seeds to grow the ones you want, and when you get the repeatable metal essence quests (such as Essence of Copper), do one, then give yourself the remainder you need to make the metal seed.

Vib Rib posted:What problem did that not solve, exactly? People playing singleplayer and never moving on to active generation, to the point they'd edit the configs and turn off withering? Was that really so common and troublesome the option had to be removed? Large numbers of passive mana generation gobbles up server ticks, creating lag and instability. Technically this would also effect single player, as single player is a server now?  Eitherway, that was the issue. I'm actually curious how far you'd need to go to start feeling the burn of passive mana gen on the server.

The biggest problem with TC5 and Blightfall is that tainted substances become Dust now. That's going to be a slightly less optimistic way of saving the world, since what you're really doing is killing it. Delightfully bleak as that is, I could still see "Blightrise" or something similar replace it. Trapped underground when the surface became overrun. Using small, isolated bunkers and the supplies within to rebuild the world. Fallout but with the nukes replaced by a invasive Biohazard. In that regard, it'd probably be a really fun formula for a ruined magi-tech cityscape, its surrounding lands and surviving underground infrastructure. Not a world covered in blight, but certain hyper-dangerous points of interest would be. Points of interest that will be vital to your survival. You'd probably want to expand Blightfall's extra monsters if you were going to do this. "Infected Workers." and that kind of thing, lurking inside laboratories and factories. Biodomes that once studied the Eldritch life that have been shattered, "leaking" out the taint storms. Reactors that stand dormant, ready to be used but at what cost? As fun an idea as all this is however, It wouldn't be Blightfall. Blightfall was about surviving on a hyper-lethal surface world in your tiny safe spaces. "Blightrise" would be closer to Regrowth, a world in ruins with deadly points of interest to explore and piece together what the gently caress happened while salvaging what you can to survive and thrive. Maybe not a bad pitch after all.

Think I'd just flip it on its head. Passive gen is turned to be endgamey, multiblocky but good and you only need a few. Endoflames remove their "mana needed" step but still have their hard limit of fuel burn (I think its a block of coal).
