He rewrote his mod so that it conflicts with forge in as many things as possible, after he dropped it. I think there was a "better than forge" project, which would port the couple cool things his mod had to forge, but I think there's better alternatives out there for everything neat he actually did so

Rotarycraft features machines that will progressively get faster, for an exponential curve of energy required, so there's always some gain to be had for building dumb amounts of power gen. That said rotarycraft used to be useable if a bit spergy, but is now a pile of garbage due to the "progression" (read: grind) forced by the mod author, so I'd recommend against that. Instead, I wish more mods would adopt the "put 100x the amount of electricity this machine requires, and we'll give it 10x speed" mechanic. Especially the MFR bedrock mining laser drill thing.

I host my minecraft (or other games) server on a VPS with the following: 20 cores of Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620, 94 gigs of ram.  Knowing the right people in the right places is the best.It's really nice when you can just throw more ram or cpu power at a problem. Especially in minecraft, where a lot of mods are written like absolute poo poo (Hi, reactorcraft). Speaking of reactorcraft, I haven't built any reactors in over a year. Is there a max  reactor mod out yet, that actually works? I like big reactors on a server because you can actually build one without a mind blowing grind, but for some creative dicking about with nukular fission, I'd like something on the level of reactorcraft, but with less compatibility/performance bugs.

OMP i is really really cool. I'm having tons of fun with it. Had some weird stuff going on though. I had a couple crashes while hosting the game as lan (too lazy to set up my own server), but then someone downloaded the thing and couldn't join. Said something about mod rejections. I reinstalled the thing (saved options.txt and world), and now it works great and doesn't crash any more and everyone can join fine again. I think updating the modpack a bunch somehow broke it? It's was really odd cause we all had the same versions of everything, yet the two new people couldn't join. Also, meat ingots are the best food.

I'm getting 23k RF/t out of my enderium coil turbine at 900rpm at 18% power setting (82% inserted rods), with 16 total fuel rods (4 rods, 4 tall each), and only a 7x7x10 turbine.  I'd go for 1800rpm and get some 55k out of it, but I don't have enough cyanite yet for all those turbine paddles.

Rocko Bonaparte posted:They may be using a different pack with a different power output multiplier. Also, I never really hit the books on Big Reactors, but my intuition is that the same methods for passive cooling are not what one would want for active cooling. So I am not so sure about that resonant ender when actively cooling. I *think* OMP i might have a higher multiplier. Also, I'm pretty sure the passive coolant doesn't do anything for active cooled reactors. e: Also, I implemented a simple PID controller for turbines with OpenComputers. It regulates turbine speed via control rod insertion, rather than limiting steam intake. I tried to do it with energy stored (so as to not waste power), but the 1 million RF buffer turbine has is too low and response time for the turbine is like 30 seconds, so it just keeps alternating between 0 and 100%. Is there any way to connect opencomputers to enderio? A couple of those 50 million cells should be plenty large enough buffer for PID to settle down easily. edit 2: Is there any way to upgrade what top tier enderio conduits can handle? Can I edit a config, or will I have to drag 10 conduits around my base when I build my second turbine? Truga fucked around with this message at 13:47 on May 27, 2015 |

Huh, you're right. It's huge. Wonder why no guides ever mentioned that. (thanks for mentioning the simulator btw, I now know I need 3 turbines Either way, I'm using cryo gel, because I couldn't be bothered removing it after upgrading. I guess it was a good move after all.

I posted a screenshot of my reactor setup in my irc channel, and my bro asked "does the RPM wobble as the load on generator changes?" and I was like "nah, that's not how power in mincraft works, unforunately", but it got me thinking. Unforunately, I can't set the load on coil per % like I can with control rods on the reactor, but I can turn it on/off 20 times per second. It's not huge, but it should be enough for a basic PWM and get a 1 second duty cycle in increments of 5%. This means I can make the turbine spin at a constant 1800 RPM for maximum efficiency, and simply vary the amount of power produced by changing the duty cycle.

Rocko Bonaparte posted:Well, I stand corrected. I guess my intuition had it backwards. I would assume passive cooling would sink heat that could be used for steam. Rocko Bonaparte posted:I suspect your proportional gain is too large if your PID is oscillating. Nah, the issue is, the turbine energy buffer goes full or empty in 5-10 seconds while RPM takes like a minute to ramp back up/spool down. It works, technically, but it's ugly. I don't think PID can do anything about this, because the buffer is too small for the long response time, I'd have to set manual restrictions on it depending on load, but then I lose the point of using a PID (me not having to maintain the reactor). I did a better thing now though. I have the turbine at optimal RPM, and I'm not wasting any yellorium/RF. Here's how it works:  PID controls the RPM and keeps it as close to 1800 as possible by using control rods. Turbine runs a duty cycle that keeps it as close to 50% energy as possible. If I add a load to the reactor, the turbine RPM starts dropping due to increased duty cycle, causing the control rods to retract, increasing steam flow. If I remove load, the turbine speeds up, causing the control rods to extend, reducing steam flow. This is so much my poo poo.  e:

Hagop posted:That's really cool, would your program scale well for a reactor that was outputting steam to multiple turbines? I'll know sometime during the weekend when I should have enough cyanite (and other crap) for my 2nd turbine. I think it should just work as is, but it depends on how the reactor will distribute steam to multiple turbines. If it puts even (or close to) amounts into all turbines. If it puts all steam into one until full, then the second, I'll have to do some steam routing via limiting flow into separate turbines. Either way, it should be fairly easy. to implement well enough Once I get it going with multiple turbines I'll clean up the code a bit and post it.

Last year I tried running a server and there was some kind of firewall in place that restricted us to LAN play. Is it possible to make a server work like a LAN somehow, if that makes sense? "Open to LAN" feature requires very specific mods if you want to actually do "advanced" things like op a guy. Just run a dedicated server on your pc, then have people join that, it'll end up being much easier than the alternative. And yes, other people should see the server like normal if they're on the same LAN.

Rocko Bonaparte posted:Ender IO fluid conduits has been really fiddly with me when connecting empty, new conduit to ones already filled with stuff. Is there some trick there? I wind up having to remove all the fluid conduit that is in-use and rebuild with the new extension. It's very tedious because I usually knock out something else in the conduits while I'm at it. AFAIK, this is an intended feature. A new ender pipe will never connect automatically to a pipe that already contains liquid, so you can easily run two separate lines next to each other. Just continue building your line as empty, then use a wrench to attach it to the already filled pipe on the one end.

So I'm playing minecraft again, because vivecraft is sick. I want to mod a bit, but I don't want any of the heavyweight mods because that will tank my FPS and lead to headaches etc, which I obviously want to avoid. We're probably getting tinker's construct, simply because it has both ore duplication and really nice tools, and I think it was redlogic that has redpower kind of wires and basically nothing else in it, so surely that won't tank my fps right? Are there any other recommended lightweight mods?

Dunno really where to post this, but my server is acting weird and I have zero idea why. The server is running Thermos 1.7.10.1614. I'm trying to do something with vanilla pistons and I'm having a problem with the sticky piston. I'm fairly certain 0 or 1 tick pulses should have sticky pistons leave the block out, but on my server 1 tick pulse just extends and retracts the block 9 times out of 10, and a 0 tick pulse doesn't even move the piston. This is probably due to something with Thermos server, isn't it? e: not thermos server, tried with cauldron, same thing. Which is good, as vivecraft doesn't work well with cauldron. Did forge fix some minecraft redstone/piston glitches or something?
