1 HP tank is 20mb
L2[00:00:18]
<Kodos>
So I'm using one 1*1 HP boiler per commercial
L3[00:00:22]
<Kodos>
Since they consume 20/t
L4[00:00:39]
<Kodos>
But for some reason, even though they're pushing directly into
an IE Cap, there's still a power surplus
L5[00:00:44]
<Kodos>
Thus causing them to heat excessively
L6[00:00:45]
<Natesky9> Only thing I can say is to
take out the capacitor and hook the lasers directly
L7[00:00:58]
<Kodos>
So put the engines on the back of the lasers?
L8[00:01:12]
<Natesky9> Well, hooked up to the
kinesis pipes
L9[00:02:46]
<Kodos>
Trying that, but I think the same is about to result
L10[00:04:42] <daniel> Engines heating up
is normal. Don't worry about it
L11[00:07:55]
<Kodos>
Will they explode? (I'm in 1.7.10, with RC 9.12.2)
L12[00:10:01] <daniel> No.
L13[00:11:50] <daniel> If they can't
output energy, they may stop working until you hit them with a
crowbar
L14[00:12:34]
<Kodos>
Right
L15[00:12:55]
<Kodos>
But my issue/question is, if the pipe they're pushing into can
accept more than they can generate, why are they still gaining
energy instead of pushing it all out
L16[00:13:27]
<Kodos>
Is it just because Kinesis pipes work differently than most
wires?
L17[00:13:29]
<Natesky9> Do you know how Thermal
expansion machines run faster the more full their internal buffer
is?
L18[00:13:37]
<Natesky9> Same thing
L19[00:15:15]
<Kodos>
So once they get up to full buffer, they'll be at 100%
efficiency? I'm sorry, I'm just confused and trying to
understand
L20[00:15:30]
<Natesky9> They'll stabiliza at
about 75% ish
L21[00:15:47]
<Natesky9> because that's the
point where they can output the most efficiently
L22[00:16:23]
<Kodos>
Well I've got one running red, one running orange
L23[00:16:29]
<Kodos>
And the RF inside them keeps going up
L24[00:16:36]
<Kodos>
Despite pushing into a 160 RF/t accepting pipe
L25[00:16:42]
<Kodos>
(Each engine outputs 40 RF/t
L26[00:16:49]
<Natesky9> Yes, that's
normal
L27[00:21:08]
<Natesky9> And yes, at full speed, an
industrial steam engine will output 40 eu/t
L28[00:24:34]
<Kodos>

No one wants to go to the nether and get the stuff for a blast
furnace yet lol
L30[00:24:54]

We all fucking hate the nether
L31[00:25:08]
<Natesky9> All you need is fire
resistance
L32[00:25:17]
<Natesky9> if you have IC2 installed,
get a hazmat suit
L33[00:25:23]
<Natesky9> Fire + fall
protection
L34[00:26:53]
<Kodos>
Doesn't it have like shit durability though
L35[00:27:09]
<Natesky9> Well, it's not meant
for combat
L36[00:27:29]
<Natesky9> If you want durable, get
the composite vest and a bunch of enchanted gear
L37[00:27:41]
<Kodos>
Yeah but don't the boots take damage when they mitigate the
fall damage?
L38[00:27:55]
<Natesky9> Yeah, but they're 4
rubber and a wool
L39[00:28:07]
<Natesky9> Carry a few pairs if
you're worried about them breaking
L40[00:29:08]

Also, happen to know what replaced BC's advanced crafting

increase the 0-damage range
L56[00:44:10]
<Natesky9> They do?
L57[00:44:36]
<Natesky9> I always had a wierd
bunny-hop at 3 blocks fall distance that would make them take

Player, does rubber boots lose durability when falling from
height?
L69[00:50:01]
<Natesky9> Yeah, they do
L70[00:50:48]
<Natesky9> iirc, they don't
completely negate all fall damage -- you can still end up on half
health if you fall a big distance in the nether
L71[00:51:17]
<Natesky9> your boots will take the
brunt of a few falls before breaking
L72[00:52:20]

It allow you to fall like 150 blocks

I do like that I can use the coke oven to make charcoal
L98[01:37:49] <Aroma1997> @Natesky9 imo The
only way to make composite armor woth a while would be to give it
something unique or so like explosion resistance or so, but I doubt
there's a way to make it woth a while without it being
op.
L99[01:38:03] <Aroma1997> If you have any

L104[01:41:24] <Aroma1997> There's no
point in having a lot of durability, if you don't even use it
up, before you get better armor
L105[01:42:29]
<Natesky9> Well, yes, but
"electric" armor is silly easy to get to
L106[01:43:12]
<Natesky9> but the problem is usually
that you get electric armor so quickly that you don't have at
least an MFE to charge it
L107[01:43:40]
<Natesky9> Which usually makes it
really efficient to use the composite vest until it breaks
L108[01:45:39]
<Natesky9> Ic2 isn't really
"too" combat based, as compared to say, EnderIO, where
most things require a mob drop
L109[01:47:03]
<Natesky9> However, one of the things
that I would suggest for the composite armor is knockback
resistance
L110[01:48:36]
<Natesky9> it's a very overlooked
stat, but is incredibly useful
L111[01:49:38]
<Natesky9> I actually forget, does the
composite vest give blast resistance, or had I always imagined
that?

L165[09:59:14]

register it's steam (both) with a prefix

L214[10:08:17] <Vexatos> GRAPHITE
L215[10:08:19] <Vexatos> like ,_,
L216[10:08:25]
<GeneralCamo> Graphite works, but NOT
IN COMBINATION WITH WATER
L217[10:08:28] <Vexatos> this is a 10/10
on stupidity levels
L218[10:08:45] <Michiyo> here, let's
shove a bunch of the moderator out of the way with GRAPHITE...
:P
L219[10:09:07] <Vexatos> graphite + heat =
bad. graphite + heat + water = bad²
L220[10:09:12]
<Fleynic> Still, could have been
avoided if someone didn't exceeded at making a
simulacrum
L221[10:09:21] <Vexatos> a what
L222[10:09:54]
<Fleynic> You know, emergency
simulations
L223[10:09:57]
<GeneralCamo> Oh and hey, let's
do an experiment that has no real world purpose
L224[10:09:57]
<GeneralCamo> >All reactors except
Chernobyl refuse
L225[10:09:57]
<GeneralCamo> Alright Chernobyl, do
this experiment or TO THE GULAG WITH YOU!!!
L226[10:09:57]
<GeneralCamo> >Experiment delayed,
experienced technicians replaced by inexperienced night crew
L227[10:09:57]

anyway with inexperienced night crew in unsafe reactor
L228[10:09:58]

L231[10:10:51] <Vexatos> "oh look
it's heating up, let's throw in the graphite regulat OH
WAIT THEY'RE MELTING"
L232[10:11:10] <Vexatos> "OH SHIT NOW
WE HAVE GRAPHITE DUST ALL OVER THE CONTINTENT
L233[10:11:15] <Vexatos> LET'S JUST
PRETEND IT DID NOT HAPPEN"
L234[10:11:36]
<Fleynic> I wonder how the chernobil
reactor looks like today...
L235[10:11:45] <Vexatos> My mother
remembers a summer where she wasn't allowed to eat things
grown in her own garden.... We live in west Germany
L236[10:11:56] <Forecaster> it looks very
overgrown
L237[10:12:04]
<GeneralCamo> Well it has a
containment structure being built around it. You know, the one that
should have been built in the first place?
L238[10:12:08] <Vexatos> They just
installed a new container
L239[10:12:12]
<GeneralCamo> BEFORE the reactor went
online?
L240[10:12:27]
<Fleynic> I mean the building from
inside, not outside
L241[10:12:30] <Vexatos> They built a new
container on top of the old container because that one started to
break down
L242[10:12:35]
<GeneralCamo> ^
L243[10:12:43]
<GeneralCamo> That old one was built
hastilty soon after the accident
L244[10:12:44]
<Fleynic> That lil. Mess I mean.
L245[10:12:47] <Vexatos> it's just a
pile of half-molten concrete and steel
L246[10:13:00] <Vexatos> There isn't
much left
L247[10:13:00]
<GeneralCamo> Basically. A few strange
crystals have been found as well
L248[10:13:02] <Vexatos> remember it
exploded
L249[10:13:13]
<GeneralCamo> From Steam, not the
reactor itself exploding
L250[10:13:19] <Vexatos> Not just a
meltdown like in Japan 2011
L251[10:13:22] <Vexatos> an actual
explosion
L252[10:13:37] <Vexatos> which threw all
the graphite regulators into the air as dust
L253[10:13:42] <Vexatos> with a nice east
wind
L254[10:13:50] <Vexatos> ,_,
L255[10:14:09]
<Fleynic> I doubt it's just
molten iron and concrete. Pretty sure there's something more
than a few strange crystals
L256[10:14:18]
<GeneralCamo> Well that's what it
is
L257[10:14:33]
<GeneralCamo> I mean, there have been
scientists and builders on-site for a few decades now
L258[10:14:38] <Vexatos> Apart from the
obvious alien mutants you expect to find? Nothing really
L259[10:14:47]
<Fleynic> Who knows. The reactor could
be just "working dormant"
L260[10:14:57] <Vexatos> uh no
L261[10:15:02] <Vexatos> It exploded
L262[10:15:07] <Vexatos> Almost everything
was blown into the air
L263[10:15:18]
<GeneralCamo> For a while the other
reactors were working, but they were shutoff within 5 years.
L264[10:15:30]
<GeneralCamo> The reactor that went
prompt critical is damaged beyond recovery
L265[10:15:33] <Vexatos> as soon as people
realized that it might not be healthy
L266[10:16:04]
<GeneralCamo> Chernobylite is the name
of the Crystals BTW
L267[10:16:09] <Michiyo> They didn't
shut down the last reactor until 2000
L268[10:16:37]
<Fleynic> I wonder why nobody is
building a special plane to transport and throw chernobil reactor
into the ocean...
L269[10:16:45]
<GeneralCamo> RADIATION IN THE
OCEAN
L270[10:16:47]
<GeneralCamo> GREAT IDEA
L271[10:17:09]
<GeneralCamo> You realize the thing is
contained right now, right?
L272[10:17:15]
<GeneralCamo> It's pretty much
safe
L273[10:17:37]
<GeneralCamo> The exclusion zone
around Chernobyl means "You might get slightly more radiation
than the average X-Ray if you have a picnic here"
L274[10:17:43]
<GeneralCamo> Not "YOU DIE IN 30
SECONDS"
L275[10:17:44]
<Fleynic> Hey calm down. High pressure
and the depths are a perfect cool down
L276[10:17:45] <Vexatos> So chernobylite
is basically zircon with uranium dissolved in it?
L277[10:17:48] <Vexatos> Doesn't
sound that strange
L278[10:18:03]
<GeneralCamo> The latter is only true
if you decide to picnic inside the containment structure that was
built
L279[10:18:13]
<GeneralCamo> Vex: It is in a sense
that it's not natural in a sense
L280[10:18:18]
<GeneralCamo> Vex: It is in a sense
that it's not natural
L281[10:18:23] <Vexatos> Well technetium
isn't natural either
L282[10:18:38]
<GeneralCamo> That's also strange
for being the lightest element that has no stable isotope
L283[10:18:40] <MCenderdragon> radiation
is good, I mean it speeds up mutation and therefor eveolution,
right ?
L284[10:18:51]
<Fleynic> Did either of you readed
me?
L285[10:18:53] <Vexatos> If you go on a
trip to visit Chernobyl for a week you take in more radiation on
your flight there than during your week's stay
L286[10:18:57] <Vexatos> Just saying
L287[10:19:14]
<GeneralCamo> Unless you go into the
reactor or something dumb like that, most of Pripyat is pretty
safe
L288[10:19:18]
<GeneralCamo> Relatively I mean
L289[10:19:22]
<GeneralCamo> Don't eat
anything
L290[10:19:31] <Vexatos> There actually is
a very good reason why technetium isn't stable
L291[10:19:59]
<Fleynic> I wonder if you could
actually live in the abandoned chernobil town nowadays
L292[10:20:10]
<GeneralCamo> You could
L293[10:20:15]
<GeneralCamo> That town is called
Pripyat BTW
L294[10:20:15] <Vexatos> Of course, but
not for eighty years :P
L295[10:20:19]
<GeneralCamo> Oh certainly not
L296[10:20:29] <Vexatos> And you
shouldn't be pregnant there either
L297[10:20:44]
<GeneralCamo> Don't eat anything
growing out of the ground there either
L298[10:20:55] <MCenderdragon> you will
most likely die from cancer and tumours
L299[10:20:57] <Vexatos> And don't
get eaten by anything growing out of the ground there either
L300[10:21:10]
<Fleynic> Meh, why not? A boy with a
3rd eye would be cute! (jk)
L301[10:21:24]
<GeneralCamo> ...you people have a
messed up idea of what radiation actually does
L302[10:21:40]
<GeneralCamo> >Nuclear Physics with
GeneralCamo and Vexators
L303[10:21:42]
<GeneralCamo> >Nuclear Physics with
GeneralCamo and Vexatos
L304[10:22:29]
<Fleynic> If anything, I would try to
take a sample of the crystals.
L305[10:22:32] <Vexatos> radiation excites
electrons!
L306[10:22:34] <MCenderdragon> anything
wich visible results and not just cancer is very rare
L307[10:22:34]
<Fleynic> For science
L308[10:22:38] <Vexatos> Excited electrons
are excited!
L309[10:22:50] <Vexatos> They get
motivated to do all kinds of things, all of which you do not want
to happen!
L310[10:23:06] <Vexatos> >the
end<
L311[10:23:10] <MCenderdragon> and some
gamma rays and of course high speed helium
L312[10:23:12]
<GeneralCamo> Vexatos: I forgot which
mod you work on
L314[10:23:30]
<Fleynic> Still, crystal samples
L315[10:23:45]
<Fleynic> Those would be an advance
for science
L316[10:23:50] <Vexatos> But people have
taken samples of the crystals
L317[10:23:58] <Vexatos> it is literally
zirconium silicate with dissolved uranium
L318[10:24:01] <Vexatos> nothing too
exciting
L319[10:24:27]
<GeneralCamo> It's unusual in a
few ways, but chemically pretty uninteresting beyond the mass
spectrometer readings
L320[10:24:37] <Vexatos> MCenderdragon,
gamma rays were what I was talking about, alpha and beta radiation
is basically gone by now
L321[10:24:45]
<Fleynic> Depends the pow. It could
have some uses
L322[10:24:49] <Vexatos> No
L323[10:24:51]
<GeneralCamo> No it doesn't
L324[10:24:57] <Vexatos> Zirconium
silicate is zirconium silicate
L325[10:25:03] <Vexatos> a fairly useful
inert clear crystal
L326[10:25:11] <Vexatos> adding uranium
into it just makes it bad
L327[10:25:14]
<GeneralCamo> Except this one is
radioactive
L328[10:25:17]
<Fleynic> I would try...
L329[10:25:22] <Vexatos> Try to what
L330[10:25:24] <Vexatos> Die?
L331[10:25:25] <Vexatos> >_>
L332[10:25:38]
<GeneralCamo> Fleynic: How much
experience do you have in chemistry?
L333[10:25:51] <Vexatos> GeneralCamo: MS
readings in crystals are generally not very helpful
L334[10:26:02]
<GeneralCamo> Well beyond the first
one no
L335[10:26:06] <Vexatos> Because they can
break down into pretty much anything
L336[10:26:06]
<Fleynic> From crazy ideas came great
inventions.
L337[10:26:06]
<Fleynic> Not much... But I know
some
L338[10:26:14]
<GeneralCamo> "Oh it's made
of that stuff. OK"
L339[10:26:23] <Vexatos> and they do not
have a specific mass
L340[10:26:38]
<GeneralCamo> Fleynic: Get a degree
first
L341[10:26:43] <Vexatos> Unless you manage
to isolate a single stoichiometrically correct molecule
L342[10:26:46] <Vexatos> at which point it
is not a crystal anymore >_>
L343[10:26:51]
<GeneralCamo> True yes...
L344[10:27:52]
<Fleynic> Hey, I know that periodic
table... (most, hard to memorize) we had chemistry, but not nuclear
chemistry. As that's another kind of chemistry
L345[10:27:52] <Vexatos> I actually never
wondered: Do gammy-radioactive substances emit on specific wave
lengths? Are there spectrometers for radiation?
L346[10:28:01] <Vexatos>
gamma-radioactive*
L347[10:28:13]
<GeneralCamo> Yes there are
L348[10:28:16] <Vexatos> cool
L349[10:28:26]
<GeneralCamo> Radioactive elements do
glow... in the infrared spectrum
L350[10:28:36]
<GeneralCamo> NOT visible light
L351[10:28:45] <Vexatos> I mean, detecting
the gamma rays
L352[10:28:47]
<GeneralCamo> Cherenkov Radiation
doesn't count
L353[10:28:50] <MCenderdragon> they also
made a kind of radioactive camera, so you can actualy SEE
radiation
L354[10:28:51] <Vexatos> themselves
L355[10:28:56]
<GeneralCamo> Well yes
L356[10:29:02]
<GeneralCamo> The rays are a type of
wave
L357[10:29:12]
<GeneralCamo> Below the visible red
spectrum
L358[10:29:17] <Vexatos> i.e. does
uranium-238 always emit one specific length and is it different to
uranium-235
L359[10:30:26] <MCenderdragon>
GeneralCamo, no you are talking about infra red, as far as I
undertand vexatos is talking about gamma rays, they are byound
ultra violett
L360[10:30:42]
<GeneralCamo> Let me check a spectrum
graph again, might be mixing it up yes
L361[10:31:12]
<Fleynic> This might sound crazy, but
I would experiment with it. An example would be using (radioactive)
Zirconium silicate in circuitry of sorts. Or maybe as containment
material...
L362[10:31:36]
<GeneralCamo> Yes indeed it is
Ultraviolet
L363[10:32:22] <Vexatos> gamma rays are
not ultraviolet either
L364[10:32:24] <Vexatos> gamma rays
are
L365[10:32:24] <Vexatos> well
L366[10:32:28] <Vexatos> gamma rays
L367[10:32:33] <Vexatos> one end of the
spectrum
L368[10:32:50]
<Fleynic> Side note, we need plutonium
Reactors in MC
L369[10:32:57] <Vexatos> Fleynic: IC2 has
them
L370[10:33:04]
<GeneralCamo> ^
L371[10:33:19]
<Fleynic> Ic2 has only uranium
cells...
L372[10:33:21] <Vexatos> Not very
realistic because they have an infinite half-life instead of 88.5
years
L373[10:33:22] <Vexatos> but still
L374[10:33:34]
<GeneralCamo> Fleynic: IC2_Exp
includes Thorium and Plutonium
L375[10:34:11]
<GeneralCamo> For Minecraft
1.6.x+
L376[10:34:15]
<Fleynic> And thorium... They say you
can't use it unless you're Indian
L377[10:34:29]
<GeneralCamo> I don't even know
how to respond to that
L378[10:35:35]
<Fleynic> Although I'm sure of
one thing.
L379[10:36:01]
<Fleynic> Mixing uranium and plutonium
is in no way a good idea
L380[10:36:02] <Vexatos> GeneralCamo:
Uranium absorbs UV light, but only that
L381[10:36:09] <Vexatos> That is not
related to it being radioactive at all
L382[10:36:22]
<GeneralCamo> UV light?
L383[10:36:30] <Vexatos> yes
L384[10:36:36]
<GeneralCamo> Vexatos: I mean
Ultraviolet within the Electromagnetic Spectrum
L385[10:36:42]
<GeneralCamo> It's beyond Violet
in the frequency of the waves
L386[10:36:43] <Vexatos> yes?
L387[10:36:46] <Vexatos> I did as
well?
L388[10:36:50] <Vexatos> That is what UV
means?
L389[10:36:54]
<GeneralCamo> Yes
L390[10:37:03] <Vexatos> But that is not
related to uranium being radioactive
L391[10:37:08]
<GeneralCamo> Gamma is MUCH higher of
course, but it's still technically UV
L392[10:37:09] <Vexatos> it just happens
to also absorb UV light
L393[10:37:13] <Vexatos> no it is
not?
L394[10:37:26] <Vexatos> After UV, you
have Röntgen radiation and after that gamma radiation
L395[10:37:29]
<Fleynic> Guys, let's just hope
that next World war, no one throws a nuclear bomb into a
reactor
L396[10:37:43] <Vexatos> That does not
make sense
L397[10:38:24]
<GeneralCamo> Violet rays are around
100 nanometers in length. Anything below that is considered
"Ultraviolet" in the spectrum. Gamma rays are 1 picometer
in length
L398[10:38:24]
<Fleynic> Think about it for a second.
Nuke + nuclear reactor
L399[10:38:39]
<GeneralCamo> (Wavelength I
mean)
L400[10:38:48] <Vexatos> GeneralCamo: Does
that mean radio waves are infrared? :X
L401[10:38:49] <MCenderdragon> and they
whould probeply let an H-Bomb detonate beyond the atmosphere to
create an giant EMP
L402[10:39:00]
<GeneralCamo> Correct, radiowaves are
"Infrared" in the spectrum
L403[10:39:05] <Vexatos> and microwaves
too?
L404[10:39:06] <Vexatos> Please
L405[10:39:21] <Vexatos> No, infrared and
ultraviolet are specific ranges in the spectrum
L406[10:39:26] <Vexatos> there's
still stuff beyond
L407[10:39:30] <Vexatos> and they're
called different things
L408[10:39:46]
<GeneralCamo> That's an
oversimplification of the spectrum
L409[10:39:49] <Vexatos> Beyond infrared,
you have microwaves and radio. Beyond UV, you have Röntgen and
gamma rays
L410[10:39:57] <Vexatos> Yes, so stop
oversimplifying it ._.
L411[10:40:08] <Vexatos> not
"everything beyond violet is ultraviolet" ,-,
L412[10:40:11]
<GeneralCamo> It's simple
nomenclature.
L413[10:40:23] <Vexatos> But it is way too
oversimplified
L414[10:40:39] <Vexatos> Show me one UV
spectrometer recording gamma rays ._.
L415[10:40:43] <Vexatos> that is not how
it works
L416[10:40:49]
<GeneralCamo> Sure
L417[10:41:00]
<GeneralCamo> Well, the one at my
university they wouldn't like me taking away..
L418[10:42:03]
<GeneralCamo> The technical terms
would be Near Ultraviolet, Extreme Ultraviolet, Soft X-Ray, Hard
X-Ray, and Gamma Ray for stuff in the Ultraviolet range
L419[10:42:19] <Vexatos> exactly
L420[10:42:22]
<GeneralCamo> In infrared things get a
bit weird. .-.
L421[10:42:24] <Vexatos> So stop
oversimplifying D:
L422[10:42:35] <Vexatos> well in infrared
you have near IR, far IR, microwaves and Radio
L423[10:42:43] <Vexatos> and then it
starts to weird
L424[10:42:53]
<GeneralCamo> Microwaves and Radio
Waves are technically in the same class
L425[10:42:58] <Vexatos> once your waves
approach a few kilometres in length :P
L426[10:43:06]
<GeneralCamo> You describe them as
"High Frequency" and "Low Frequency"
L427[10:43:17]
<GeneralCamo> Plus a ton of
prefixes
L428[10:43:24]
<GeneralCamo> "Ultra High
Frequency"
L429[10:43:25] <Vexatos> microwaves are
micrometer range, anything starting millimetres is radio
L430[10:43:31] <Vexatos> that's how I
learnt it
L431[10:43:56]
<GeneralCamo> Well you know how in the
older days Microwaves would interfere with Radios and
Televisions?
L432[10:44:18] <Vexatos> sure
L433[10:44:27] <Vexatos> But they also
were noisy and the waves weren't constant
L434[10:44:53]
<GeneralCamo> You DO actually have
some radios that work in the "Microwave" range
L435[10:45:10]
<GeneralCamo> Radio Telescopes for
example
L436[10:45:12] <Vexatos> Just don't
listen to them while cooking a meal
L437[10:45:40]
<GeneralCamo> Radio Waves and
Microwaves are two variations in naming the same thing
basically
L438[10:45:49] <Vexatos> eh
L439[10:46:32]
<GeneralCamo> Electromagnetic
Spectrums are Weird
L440[10:47:16] <Vexatos> One to give you
news, one to give you food, one to warm you up, one to make you
see, one to tan your skin, one to see your bones, one to kill you
quickly
L441[10:47:27] <Vexatos> :⁾
L442[10:47:50]
<GeneralCamo> The first one is highly
regulated by the FTC in the United States
L443[10:47:55]
<GeneralCamo> And the equivilent body
in the EU
L444[10:48:04] <Vexatos> Sure
L445[10:48:10] <Vexatos> I don't have
a radio license
L446[10:48:13]
<GeneralCamo> The first one is highly
regulated by the FCC in the United States
L447[10:48:14] <Vexatos> But I can listen
as much as I want :P
L448[10:48:25]
<GeneralCamo> Well yes, within certain
spectrums
L449[10:48:49] <Vexatos> You can't
really detect listening, so you can't prohibit it
L450[10:49:03]
<GeneralCamo> Oh wait listening
yes
L451[10:49:15]
<GeneralCamo> Broadcasting is highly
restricted though
L452[10:49:19] <Vexatos> Of course
L453[10:49:23] <Vexatos> apart from
CB
L454[10:49:32] <Vexatos> which is a single
band >_>
L455[10:50:12] <Vexatos> Anyways, ochem
exam tomorrow and I really need to study
L456[10:50:43] *
Vexatos throws a god damn swern oxidation at
GeneralCamo

<Natesky9> I've always been
interested in radiation, but not as much as to dedicate my life to
researching it. It's like magnetism, where it's a complex
phenomenon that no one can fully explain
L466[11:17:23] <MCenderdragon> well

magnetism

<Natesky9> How efficient are electric
rails?
L480[12:02:12]
<Natesky9> I know that if you have a
long stretch of them, they tend to drain power very quickly
L481[12:05:31] <Forecaster> they're
not very efficient
L482[12:07:56]
<Natesky9> Aww
L483[12:08:01]
<Natesky9> I had high hopes for
them
L484[12:08:29] <Forecaster> at a certain
point power will run out
L485[12:08:37]
<Natesky9> Is there no way to optimize
electric tracks?
L486[12:08:37] <Forecaster> so you need
power sources every so often
L487[12:08:57]
<Natesky9> besides hooking up a power
cart behind the locomotive, and setting up charging stations?
L488[12:09:00] <Forecaster> they're
really meant for shorter distances
L489[12:09:06] <Forecaster> no
L490[12:09:30]
<Natesky9> I mean, I'd imagine
the tracks would lose power much quicker if they're not
covered
L491[12:10:03] <Forecaster> covered?
L492[12:10:29]
<Natesky9> Well, an uncovered third
rail would short out in a rain, right?
L493[12:13:10]
<Natesky9> do electric rails lose
power when there's a train running on them, or is it a
constant draw?
L494[12:13:27] <Forecaster> "short
out"?
L495[12:13:28] <Forecaster> how?
L496[12:13:53] <Forecaster> it would only
short out if you closed the circuit
L497[12:13:58] <Forecaster> and I doubt
rain would do that
L498[12:14:06]
<Natesky9> Well, not electrical short,
but the energy dissapates the charge
L499[12:14:14]
<Natesky9> Well, not electrical short,
but the raindissapates the charge
L500[12:14:19]
<Natesky9> Well, not electrical short,
but the rain dissapates the charge
L501[12:14:24] <Forecaster> unless the
track was so poorly laid that water pools up on it
L502[12:14:31] <Forecaster> that's
not how electricity works...
L503[12:14:40]
<Natesky9> No, most tracks are build
to prevent that
L504[12:14:51] <Forecaster> ...
L505[12:15:13] <Forecaster> it
doesn't work like that.
L506[12:15:24] <Forecaster> anyway, yes,
there is a constant draw
L507[12:15:35] <Forecaster> caused by the
loss when energy moves from one track to another
L508[12:16:01]
<Natesky9> ok, so there isn't an
extra draw for trains going over?
L509[12:16:12] <Forecaster> there is
L510[12:16:26] <Forecaster> the train
draws power from the tracks into it's buffer
L511[12:16:32] <Forecaster> it uses the
buffer to run
L512[12:17:04]
<Natesky9> because my idea is that you
could have semgents that are only powered when a train is in that
section
L513[12:17:15]
<Natesky9> Hmm
L514[12:17:36] <Forecaster> could do that
easily
L515[12:17:47]
<Natesky9> Yeah, with block
signals
L516[12:17:53]
<Natesky9> which aren't in my
version yet
L517[12:18:12]
<Natesky9> It would be a passing
charge
L518[12:18:18] <Forecaster> basically just
need a token system that also keeps the occupied sections
powered
L519[12:18:29]
<Natesky9> wait, you can't charge
electric boxes through the tracks, can you?
L520[12:18:43] <Forecaster> "electric
boxes"?
L521[12:18:52]
<bballboy2002> what?
L522[12:19:04]
<Natesky9> like the mfe cart and all
that you can power the electric locomotives with
L523[12:19:14] <Forecaster> oh
L524[12:19:15] <Forecaster> no
L525[12:19:22]
<Natesky9> If the energy carts
didn't slow the train down so much, I'd use those alot
more
L526[12:19:51] <Forecaster> yeah,
basically nobody would use the tracks :P
L527[12:20:21]
<Natesky9> I like them though
L528[12:23:15]
<Natesky9> I do feel like they're
a little underpowered compared to the steam locomotives. Not just
that they're a weaker version, but they require more
maintainence, more prone to getting stranded, and frankly,
extremely inefficient
L529[12:23:40] <MCenderdragon> welcome to
reality
L530[12:24:53] <Forecaster> they're
intended for short local lines where you don't want to set up
a bunch of fuelling stations
L531[12:24:59] <Forecaster> or something
like that
L532[12:30:01]
<Natesky9> Well, electric locomotives
are actually becoming more popular, and more efficient. At least
over here in the states
L533[12:30:13]
<Natesky9> I don't know about
everywhere else in the world
L534[12:30:36]
<bballboy2002> same in most of the
world
L535[12:30:44]
<Natesky9> Oh, neat
L536[12:30:58] <Forecaster> we use mostly
electric here
L537[12:31:04]
<Natesky9> I only know of japan's
maglev trains
L538[12:32:10]
<bballboy2002> here we use mostly
electric, not sure about diesel, and steam we only use when
celebrating a "railroad holiday" of sorts
L539[12:32:47]
<Natesky9> Steam is still extremely
efficient
L540[12:32:58]
<Natesky9> despite being over 100
years old
L541[12:33:09]
<Natesky9> actually, not despite,
*especially*
L542[12:33:47] <Forecaster> well, for
passenger trains, I dont think electric trains are powerful to pull
goods
L543[12:34:52]
<Natesky9> You'd be surprised.
They may not be able to haul as *much* as a diesel locomotive, but
they'll haul a hell of a lot
L544[12:37:02]
<Natesky9> in fact, I think the diesel
hybrid train is probably one of if not the most powerful there
is

<CovertJaguar> The electric tracks got
a major overhaul in RC 10. There Idle usage was greatly reduced and
they no longer pass power from track to track.
L548[13:14:26]
<Natesky9> Hooray!
L549[13:14:41]
<Natesky9> Do you have the numbers, by
chance?
L550[13:14:53]
<CovertJaguar> Additionally the entire
network continues to operate even if part gets unloaded.
L551[13:15:12]
<Natesky9> That's an awesome
improvement there
L552[13:15:14]
<CovertJaguar> All it does now is
connect draws to sources.
L553[13:15:41]
<Natesky9> So all you have to do is
have the feeder unit chunk loaded?
L554[13:15:53]
<CovertJaguar> I can look then up in a
minute
L555[13:16:49]
<CovertJaguar> The source needs to
stay loaded, and I the network is only built when it is loaded, but
once parts unload it keeps working like they are still there
L556[13:17:15]
<Natesky9> That's good
L557[13:17:43]
<Natesky9> Even if it draws in
unloaded chunks, that is still consistant

<Natesky9> Even if it draws in

L684[16:59:43]
<CovertJaguar> which admittedly has
turned into something of a monster project
L685[17:00:18]
<GeneralCamo> Well, I could work on a
simple liquid fueled locomotive. You know about Oil Burners,
right?
L686[17:00:44]
<CovertJaguar> Yes, but as I was about
to say, I don't like Tiering because it removes meaningful
choices
L687[17:01:01]
<GeneralCamo> Tiering was probably a
bad word...
L688[17:01:17]
<CovertJaguar> I fear an Oil Burner
would remove any meaningful choice between the Diesel and Oil
Burner
L689[17:01:22]
<GeneralCamo> Hmm
L690[17:01:36]
<GeneralCamo> The same would apply to
a Diesel Electric then I guess...
L691[17:01:55]
<CovertJaguar> as the Diesel is
intended to be front heavy on the infrustructure, requiring two
chemlabs to process the fuel
L692[17:02:28]
<GeneralCamo> Well, I'm thinking
the Oil Burner could be run on Creosote. But is less efficient than
fueling a Diesel Locomotive with Diesel.
L693[17:02:30]
<CovertJaguar> in order to make it
stand out from the simplicity of the Steam and the Track
infrustructure of the Electric
L694[17:02:36]
<GeneralCamo> Well, I'm thinking
the Oil Burner could be run on Creosote (Coal Tar). But is less
efficient than fueling a Diesel Locomotive with Diesel.
L695[17:02:50]
<GeneralCamo> Or Unprocessed Oil
L696[17:03:44]
<GeneralCamo> So a Solid Steam
locomotive that isn't complicated and has range. An Oil Burner
that can run on Creosote and Unprocessed oil. An efficient diesel
that runs on processed hydrocarbons. And the Electric which allows
for maximum efficiency from turbines.

<GeneralCamo> @CovertJaguar I actually
have an idea to remove any sense of Tiering from Low-Pressure and
High-Pressure boilers
L700[17:06:35]
<CovertJaguar> they aren't really
tiered now, you can either have more fuel/time efficent low
pressure, or more space efficient high pressure
L701[17:06:45]
<GeneralCamo> True...
L702[17:06:56]
<GeneralCamo> I was thinking they
could produce different types of Steam. Saturated and
Superheated.
L703[17:07:08]
<GeneralCamo> The former would be
better at heating and similar. The latter at power
generation.
L704[17:08:11]
<CovertJaguar> that would make the
turbine the only thing that can accept superheated probably,
everything else low pressure
L705[17:08:34]
<GeneralCamo> Possibly the Rock
Crusher as well
L706[17:08:43]
<GeneralCamo> Due to its function as a
crushing utility
L707[17:09:00]
<GeneralCamo> But it would serve to
make the furnaces distinct in function and purpose, rather than a
pure numbers game
L708[17:09:24]
<GeneralCamo> (Plus I'm sure more
uses could be found for it)
L709[17:09:29]
<GeneralCamo> (Plus I'm sure more
uses could be found for the steam)

<CovertJaguar> well I do plan to do
some reworking of the power system to move away from RF or FE or
whatever they are calling it these days
L713[17:10:42]
<CovertJaguar> might be a good time to
look at something like that
L714[17:11:13] <LuigiHutch> MJ? ;)
L715[17:11:40]
<CovertJaguar> oh for sounds, I just
added the Spike Maul, a good "hammer hitting railway
spike" might be nice
L716[17:13:20]
<CovertJaguar> otherwise, if you just
want play around with stuff and think something should have a sound
feel free to send me stuff
L717[17:13:45]
<CovertJaguar> I need to fix my other
repo sometime, the emblem stuff is so broken
L718[17:14:29]
<GeneralCamo> Hahaha MJ
L719[17:14:38]
<GeneralCamo> I remember that
L720[17:14:56]
<CovertJaguar> if the sounds are free
use though, I can probably just put those ones on Github and get
the system working
L721[17:15:22] <LuigiHutch> well it is

Well, CoFH just suck, MJ is back
L723[17:15:36]
<GeneralCamo> Yeah I kindof
figured
L724[17:15:50]
<GeneralCamo> Are they making it

L730[17:16:39]
<GeneralCamo> The community realizes
that COFH is terrible.
L731[17:16:53]
<GeneralCamo> Not a whole lot of
support for TE5 from what I've seen
L732[17:17:00]
<Joshwoo70> please post reasons
L733[17:17:19]
<liach>
CoFH has unfriendly developers
L734[17:17:20]
<GeneralCamo> "RF should have
died with 1.6"
L735[17:18:03]
<liach>
I don't think anyone is going to use forge energy... It has
not enough functionalities
L736[17:18:14]
<CovertJaguar> I'm glad the
community finally realized what I've been saying since the
beginning
L737[17:18:29]
<GeneralCamo> The intention of Force
Energy is RF but actually maintained. So far I've only seen it
as a compatibility layer
L738[17:18:36]
<CovertJaguar> I was demonized for
saying I didn't like COFH or KL or TE for a long time

L742[17:19:15]
<Joshwoo70> feels weird saying
it
L743[17:19:23]
<GeneralCamo> As of right now, the
only mods that actually use RF are ExtraUtilities 2 and apparently
Thermal Expansion 5

<Joshwoo70> AE2

own energy system I thought that is compatible with RF
L747[17:19:59]
<Joshwoo70> it is
L748[17:20:07]
<GeneralCamo> That's not using
RF
L749[17:20:12]

outdated
L750[17:20:15]

L751[17:20:20]

L753[17:20:32]
<Joshwoo70> oh
L754[17:20:33]
<GeneralCamo> 1.10 is a much different
story
L755[17:20:36]
<Joshwoo70> just so you know
L757[17:20:39]
<CovertJaguar> I supported KL and TE
back when is was just some BC compatible furnaces and stuff, KL was
nice and helpful and a good salesman, but as soon as the BC team
helped him gain some followers and exposure he used every
oppurtuinty to stab us in the back
L758[17:20:44]
<Joshwoo70> 1.12 will be a big
change

talking

<Joshwoo70> so don't ask me
L825[17:33:16]
<Natesky9> Oh boy, I sure missed
something
L826[17:35:53]
<GeneralCamo> If what is happening is
true, we will be well aware of it
L827[17:36:27]
<GeneralCamo> Mojang and Microsoft
have a vested business interest in keeping the modded server and
modded minecraft alive
L828[17:36:35]
<GeneralCamo> Mainly because of the
business relationship with CurseForge
L829[17:37:45]
<liach>
Is it that tile entity ticking is removed or render changes?
L830[17:39:21]
<GeneralCamo> The strange part though
is how apparently a classified group knows this before anyone
else
L832[17:40:54]
<GeneralCamo> If this group was
comprised of Forge Developers or MCCoder pack devs through their
connection with Searge and Dr.Mobius it would make sense
L833[17:40:58]
<GeneralCamo> But apparently there is
more than just them
L834[17:42:02]
<liach>
Is Microsoft killing Minecraft after all?
L835[17:42:07]
<GeneralCamo> Certainly not
L836[17:42:18]
<GeneralCamo> Their business interest
would be threatened
L837[17:42:31]
<GeneralCamo> It seems Microsoft has
taken a hands-off approach anyway with Mojang
L838[17:43:07]
<liach>
Seems Mojang itself is messing things up
L839[17:43:10]

1.5? Withers?

<GeneralCamo> 1.4 was withers. And
that was a GOLDEN age for modders
L855[17:46:49]
<GeneralCamo> 1.5 was the Redstone
update

L865[17:48:45]
<liach>
was modding easier at that version?

the track place event

<CovertJaguar> the track placement
code routes through like three layers of toolkit code, not
surprised I missed it
L881[17:55:47]
<GeneralCamo> This doesn't sound
like an easy fix
L883[17:56:02]
<Frani>
was looking at the code and found this
L885[17:56:07]
<GeneralCamo> Well I mean it is, but
that would need to be backported to 1.7, yes?
L886[17:56:11]
<CovertJaguar> eh...mostly I just need
to write a new function for safely changing blocks
L887[17:56:16]
<GeneralCamo> (Or is this the 1.10
version?)
L888[17:56:39]
<liach>
@Frani Sponge should have patched that method, didn't
sponge?
L889[17:57:01]
<Frani>
probably, but RC bypassing the check by some reason
L890[17:57:16]
<CovertJaguar> not sure why that would
be
L891[17:57:31]
<GeneralCamo> Does the Bore use this
function?
L892[17:57:42]
<CovertJaguar> yes
L893[17:57:47]
<GeneralCamo> @Frani Does the same
happen with the Track Placer cart?

L901[17:58:46]
<CovertJaguar> eh...probably, Forge
keeps changing how you are supposed to ask for permission for this
stuff, and I never had a unified toolkit for it (I should)
L902[17:58:48]

it makes

don't know what's wrong

<Natesky9> Is it just rapid machine
gun placing tracks?
L943[18:59:43]
<Natesky9> Also, on the topic (5 hours
later) of cheaty item teleportation, that can be solved two ways.
The first is to add some sort of method to prevent items from
teleporting between inventories by using some sort of nbt tag. A
bit hacky, but the second method would require the cooperation of
multiple mod authors
L944[19:02:14]
<Natesky9> As you know, brewing
started requiring a catalyst in order to function. (Which would be
*fine* if potions were actually useful, but I digress, that's
a topic for another day)
L945[19:03:51]
<Natesky9> Thaumcraft had something
similar, with requiring iter essential to move items safely through
a mirror
L946[19:04:27]
<Frani>
whats the issue?
L947[19:05:21]
<Natesky9> There was a discussion
about item teleportation making rails irrelevant
L948[19:06:50]
<Frani>
rails are cool
L949[19:06:54]
<Frani>
isnt that enough?
L950[19:07:07]
<vedrit> Eh... I don't think
trains in modded Minecraft were about item transportation.
L951[19:07:32]
<vedrit> I think most servers include
some thing like EnderChests
L952[19:08:13]
<Frani>
af least in my servers, we offer ender chests and also
railcraft
L953[19:08:23]
<Frani>
that doesnt mean that they should only use one
L954[19:08:50]
<Natesky9> Well, the sad thing is that
most players will use the most efficient method
L955[19:08:59]
<vedrit> Trains, IMO, were more about
moving entities long distances
L956[19:09:07]
<Frani>
or the cooler?
L957[19:09:27]
<Frani>
depends of the public
L958[19:09:30]
<Natesky9> Even then, moving entities
is still as simple as using a safari ball or a soul vial
L959[19:09:34]
<Kodos>
What's the ratio in a blast furnace for coal coke blocks to
making steel blocks from iron blocks
L960[19:09:54]
<Natesky9> Iirc, 18 to 1
L961[19:10:01]
<Kodos>
Erm blocks?
L962[19:10:16]
<Natesky9> Yeah, 2 coke per
ingot
L963[19:10:24]
<Natesky9> 4 charcoal per ingot
L964[19:10:32]
<Kodos>
Okay, so 2 coke blocks per block of iron to steel
L965[19:10:43]
<Natesky9> Eeyup
L966[19:10:55]
<vedrit> Eh... I see safari net/balls
or soul vials, even golden lasso, far less than I see instant,
infinite item transfer
L967[19:11:20]
<Natesky9> Because there's not
much need for entity transfer
L968[19:11:47]
<Natesky9> Even the resources gotten
from them are easier to transfer in item form
L969[19:12:21]
<vedrit> Except for players
L970[19:12:50]
<Frani>
what is cooler than a Subway
L971[19:13:11]
<vedrit> An elevated light rail
L972[19:14:41]
<Natesky9> At least in my experience,
I've not seen anyone besides me even attempt rails
L973[19:15:57]
<vedrit> I always do, even though
there's usually no more than 3 people total who play on my
server
L974[19:17:50]
<Frani>
rails and trains are what Railcraft is, what to do if people just
dont like?
L975[19:18:07]
<vedrit> They can just do vanilla,
then

but from my view, Railcraft just needs a revamp
L985[19:20:38]

blast to use, even if it's the only mod installed
L986[19:20:41]

a revamp
L988[19:21:04]

L989[19:21:21]
<Frani>
Railcraft right now looks like the same as the one in 1.2.5
L990[19:21:39]
<vedrit> Well... I mean...
Doesn't Minecraft?
L991[19:22:04]
<vedrit> Sure, there's a few more
blocks, but...
L992[19:22:23]
<Frani>
if you take minecraft in account nothing will change
L993[19:22:24]

never
L994[19:22:39]

<Frani>
wow that is

<Frani>
people become bored
L997[19:23:14]
<vedrit> I think Railcraft fits the
aesthetic of the game
L998[19:23:35]
<Frani>
yes, it fits and it's very cool
L999[19:23:43]
<Frani>
but I miss new content
L1000[19:24:02]
<vedrit> What new stuff would it
need?
L1001[19:24:05]
<Frani> probably others too
L1002[19:24:07]
<Frani> idk
L1003[19:24:10]
<Frani> just new things
L1004[19:24:14]
<Frani> a bit of hype
L1005[19:24:15]
<vedrit> :p
L1006[19:25:05]
<vedrit> I forgot who said this
"Perfection is reached not when there is nothing left to add,
but when there is nothing left to remove."
L1007[19:25:34]
<vedrit> I don't think Railcraft
would benefit from having much more added
L1008[19:25:35]
<Frani> Vazkii?
L1009[19:26:28]
<Frani> Railcraft dont need much more
added, in my point of view it just need something that will bring
back who played in others versions from 1.2.5 and became
bored
L1010[19:26:40]
<Frani> some new mechanic maybe
L1011[19:27:03]
<Natesky9> I was actually thinking of
something
L1012[19:27:08]
<Natesky9> Two things, actually
L1013[19:27:13]
<Frani> what?
L1014[19:27:55]
<Frani> I would love to have modular
trains, programmed with ComputerCraft ?
L1015[19:27:56]
<Natesky9> Passenger and item
transport "quests"
L1016[19:28:17]
<Natesky9> I would actually like to
see bigger trains
L1017[19:29:20]
<vedrit> Passenger carts is something
I'd like, now you mention it. Multiple players in one
cart
L1018[19:30:08]
<Frani> that would be cool
L1019[19:30:41]
<Frani> that would also requiere
double track lines, or a bigger track
L1020[19:33:57]
<vedrit> Why?
L1021[19:34:25]
<Frani> imagine a big train in a 1
block rail
L1022[19:34:46]
<vedrit> Why would it be bigger?
L1023[19:35:06]
<Frani> have more space for
players?
L1024[19:35:13]
<Frani> have more space for more
players?
L1025[19:35:34]
<vedrit> Is it a requirement built
into the game?
L1026[19:35:57]
<Frani> what?
L1027[19:36:48]
<vedrit> Is it required by the game
that carts be bigger to accommodate more entities as
passengers?
L1028[19:37:43]
<Frani> I dont think so, just would be
visually better
L1029[19:38:11]
<Frani> also there was a time that
entities could only have 1 passenger
L1030[19:38:15]
<Frani> not sure if it changed
L1031[19:38:54]
<vedrit> I don't think it would
be a visual improvement to have them larger
L1032[19:39:33]
<vedrit> And I think it involve
additional technical issues
L1033[19:40:37]
<Natesky9> I was thinking boat-style
passenger style
L1034[19:40:53]
<Natesky9> Just 2 or 3
passengers
L1035[19:41:02]
<Natesky9> With a roof and sides
L1036[19:42:56]
<vedrit> Even only 2 passengers would
be good. One sitting on the front, one on the back
L1037[19:52:21]
<Natesky9> Both facing front, or
facing each other?
L1038[19:54:07]
<vedrit> Facing away from
eachother

L1042[20:00:40]
<Natesky9> Hmm
L1043[20:01:20]
<Natesky9> I think the cart could
visually look larger of the passengers faced each other
L1044[20:25:56]
<Natesky9> Anyway, I had an idea that
would make Railcraft somewhat relevant, and somewhat unique
L1045[20:27:56]
<Natesky9> One of the few things in
Minecraft that hasn't been really touched much in mods is
trading. Which is understandable, because setting up an economy in
an infinite sandbox game is tricky
L1046[20:28:52]
<Natesky9> There are villagers, but
there are very few trades that are good, and only a handful that
are necessary
L1047[20:31:22]
<Natesky9> On top of that, there are
very few resources that are in high demand
L1048[20:33:52]

L1064[20:46:05]
<Joshwoo70> do you know how to

L1065[20:46:13]
<GeneralCamo> To an extent.
L1066[20:46:26]

L1067[20:46:47]
<GeneralCamo> If I can get a .obj

L1068[20:47:14]
<vedrit> I wonder... Is there a way to

L1069[20:47:45]

small, independent servers to trade with each other?
L1070[20:47:57]

<GeneralCamo> No
L1072[20:48:31]
<Frani> lol
L1073[20:48:43]

L1083[20:53:45]
<Joshwoo70> fine
L1084[20:54:00]
<GeneralCamo> Anyway: Want to get
current thoughts on the steam system
L1085[20:54:32]
<Joshwoo70> its
L1086[20:54:35]
<Joshwoo70> steamy
L1087[20:54:39]
<Joshwoo70> :kappa:
L1088[20:54:43]
<GeneralCamo> The chain goes Water +
Fuel --(Boiler)--> Steam --> Stuff
L1089[20:55:11]
<GeneralCamo> High Pressure is less
efficient but makes steam faster. Low pressure is more
efficient.
L1090[20:55:28]
<Frani> more things moved by
steam!
L1091[20:55:32]
<GeneralCamo> I see improvements
here
L1092[20:56:30]
<GeneralCamo> Water + Fuel --(Low
Pressure Boiler)--> Saturated Steam --> Heating stuff
L1093[20:56:31]
<GeneralCamo> Water + Fuel --(Low
Pressure Boiler)--> Saturated Steam --> --(High Pressure
Boiler)--> Superheated Steam --> Turbine
L1094[20:56:41]
<GeneralCamo> Water + Fuel --(Low
Pressure Boiler)--> Saturated Steam --> Heating stuff
L1095[20:56:41]
<GeneralCamo> Water + Fuel --(Low
Pressure Boiler)--> Saturated Steam --(High Pressure
Boiler)--> Superheated Steam --> Turbine
L1096[20:57:53]
<GeneralCamo> Gives the Low Pressure
boiler use even when you are overflowing in fuel. Makes the steam
chain more interesting in general. And gives additional flexibility
for when the machine aspect of the mod is expanded
L1097[20:58:36]
<Frani> add more explosions!
L1098[20:58:55]
<GeneralCamo> In what way would
anything explode here?
L1099[20:59:04]
<Frani> was a joke

L1127[21:43:18]
<Natesky9> In the beginning, there was
Minecraft, and it was good
L1128[21:43:57]
<Natesky9> Soon after, mods were
created to add onto this
L1129[21:44:03]
<Natesky9> One of the first were
pistons
L1130[21:44:10]
<Natesky9> Mojang saw this, and it was
good
L1131[21:44:43]
<Natesky9> Then came food, and
animals, and the nether, and redstone
L1132[21:44:48]
<Natesky9> Mojang saw this, and it was
good
L1133[21:45:44]
<Natesky9> Then came the very first
"addons" -- mods that gave more than just one thing.
Buildcraft, Thaumcraft, Ic2, Forestry
L1134[21:46:04]
<Natesky9> These were new, and very
incomplete, but still good

(~mikrysoft@89-76-18-43.dynamic.chello.pl)
L1136[21:47:02]
<Natesky9> Some focused on magic,
others focused on tech. One of the first popularized power systems
was through Buildcraft
L1137[21:47:16]
<Natesky9> Mojang saw MJ, and it was
good
L1138[21:47:59]
<Natesky9> different mods started
sprouting up, some using the MJ system, others introducing their
own power system
L1139[21:49:17]
<Natesky9> Industrialcraft was born,
and has prospered ever since. However, MJ has been phased out in
favor of the much less frustrating, infinitely more convenient RF
system
L1140[21:49:27]
<Natesky9> Mojang saw RF, and it was
good
L1141[21:50:16]
<Natesky9> However, with all these new
mods being introduced, the pool became increasingly diluted with
half-baked mods
L1142[21:50:29]
<Natesky9> Even so, the best of the
best shined through
L1143[21:53:32]
<Natesky9> that being said,
Buildcraft... died off. It had no longer supported the demand that
new mods required. It had become outdated, buggy, and frankly,
really boring
L1144[21:53:57]
<Natesky9> I was going somewhere else
with this when I started
L1145[21:58:50]
<Kodos> Honestly, BC is still a decent
mod. The power transmission style is outdated and frankly,
terrible. Having to balance production with demand to minimize
wasted power is terrible, when there's so many storage
options
L1146[22:00:46]
<Natesky9> Oh, I know where I was
going with this
L1147[22:00:50]
<Natesky9> thanks for reminding
me
L1148[22:01:10]
<Natesky9> Buildcraft's principle
on power was that MJ could not be stored
L1149[22:04:28]
<Natesky9> The energy produced had to
be used at that moment, or it would be wasted. It had a decent
power transmission system, as long as you didn't create loops,
and the distance wasn't too large. I will say though, they had
an amazing visual effect for energy

<SkySom> I liked that fact
L1151[22:05:20]
<SkySom> Instead now we just get DE
energy storage
L1152[22:05:34]
<SkySom> Theres no challenge in
that.

<Natesky9> It was a novel idea, at the
time when there weren't many constant demands in power
L1154[22:06:07]
<Natesky9> However, times have
changed, and there are now many different machines that run
L1155[22:06:43]
<Natesky9> The main principle of
energy in Thermal Expansion is that energy can be stored and
transmitted through refined redstone
L1156[22:07:30]
<Natesky9> to do so required more
processing and more setup, and was a direct upgrade from the
previous system
L1157[22:07:38]
<liach> How about ic2?
L1158[22:08:14]
<Natesky9> Industrialcraft has... gone
through several changes, most of them to attempt to balance the mod
around both extremes
L1159[22:08:45]
<liach> Is it good?
L1160[22:09:20]
<liach> It is the most famous mod in
china, way more famous than ticon
L1161[22:09:55]
<Natesky9> early on, the energy grid
system required you to carefully plan out lower-tier power sources
because of the energy loss, and especially on larger systems.
L1162[22:11:07]
<Natesky9> If you wanted solars, for
example, it was best to distribute them within 5 blocks of a
storage block, to reset the packet loss and to condense into a
larger packet for distribution
L1163[22:11:08]
<Natesky9> BUT
L1164[22:11:13]
<Natesky9> let's not get into
details
L1165[22:11:38]
<Natesky9> Under the hood, it's a
decent concept, but in reality, it's fickle
L1166[22:11:42]
<liach> ic2 removed loss in 1.7, but
added it back in 1.10 or so
L1167[22:12:22]
<Natesky9> It's been tweaked,
removed and re-added several times now
L1168[22:13:01]
<Natesky9> The packet system
hasn't been entirely reliable throughout the lifetime of
it's existance
L1169[22:17:00]
<liach> haha
L1170[22:17:14]
<liach> are they still ticking tile
entities?
L1171[22:17:59]
<Natesky9> What IC2 *really* needs is
more obvious cues as to what is happening. Alot of the issues arise
because players don't understand what is happening in-world.
And because of that, things happen that they don't
understand
L1172[22:18:09]
<Natesky9> I don't think the
cables are anymore
L1173[22:33:42]
<liach> Will there be any more
releases for 1.7?
L1174[22:34:18]
<Natesky9> I doubt it
L1175[22:34:38]
<Natesky9> 1.7.10 is the Windows XP of
Minecraft modding
L1176[22:34:56]
<Natesky9> extremely stable, but not
very recent

<Natesky9> Possibly the best way to
diagnose that is to observe it happening in spectator mode
L1181[22:37:19]
<Natesky9> iirc, spectator mode does
not "load" chunks
L1182[22:37:29]
<Natesky9> wait, nevermind
L1183[22:38:09]
<Natesky9> it loads chunks, but only
for generation purposes

<Reoseah> IMHO, IC2 energy system was
shining in 1.5.2 GregTech
L1187[23:20:03]
<Reoseah> Or maybe that was just my
only attempt playing tech mods that was actually interesting
