L1[00:11:30] <Kodos> Neat, the IE Shaders work on carts
L2[00:11:36] <Kodos> Good thing I can dye trains to match ?
L3[00:19:32] <Kodos> Remind me, does an electric loco with a low battery trigger a routing 'NeedsRefuel"?
L4[00:37:25] ⇦ Quits: ImQ009 (~ImQ009@87-206-174-76.dynamic.chello.pl) (Quit: Leaving)
L5[00:49:13] <Natesky9> I wouldn't see how that's useful, as the buffer in electric locomotives is piss poor
L6[00:49:40] <Natesky9> I don't think there's even a trigger for a low energy cart either
L7[00:49:49] <Kodos> Hm, alright
L8[00:49:57] <Natesky9> Wait, there should be something in the detector block
L9[00:50:18] <Natesky9> I can't test because, well, no machines in 10.0.1
L10[00:51:38] <Kodos> Indeed
L11[00:59:11] <Natesky9> Anyway, I said earlier about a new, unique way to make Railcraft that much more exciting
L12[00:59:31] <Natesky9> I went on several tangents, of course
L13[00:59:54] <Natesky9> Hmm, let's see, it all started when someone mentioned moving steam as if it were a liquid
L14[00:59:57] <Natesky9> no
L15[00:59:58] <Natesky9> bad
L16[01:00:13] <Natesky9> *shakes switch*
L17[01:02:35] <Natesky9> If anything, it'd be way more efficient to transport the water and liquid fuel to the destination instead, as steam take up 100x more volume (iirc)
L18[01:05:06] <Natesky9> The one thing that would improve Railcraft as a whole would be to make the mod entirely playable on it's own. I've generally found that if a mod bothers to supply the means to complete the content with just the base game and itself, it's at least a half-decent mod
L19[01:05:49] <Natesky9> Railcraft, to some extent, kinda does that?
L20[01:09:03] <Natesky9> however, it's more of a companion mod to others. Which isn't a bad thing, but it doesn't incentivize expansion, and therefore, no real need to expand to remote locations
L21[01:10:12] <Kodos> What do you feel is missing from it in its current state? (Let's assume 1.7.10 for now for the sake of feature completeness)
L22[01:10:20] <Kodos> Like, what do you think makes it not playable on its own
L23[01:11:51] <Natesky9> Well, for one, it relies on several other mods for resources, and even processing of resources. You would need at least a handful of mods just to fill that void
L24[01:12:09] <Natesky9> for comparison, Botania is fully standalone
L25[01:12:27] <Kodos> Wait wait wait
L26[01:12:38] <Kodos> What's wrong with using a rock crusher to double ores, and automating vanilla furnaces?
L27[01:13:07] <Kodos> I'm pretty sure you could just use an advanced unloader to unload coal and dusts into a furnace
L28[01:13:10] <Kodos> And a loader to grab the ingots
L29[01:13:26] <Natesky9> (I had that written out, but I erased it)
L30[01:14:50] <Natesky9> What I mean is that, yes, while you can automate fuel through coal/coke usage
L31[01:15:06] <Natesky9> having to even rely on that is a manual process
L32[01:15:46] <Natesky9> even the option to use a renewable fuel would have to be manual, either through charcoal, or even creosote for boilers
L33[01:17:13] <Natesky9> the "processing of resources" part was me thinking about ethanol/fuel/biogas/hootch for fuel
L34[01:19:03] <Natesky9> and to be honest, using lots of loaders is REALLY silly. I tried that once, and, uh. Well, it's way too much iron
L35[01:20:04] <Natesky9> I opted for retreival fluiducts/itemducts instead
L36[01:23:41] <Kodos> It may be silly, but your statement was that Railcraft couldn't be played on its own
L37[01:23:57] <Kodos> It's doable though
L38[01:24:20] <Kodos> And frankly, if I had the internet to stream/upload to Youtube, I'd probably do a Let's play of just Railcraft and Vanilla
L39[01:24:31] <Kodos> Maybe some cosmetic mods like chisel, carpenter's, etc
L40[01:24:50] <Kodos> But gameplay content wise, just railcraft is definitely playable
L41[01:26:57] <Natesky9> It's... possible, but not easilly
L42[01:27:45] <Natesky9> It would be very limited, and would require constant maintainence to keep fuel going
L43[01:28:42] <Natesky9> My point is that it's restricted by it's theme to only be a niche application
L44[01:36:01] <Kodos> Okay, you've convinced me to do this
L45[01:36:02] <Kodos> https://puu.sh/us2tt/774267c6af.txt
L46[01:36:24] <Kodos> Anything you see there that you think shouldn't be there for a Railcraft only pack?
L47[01:36:31] <Kodos> I tried to keep it to just RC and cosmetic stuff
L48[01:36:40] <Kodos> Plus utility stuff like Waila, NEI, etc
L49[01:37:30] <Natesky9> The only thing I can see with that though, is the constant demand of a non-renewable resource
L50[01:38:03] <Natesky9> You'll either spend most of your time getting fuel for locomotives/blast furnaces
L51[01:38:21] <Natesky9> or all of your steel/fuel making tunnel bores
L52[01:38:30] <Natesky9> which in turn, require yet even more fuel
L53[01:38:58] <Kodos> Well, honestly, it wouldn't be so bad if there were a liquid fueled locomotive we could dump creosote into
L54[01:39:25] <Kodos> Obviously that wouldn't be the only liquid fuel it could take, but it would be another valid use for all the creo I get
L55[01:39:57] <Natesky9> Well, the creosote you'd dump into a boiler for power
L56[01:41:00] <Natesky9> But even then, that's only mitigating the power demand, because that's a byproduct of a non-renewable resource
L57[01:43:33] <Natesky9> The biggest thing I'm getting at, is that there is no "full automation" with Railcraft alone
L58[01:44:10] <Natesky9> If there were Forestry, then yeah. You could automate fuel in several different ways
L59[01:44:33] <Natesky9> If it were EnderIO + Railcraft, then yeah, full automation
L60[01:44:49] <Kodos> Honestly, if I were going to use only one other mod with RC, It'd be IE
L61[01:45:02] <Kodos> Between the two, I could easily automate everything, and have it look nice to boot
L62[01:45:07] <Natesky9> Does Immersive have a farm though?
L63[01:45:33] <Natesky9> I haven't looked into it much
L64[01:45:51] <Kodos> Not that I know of, but a farm isn't that tedious. Not nearly as tedious as an automatic mine
L65[01:45:56] <Kodos> Which IE does have
L66[01:47:04] <Natesky9> Yeah, I saw the Ore wheel
L67[01:47:07] <Natesky9> that thing is awesome
L68[01:47:59] <liach> IE... I never played that, and I dislike it because of its fancy textures
L69[01:48:14] <Natesky9> That's.... the first time I've heard that complaint, to be honest
L70[01:48:50] <Kodos> Well, to be honest
L71[01:49:06] <Kodos> Not using a mod because of its textures wh en things like resource packs exist is petty
L72[01:49:12] <Kodos> Okay, maybe not petty
L73[01:49:15] <Kodos> But you get my point
L74[01:49:18] <CovertJaguar> You are aware that I'm not a fan of 100% no-maintianence fully automated systems right?
L75[01:49:45] <vedrit> No matter how complicated and convoluted?
L76[01:49:50] <CovertJaguar> that's why you have to replace Turbine rotors manually
L77[01:50:18] <CovertJaguar> because it gives the player something to _do_ not just something to make then forget
L78[01:50:31] <Natesky9> I can understand not liking the set-and-forget playstyle
L79[01:50:33] <Kodos> Question; Without IC2 installed, can I use the Steam Turbine if I have a feeder unit turning it into charge directly adjacent to it, or will it just not function at all
L80[01:50:44] <CovertJaguar> @Kodos yes
L81[01:50:46] <Kodos> ?
L82[01:50:55] <CovertJaguar> you don't even need the feeder
L83[01:51:03] <Kodos> Oh?
L84[01:51:09] <Kodos> Does it put out charge?
L85[01:51:24] <CovertJaguar> the feeder is for EU->Charge, the Turbine can directly output Charge
L86[01:51:39] <Kodos> Oh nice
L87[01:51:46] <Kodos> That makes this super easy then
L88[01:51:54] <Kodos> What's the consumption rate on the turbine
L89[01:52:11] <vedrit> What's the most recent RC version to have functioning track switches and signals?
L90[01:52:15] ⇨ Joins: [Enrico] (~chiccoroc@2001:41d0:8:d518:192::1003)
L91[01:52:16] <CovertJaguar> steam consumption? a 36HP boilers worth I think
L92[01:52:16] <Kodos> (I could easily check the wiki but I'm already rambling here)
L93[01:52:21] <CovertJaguar> er wait no
L94[01:52:21] <Kodos> Oh, damn
L95[01:52:24] <Kodos> Oh
L96[01:52:25] <Kodos> lol
L97[01:52:38] <Kodos> vedrit, MC 1.7.10, version 9.12.2
L98[01:52:43] <vedrit> Thanks
L99[01:52:45] <CovertJaguar> 360 steam per tick
L100[01:52:51] <Kodos> So, 18HP
L101[01:52:55] <CovertJaguar> which is some multiple of a boiler
L102[01:53:00] <Kodos> Half a maxHP
L103[01:53:03] <vedrit> I'm feeling the itch to make a train network
L104[01:53:05] <Natesky9> iirc, a turbine takes half a HP boiler
L105[01:53:13] <Kodos> That's fine, I can just put a turbine on either side of a 36HP

L127[02:14:05] <liach> Such as https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft/issues/1091
L128[02:14:19] <CovertJaguar> we have a spike maul recipe!
L129[02:14:22] <Natesky9> yay
L130[02:14:50] <liach> rebars?
L131[02:15:10] <liach> Too expensive ?
L132[02:15:13] <Natesky9> Ooh, I have a request
L133[02:15:20] <CovertJaguar> @liach one of things that managed to distract me today was investigating the creation of an organization for exactly that reason
L134[02:15:49] <Kodos> How the hell is rebar expensive
L135[02:15:56] <CovertJaguar> its not rebar
L136[02:15:59] <CovertJaguar> it just a stick
L137[02:16:12] <liach> Well, after all, GitHub is a good place where people show their friendly side and be happy together
L138[02:16:13] <Kodos> Point still stands
L139[02:16:16] <Natesky9> Can the tooltip for the spike maul have the word "hammer" in it?
L140[02:16:20] <liach> Iron Block!
L141[02:16:29] <CovertJaguar> a Maul is a hammer
L142[02:16:52] <Natesky9> well yes, but having hammer at least in the tooltip will make it nei searchable
L143[02:17:03] <liach> just search maul
L144[02:17:19] <Natesky9> well, yes, but not everyone is going to remember that
L145[02:17:28] <MrConductor> * CovertJaguar adds "spike driver" to be perverse
L146[02:17:32] <Natesky9> That's the name of the dude with the red face
L147[02:17:47] <Natesky9> in that space battle vidya
L148[02:17:56] <Natesky9> the one where the dude kisses his sister
L149[02:18:01] <Natesky9> (bad jokes)
L150[02:18:48] <CovertJaguar> it has track, and switch, and junction in the tooltip
L151[02:18:53] <CovertJaguar> I don't think finding it will be hard
L152[02:19:33] <Natesky9> Oh, here's a question: Will switching between the different types be free?
L153[02:20:22] <Natesky9> (besides using durability)
L154[02:21:30] <liach> Vanilla tools lose 2 durability when hitting mobs, but why does the maul lose 3?
L155[02:21:59] <CovertJaguar> because it can one hit kill anything with the wrecking enchantment
L156[02:22:17] <Kodos> Unbreaking X, wrecking X ?
L157[02:22:37] <liach> Just use mending is the best ?
L158[02:22:43] <CovertJaguar> it has 14 base damange
L159[02:22:47] <vedrit> So it be... Wrecking IV days?
L160[02:22:51] <vedrit> Eh? Eh?
L161[02:23:05] <CovertJaguar> super slow though
L162[02:23:08] <CovertJaguar> so don't miss
L163[02:23:44] <Natesky9> Oh sweet
L164[02:23:57] <Natesky9> I haven't actually seen many weapons use the new attack speed modifiers
L165[02:23:59] <liach> Vanilla sharpness' damage is reduced
L166[02:24:09] <liach> How about wrecking?
L167[02:24:14] <CovertJaguar> reduced?
L168[02:24:19] <CovertJaguar> they nerfed it?
L169[02:24:39] <liach> http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Enchanting#Sharpness
L170[02:25:08] <liach> Before it was like half a heart each level, like in 1.7
L171[02:25:13] <liach> and mojang nerfed it
L172[02:25:43] <Natesky9> to be fair, it was *the* serration of minecraft
L173[02:25:47] <Natesky9> absolutely necessary
L174[02:26:01] <liach> http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/15w36a#Changes
L175[02:26:18] <CovertJaguar> its probably massively OP then
L176[02:26:21] <Kodos> I wouldn't call it absolutely necessary. I liked to use different enchants depending on what I was doing
L177[02:26:25] <CovertJaguar> 1.5 damage per level
L178[02:26:43] <Kodos> Smite is more OP than sharpness, but it only affects ZP, zombs, and skellies
L179[02:27:28] <Natesky9> you know what I'm really disappointed in
L180[02:27:35] <Natesky9> like, excessively disappointed
L181[02:27:58] <CovertJaguar> I should probably reduce that to 0.5 per level
L182[02:28:24] <CovertJaguar> these are supposed to be tools after all, not the best weapons in the game
L183[02:28:39] <liach> Agree, reduce but add ability to break shields once forge hooks are added
L184[02:28:44] <Natesky9> Poison tipped arrows. Tell me, how many enemies are affected by poison arrows
L185[02:28:53] <CovertJaguar> pigs?
L186[02:28:54] <liach> Try in creative
L187[02:29:05] <Natesky9> Oh, I know the answer
L188[02:29:11] <CovertJaguar> Implosion is 3 damage per level
L189[02:29:17] <CovertJaguar> but only on Creepers
L190[02:29:31] <Natesky9> just tell me, how useful do you think the top tier potion-tipped damage arrows are
L191[02:29:54] <Kodos> Instant Damage II arrows...

L194[02:30:27] <Natesky9> Skeletons
L195[02:30:27] <Natesky9> Zombies
L196[02:30:27] <Natesky9> Creepers
L197[02:30:28] <Natesky9> Spiders
L198[02:30:28] <Natesky9> Anything dead
L199[02:30:39] <liach> use healing arrows for them

L201[02:30:48] <Kodos> Final Fantasy Logic
L202[02:30:48] <liach> tipped arrows are too expensive
L203[02:30:57] <liach> need dragon breath
L204[02:31:01] <Natesky9> The problem with that is that those require gold
L205[02:31:06] <liach> gold?
L206[02:31:16] <liach> Gold are cheap, pigmen tower
L207[02:31:26] <Natesky9> nearly an ingot per 24 arros
L208[02:31:28] <Natesky9> nearly an ingot per 24 arrows
L209[02:31:35] <liach> Still cheap

L211[02:31:45] <Natesky9> Not when every other mod demands gold
L212[02:31:57] <Natesky9> yet another reason not to use gold
L213[02:32:03] <liach> use tech mod for gold
L214[02:32:04] <Natesky9> too valuable
L215[02:32:23] <liach> raid ocean monuments
L216[02:34:06] <Natesky9> at the point that you're geared/find an ocean monument, you don't need the gold
L217[02:34:42] <Natesky9> and at that point, arrows get phased out for things more effective
L218[02:35:07] <liach> why do you need effect arrows anyway
L219[02:35:26] <Natesky9> I've always wanted potions to be more viable

L221[02:35:42] <Natesky9> I was so excited when they gave potions some attention
L222[02:35:50] <Natesky9> then got really disappointed when they still sucked

L268[05:59:47] <GeneralCamo> Whoever said to use a rock crusher to double ores: You can't do that in vanilla Railcraft
L269[06:00:08] <GeneralCamo> There was an addon to allow that, but it hasn't been maintained since 1.6.4 (It was intended for TPPI's use mainly)
L270[06:01:01] <Kodos> Interesting, I wasn't aware that you couldn't
L271[06:01:35] <GeneralCamo> I wouldn't mind Railcraft becoming an industrial themed mod
L272[06:01:56] <GeneralCamo> I'm already thinking of ideas for an improved energy system for Railcraft
L273[06:02:54] <GeneralCamo> Involving an expansion of the Steam mechanics

L275[06:11:31] <Kodos> Such as?
L276[06:14:13] <GeneralCamo> More realistic steam mechanics. Semi-based on IC2, but even more indepth than that
L277[06:14:23] <GeneralCamo> More realistic steam mechanics. Semi-based on IC2_Exp, but even more indepth than that
L278[06:15:32] <GeneralCamo> Water --> Distilled Water --> Low Pressure Boiler --> Superheater (New High Pressure Boiler) --> Turbines & Machinery
L279[06:15:33] <GeneralCamo> Water --> Distilled Water --> Low Pressure Boiler --> Heating & Traps
L280[06:17:09] <Kodos> That seems a bit overly complex, and slightly convoluted
L281[06:17:16] <GeneralCamo> Meh not really
L282[06:17:21] <Kodos> Or wait, is that two separate lines?
L283[06:17:27] <GeneralCamo> Two seperate lines
L284[06:17:55] <GeneralCamo> Saturated steam can be put to use in your ovens, or you can "upgrade" it to Superheated for additional power generation.
L285[06:18:31] <GeneralCamo> Saturated Steam can be used in Turbines, but it would damage them faster. And you wouldn't get the efficiency of Superheated Steam
L286[06:20:19] <GeneralCamo> Distilled Water would serve to reduce damage of boilers and steam locomotives
L287[06:20:35] <GeneralCamo> From deposits found in hard water
L288[06:24:08] <Kodos> So basically, you're just adding a reason to use a specific type of boiler, but in the form of changing the HP machine name
L289[06:25:26] <GeneralCamo> A reason to use both types of boilers
L290[06:25:39] <GeneralCamo> I mean, who uses Low Pressure Boilers once they are flowing in fuel?
L291[06:26:22] <GeneralCamo> The difference between Low Pressure and High Pressure is a pure numbers game, which isn't exactly true to Real Life either
L292[06:34:15] <Kodos> But why would you use HP for things like the Steam Oven, even in current RC?
L293[06:36:47] <GeneralCamo> You probably wouldn't
L294[06:37:01] <GeneralCamo> (And still wouldn't under this system. Superheated steam is not a great conductor of heat)
L295[06:46:53] <Kodos> Right but that's my point, what's different about your suggestion compared to w hat we have now

L302[07:36:29] <Natesky9> Absolutely. Especially when you flick them on in sequence, and they're doing a sine wave
L303[07:37:10] <Natesky9> That's one thing I hope never changes, is the model for steam engines

L315[07:48:15] <GeneralCamo> I did want to expand some animation stuff, like the Steam Turbine
L316[07:48:45] <Natesky9> Yeah, that could do for a visual update
L317[07:48:58] <GeneralCamo> Agreed that the RF Engines in Railcraft look good
L318[07:49:13] <GeneralCamo> IMO: They should be moved to the RF module
L319[07:49:40] <GeneralCamo> Furthermore that module should just use Forge Energy when the move to 1.11 is done
L320[07:49:58] <GeneralCamo> As opposed to removing the things
L321[07:50:25] <Natesky9> Here's a thought. How difficult would it be to make a 3d model for rails?
L322[07:51:06] <Kodos> To make the model? Not hard. Implementing it? Not much harder, I would imagine. I dunno if it would end up being laggy though
L323[07:51:53] <GeneralCamo> That's probably a question for CJ
L324[07:54:58] <LuigiHutch> CJ said is is planning to move away from rf/forge energy btw
L325[07:55:35] <Kodos> Didn't he mention wanting everything to just run off steam directly

L342[11:56:16] <Natesky9> The problem with *just* using Railcraft charge is that there would not be compatibility with rf accepting machines
L343[12:01:12] <Natesky9> And one of the biggest contenders of the entire mod *is* the energy system. The massive multiblock powerhouse
L344[12:01:18] <Natesky9> Also the massive tanks

L346[12:02:02] <Natesky9> Those are the selling points for this mod, for the people who wouldn't otherwise use the mod
L347[12:02:26] <Forecaster> steam engines make RF
L348[12:02:31] <Forecaster> you can turn RF into charge

L351[12:03:57] <Natesky9> But if the mod were to shift from RF power to pure RC charge, as CJ had planned
L352[12:04:07] <Natesky9> That might not be the case
L353[12:04:15] <Natesky9> Which would be very unfortunate
L354[12:04:19] <Forecaster> ...when was that planned?
L355[12:04:57] <Natesky9> "<LuigiHutch> CJ said is is planning to move away from rf/forge energy btw"
L356[12:05:56] <Forecaster> okay
L357[12:06:26] <Forecaster> I dunno
L358[12:08:21] <LuigiHutch> '<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'
L359[12:09:45] <Forecaster> that seems like a shame but oh well
L360[12:22:36] <vedrit> I don't know what the issue with RF is
L361[12:22:45] <vedrit> Why move away from it?
L362[12:25:11] <LuigiHutch> its just become an arms race in who can produce the highest number imo
L363[12:28:32] <Natesky9> Well, I disagree, to an extent. There have been attempts between the major authors to re balance rf around typical values of charcoal
L364[12:29:06] <Natesky9> Now, mods like extra utilities and big reactors... Don't want to
L365[12:29:48] <Natesky9> In that regards, yes, they just do silly numbers because they can
L366[12:30:19] <LuigiHutch> rly? https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/4pak8h/i_compared_all_coal_generators/
L367[12:32:34] <Natesky9> Some of those have a good reason for being good
L368[12:35:40] *** MrKick|Away is now known as MrKickkiller
L369[12:36:01] <Natesky9> The top three are because of the crazy amount of augments/infuse upgrade stuff. That's reasonable, seeing as it means they won't be creeped out with better generators too quickly
L370[12:37:15] <LuigiHutch> the fact that mods have to have crazy upgrades to avoid being creeped out is whats wrong with rf imo
L371[12:38:07] <Natesky9> More steps = more power
L372[12:38:29] <Natesky9> And the upgrades aren't really the problem
L373[12:38:54] <Natesky9> If anything, they help by allowing flexibility/tiering up machines
L374[12:39:53] <Natesky9> I'd rather have something that can be cheap, but upgradable than have to make several for the same effect
L375[12:41:11] <LuigiHutch> its more about 'avoid being creeped out' means that its just an arms race in numbers rather than providing a better gameplay experience
L376[12:44:07] <Natesky9> You will always have competition between mods. That's just an unavoidable fact. But blaming the power system because of an overpowered machine is like blaming Ford for getting hit by a truck
L377[12:49:55] <LuigiHutch> but TE and rf set the precedent of producing a higher number is better than producing a lower number. look at when te moved to rf and made their dynamos 8x more powerful than BC's Stirling engine just because. that trend has just continued ever since
L378[12:54:58] <Natesky9> 1 MJ = 10 RF iirc
L379[13:00:47] <SkySom> I don't recall it being that much.
L380[13:00:55] <SkySom> I thought it was 1:4 or 1:8

L468[19:18:24] <GeneralCamo> And I'm back
L469[19:18:25] <GeneralCamo> Hello
L470[19:18:38] <Natesky9> from the other side?
L471[19:18:42] <Natesky9> ♪
L472[19:19:05] <liach> Hi
L473[19:19:06] <GeneralCamo> The problem with RF is that it's unstable
L474[19:19:15] <Natesky9> unstable how?
L475[19:19:24] <GeneralCamo> In terms of the scene around it
L476[19:19:35] <Natesky9> Oh, you mean the drama and stuff
L477[19:19:41] <GeneralCamo> Remember that RF in 1.11 is pretty much unmaintained as well
L478[19:19:50] <GeneralCamo> Even more reason to move away from it
L479[19:19:59] <Natesky9> Yeah, I don't know what's been up with team Cofh
L480[19:20:33] <GeneralCamo> My suggestion is to break away from RF completely. Add FE as a compatibility module (which would be the engines and the charge converter block)
L481[19:21:09] <GeneralCamo> Since FE is supposed to be the maintained successor to RF
L482[19:21:34] <GeneralCamo> But I don't trust the balance of it too much
L483[19:25:29] <GeneralCamo> https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft/issues/193
L484[19:25:40] <GeneralCamo> @CovertJaguar This needs to be renamed or closed
L485[19:26:37] <GeneralCamo> http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Concrete
L486[19:26:43] <GeneralCamo> It's being implemented into vanilla Minecraft
L487[19:26:57] <Kodos> And?
L488[19:26:58] <GeneralCamo> Existing concrete should probably be renamed "Reinforced Concrete"
L489[19:27:27] <Kodos> Immersive Engineering already added concrete and Liquid Concrete, and a multiblock liquid maker (Even does potions)
L490[19:27:32] <Kodos> Doesn't mean RC can't still add it, too
L491[19:27:43] <GeneralCamo> Fair I guess
L492[19:28:00] <Kodos> Not everyone uses both mods, anyway
L493[19:28:09] <CovertJaguar> wow that looks derpy as hell
L494[19:28:36] <Kodos> The gravity blocks are the 'powder', you have to place water next to it to form the concrete
L495[19:29:08] <GeneralCamo> It reminds me of IC2's system actually
L496[19:29:12] <GeneralCamo> Exp's that is
L497[19:29:23] <GeneralCamo> (I guess you could automate it like that GIF, though that seems impractical at BEST)
L498[19:29:51] <Kodos> With a block breaker it could be done. It's too bad End Rods dont' function like Quark makes them
L499[19:30:37] <GeneralCamo> Indeed
L500[19:31:23] <GeneralCamo> @CovertJaguar I suggest for 1.12 (assuming Railcraft ever gets ported to that, apparently there is some massive change or something incoming?) that the Concrete in Railcraft be renamed to "reinforced concrete", and replace the stone in the recipe with the concrete in 1.12
L501[19:33:11] <CovertJaguar> I'm just going to pretend none of that exists and keep using my concrete made out of quartz and blast furnace slag
L502[19:34:50] <GeneralCamo> Quartz and Blast Furnace slag?
L503[19:35:04] <GeneralCamo> That's a completely different recipe from what I remember, I missed a lot didn't I?
L504[19:35:16] <CovertJaguar> those block are just flat textures, are they getting lazy over there?
L505[19:35:35] <GeneralCamo> (Well we have been saying that for the past few updates yeah)
L506[19:35:53] <GeneralCamo> TBF it's just in snapshots. I remember the first Beacon Block texture
L507[19:36:04] <GeneralCamo> I could have done a better job in 5 minutes
L508[19:37:25] <GeneralCamo> (Though if the concrete texture doesn't get upgraded, I will question why I should use "concrete" over hardened clay for my builds)
L509[19:38:12] <GeneralCamo> Anyway, moving on

L513[19:41:18] <GeneralCamo> https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft/issues/814
L514[19:41:31] <GeneralCamo> I hear Forge has some new function on this topic
L515[19:41:40] <GeneralCamo> Apparently added for Chisels and Bit's purposes
L516[19:41:49] <GeneralCamo> Apparently added for Chisels and Bits' purposes
L517[19:42:14] <Kodos> The one thing concrete has over clay is the colors are more vibrant
L518[19:42:47] <liach> the minecraft one cannot be called concrete. they are cement in fact
L519[19:44:00] <CovertJaguar> @GeneralCamo eh, that's more am OpenGL render context issue
L520[19:44:07] <CovertJaguar> those are TESRs done in OpenGL
L521[19:44:14] <GeneralCamo> Oh
L522[19:44:15] <CovertJaguar> not models
L523[19:44:46] <CovertJaguar> Player and Vexatos broke it and I've been to busy with other stuff to figure which line is missing
L524[19:45:09] <Player> pff, it was working back then :D
L525[19:45:25] <GeneralCamo> #alwaysblameplayer
L526[19:45:29] <Player> should still work for 1.8+, just needs a hole in the json model
L527[19:45:40] <CovertJaguar> only when you stood right next to it ;)
L528[19:46:00] <CovertJaguar> if you backed away 10-20 meters it goes dark
L529[19:46:14] <GeneralCamo> @Player Since you "broke" it and apparently know how to fix it, why don't you do it? ?
L530[19:46:37] <Player> hmm then the z offset is insufficient
L531[19:46:49] <Player> or the tesr range is insufficient
L532[19:46:52] <Player> but likely the former
L533[19:46:56] <CovertJaguar> the texture is transparent
L534[19:47:00] <CovertJaguar> it just stops glowing
L535[19:47:09] <CovertJaguar> the color remains visible
L536[19:47:48] <Player> hmm screenshot?
L537[19:48:11] <CovertJaguar> https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft/issues/814
L538[19:49:09] <Player> hmm could also be that gl lighting is still on
L539[19:49:14] <Player> and wrong normals for that
L540[19:49:26] <CovertJaguar> probably
L541[19:49:42] <CovertJaguar> I don't figure it will be too hard to fix, I'm just not there yet
L542[19:49:43] <Player> ah i already wrote that in the issue :D
L543[19:49:57] <Player> note that some gl state are per texture unit
L544[19:50:01] <Player> and mc uses 2 texture units
L545[19:50:06] <CovertJaguar> hmm
L546[19:50:23] <Player> one for the actual texture, one for lighting
L547[19:50:39] <CovertJaguar> oh I think I know what you are talking about
L548[19:51:50] <CovertJaguar> bleh, this wye json is weird as hell, rotate it backwards, mirror it, then swap states under certain conditions, but it seems to work now

L550[19:53:04] <GeneralCamo> @CovertJaguar There was a question in this chat about how hard it would be to make tracks 3d models
L551[19:53:12] <Natesky9> Ah, yes
L552[19:53:22] <Natesky9> I think that would make them look alot better
L553[19:53:25] <CovertJaguar> not too hard, I have models for the basic shapes
L554[19:53:48] <CovertJaguar> see https://github.com/CovertJaguar/Railcraft-3D
L555[19:54:14] <Natesky9> Why models over bipmap-based uh, vertex buffers?
L556[19:54:17] <GeneralCamo> Oh wow I completely forgot that resource packs enable that feature
L557[19:54:29] <CovertJaguar> the problem is you need new textures for everything to split the track from the ties
L558[19:54:43] <CovertJaguar> or cheat I suppose
L559[19:55:39] <CovertJaguar> cheat my mapping different parts of the texture to the ties under the track and the top of the track to the sides
L560[19:55:46] <Player> sounds like a job for the new multipart models
L561[19:56:20] <CovertJaguar> its not hards, just need someone famillar with the JSON system to do a bunch of tedious work
L562[19:56:22] <GeneralCamo> Oh hey good idea. THat would allow interfacing with the kits as well, yeah?
L563[19:56:35] <CovertJaguar> I've made sure that the Railcraft tracks are all JSON defined
L564[19:57:30] <Joshwoo70> *pukes* json
L565[19:58:02] <Joshwoo70> Dabbled wth a bit of json in my little modding experience imo... i don't like it
L566[19:58:16] <GeneralCamo> It's human readable at least
L567[19:58:24] <GeneralCamo> So you can use notepad++ to work with it
L568[19:58:29] <GeneralCamo> Great for quick fixes
L569[19:58:56] <Joshwoo70> that works too
L570[19:59:39] <Joshwoo70> https://hjson.org what you think? i probably prefer this over regular json
L571[20:00:50] <CovertJaguar> eh, Intellij has all the assistence I need
L572[20:01:03] <CovertJaguar> syntax checking, formatting, etc...
L573[20:01:24] <CovertJaguar> I use CubikStudio for making models
L574[20:03:00] <Natesky9> Frankly, json is pretty slow because of string comparison
L575[20:03:11] <Natesky9> however, it's very good at being able to be read
L576[20:03:42] <CovertJaguar> not much point in debating the merits, it what we have to live with
L577[20:06:49] <Natesky9> What's the difference in Json, and NBT?
L578[20:07:46] <Player> json just is supposed to be hand written by mojang and forge..
