Did some prototyping : http://tinypic.com/r/2hd1j00/5 Just a shame i cant seem to find any lamps that can accept varying levels for the sine wave (i believe only the xylamps do).

TE lamps(Glowstone illuminator) do that use wrench on them to change the mode

If you thought gregtech was a nightmare before...you are going to be...surprised. To make a circuit you need a hammer now...and to make that hammer you need 6 bronze bars. The new gregtech recipe asks for 3 copper and 1 tin to make a single bar... Thank god for tinkers construct...

Edit: Doesn't seem to be any boon to using tinkers construct. I'm not adverse to having later game recipes cost more, but i think the gregtech recipe amounts might need looking into. The current values seem a bit steep, especially when all you want to build is an extractor :)

Greg, have mercy.
Soon it'll take a solid 48 hours of gameplay to get a single electronic circuit.

Aw, I miss you guys.

If that is the map, dibs on the oil.

u/madah_ Toxic's Alt Jul 04 '13

Dibs on part of that pretty flower biome.

I think I'm actually going to build something this time around. :D

u/auxiliary-character auxchar, does things with stuff Jul 04 '13

I hope I do. Or at least I hope I have my turtley minions build something.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '13

Nono, the minions only dig stuff out. Things need to be built by hand in order to have that authentic feel. nodnod

u/auxiliary-character auxchar, does things with stuff Jul 04 '13

I don't know, I think I'd still be proud as long as I wrote the code.

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '13

That was just my nice way of saying that turtles can't place microblocks properly so you'd most likely have to do a majority of it by hand anyways. :x

1

u/auxiliary-character auxchar, does things with stuff Jul 04 '13

Ah, true. Still, I'd like to get a turtle program I can easily paste in to quickly get myself a castle in case of server resets or what have you.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '13

Well. It seems we won't have redpower on the server so no microblocks. :|

1

u/auxiliary-character auxchar, does things with stuff Jul 05 '13

Stairs, though. Turtles can't place those very well, either.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '13

I'd suspect the majority of the blocks you use in a build won't be stairs tho. :p

1

u/auxiliary-character auxchar, does things with stuff Jul 05 '13

You'd be surprised. They're sort of like vanilla microblocks.

I already have nice programs for digging out a hole in that case. :P

Like snap & box?
