Re: WIP: The Island
Some sad news... I think I'm going to have to withdraw from Minetest. I've tried every combination of driver updates, minimal settings, mod combinations and whatnot...but still it runs like it's 1999. :( I think my chromebook is simply out of it's league here. I ruined my Linux set up twice to get i...

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Does this mod have any compatibility issues with Mesecons ? I can't seem to get the water pump on, punching it only puts it back in my inventory. Everytime I add a switch or a lever, they disappear while playing the sound, comes back and flips green like it's on, then pop into my inventory. But the ...

Is there a config I need to change?

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.11] [technic]
A nice in between of cheat and help is to use unified inventory to see the recipes. You don't need to give yourself any and it'd be more useful for research then to be turned off. The great thing is you can reverse the steps, i.e. How do I make a boat. [ ][ ][ ] [x][ ][x] [x][x][x] Where x is wood p...

Re: WIP: The Island
Btw, you can create a "worldmods" subdirectory in your world and include there any particular mods your world requires. In theory you could make special mods and textures for the map if you wanted to. Easier than making a complete custom game. This is EXACTLY what I needed! I'm using a bu...

Re: WIP: The Island
Thank you both for your feedback! I realized after I posted this that there is a 'map' section here so yeah, that'd probably be best. This whole concept is based off the 'island chain' map I found at Seed: 42, Mapgen: V7 so the concept really wouldn't work with other seeds. I'll try to move this top...

WIP: The Island
So in one of my play through I made something that sparked an idea. Basically it was a forcefield powered by an underground Nuclear Powerplant (both from the Technics mod) that was covering a staircase in the middle of nowhere. The forcefield could be turned off by a Mesacon signal...hidden on a dif...

Hey, so you seem to be adding things to technic, I had a suggestion...

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.11] [technic]
My gameplay has been leaning heavily on this mod. Love it. Made a killer Nuclear Powerplant. I would absolutely suggest building it underground (i.e. the top of the plant is level with the ground) since a big concrete box looks ugly. Plus if it ever (mine hasn't but who knows) melts down, it melts i...

Oooh. Intrigued! This would be a great way of telling when a machine is actually receiving power (specifically the big complicated ones) instead of running all over trying to figure out what the problem is.

So this is partly a duplicate and partly not (I think) I stumbled across (but can't find to reply) a post about trying to jump higher.
