[Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]

[Nore]

You must use an old version of mesecons with Technic, else it won't work.

The latest technic version works with the latest mesecons

[Nore]

Sorry for that wrong anwser...

But technic doen't use the new mesecons API yet (that's why I was confused)

[4aiman]

Ok.. And I just wanted to post some logs to prove myself right :)
Then, who can fix this:

Suggestion: Power meters so we can set up large power networks and bill customers for power usage. Also, a working transformer can help, so we can link up MV and LV circuits.

+ 100500 RealBadAngel, please update technic!

[Inocudom]

Jeija must have changed something in mesecons, because this mod and the bobblocks mod do not have compatibility with it.

[keneticquartz]

It is very cool, but, the mesecons API is outdated. So, please make a new version. P.S. : i am new.

[Spots]

RealBadAngel is currently doing the more trees coding and tons of other items i'm sure he will get around to updating this mod when he has a free moment

[RealBadAngel]

Updated mod to work with latest pipeworks, mesecons and stairsplus.

[madarexxx]

RealBadAngel, can you implement transformators LV - MV ? I'm stuck without them
p.s. thanks for update

[Nore]

Could you make furnaces, grinders, ... compatible with pipeworks? Moreover, the node breaker has already been integrated in pipeworks. Finally, could you explain how energy works? (For a developer that wants to make something that uses energy)

[Nore]

And could you add recipes for the new pipeworks tubes? (they are disabled by the presence of technic)

All technic devices shall be updated to work with tubes today.
About nodebreakers, deployers, constructors etc i cant allow them to be moved to pipeworks. Theyre parts of bigger, not yet finished, goal - automatic moveable on frames quarries.
On the makin new devices that use energy i will write HOW-TO.

Im on irc atm, please msg me

[GloopMaster]

Wow, you're actually working on it.

[RealBadAngel]

Wow, you're actually working on it.

Suprised? :P

[Jordach]

Yup, this is looking good!

[GloopMaster]

Wow, you're actually working on it.

Suprised? :P

Very much so.

Found (maybe) bug -> when i put deployer in front of node braker
-> ....... <-
Deployer | free space (1 cube) | node braker

Connected to same mesecon - when i turned em on - game crashed
@EDIT: I use latest versions of technic and minetest...
This bug succesfully killed my map xD always when i go on it FPS = 0
@EDIT2: After reboot it's okay...
@EDIT3: CHecked, crashes everytime when deployer should put cube...

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

/minetest/bin/.../builtin/item.lua:236 :
attempt to call method 'get_player_control' (a nil value)

@DOWN: THX, i use latest from Git :D Or maybe... pipeworks added it..

In current version of technic deployer is disabled, because its not finished. I dont know what version are you using.
It was enabled earlier and was testing object.
Deployer will be back in a few days.
Now workin on MV electric furnaces.

[rarkenin]

Do you think MV<->LV transformers are feasible?

[RealBadAngel]

Do you think MV<->LV transformers are feasible?

LV, MV and HV are tiers of the machines. Which means you are supposed to upgrade them to get better ones.
Not just takin simple LV furnace and connect it to a circuit powered by a Nuclear Reactor for example.

When you got enough resources you build your LV machinery. You gather more resources, create alloys then you
upgrade all the stuff to get MV ones, more efficient, with many improvements like tubes, more capacity,faster etc.

Makin shortcuts is not the point of surrival game with Technic.

EDIT:
upgrading the LV electric furnace to get MV one, recipe is

stainless steel, LV Furnnace, stainless steel
pneumatic tube, MV transformer, pneumatic tube
stainless steel, MV wire, stainless steel

[Nore]

He is using the pipeworks deployer, I think.

[RealBadAngel]

Re-added Deployer.

[Nore]

You should perhaps not allow items to be taken out of locked chests by tubes, because one could use it to steal items.

good point

i was thinkin bout it whole day today
figured out that there is just one proper solution
Locked chests shall not be connectable to the tubes network
Lets treat locked chests as safe.
OR let them accept only input

Input from ALL SIDES should be nice, so stupid raiders end up donating their stuff!

[Ragnarok]

Is there a special way to connect MV Electric Furnace? I've connected it to MV Battery box and MV Solar Panel. Battery box is full but the furnace doesn't have an energy. What am I doing wrong?
