This mod will add a Geiger counter which measures harmless radiation emitted by mese, mese crystals, and nyan cat. Nyan cat emits crazy amount of radiation so it is detected from 50 block away but others are less. This mod should make your mining easer. (basically a mese and nyan cat finder)


Download: Version 1.0


Depends: default


License:
code = WTFPL
textures = WTFPL
sounds = WTFPL


Craft:
M = mese block
S = steel block

Geiger Counter =

M S M
M M M
M S M

pictures: coming soon

To use: hold guiger counter and use it (left click) to use. It will give out sound for 1 second and show level in chat. higher the level, higher the tone. level is divided in to 0 - 10

Level chart:
10 = nyan cat in 5 blocks
9 = nyan cat in 10 blocks
8 = nyan cat in 20 blocks
7 = nyan cat in 30 blocks
6 = nyan cat in 40 blocks
5 = nyan cat in 50 blocks or mese in 5 blocks
4 = mese in 10 blocks
3 = mese in 20 blocks
2 = mese in 30 blocks or mese crystal in 5 blocks
1 = mese crystals in 10 blocks
0 = no radiation detected


please vote if you downloaded.
please post any ideas, comments, or pictures.

I like the idea of having a tool. It makes it much more skill and less luck. I would like it even more if it returned the distance from mese or nyan non stop. Tone can be played when nearing one level to the node.

The tools lifespan bar can be used to show the nearness level.

Crackling sounds would be a big plus and i think not hard to implement. You just need one good (not to load) crackling sound and play it multiple times at the same time for a more intense crackling soundeffect when nearer to mese.

Cool! It should detect nyan cat rainbow too but nyan cat rainbows should only make about 10% of the radiation that nyan cats do.

Edit, also, different sounds for mese than nyan cats would be nice

sorry but I don't want to make it too easy. it does detect nyan cat rainbow too as nyan cat and I fount 3 nyan cat in an hour. that is easy enough because people spends month searching one and never find any.

There should be a group called radioactive, and the number could be how far away the node would need to be for it to be detected.

ok I will add that. With 10 levels being more accurate.
