    @huggles is it okay with you if I use mystcraft portals and intralinking books to connect your island to the road, as opposed to making a huge undersea tunnel to your island?
    Build a couple of crystal portals with interlinking books and have the road come out of the portals on both sides.

    Basically what I just suggested :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

    @Takel not sure if you had wanted to save Erebor with whatever tools you said could cut/paste, but it's going to get more difficult as I'm starting to use more special blocks and stuff to make things look nicer.

    Not quite sure what you mean by this

    I assume he is expressing concern over the 1.7 map not having the exact same mods, thus leading to many of his special bricks vanishing/rendering the area uncopy&pastable

    Oh, I've got plans for that. I'm not entirely sure if Microblocks are salvageable, but I intend on having a substitution sheet or a nearest match at the very least.

    Edit:
    The ItemIDs at the very least are going to change, whether or not that's going to be user controlled, I don't know yet. At best, it'll all be auto. At the most granular level of control, I'll be doing my own configs from the ground up. I'm tired of having to cross reference a spreadsheet for ID blocks I can use while attempting to keep things contiguous.

    Under my assumed scenario, I'll be substituting blocks with vanilla blocks which would otherwise not be used, which then lets me do a regional mass replace at a later date with whatever new ID is being used. I'll be doing the same with CCCS Moskau.

    That is awesome. <3

    Edit: Can anyone think of a way to make chain looking things holding something in place? I was thinking maybe microblocks, but not sure how involved that would be.

    Basically going to be suspending objects from the roof or walls.

    @Takel‌

    Sooo..I saw this Minecraft map in the SE++ thread.

    You know, just putting this here..what you choose to do with it is your business.

  • TakelTakel Registered User regular
    *adjusts monocle* Bit small isn't it?

    I think I'd prefer something like this, assuming of course we wanted a pre-baked landscape. To be honest, I don't know if a pre-generated landscape can be incorporated into the server in a meaningful manner. The random terrain generation is one entire aspect of the pack after all.

    The only pre-generated map I can think of that would be an ok fit would be an isolated skyblock map that's gated by disarming books in and out.

    Boo. Google image results don't return much. Although bigger chains look do able. So I think I'll just up the scale of what I wanted to do a bit.

    @Huggles I've built 3 undersea tunnels so far, and miles of road constructed out of a pattern impossible to lay in any way but by hand block by block.

    Oh man. I'm going to finish it as much as I have practically planned.
    Like there is a dream to make a housing district...and other crazy stuff. But right now its throneroom, garden, forge area.

    Although I may just start a thing right before I leave, just because.

    Xeno, I was talking about something like this:

    That could be surrounded by glass, and make up the 'core' pillar with levels looking into it.

    Put open block tanks in the actual structure, then fill it with liquids. Like destabilised redstone so it can double as a power store

    Call for labor: I am at a point where I think I have a pattern set with throne room. Should be easy to follow. Everything needed is grown/housed in the temp housing by the entrance. The green bricks are Ender Essence bricks. Not emerald.
    I'm going to do 5 pillars on each side with statues, if you can follow along on what is currently in place.
    Also if you are so inclined building a statue of yourself out of rockwool/whatever else would be much appreciated. If we need to we can extend out and make more pillars.

    Edit:
    I wasn't sure how to post this. Just everytime anyone offered help, I didn't have a set thing ready yet. I do now, and will try and keep a project for people that want to help.

    Alright, to be fair I thought it was just a "design a cool road pattern."
    I didn't know you were going to make a road grid for the entire server.

    Whoo! I've got one side sort of done. and ender essence bricks sitting in a barrel on the walk way. Was trying to get more glowstone, but that should be processing over night, and I'll make the blocks and chisel them tomorrow.
    Hope you can fly, as that is kind of needed for the area. If not, I'll see what else I can get going (and work on getting power armor jetpacks for people who want to helps).

    Also, @Buttcleft going to be terraforming I guess. Or just leaving the ugly cover over. Maybe, we'll see if I change my mind by tomorrow.

    @Takel‌

    I was thinking about rotarycraft..The only significant problems you've had with it (to my knowledge) is its power generators being badly laggy. So, Isn't there a way you could disable the recipes for just the power generators, and keep rotarycraft..and just use the Magnetostatic Engine to power specific Rotarycraft things off RF power?

    I mean, I understand fully that this isn't a foolproof fix, and there might be factors I'm unaware of beyond things like the Solar Towers sucking up all the tickrate, but There are some really fun things in rotarycraft and I was just hoping to find some kind of happy middle ground but I understand completely if a middle ground is not possible or feasible.

  • RadiationRadiation Registered User regular
    @Takel how hard would it be to do terraforming with some of the mod tools? Just trying to shape some of the mountain above current project.

    PSN: jfrofl
  • TakelTakel Registered User regular
    It'll be a bit of a pain at the moment. I'll need to get another plugin like Voxel Sniper, which is far better suited for terrain shaping than WorldEdit.

  • RadiationRadiation Registered User regular
    Will it put terrain over objects without changing the object below it?
    I mean I can manually terraform (it was a task I had already planned for on top), but again if there are tools available and we can use them, then shit yeah!

    PSN: jfrofl
  • TakelTakel Registered User regular
    WorldEdit is more of a region editor. It has the ability to regenerate regions, but if you try to use it to build new terrain on top of stuff, it's a bit tricky.

    Voxel Sniper on the other hand is a proper 'paint' tool. I'll look into getting it onto the server. It apparently takes a little bit to get used to and learn how to use it though, but the results are good.

    I wouldn't worry about it too much, I was worried about encroaching into the snow biome west of the throne room, but I can totally build a wall type thing, and have it as a keep.
    Still would have to terraform a bit, but not as much as I was initially afraid of.

    @Radiation do what I did when it comes to terraforming.

    Sooo I forgot to set up an overflow disposal system for my surplus seeds.

    Which means a significant chunk of my farm was locked up and shut down.

    Which explains why my basement has been so..habitable as of late.

    @Takel‌
    I have placed everything regarding my reactor but the ore processing in a resonant strong box in your cobble hut, including all the fuel I have and the cyanite reprocessor and the aqac used to supply it with water.

    I also have a Rotarycraft ore processing setup that can provide up to 5x return (as opposed to plain ol' doubling) on any fissionable fuel ores you come across which you are welcome to have, but I did not include it because it is powered by a RF>Rotarycraft dynamo that sucks up A LOT of power while running. If you want it but, as I thought, do not have the power capacity to run it even temporarily, I can give you a tesseract to run it off my power, no problem.

    Well, I finally got sick and tired of not having proper basic automation that I packed up and moved most of my stuff into my under-construction house... had to dig out two new side rooms, but I now have a new dedicated processing room and a storage room... Now I have to start working towards bigger automation for resources since the nascent ME Net has pretty much drained me of all my stuff


    And holy crap Heated Redstone Generators are stupidly powerful. A single bucket charged six Hardened Leadstone Cells with plenty to spare...
