Since i added way to force other mods items to convert to mine i added
config to prevent this. In the rare case that a mod has an oreXXX that
doesn't convert to ingotXXX
Its a very good idea but a bit harder than i though. I'm going to have
to get very creative with what i can pull from the game. Including how i
want to handle textures as they need to be loaded in a way both the mod
can use and later a website design. Though i want to avoid having the
xml file be packaged with textures inorder to work.
Took some time to find were the generator stores its values but i found
them and matched them up. I might come back to this later and create a
master ore generator config to override vinalla ores
There were several issues were i over looked how the tools worked. Main
one was canHarvest as i forgot the method and needed to use a forge
version to get it to work correctly. It not works though i'll need to
fine tune it some more.
Read wires.txt for notes on new wire design. As for network i'm going to
create a way to store multi-networks in a block to allow for more
advanced control.
This is more of me starting back up on global access lists for sentry
guns and chests. The idea right now is to create a system like bukkit
plugin permissions has. In which a player can create a group, assign
command node, and then assign players. As well can assign direct command
nodes to the player user instance. These groups will be managed from a
GUI that can be access anytime. The data will be saved to a NBT file in
the map, and can be access by any object. Objects will not save a copy
of the list but will request it to be loaded.
Not sure why but i decided to work on these. I know i'll end up using
them but not sure why i decided to make them now.
Converted UE Eletrical Display into two separate classes for my use.
EletricUnit enum, and MeticUnit enum.
Added enums for force, pressure, temperature. Force is filled out but
not completed. As well each of these are missing more units but the main
ones are there.
Tbh i'm done for now as i need to think of a fast way to do this.
Possibly i might just want to consider only filling in the elements i
plan to use. Eg Fe, Ag, Au
Did say i was going to do it. As i started to work down the list i
realized even though its hard to read its better this way. Still need to
test how much this impacts the system and if i should turn it into a
data base instead.
Well at least for those that actually have densities. Some of these
element are man made and don't really exist. So i assume there density
has never been measure or are not public knowledge yet. Either way i
have no use for most of this data so it doesn't bother me. The data i
need is the common elements the rest was just added to have a complete
periodic element list.
Once done this enum will be worth the time. However, its going to take a
lot of time to flush out all the information. As well i still need to
add math helpers to calculate all the formulas that go with these.
I might just merge this with chemElement enum when finished. However,
for now its a bit hard to work with just one. So i started to create a
version just for thermal properties. Main use for my mods will be
heating values.
Ctrl+v for the win. I honestly copied the data out of a csv file and
manually added the ( " , to each line. Honestly this was a stupid move
as i could code something to read and import that csv file. Though i'm
looking to create a code based version. I still need to at least add
density per element and then heating values for the ones i plan to use.
Plan is to include all elements from the periodic table with as much
information as possible per elements. This might get long so i might
want to consider constructing a data base that will be parsed per use.
That way only a few elements are loaded into memory instead of over 255.
I was going to just work on and release the coal gen as a self contained
generator. Instead i'm going to make it a 2+ part system. The system
must contain a heat produce, and heat collector. It can also include
block to help contain, move, and maintain the heat.
Changed it to actually use ISimplePacketReceiver instead of
TileEntityMachine prefab having a sub class to handle it. Shouldn't
really change anything but does reduce a little bit of code
The idea is to let the object being registered control all aspects of
how its registered. This started with the blocks adding config files,
disabling themselves, and loading their own tile entities. Now i'm
working on having the tile entities register their own renderers, and
have configs as well. Give that the registration is actually handled by
the ModObjectRegistry and the object just provided the data instead of
the mod class.
In some cases this will be needed especial when other mods work with
mine. I'll need to make a system so users can add item to the processor
black list.
Also added damage output to normal processors so that some items don't
return in a clean form. Cases are for planks, ingots, plates, and some
blocks. This is to set the way for salvager machines later down the
road. In which will cost a lot and take a lot of time. Over normal
processor salvaging that will mess up just about anything that goes into
it.
Removed the dependency on using the material enum as it was adding ores
that should not generate which was causing a lot of issues. So to solve
this the block has its own enum set of ores it will work with. However,
i still need to reset the ore generator
tried to use the solar panel for a test of the annotion system for
registering tileEntities and loading block based configs. However, my
code could no get the annotions for use. I will have to correct it and
retest it on another block.
