Though it was the release valve but it turns out the Storage tanks
needed coding to drain themselves after giving the release valve the
liquid ammount present.
Other than that the rest of the changes are just renaming from past push
Added: Item Render for Pipe
Added: Item Render for Tank
Changed: Improve motor model
Changed: Tank vol to use global var
Disabled: Motor rotation( tempary)
Fixed: Pick Block for all blocks except pipe which picks to steam pipe
etc etc normal cleanup and derps
Nothing really change for updating to 1.4.5 to 1.4.6 only had to fix 3
errors related to UE Vector3. However i did correct a config file bug as
well as fix pump wire connect to work better.
Did some file changes to make finding things easier
Added: Custom creative tab
Changed: File root system, :p to many files
Changed: Tank liquid trade method to balance out instead of full trade
Changed: the packet update rate of the Tank to try to fix Render Lag
Fixed: Tank Render so Liquid levels can be seen
BugIgnorable: uneven levels of liquid will not show up on tank render
but are present
BugIgnorable: eValve names sometime glitch and call all instances Empty
XXX
TODO: Fix Textures, and add model for eValve
TODO: Finish One way valve
TODO: Finish OIL,STEAM,FUEL liquid/gas blocks
Fixed: the pipes having the same name as eValves
Fixed: Liquid tank trading system
Fixed: Tank being full and not filling next tank
Fixed: empty version of things showing up for Liquid type default
Added: eValve recipes
CleanedUP: Recipes, and convered most # to enum data to make things
easier to read
Everything is now converted to Forge Liquid API system. Everything also
works too some degree, but more bug testing is need.
Fixed: Issue with pump pumping none still sources
Fixed: Issue with EValve no getting powered on map load
ReAdded: StorageTank
etc etc minor cleanup, changes, stuff
Update to 1.4.5 as well forge's merged folder system
also a part update to using forge's liquid api, the
rest will be updated later after basic pipes is finished
and can be used as a jar to prevent import issues
fixed some issues with pipes but the main change is the addition of the
extractor valve(better name to come). This valve cause a machine to
start to output liqiud to basic Utilities pipes at a pressure so they
work. The Valve can also be turned off by redstone input to act as a
output control of storage tanks.
I've made a mess of changes since last upload. Main big change is change
in forge file formate that merged minecraft and common folder. The other
is the complete rewrite to Forge Liquid api. So far only the pump,
boiler, and pipe are converted to the new system. The pipe will actual
not fully work with most machines since it can't drain liquids out of
machines. In future update there will be a block to do this called a
pipe pump. Other than those changes nothing much is diffrent.
Changed it so that the block being clicked on now supplies the custom
readout message. This way each block can have its own message instead of
a general one for the TE type.
Boiler is now its own block, and will later have upgraded version
FireBox is now its own Block, and will have a liquid burning version,
bio fuel version, and a lava buffer that can transfer more heat from
lava without damaging the boiler
I also made changes for the IReadOut interface from basic pipes
long story short steam power is undergoing rewriting and basicPipies is
now basic Utilties which has its own repo again. Some minor changes are
removal of GUIs from steam piston and boiler. Boiler will become a heat
unit of some kind later so a GUI no longer makes since. Same for the
steam piston which you can get its force output using the presure guage.
Also electric gen is now moved to basic Utilities in case steam power is
not installed to use it.
most of this is just continued rewrites in an attempt to better the mod.
Some of the basic changes are:
removed HeatProducer / merged it with IProducer
removed Liquid from some of the interfaces name
renamed IMehcanical to IForce
moved around files
add generator from steampower to where it should be
and finally normal ctrl+shift+f formating
got around to moving this so Calc could help me with the clean up of it.
So far i havn't changed much but will soon. The main focus for the next
week on the mod will be just cleanup and bug fixing. I will also be
moving the motor from steam power to here. The mod has alos been renamed
since now it contains more than just pipes.
removed IC2, computer Craft and railcraft api. Wasn't using them anyways
so no point keeping them especial when i can't have IC2 uploaded like
that anyways
Removed Steam piston gui since it had no use, if you need Force output
use the pipe guage. Also fixed a bug where pipes would output 2 per
update from every produce whether or not there it could actual produce
anything.
I baddly need to clean this mod up but for now it should be fully
updated. The recipes are not tested yet with the ore Directory changes i
made to them but i'll test shortly.
suprised how long it too someone to noticed the major bugs i fixed.
Guess i need to play my own mods more and find the bugs myself ;/.
Fixed pipes again
Fixed boiler & LiquidTank liquid sharing system
Added a way for pipes to pump to tanks up a boiler chain
Fixed Boiler GUI
Fixed most machines in general (packets stopped being sent)
pre implemented use of Liquid tank in place of boiler's internal storage
tanks
storage tanks act as pumps on sides, Top for gases, bottom for liquids.
Added crafting for lava, water,steam.fuel,and oil tanks.
Made 4 iron the default tank receipe, and 4 bronze optional will change
out later.
Still have bugs to work out like liquid trading and glass face not
rendering on the model; However, the render looks nice and the corner
look better than the old ones.
its a WIP but in the process of setting it all up i worked on the normal
boiler and improved the MHelper file which contains the liqiud trade
method, corner finder method and surrounding TileEntity finder.
fixed another bug with the pipe, pipe would not lose pressure after
being disconncted from source. Also cleaned up a bit on some of the code
and added code to only send packets if the machine updated. This will
reduce a lot of paceket load being sent to the client.
Well since i'm using UE lite i think it outputs power, I have more
testing to too. Right now my only indication is the generator will place
a stone block above it when its genrate is above 0.
Took some time but i got it too work, the steam piston will generate
mechanical energy and then traslate that energy to a rod which will
translate it to the next and so on. Now too just create the generator
and i'm done.
Mostly just a code upload to move work to my other pc but i did get
steam piston's animation done. I also cleaned up a little moved EU
vampire to dev blocks, removed old steam piston, and corrected GUI.
Current bugs: Mech energy will not trade, Steam piston GUI willl not
display Newtons out putted, and slight lag being cause by packets.
Simi unstable due to how i've been messing around with mechanical
systems, but it looks good enough. It also seems to work fine on UE8.7,
and i added dependence checks to remove some error on load. On top of
that i update version number for both mods to be the same. Will help
track versions better
since i want the steam piston to output a rotational energy rather than
strait electric i started coding the mechanical rod. It has a max range
of 10 blocks, and only transfers energy in one direction. Later i'll add
a gear box to allow for several directions, as well as speed control.
Also right now the system is design to use rpm as power units but later
i'm change it to correct units, since rpm just describes speed and not
power.
should have this done this weekend and it will be a basic valve that
denies connection of pipes when off. Version one will be by hand and
version two by redstone. Both are start in the same block.
fixed textures for some pipe types and pump will pump any liquid with a
block id linked too it. Which is oil,lava,water only ;/
also i moved some package around was getting hard to sort sh** out
Boiler originaly uses this to gain heat to boil water. Due to lack of
use i moved it too direct heat gain from fireBox. Now i've add the heat
api to basic pipes and changes boiler to also accept lava souce as a
heat provider at 10*random*tickRate min 0 max 100 heat gain.
This is a major change in how everything is stored and is only first
step. This change water being ID I to Liquid.WATER. Makes it so much
easier to understand what a liquid is and carries extra info like the
block that is linked to the liquid. The Name of the liquid.
I also started on a way to stored beams by create a class like Clac's
Vectors. It stores a beam as a new beam with intensity, canProduce
light,and direction moving.
