After looking at the new coal gen model i decided to change how i want
to create start up machines. The new design will require a basic steam
generator to be placed bellow a steam user. In this case there will be a
coal fired, and liquid fuel fired steam gen. Then a turbine and a piston
steam consume will be placed above the gen. They will work together to
create power though not as effective as single block version. However,
it will be cheaper to run and require less work to keep running. The
player should only have to added water to the machines every 1000
cycles.
This is just a model for the test car as most likely all the other
models will be obj models. That way i have more control over the look of
the vehicle.
Not really liking this version and may have to work on it some more. The
idea is to create a way to insert 4 batteries into the machine. Then for
these batteries to visually show on the out side of the machine with
there charging info. As well placing two machine together will need to
effect the render.
At first i was going to keep the core as a simple loader but seeing that
need for content out of my DarkMachine mod i merged the two. This will
cause a bit of extra stuff for the player to deal with. However, i did
add configs to disable the ore and ore Items from the mod.
