IndustryCraft just released 6.0, so multiplayer is now an option.  Was anyone here planning on running a server?

Man, minecraft really IS just like DF.  Magma solves everything.

That made me laugh! 

Yet I agree with Naxza. My history with magma suggests that it does solve many problems but it also makes Minecraft more FUN! Magma is the only monster that eats your inventory... Listen carefully to that hiss and you can hear "nicesss ssstuffsss!"

Is that compatible with the previous version's saves?

What exactly is required to run a server, in terms of system resources/specs?

The only problem is that it doesn't generate the new ores with server generate maps. Alblaka said to generate a single player world and run around a lot, then put it into your server's world.
EDIT: The newest update fixes this.

Boy, i just read through like 200 pages of this thread and im getting stoked to play me some minecraft again. Ive got a bunch of mod threads open in tabs now; gonna see which ones i like the most, then likely ask for help since ive never installed mods before.

[PTTG??]

I'm considering running IndustrialCraft on Planehacked. Maybe. It may play a part in the new project.

Holy crap. I just now realized how much I have been skirting disaster all day. W/o knowing how high voltage lines worked, I set up one to my workshop, straight into an MFE. If I had been unlucky enough to have connected the high voltage wire to the top rather than the bottom of the high voltage transformer, my workshop would be a crater right now D:

What's with the frown? Thanks to incredible luck your amazing skills, your workshop isn't a smoldering crater, after all! 



Has anybody tried moving players horizontally with the piston mod? I've been trying to get extra horizontal distance by using 2+ pistons, but no matter what I do, I can't get both of them to reliably hit the player. I have one piston that shoots me up in the air, then two more that (theoretically) should give me decent horizontal distance. Except, roughly ~40% of the time, and for reasons/variables I have yet to be able to determine, only one of the two pistons makes contact and I get half the distance. It's just confusing, given that using two pistons for vertical distance is entirely reliable, whereas using two pistons for horizontal distance is seemingly non-deterministic.

I am here to share two mods I have discovered elsewhere on the internet...

Dwarf Fortress-esque water mechanics in minecraft, including pipes and pumps - http://www.djoslin.info/finiteliquid.php
I think it has a lot of promise right now. Currently it only adds a new type of water which behaves appropriately, but if all water and lava was replaced with this code, it introduces a lot of possibilities for new death traps and architecture.

Rivers in minecraft - http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1022&t=240568
It definitely isn't perfect yet - rivers going uphill for example. Right now it modifies your map to include rivers, rather than modifying the world gen parameters. Hopefully it will only be a matter of time for that, though.

Thexor: Try using ice?

Thexor: Try using ice?

Mmm... I saw ice used in the pinball video, but I don't think it'd be useful here. I'm working on a floating city; since walkways are boring, I felt it'd be cool if you could 'fly' between the various islands. Thus, my launcher:

Code: [Select]

<#
 <#
  #
  #
  #
  #
^##
(where angle brackets are pistons, pointed in that direction, and hashes are walls.)
The problem is those upper two pistons; half the time, only one of them connects. When you're planning to use pistons to travel between disconnected islands a good ~30m above ground, randomly having half the flight distance becomes a problem. 

[breadbocks]

It's just not going to work like that, mate. Sorry, but there's probably a bug somewhere in the code that makes it so you can't be hit by two pistons at once.

[The Scout]

Any idea why PlasmaCraft doesn't work with the latest version?

[iceball3]

Strange, I cannot find the butterfly mod anywhere... Can someone give me a hand?

Huh. Must be a SMP thing.
