@Yuuki It was going just fine until it hit the drawer

Anyone have any objections to upping the per-player loaded chunk allotment?
SaintWacko
SaintWacko
Doesn't bother me. I don't think I'm near the limit lol
Tim Post

It's currently 25 per player, across all dimensions. Thinking about raising it to 30 since we're all building pretty lag-friendly things
Unionhawk
Unionhawk
Yeah as long as the server doesn't blow up it's fine

@Unionhawk Man, I haven't seen you on at all, neighbour!

is create lag-friendly? feels like with all these moving parts, it wouldn't be
Tim Post

@Yuuki Surprisingly, yes - it's very lag friendly for all of those entities it has to keep up with.
Yuuki
Yuuki
huh

I have to admit I was worried when I first saw the mod spotlight, but it's more gentle than your average Buildcraft base.
Of course, now that I've said that, someone will find the ONE block in create that causes lots of lag and find the need to use 100 of them in a chunk or something lol

I really miss those crystal chests rendering their contents now that I'm working on automating Mekanism.
It was just so damn handy to see what was in those things from ten blocks away.
Yuuki
Yuuki
they're still there according to jei
Jochem
Jochem
they're not transparent though :(
rather, they don't render their contents

If item routers and conduits were a programming language, crystal chests would be the open source third-party debugger that sprang up because nothing shipped with the other stuff to get any insight

I was thinking earlier that a digital miner might feel kinda cheaty and now that I'm actually going through crafting it I'm totally fine with having one :D
Yuuki

if anything, the laser drill is more cheaty than the digital miner since the laser drill just straight-up creates ore
the digital miner still requires actual ore in the world to teleport into its inventory
Jochem
Jochem
yeah, the digital miner is powerful, but it's not setup-and-forget
and it's appropriately expensive to make I think, though it's not super bad once you have the right mekanism machines
Unionhawk
Unionhawk
You have to have at least a beginner mekanism setup to build one
4 or 5 different machines are needed
Jochem
Jochem
I think the enrichment chamber, infuser, the osmium compressor, and some kind of smelting
you only really need the first three, smelting and crushing can be any mod (probably even the grindstone from AE if you really want to get down to basics)
