[Discussion] The Future: Where FrogCraft:Rebirth will go?

[3TUSK]

Despite the incoming FrogCraft2, there are several questions that have to be answered:

• Is FrogCraft: Rebirth a stand-alone ic2 addon, or an addon of other ic2 addon?
  • GregTech 5 Unofficial: now has a barely working 1.10 branch now. I have successfully compiled it without including the ASM part. Render is broken. RAM-hungry. Havent check the recipes, while all machines are present in creative tab without crash. Console spam. Attempting fixing render. Stabilizing. Well, still, not for production.
  • Tech Reborn: is the most stable solution, also the solution currently used, but it aims to be independent from ic2, which goes against of what FCR would like to go.
  • Tech Transition: has no usable 1.10.2 version, focusing on pure ic2 addon, only published on www.mcbbs.net which may bring trouble in terms of i18n, but having constant contact on author, should be easy to solve.
• Should FrogCraft: Rebirth strictly follow chem. reaction i.r.l. as much as it can?
  • Not necessary. But, still, keep some scientific aspect and try following matter conservation.
• Should FrogCraft: Rebirth remove entertainment content (e.g. the ion cannon and tiberium)?
  • Keep for now.
• No, FrogCraft: Rebirth will only support one energy unit and it is EU from IC2.

Unfinished list.

@liach ?

看着喜感啊

[3TUSK]

一点也不

[3TUSK]

I will leave this post here.

[liach]

Why are you only a collaborator @3TUSK

[3TUSK]

I do not own the repository

[liach]

Then who does?

[3TUSK]

Organzation

[liach]

:trollface: Greatest joke ever. You are the owner of the organization aren't you?

[3TUSK]

Then none own it. There is no one called "owner" or "author", there is only "active contributor"

[3TUSK]

TechReborn is undergoing rewrite I guess?

[liach]

Yes, since 1.10.2

[3TUSK]

So my memory is not that bad.

[3TUSK]

@liach Do you have any idea of implementing ic2 e-net? It is doable but none has tried that afaik

[liach]

You mean you want to implement IC2 API? Or make another type of electric grid? If it is another type, then I would suggest you learn graph algorithms.

[3TUSK]

@liach I mean Both. Check out ic2.api.energy.IEnergyNet. It allows 3rd party to define electric grid on their own.

So yah. Both.

[liach]

I really suggest you to learn some basic graph algorithm, because it really speeds up electric grids a lot. (No stack overflows for bad clients!) I will look into this when I am home.

[3TUSK]

Fair enough - -

[3TUSK]

My intent is that, since ic2's api is relatively more stable than ic2 itself, if someone could create a open-source/free implementation of ic2's EU grid, that would help for mod migration.
