Circuits Ideas

[bioastroiner]

Circuits in GT6 are one of my least favourite thing generaly terrible process and not rewarding at all, the least interesting part of gregtech so far. The main issues i have with them: 1.Rather Bazzar way to get them 2.kinda gated far late in the game with a lot of grind behind it 3.The Simplest Circuit in essense costs the same as the latest tier circuit making the circuit line a very wierd line to look at, it make late game implemntation a very difficault task to do as different tiers of circuits are essensially in the same difficaulty. consiedering circuits basically gate the electric age, it really makes gameplay not enjoyable in some part.

There might a few solutions for this, easier citcuits for tier 1, or a lower tier one (like ULV tier in gt5), not gating circuits behind plastic and huge grind of stainless steel. I also refer to the gt6x documentation as a few points there especially the components can make the circuit production much more interesting including the semi inductor industry.

Semiconductor industry

Add more realistic steps for higher tier circuits Epoxy for high-tier PCBs instead of plastic (see GT6U) Doping using GaP, GaAs, InGaN Ways to extract additional Ga from Bauxite Use of Ru for electroplating high tier circuit plates Photolithography to produce ICs or Photovoltaic Cells from silicon wafers add silicon dioxide, apply photoresist to make raw wafer put in laser engraver with photomask Etch using small amounts of hydrofluoric acid, produces hexafluorosilicic acid to recycle back into Si/F/H2O Use ICs to craft high tier circuit parts Solder circuit boards into circuits using soldering iron, manually or using autocrafting table (special tool + robot tool head which needs to be refilled using soldering alloy). Don’t use bath. Solar panels crafting using Ph.V cells Copper indium gallium selenide wafers for advanced solar panels

I also want to add my own suggestion for making a new lower tier circuits and making first tier circuit more available early on. my point is generaly a different route for lower tier circuits and for higher tier circuits a more difficault route to bring some balance. in addition i would also suggest more tiers beyond tier 6 circuits in the future.

I have added more of my ideas to the Document.

You can check out https://github.com/TerraFirmaRescue/MoegAddon it is a supp mod we made for TFR+GT6U for the semiconductor industry. Btw GT6U has a multiblock Aligner (much like the UEV stuff by ASML in real world) you can checkout

Pretty happy to see people getting ideas from tfr and put it in actual mod instead of just minetweaker (as we did before).

@yuesha-yc Would you have problems with me using any of your code and/or textures in my mod? For most things I write my own but a few things will be similar. I did make my mod LGPL which might be an issue legally.

I believe I used LGPL too? (Just follow Gt6 license). For assets they are CC0 so no problems. Though would appreciate attribution to GT6U team since those assets are created by a lot of team members not only me.

Good point, I should follow the GT6 license as well if I didn't yet.

Of course I will mention you guys if I borrow something. Should I just refer to you as TeamMoeg or as something else?

[yuesha-yc]

Sure.
