Bed Rock Pickaxe needed for Extra Utilities #241

Closed Dream-Master closed 9 years ago

Dream-Master commented 9 years ago

@Namikon We need a Pickaxe witch can mining Bed Rock above level 1 because i want a way to get Bedrockium from Extra Utilities. This Pickaxe have to come over Manyullyn level. It have to mine the bedrock very slow. Btw now are Bedrock Tools in Tinkers available via Extra Utilities.

A pickaxe would be very difficult to do, and it might even impossible to prevent bypassing the pickaxe. Bedrock has the flag "unbreakable", so no mining tool will work, no matter how good you'd make it. It just has infinite durability, so to speak. I would have to replace the bedrock block with something different once someone starts to mine it, maybe a block with a crazy hight amount of hardness, but then you could just switch back to, for examle, Vajra, or the IC2 mining laser, and bypass the mining process. The only thing I could imagine is to create a machine which runs of EU, and removes the bedrock block in front of it after consuming X EU for Y EU/t. Basically, imitating the bedrock breaker from Rot.Craft

Dream-Master commented 9 years ago

Yes a machine using Eu like and brakes Bedrock Blocks like the rotary Craft bedrock Breaker would great too.

Namikon commented 9 years ago

Ok, but this will take some time, as I have to dig into TileEntities and GT's EU power system. To keep it clean, I'd probably add it to a new mod. Guess I'll need a lot of classes for that..

Is there a easier way to get Bedrock ?

Drobac commented 9 years ago

well you could just enable the normal bedrock ingot recipe

Dream-Master commented 9 years ago

Yes but bedrock I think is better. Why compressed stone are be bedrock?

Drobac commented 9 years ago

Well dont have to use the exact recipe, tweak it a bit. Its an easier solution then coding a new mod just to implement it

Dream-Master commented 9 years ago

But get Bedrock as a new material would be very interesting

Drobac commented 9 years ago

What would you use it as except in recipes for drums and tools?

Dream-Master commented 9 years ago

Drums and tools and maybe more if i can mine it.

Namikon commented 9 years ago

It is probably better to just use rare materials that we already have, or re-enable the vanilla bedrockium recipe. To be honest, you need 43 million cobblestone to get 9 ingots of bedrockium, and as there is actually no way to get unlimited-free-cobblestone without having a ton of transfer nodes with 64 speed and a world interaction upgrade (just try to get the ressources for that). The rock breaker requires power to run, and one ingot of bedrockium would be 2388 Million EU. I don't see any requirement to do new machines to break bedrock blocks

Ok i added back some other Recipes.
