Rotarycraft Cold Reservoirs freeze Streams mod water into vanilla ice instead of Streams ice #787

Open Barhandar opened 8 years ago

Barhandar commented 8 years ago

This causes the streams, which normally have a current, to lose it once ice thaws. Specifically Gelid Cryotheum was used to make reservoir cold.

Also, water and fluids of its temperature (300K degrees) insta-melt ice around the Reservoir.

TomeWyrm commented 8 years ago

Those behaviors are intentional. Though the incorrect ice is likely a mod interaction bug or oversight.

Streams has ice?

Builderb0y commented 8 years ago

Yes, 17 different block IDs for them, all with 16 metadatas; just like its custom water blocks. ID stores the direction the water is flowing, and metadata stores how full the block is. Shouldn't be hard to map each custom water block to a custom ice block, preserving the metadata.

It is going to be an enormous pain, actually...

Barhandar commented 8 years ago

Given Streams is written in Scala and not Java, yeah, sounds like a pain. If anything, this seems to be the code in it that handles "natural" freezing.

ReikaKalseki commented 8 years ago

...I cannot even invoke that, as it would fail in non-cold or sealed areas...

Barhandar commented 8 years ago

But you can poke at setBlockAt(xyz, FixedFlowBlock(Material.ice, dx, dz)) since it's the function that places "proper" ice.

ReikaKalseki commented 8 years ago

I suppose, yes. Still, adding reflective invocation - which even the block comparison will need - is going to add overhead, both in terms of code mess and computation.

Turmfalke2 commented 8 years ago

Just spend a hour trying to figure out why my ice was constantly melting. What is the reason for reservoirs to instantly melt nearby ice the moment you start to fill them? I am by no means an expert with vanilla mechanics, so connecting the proximity of a filled reservoir with the ice melting took a while.

ReikaKalseki commented 8 years ago

They apply their temperature, which is almost always above zero.

Turmfalke2 commented 8 years ago

So I can use water to cool my crystallizer, but if I put it in a reservoir it is suddenly to hot?

ReikaKalseki commented 8 years ago

You can cool a reservoir a few degrees, but not below zero. You do know that water freezes at zero, yes?

Turmfalke2 commented 8 years ago

I am pretty sure in rotarycraft it takes -3 to freeze, but that is not the point. The temperature model is pretty simplistic, because with liquid water is always above zero, then why can I cool the lower the temperature of the freezer from -10 to like -25 by adding water?

TomeWyrm commented 8 years ago

You do know how a compressor works, right? The water is acting as a heat sink and radiator. The heat from the material getting chilled is transfered to the water, which then radiates it to the environment
