More realistic antimatter #98

Open Oct0bass opened 4 years ago

Describe the the feature you'd like Currently, the antimatter in mekanism can be transported and stored just like any normal liquid/gas/chemical. This is very far from IRL antimatter, which would anhilate normal containers and must be contained/transported using very advanced technology. While I realize that mekanism (and minecraft in general) is not and should not be anything like real life, I think that having a little more challenge to storing and transporting antimatter would benefit mekansim. Here are two ways I think that could happen:

Describe alternatives you've considered The current handling of antimatter in mekanism is not indicative of it's super-powerful, endgame status.

Additional context N/A

That would be cool. Maybe use a different machine than the crystalizer that would turn anti matter into vials instead? The storage multiblock sounds awesome too, all the multiblocks in this mod are awesome so I definitely wouldn't be against a new one. Maybe make it require energy to keep up a magnetic field to keep the antimatter contained. So many possibilities, so much awesome.

I like the idea of requiring power, however it would likely only be feasible for storage, as having a transmitter that requires connections from another type of transmitter would probably be very complicated to implement.

Actually it seems work is in progress to do something similar to that. If you check the v10 ideas under projects and in progress, Which includes "Pressurized tubes have different upgrades such as: .... low level electrical current flowing through them".
