      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

New to the mod

4 posts in this topic

Hello, eccentrus here.

 

I'm new to the mod and I find it awesome since you can't just jump into industrial age like the vanilla minecraft, I've been playing in Rhodance's FFA if anyone recognized me from there, and I am delighted that I have to gather round with my friends to achieve a very rudimentary form of civilization, I can't wait to see how this mod will unfold further and its own sub-mods.

 

I'm a Medical Student IRL with only a year left before I'm bestowed my MD, so if anyone want to consult on health-related mods (I hear that body temp is coming, wow how that excites me), just give me a PM, I'll be glad to help.

I reckon a good addition to the mod could be medicine, blending up the right herbs into pastes or rubbing the right leaves on you, people have been doing that for a long long time.

 

I reckon you'll know a bit about that.

eccentrus is going for a MD, which means (s)he is going to be a specialist at diagnosing medical problems and administering modern pharmaceuticals

 

Modern pharmaceuticals are predominately synthesized at chemical companies using organic synthesis techniques using petrochemicals as feedstocks

 

What furiousuk described is herbalism

well Palisight is more accurate but furiousuk is not absolutely wrong either, I do know little about herbs and stuffs that historically were used to treat wounds and diseases which were ultimately a rudimentary form of how the modern medicine works, but yes, my knowledge on those particular matter is rather limited since we Meds studies only the interaction between the active substances and the body, not the whole herb in and of itself.

 

What would be more applicable from my own arsenal of knowledge would be how the body will react to the environment, including the body temp which will be applied in the near future. For example I would be more useful on modelling how diseases or trauma would emerge and its consequences. Although researching what herbs can fight fevers or infections would not be too far out of my scope of knowledge though.
