I don't think we need another kickstarter thread, so I'll post here.

Take a look at this http://www.kickstart...863/sui-generis

What is nice - pretty cool physics engine and overall nice thoughts put into work.

What is not so nice - I just can't believe they can pull that off with just $150,000.

Happy with this on everything EXCEPT, the concept of making it metal age exclusive. If historically it was able to be done WITHOUT heavy tools, the mod should highlight that fact.

with that said, I know nothing about this system, so my argument can be ignored if it was a must to have significant tools to build this irl.

I still can. They aren't regenerating or anything. *wink-wink*

I don't think a man who can punch cows to death can pass out from a mere glass of toxic beer.

That's the only kind of rap music I can tolerate.

Blood red.

Nope, the path for lightning forming from the clouds downwards, but lightning itself strucks upwards. For lightnings touching the ground that is. And there's also instances when lightning path is also formed upwards - usually from lightning rods of tall buildings.

And as I said, I know how minecraft lightnings works - on random loaded block with skylight of 15 with lightning-like animation. What you suggest is to change randomness factor to take in account block height.

Dark green. I don't care if I will post less, it means that there will be less useless posts from me.

As it continues to descend, the stepped leader may branch into a number of paths.^[32] The progression of stepped leaders takes a comparatively long time (hundreds of milliseconds) to approach the ground. This initial phase involves a relatively small electric current (tens or hundreds of amperes), and the leader is almost invisible when compared with the subsequent lightning channel.

When a stepped leader approaches the ground, the presence of opposite charges on the ground enhances the strength of the electric field. The electric field is strongest on ground-connected objects whose tops are closest to the base of the thundercloud, such as trees and tall buildings. If the electric field is strong enough, a conductive discharge (called a positive streamer) can develop from these points. This was first theorized by Heinz Kasemir.^[33][34]

As the field increases, the positive streamer may evolve into a hotter, higher current leader which eventually connects to the descending stepped leader from the cloud. It is also possible for many streamers to develop from many different objects simultaneously, with only one connecting with the leader and forming the main discharge path. Photographs have been taken on which non-connected streamers are clearly visible.^[35]

Once a channel of ionized air is established between the cloud and ground this becomes a path of least restistance and allows for a much greater current to propagate from the Earth back up the leader into the cloud. This is the return stroke and it is the most luminous and noticeable part of the lightning discharge.

Leaves are bugging me. Don't know, why, exactly.

Other than that, all of this looks nice. I will watch your progress, good sir.

It seems like water can hold light , dig a hole and put water inside, close the hole and if you are inside you will see light (from the water) for some time (or until you remove the water) and then it disappears and it will be dark again.

Or when traveling by boat, water around suddenly becomes brighter (catching light).

I have no idea why or what, but it looks bugged.

But you're pessimist.

What about the broken mountains lightning and broken water lighting..

I wouldn't mind broken chiseled stone lighting

But I didn't see any problems with water lighting, what are you talking about?

So, I will need to kill someone to make a workbench.

I normally don't kill animals I didn't raise. Except for sheep. They are annoying.

But lightning strikes up from the ground, not down from the sky.

- It won't ignore armour, it will use it as a conductor and heat it. You can overheat, but you won't actually die from that. Now, if you DON'T wear armour, lightning will travel through your blood as it has higher ion capacity, iirc, and burned blood vessels are of much higher chance to end you.

- It won't do any AOE besides hot air wave and sound blast.

- Gamemode 2 is Adventure, you're looking for gamemode 1.

- Lightning won't crack stone or bricks or cause gravity affected block to fall; it may light something on fire or turn sand to glass, but only blocks it came through.

I know how minecraft lightning works

I need to escape from this topic before transcengopher's virgins reach me. Bye!!!

I have a friend who the only thing she can say in a russian accent is "Butterfly". It sounds absolutely HILARIOUS!

Yes. No particular style, it grows how it grows, I only shave sometimes when I feel like it. My girlfriend doesn't like it when I shave, she likes my beard and moustache.

but if you have a room like this:

where H is a heat source. Would it go around the curve?

Edit:

Well, to think about it, infrared will heat the wall, and it will become secondary heat source.

BTW, modding lighting is just TOO MUCH PAIN!

He wants glass to have tints based on the parent sand

As for sand, no big deal, but with dirt and especially gravel this might be a neat idea. Or not? I mean, less block id's.

coloured clay isn't going to be in TFC.

CATS

Edit:

Well, not only them. Dunk, can you please "throw another bone" in this thread?
