I will try to release videos on that as soon as possible :) I've been really busy with getting bugs and the really complex features. :) But I'll try to get the video in today.
This is the most ridiculously cool plugin I've come across in some time...
Really want to know how to use the miner and the smelter!
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
Okay I got it xD Sorry. And I have been trying to keep it just Minecraft with no custom items :)
@ChrisixStudios
Well, "redstone", as it were. :)
(As opposed to creating your own power system, like IndustrialCraft.)
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
What systems in Minecraft do you mean?
@ChrisixStudios
Weird, i thought i already commented... but it seems to have vanished.
So yeah, this stuff looks highly promising and i like where it goes. You can totally hit me up per PM here as necessary. :)
(One item per redstone on/off... that's pretty clever. Also directly pipes into already existing systems in Minecraft, which is a double bonus.)
No,I Dislike No-Command Plugins.At Least Config through Commands is gd.I Use a server hosting
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
I will be adding something that will help spilling of items which is called the Lapis Splitter and I also will have it will drop the items if it cannot hold anything (The dropping will be in v0.3p2).
And I will be adding the fine tuning by just not putting in a subId (Also in v0.3p2).
I will also be adding the support of Multiple output chests on one worker.
And instead of having a set time limit (or a configured time limit) why not do it on the red stone powering the block? Like every time it goes from off to on it sends one item through. So you would have to build the red stone looping system.
I will think about a factory being able to cost more but that was suppose to be the simplest thing you can make compared to everything else that is being added. I will start to PM you on here or on your forum user(which ever your one more) so we can discus this more :) I really like your ideas you have and this could make CraftFactory a really fun and useful plugin. And the fun part of it is the more I add to this the more creative people can be with there factories and such :) Again thanks for all your great ideas :)
@joeuguce99
I already have been thinking of a way to involve animals that you can get materials from into this so i'm glad that what I'm thinking is what you and other people want :) However I do not under stand what you mean by breaking blocks with dispensers or how spawning entities could be useful or what materials you would need that would cost for that.
Placing and breaking blocks with dispensers, seeing the drops through the tubes, killing/hurting/milking/shearing animals, and spawning entities are all things I look forward to.
@Di01
Like as you mine them or collect them in your inventory it automatically put that in a chest?
Hi Can you make that chest autocollect items? And sorry for my bad english :)
@ChrisixStudios
Hm, in that case i'd suggest using a lapis block (with a "SPLIT" sign on top of it, maybe) or somesuch as "chest designation". Ie attach one of those blocks to a glass pipe, followed by a chest to tell the pipe that this is the first valid output and it should put everything in here instead. If that chest is full it then continues as normal and puts stuff in the regular output instead (unless another Lapis block is down the line). This differs from a regular gold/iron pipe split in that it automatically stops if the output chest is full. (And it only allows "all" for a material definition. No fine filtering.)
This could then also be branched out:
Iron block, move ALL -> several Gold blocks along the pipeline to split off materials, with their own Lapis subsystem, to prevent overspillage -> a big chest at the end to catch anything that didn't get split off.
Speaking of overspillage... how about having the items just drop on the ground at the chest when it's full and can't receive anymore items? (Currently the crafting bench just destroys the raw materials)
Also, in regards to transfer speed... i'd prefer if it were to move only one item at a time (say, one per second), not entire stacks or the entire chest content instantly. You could then upgrade to TWO (or more) blocks of iron/gold behind each other to make it move entire stacks (but never the entire chests contents). I know you're looking into how to make a delay, so i thought i'd pipe in some more on that angle. :)
Also, now that i think about how convenient these factories are... is there a way to make them somehow "cost" the user more? IE, deduct a certain amount of materials from their inventory when they create a factory sign. I know that pipes can get costly by themselves with iron and gold blocks, which is fine, but a auto-crafter is just a bench and two chests, which cost nothing in the grand scheme of things. To make it a tad fairer you could then have the materials pop back out when a factory sign is broken, since otherwise the stuff would just be destroyed every time you misplaced the sign or wanted to change its contents.
@faxionsurvival
You can do the first thing you talked about by just linking a Gold pipe to the Collector pipe (making collector's output gold's input) and I will see what I can do with multiple output chests because that would make it easier just to have like a room of chests collecting from one place. :)
Is there any way to implement multiple chests on a pipeline? For instance, input chest in mineshaft that moves all items to a collector chest upstairs, then pipelines leeching off of the chest that are item specific with gold block to sort the items and store in the appropriate chest. If you could make that happen, and porribly multiple chests, so when you overfill, the extras spill over into the next empty chest. Just a few ideas that would make me absolutely love this plugin, It is a good start now, We have it in testing on my server and those are the 2 things I noticed.
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
The new preview is out and it has a lot of the stuff you suggested. :)
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
Well I could stop the process once the output chest is full.
@ChrisixStudios
Ah, interesting.
(What is your plan on dealing with item spillage for crafting? Right now anything extra is destroyed when the target chest is full.)
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
I did find the problem. The double chest was the problem, I will fix that right now :)
@BEQOsNtDi6xRDGzqIAT7
I am not sure if that is possible with Bukkit because that's more with graphic stuff which is client side. And I did mention in the warning on the version update that that folder is still generating because I missed that one line of code that does that and replace it.
For some reason when I do the same set up it doesn't work. I will look into it and get back to you :)
