Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
It was never meant to be tidal, and it still works fine for low-head situations like a horizontal channel running past it with a water source a few meters away. It doesn't count water nodes, it just takes advantage of what the engine does to make water flow normally, and adds up the param2 values of the few water nodes horizontally-adjacent to the turbine.
All it takes to get 100% output is to place a water source directly on top of the turbine and let it flow downward (I should add a check to prevent that, actually).
The dam on my Survival server (30001) has a whole bunch of them stacked up inside it, with water pouring over them courtesy of a big artificial lake that was built a few years before flowing water became necessary, with a bunch of holes cut in the inner wall of the dam to let the water through.

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
I've revised my LV Generator Setup including both the Hydro and Geothermal generators. It's a little hard to explain and using ASCII art can only give a cross-section.
I encased the whole thing in granite. That's mostly for aesthetic value, but it helps remind me not to flood my basement with lava when building below the generator :)
The following screenshot was taken on my own single player server. At this point, I've already moved on to MV power, but I haven't built a CNC machine yet. So, it's just there for looks.
The green brick floor and dark green glass ceiling are completely unrelated, but they're both from the Coloured Blocks mod. I was going for an earthy theme.
I'll attach the WorldEdit file I created so that I don't have to rebuild this every time I rebuild my server. This contains the switching station, battery box, and the entire granite section. Overall, it's a 5x5x7 region.
- I have water sources sitting next to the generator on two opposite corners.
- The holes on the sides adjacent to the generator go two nodes deep so the water flows into these holes from the sources.
- Adjacent to one of the flowing water holes is a Geothermal generator and on the other side of the Geothermal generator is another 2-node-deep hole for the lava.
- I put a single Lava source in the hole on top, so it flows down into the hole below it.

Soon, I will post a huge long line of screenshots of stuff my friend and I did on a survival server with Technic. It's pretty great :D

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
Hey, I'm having an issue with Technic. For some reason everytime I enable Technic and Pipeworks on a world with the quartz and home decor mod, the quartz and home decor mods don't work. They become unknown nodes. These two mods seem to be the only ones affected by Technic and Pipeworks. What is happening?

Hi I wanted this mod so I could test a nuclear meltdown on my singleplayer so could someone please tell me what to do since I heard it had problems so please help me out how to do it on MOBILE
In order, LaserJet, RubyJet, and xYOSIYAx are my usernames with my currently used one is xYOSIYAx (because I had to have the same username everywhere). You may call me xY or my username

Nuclear reactor with a cable coming up from below. Surround that with 3x3x3 water source, 5x5x5 lead blocks, 7x7x7 blast-resistant concrete, then 9x9x9 regular concrete. Cross-section through the center:
Where C = concrete, B = blast-resistant concrete, L = lead block, W = water source, O = the reactor core, and "|" is the cable.
Code: Select all

remember the reactor accident of cernobyl.
there should be a simulated accident with a nuclear clouds and a pollution around the reactor buildiing.
Or is that to difficult to release, but this is not the right thread for this. i know sorry about this words.

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
Minister, I would have said something but I don't actually know what's wrong, unless there's a misnamed mod?

It's all right. I actually fixed the problem somehow. I guess it was a misnamed mod.

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
The entire process for enriching uranium and building the nuclear reactor is very well documented: https://github.com/minetest-mods/techni ... -generatorABJ wrote:Nuclear reactor = HUGE complex building not documented last time I checked. (Correct me if is)
I've built it a few times on singleplayer servers. I almost caused a meltdown once by digging a block that I shouldn't have. If you go through all the trouble to build the thing, it's pretty easy to avoid causing a meltdown.
If you want to see a meltdown without causing it yourself, there's a video on YouTube.
Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
every time i try to enable the Technic Mod i get a strange error message. Can anyone help me out with this? Please and thank you. I am posting a pic of the error with this.

You need to rename the technic folder to just "technic" and not "technic-master".

Yes, but as you can see in his screenshot, data8e uses 0.4.13.Linuxdirk wrote:Wasn't it solvable by providing the correct name in mod.conf?Nore wrote:You need to rename the technic folder to just "technic" and not "technic-master".

@data8e: You should update you minetest version to 0.4.16.

Darn! I wish I'd known about the Lead Blocks. I picked up a recipe that used Stainless Steel Blocks, which took ages to gather the ores and create.VanessaE wrote:Nuclear reactor with a cable coming up from below.

Re: [Mod] Technic [0.4.16-dev] [technic]
Oh and I forgot to mention, the checks are done such that you're allowed to be missing exactly two nodes from each layer. Where the missing nodes are taken from doesn't actually matter, but of course that's what allows you to dig the usual vertical 1x1 holes in from the bottom (to place the HV cables) and the top (refuel/maintenance access). :-)

I have crashed twice while placing a circuit with just an HV cable, HV Battery Box, and Switching Station. All items were connected.
Without the Battery Box. It seems to run fine though.

I believe I have downloaded Pipeworks in mid to late 2016, the latest version of that time.
EDIT: Works now, thank you very much.
