# MicuPack v0.4
|
|
|
|
**Minetest modpack by (real)micu, tested with Minetest 0.4.17.1 and Minetest Game**
|
|
|
|
This modpack contains:
|
|
|
|
* **Modern Tables** (moderntables)
|
|
|
|
Simple wooden tables. *To be expanded.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Miner Tools** (minertools)
|
|
|
|
Electronic gadgets for professional miners. Inspired by mod called 'Mineral Detector'.
|
|
|
|
This mod provides following portable devices:
|
|
|
|
- geothermometer - shows temperature variations of solid blocks (water and lava
|
|
affect block relative temperature - water cools it down while lava warms it up);
|
|
useful for underground mining to search - or avoid - flooded caverns or lava pools
|
|
- mineral scanner - shows ore count in area around player, selectable range (designed
|
|
to be a handheld, improved version of Mineral Detector mentioned earlier)
|
|
- mineral finder - short range directional scanner to find nearby deposits of selected
|
|
mineral; very picky, especially at angles, but driven by simple logic
|
|
- all-in-one versions of above devices, each one with improved characteristics
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **SaferLua Programming Tools** (slprogtools)
|
|
|
|
Devices for interacting with SaferLua Controller from TechPack mod:
|
|
|
|
- Memory Copier - portable dongle to transfer code between SL Controllers in much simpler
|
|
and faster way than copying it with text books
|
|
- Memory Programmer - improved Memory Copier, with read/write protection to prevent
|
|
accidental memory loss and code injection functionality (works like original Programmer
|
|
but for SL Controllers); it allows to replace special marker in init() section
|
|
code with array containing collected Tubelib numbers, making redeployments of SL
|
|
Controllers much easier (for example for mobile mining with Quarries and Pushers)
|
|
|
|
*Note: due to node's formspec implementation, only inactive tabs can be populated - before
|
|
code upload/rewrite please change active tab on SaferLua Controller to 'outp' or 'help'.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Furnace Monitor** (furnacemonitor)
|
|
|
|
This simple device allows to monitor Minetest Game standard furnace with Tubelib/Smartline
|
|
devices that are capable of reading Tubelib node state (like SaferLua Controllers etc).
|
|
It gets standard 4-digit Tubelib ID number and can be referred like any other compatible
|
|
read-only node.
|
|
Monitor checks attached node only when status is requested so it does not consume CPU
|
|
resources when idle (no timers).
|
|
|
|
Placement: place on any side of a furnace, make sure back plate of device has contact with
|
|
monitored node. In case of wrong orientation use screwdriver.
|
|
|
|
Status:
|
|
|
|
- "fault" - monitor is not placed on a furnace
|
|
- "stopped" - furnace is not smelting/cooking
|
|
- "running" - furnace is smelting/cooking items
|
|
- "standby" - furnace is burning fuel but there are no items loaded
|
|
|
|
Punch node to see current status.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Biogas Machines** (biogasmachines)
|
|
|
|
Expands Tubelib (and TechPack) with various machines that use Biogas either as a product
|
|
or a power source. *Work in progress!*
|
|
|
|
Available:
|
|
|
|
- **Water Freezer**
|
|
|
|
Freezing machine that converts water to ice using Biogas as coolant. Water can be supplied
|
|
in buckets or (if pipeworks mod is installed) through pipes. One water bucket is converted
|
|
to one ice cube, in case of pipe network there is no need for any vessels however fresh
|
|
water should be provided via pipelines. Empty buckets are returned as secondary products
|
|
so Freezer can be easily paired with Liquid Sampler and other Tubelib machinery.
|
|
Punch node to see status.
|
|
|
|
- **Gasifier**
|
|
|
|
Machine to extract Biogas from compressed dry organic material, such as fossil fuels.
|
|
Designed primarily to retrieve gas from Coal blocks (not lumps!), it allows to convert
|
|
Straw blocks to Biogas units as well. Equipped with 'recipe hint bar' that shows processing
|
|
ingredients, products and duration. Primary goal is to convert piles of Coal blocks to another
|
|
burnable agent, better suited for use in modern machinery.
|
|
More recipes can be added via simple API function (see source file).
|
|
As usual, punch node for quick status check.
|
|
|
|
- **Biogas Furnace**
|
|
|
|
Biogas-fuelled, Tubelib-compatible version of standard furnace. All cooking recipes apply.
|
|
Notable differences are:
|
|
- fuel is used only when cooking (Biogas is not wasted)
|
|
- both input and output trays are larger allowing more items to be stored and processed
|
|
- items that leave containers after cooking (for example farming:salt) do not block cooking
|
|
tray; such vessels (buckets etc) are routed to output tray as well
|
|
- uncookable items stay in input tray and are not routed anywhere
|
|
- device tries its best to fill output tray and can choose input items to effectively utilize
|
|
remaining space there
|
|
Punch node for quick status check.
|
|
|
|
Planned:
|
|
|
|
- High Temperature Compressor - advanced machine to convert (albeit slowly) stone (or compressed
|
|
gravel) to obsidian and coal block to diamonds; it will require water supplied either via buckets,
|
|
through pipes (like freezer) or ice cubes(!) and a decent amount of Biogas
|
|
- Metal Recycler - decomposing device to retrieve metal ingots and Mese shards from all items
|
|
and nodes that were crafted from these resources; device will return random number of ingots
|
|
and shards - between 1 and craft quantity; Mese crystals will be converted to shards for
|
|
calculation purposes; fuelled by moderate volume of Biogas
|
|
- Portable Biogas Torch - a tool to melt down ice and produce water source from it
|
|
