power systems

[bcwadsworth]

Right now we have several power systems all ready implemented, with many more coming down the pipeline: in order for all of us to work together, I wish to put out the following list of systems that will be implemented within the final version:

Magic: packets with 32 different mana types (BCWADSWORTH)
Electric: RF? (External API) (Are we making our own here?) (XELITEXERISH)
Heat: Joules at a Temperature (Binomial Packet)
Rotational: Speed at a Force (Binomial Packet)
Pressure: Volume at a Pressure (Binomial Packet)
Plasma (High End Electric): RF in a volume at a pressure (Trinomial Packet)

In order to make it easier for everyone, I think we ought to finalize this list and finalize these systems so that everyone may use them for conversion.

That's a good idea, I can take care and finish the electrical one, I saw on Google drive Deli didn't want to use Rf, so I was just making my own?

[bcwadsworth]

If he doesnt want to use RF, thats fine, I just feel that in the current
modding world we ought to try to integrate as much as possible. Does rf
meet our needs?

[realshaunoneill]

Rf does meet our needs yes, but it would save a good bit of time, as for our own, I can make our own too it just takes a little longer.

If we choose to make our own we could make power converters? There was a mod a while back that did it, with all the major power networks.

[bcwadsworth]

We could, but overrall it seems like there is no point. People kind of
expect rf integration right now.
​

​Why dont we write to RF right now and we can write it as a separate system
later​ if we want.

I am going to start work on Heat - heat will be measured in Joules, because
of how Specific heat works, as well as not have any transmission system
other than being right next to it.

[bcwadsworth]

Unless of course you already have a working system
I havent checked

[realshaunoneill]

I do have a working system (well it's just getting a small bit re-done) but I suppose I could easily create a converter?

[bcwadsworth]

Dude, do whatever you think is best. That part is kindof yours

[realshaunoneill]

Okay grand :) il sort something out haha
