I’m currently doing some changes to how configuration works in Gendustry, Pressure Pipes, Advanced Generators and all future mods.

The system started as a way to specify simple crafting recipes in normal text files back when i started modding in Scala, and had a lot of ad-hoc additions since then. There were quite a few things that have bugged me about it over time so I’ve decided to do a major cleanup and refactoring pass.

Things that got changed

  • Clear distinction of what executes at what point, statements are split between Configuration and Recipe blocks. This replaces the old Delayed Statement thing.
  • Recipe characters used to be global which caused errors when characters that were used all over the place got changed by accident. The new systems has clearly defined blocks with all definitions being local to their block.
  • If statements have been normalized, also added some basic boolean operations.
  • Lots of minor inconsistencies were unified, like “->” vs “=>” in different statements, “:” vs “=” in config entries, “mb” after fluid amounts, etc.

I have also started doing some proper documentation for the format and how it’s used in my mods now that the cleanup is out of the way.

Gendustry (1.4.x) and BDLib (1.5.x) are now on Jenkins with support for the new format, and the main BACON documentation and Gendustry configuration are now online. There is even a mini-guide on adding custom bees.

Pressure Pipes and Advanced Generators will be done in the next few days.

Updated: Pressure Pipes (0.9.6.x) and Advanced Generators (0.9.3.x) with support for the new format are now on Jenkins as well, documentation will be up sometimes next week.

As i posted earlier, i’m killing off Deep Core Mining development. I have barely touched it in a long while and have way too many other things on my hands and too little time.

Today i released Advanced Generators (which contains the generators from DCM) v0.9, and DCM is now officially dead.

Download are on jenkins only of now, will add an official build soon(tm).

In other news, tonius11 (Simply Jetpacks dev) has released an unofficial update to Mistaqur’q NEI Plugins mod. So people can stop bugging me about it at least until 1.8 😛

My plans for the next days/weeks:

  • Pressure Pipes
    • Add a multiblock tank that works directly with pressure pipes.
    • Add a block that places fluids in world or voids them.
    • Add some minor features like throttling of pumps in configs and such.
    • Release 1.0
  • Advanced generators
    • Add a generator variant that consumes steam.
    • Add a something that consumes lava. Possibly to produce steam+obsidian.
    • Testing,
      • Testing,
        • Testing.
    • Release 1.0
  • Gendustry
    • Test with newly released Binnie Mods, see how bad it breaks.
  • NEI Addons
    • Test with newly released Binnie Mods, see how bad it breaks.
    • Finally fix the goddamn crafting table from TC
    • Look into adding localization

Gendustry

  • Added creative tabs
  • Updated de_DE.lang, thanks wodkashorty
  • Don’t cache biome in apiaries, should fix problems with changing biomes (eg Biome Painter from Random Things mod)
  • Fixed potential bug with hellish biome detection

Pressure Pipes

  • Added (Those are from Deep Core mining, moved to this mod):
    • Hand Pump
      • Sucks fluids from the world and tanks and places them in Canisters in your inventory
      • Also should work with other items that support IFluidContainerItem, like TE portable tanks
    • Canister
      • Holds up to 64 buckets of any fluid
      • Right click on tanks/machines to fill them
      • Can be filled and drained in machines that support IFluidContainerItem
  • Fixed an issue with NEI
  • Fixed dupe/crash when other mods tried pushing fluids client-side
  • API refactored see here for details

BDLib Update is required for the versions above

  • Added Creative tabs helper
  • Added DataSlotOption

Here’s a short summary of what was and will be happening in the near future with my mods:

  • Deep Core Mining  – This mod has been in flux for a long while and to be honest i don’t think i’ll get back into it anytime soon. I’ll be moving the stable features into other/new mods and discontinuing development for now. All the code is open source and on github and so if anyone wants to take over and do something with it you have my blessings.
  • <New unnamed mod> – Will have a stable version of the multiblock generators from DCM with some expanded functionality. More details in a few days.
  • Pressure Pipes – I’ve moved the Hand Pump and Canister from DCM into this mod, currently planning to add a few more features and i’ll call it 1.0
  • Gendustry – Is pretty stable as it is. Still marked as beta because there is no “official” forestry release for 1.7.10, i’m keeping an eye on what’s going on with forestry right now, the license change and everything.
  • NEI Addons – Also waiting on more mods to have official releases before i call it stable. There is some pressure from people to take over functionality of NEI Plugins because Mistaqur is MIA again, which i’ll probably get to once everything else is done (unless he is back by then).
