Off Topic / Ice Drumming

I find it pretty cool that the ice is so clear and pure, but maybe that's just me because I'm from Southern California, and wouldn't know any better.
Also interesting that the ice can make such a pure sound.

Suggestions & Requests / More Build Layers
« on: December 02, 2013, 01:54:48 PM »
I've noticed that we have two kinds of brick layers:
The biggest problem I have with only two brick layers is that the ModTer bricks do not work with any kind of Water Bricks, because they both belong to the Zone-Type group.
Since ModTer is its own mod, even its own identity in the game, I propose the following:
Even though it may sound like a technical concept, could it be possible to allow mod creators to define custom brick groups in the .blb?
Discuss your opinions below.
- Normal Bricks
- Zone-Type Bricks

Drama / john79ep - Poor server management and discriminatory/irrational attitude.
« on: November 23, 2013, 08:55:51 PM »
In john79ep's server, I was able to easily get kills by using the AA tank against planes, but I found it too easy and wanted to try out the air team to see what the other point of view of gameplay was. The first problem was that the teams were locked. The second problem was the host, john79ep able to move players from team to team, rather than unlocking teams, which he seemed incapable of doing. The third was when john79ep switched someone over from the team that I had wanted to be on. In the time following, someone was auto-balanced to Air (this picture I did not get, but recall now.), the team I wanted to be on. John79ep then refused to transfer me, and even told his admins not to transfer me. This eventually became a huge argument, in which john79ep called me a 5-6-year-old and continues to think that I am that age, as he began bitching about me on the RTBC general discussion.
Now admittedly, the whole teamswap thing with john and axis was confusing, and I did get a few details wrong. To the users of the forum, I warn you that this user is someone to be wary of.

Suggestions & Requests / Pneumatic Pipe System
« on: November 18, 2013, 07:16:09 PM »
If you've played Tekkit, you know what I mean. It's a pipe system that carries items to different locations.
Would be better if there could be events and sorting systems too.

Suggestions & Requests / Event Request - Save and Load Position
« on: November 18, 2013, 02:47:15 AM »
Two outputs that operate off of player/bot.
Input >> Player >> SavePosition
Saves the player's X Y Z coordinates.
Input >> Player >> LoadPosition
Loads the player's X Y Z coordinates from the most recent save.
This would be useful for custom checkpoints.
If for instance a player keeps going to that position that is laggy, kills or respawns the player or anything else, perhaps have a command /clearposition

The Barrister Incident:
On January 5, 2063, the nation of New Horizons collapsed when the late Prime Minister John Barrister was assassinated by a man who didn't exist. He was unknown to any of the hundreds of nations and organizations around the globe; he had no identity, no family, no friends, and no record. Barrister was found dead in his office with a knife in his back and a note written in his hand writing relinquishing control of New Horizons to his assailant. The man secretly took control, disbanded all other branches of government, and shut down all foreign relations. A civil war broke out, but it wouldn't last long. All opposition was mysteriously crushed within a month, officials went missing, and the nation became a ruthless and corrupt dictatorship, ruled by the man with no name.
Who are you?
You are one of the many citizens of New Horizons unhappy with their government. However, you are unlike many other citizens of New Horizons, and seek to oust the new, corrupt regime. You may be a secret revolutionary or a double-agent, but your goal is the same- to restore a peaceful order to New Horizons.
Organizations:
(Note that regardless of organization, your loyalty is still to the old regime.)

Suggestions & Requests / Event Request - RestoreAvatar and RestoreNode
« on: November 08, 2013, 05:54:45 PM »
This is a request for an event, targeting players, that detects past avatars, and restores them.
For instance,
In the parameter, there would be multiple options in a drop down box that gives you the choice between the avatar that they were using by default, and any avatars forced to them during a minigame. If possible, maybe include another option for AvatarSlot and another parameter, defined by 1 to 0 for selecting a player's avatar in their favorites slot with said value.
When restoring player nodes,
The first parameter in this would be a drop-down menu with a list of all nodes. The second parameter would be the source, IE player preference, minigame defined or player slot. The third parameter would be for the player slot option only.

Off Topic / I'm getting sick. Any tips for turning this around?
« on: November 04, 2013, 09:05:44 PM »
Basically I can tell that a fever is coming on and if possible, I want to turn it around before it gets serious. I can tell that my throat is sore and that my temperature is slowly rising. As soon as I observed this, I drank an Emergen-C, and took an eccenasia, multi vitamin, and two fish oil tablets. I also ate a dinner with fish, peas and rice with a milk. After dinner, I ate a banana.
Essentially, I have been fighting it off, as it had been going around for a good two and a half months. Now I have the strong strain since so many generations of this have made it stronger.
Does anyone know how to, or have any experience stopping a fever or sickness before it comes full-on?

Help / VCE Help - Requiring multiple values.
« on: October 16, 2013, 01:10:41 PM »
With VCE, how would I require multiple conditions to trigger an output event?
For example, with two variable requirements, if I have a bucket of milk, and I need to fill empty jars with the milk, how would I detect the amount of milk and the amount of jars before proceeding to fill the jars. Say if I have 2 buckets of milk, and 1 bucket of milk equals 4 jars, it should detect how much milk I have, and supposing I only have 5 jars, fill up those jars, and leave ¾ of a bucket of milk behind.
How would I go about requesting for more variables? For three variables, suppose I have substance A and substance B. They can be smelted only when a brick's heat variable is at least a certain value. This should only give me a certain amount of substance C (the smelted material) and leave behind any insufficient amounts of substance A and B.
