#managed to create an optical fiber that

neat those are some good looking tapeworms, what's your secret? i've messed around with (heat)pipes before trying to make all those variations look good is a pain ๐
It's complicated to explain, I did 1 photoshop file, each direction is a shape I can activate or not, added texture on top, separated the exterior and interior to make the connecting bits... then I used the deform tool to make them a bit organic and them look like (apparently) tapeworms
What does it actually do/transport?
"raw-data" is considered a fluid, and is used in computers to train algorythms (which are an item then used in a supercomputer which is its own kind of lab)
the data is currently harvested from alien remnants
oooh interesting
(lots of placeholders, this is WIP)
an interesting puzzle in there is that you first train a model which explodes in 30s if you don't use it immediately, that means you need to always control the creation of the unstable item, or destroy the excess safely.
(most of what's on the graphic is functional, but use a lot of placeholders so far)
what is that program to manage crafting chains?
It's actually Adobe illustrator CS6, which is what I'm more at ease with. I've looked for more ergonomic planning tools, couldn't find a better one
fair enough
i use yEd Graph Editor and i think it works pretty well
a bit easier than illustrator imo
those look really good!
thanks! it's actually designs for a research overhaul of large mods, originally designed to overhaul pY research
i only recently rediscovered these much older notes, ive made improvements to the ideas started here
Really cool idea with the optical fibers, reminds me of Exotic Industreis which has a separate fluid system for "Computing Power"
@daring fable did this make it into a mod yet?
-# if so, and its MIT, those tapeworm heat pipes would really fit the theme i'm experimenting with
This is part on Moshine, which is released now : ) feel free to take the optical fiber for your stuff
oh sweet, thanks 
(a surprising amount of assets in the main mod and not the graphic mod, where i looked first ๐)
Moshine-assets contains everything for the planet only, optical fiber is all in Moshine
(a planet contains a lot of graphics, with all the decorative and all that)
ah makes sense
