#

Source links always use the closest Jar nearby

burnt juniper
#

Is that single jar only? Could I just place a random jar next to the link and let it fill up and that will then stop and not fill the other jar near the Vitalic link?

viscid sleet
#

Maybe have a Jar that is close enough to the link but not enough to be picked by the condenser

#

It's closest with space available

#

If closest it's full then the second closest etc.

burnt juniper
#

Ah, so it would still eventually see the first jar and start filling it.

viscid sleet
#

I can't remember if there is any Redstone control on sourcelinks

burnt juniper
#

It's not really a problem in the end - there's lost source over time because of the loop, but it's a mob farm generating it in the first place, so it's limitless from that perspective. There's just this goofy looking triangle loop of Source particles flowing around a corner of the room. πŸ˜„

viscid sleet
#

Source condenser should have Redstone control

#

You can use a Redstone link or anything else to shut it off but unsure what would be the criteria

burnt juniper
#

If the source battery tank is above a certain threshold, I could output a stop signal to the condenser. At that point ,the fluid link will just fill all possible local jars, and since the condenser isn't draining them, the loop should stop once there are no jars left to fill.

I just need to figure out the 'fill to' line that the fluid link will stop at and then compare less than that to enable it, I think.

#

The Condenser drains faster than the Fluid Link fills (it's like 3 or 4 drain to 2 fill), so it will always replenish the tank when it's running.

#

This is ATM10, so I've got the Mob Util Jumbo tank, which is 1K buckets, so it's an insanely big battery anyway. Even a 90% full battery is insanely full by Source standards. πŸ™‚

#

Thanks for the insights!

viscid sleet
#

I'd personally have the fluid link part somewhere near the fluid tank with warpers to carry it where it's needed, since you're already using an ender fluid tank

#

Also the fluid jar in the chain is not strictly needed, the condenser should try to output to any kind of tank over it

burnt juniper
#

The Fluid Jar came into play because I needed to output from the condenser into something, and the instructions said you should put the Condenser atop a tank. The Fluid Link also said to put it atop a tank, so I needed two tanks. If you're saying I could put the condenser below the tank and the fluid link atop it, I might do that.

#

The EnderIO fluid conduit was solely to connect the two tanks together, so that would be eliminated if that's true.

viscid sleet
#

A pipe work work as well

#

For example if one wants to parallel with the ender Jar as only bottleneck

#

The eio pipes shouldn't have throughput problems

burnt juniper
#

I'll mess around with that and see what looks best. I have the very important criteria of "it has to look great" from the wife in conjunction with "it must work all the time". πŸ˜„

Doing a water creation spell

Test setup is just a turret next to a tank (Pneumaticcraft tank, though the issue is happening with any tank). It immediately crashes upon resolving the spell. Works fine if cast manually and collects in the same tank in my inventory.

viscid sleet
#

Uh

#

The crash is relative to the item search

#

Which means there's an inventory next to it?

lapis ether
#

the tank does have an item slot, yeah

#

but that's the only inventory

viscid sleet
#

It says in range [0,1) so it makes sense

#

But what about the other tanks?

lapis ether
#

oh, that log was for a Functional Storage fluid drawer (still has inventory slots for upgrades).

Lemme try a tank without any item slots

viscid sleet
#

I wonder if the inventory it's checking is the fake player or something otherwise

lapis ether
#

Fluid Containment Jar and AE2's Sky Stone Tank both work fine. Neither has an item slot

#

oh wait

viscid sleet
#

I should be able to give it a local try on the pneumaticraft one

lapis ether
#

those are smaller, so I removed the burst

#

I cast the same spell at the Functional Storage drawer (initial crash) and that works

viscid sleet
#

So you think it's tied to burst somehow?

lapis ether
#

hrm, maybe.... I just cast it again with the PNC tank and it looks like it died. no crash because I have neoforge set to yeet erroring entities

#

lemme restart and try it clean

#

sorry, restart is slow >.<

#

yep, ok. Crashes without burst. This was into a PNC huge tank.

viscid sleet
#

crash confirmed, i'll try to see if it's quick to solve

#

wow, surprised it wasn't discovered earlier

#

it wasn't using a min between 9 (the hotbar in the case of a player inv) and the total size of the inventory to check

#

ok now it should work but be careful

#

that spell makes a ton of water

#

a large tank is not enough to hold it

#

this should solve it

lapis ether
#

Awesome! Thanks a ton

lapis ether
viscid sleet
#

Yeah apparently the whole cauldron thing only memo the final result, non even the recipe

#

It's a limit of using it as a base

lapis ether
#

What does the Wixie's Mixer do? I had thought like 3x3 crafts that use buckets but I'm not having much luck

viscid sleet
#

it has a tank for milk and one for water

#

would handle the crafts that use those two buckets, taking from the block's tank, in theory

lapis ether
#

oh, so it'd need a bucket?

viscid sleet
#

Well the idea is that you wouldn't

lapis ether
#

hrm

viscid sleet
#

Smth like making cake without using buckets

#

But filling the tank of the mixer with milk fluid

lapis ether
#

gotcha. will try a few more, but so far not having much luck

lucid garden
#

If there any difference between the starbunclemania liquid source and the liquid source seemingly added by Ars Hex Unity?

viscid sleet
#

It's appearing in jei? It shouldn't

#

Liquid source has been moved to the Sauce library

#

It would have some shenanigans to not register it at all so I have to register it but hide it

lucid garden
#

You’re right! It isn’t. I appear to have asked a moment too soon.

gaunt quartz
#

Hello

#

Is it possible to use source fluid for crafting in enchanting apparatus?

#

If not- what is the purpose of fluid then?

viscid sleet
#

People wanted to store it in huge tanks

#

since the jars were small

#

and also place it in the world

gaunt quartz
#

But to use it again You need to change it into normal source in jars

viscid sleet
#

few packs may use the fluid for special recipes

gaunt quartz
#

With fluid source link

#

But then - lava has more source than source fluid ;p

viscid sleet
#

yeah, because Source is more like energy, it's not a fluid so you have to turn it into one and back

#

it's more something that people wanted just for it, than something that sparked as a dev idea

#

we don't see the reason for huge source deposits either, which was one of the main args of storing it as fluid in those huge-one block meka tanks

gaunt quartz
#

Oki doki thx for answering πŸ™‚

lapis ether
#

Have you considered making a different model for the wixie furnace? Like even just a cauldron of lava?

It looks a bit odd since it's always facing the same orientation. I'm sure that's because the base cauldron has no rotation too

viscid sleet
#

Ah, the furnace was never changed?

#

That's the model I totally forgot then

#

Yeah I guess a lava cauldron is the fastest option. Maybe with a grill net on top

lapis ether
#

haha, nice

#

maybe red runes instead of purple

gaunt quartz
#

Hey is it the case

#

?

viscid sleet
#

It was moved to sauce

#

Which is a library inside most of my addons

gaunt quartz
#

sauce:source_fluid?

viscid sleet
#

Should be

gaunt quartz
#

Still doesn't work L:c

#

It was

#

source_fluid_block

viscid sleet
#

Oh you meant the block not the fluid

lapis ether
#

I mean, that's exactly what I had in mind.

I thought your idea of tossing a grate on top was great, but this works πŸ˜„

viscid sleet
#

i can still do that, just needs a bit of attempts

lapis ether
#

If it doesn't work out, you've still got a winner, imo πŸ˜„

viscid sleet
#

zfighting aside, i've got this

#

other option would be to make it black-ish like the cauldron

lapis ether
#

hrm, making it dark would probably help yeah

#

need @tender pasture 's thoughts

tender pasture
#

what did i do

#

can you do iron bars but horizontal

#

that kinda looks like a basket

viscid sleet
#

it's because i took the grate from the bottom of the cooking pot thing

lapis ether
#

think it just needs to be less circular

viscid sleet
lapis ether
#

right looks much better

viscid sleet
#

might try to go for a full grid

#

feels like returning to square one

lapis ether
#

is better, I think

#

with the bigger gaps

viscid sleet
#

with black grid it's not very pretty

#

even if yes, i should use the same gray

lapis ether
#

nah, you had it right with gold, I think

#

maybe just darken up the gold if you want to give it a bit of a sooty look

#

but I'd think the wixie would be pretty clean about her workstation

viscid sleet
#

another attempt

lapis ether
#

Looks good to me. I'd be happy with either that or the brighter gold.

#

might help to see it with the lava under it

viscid sleet
#

i need to screen it ingame otherwise it's not gonna be real

lapis ether
#

the extra sticky-outy bits on this last one are a nice touch though

viscid sleet
#

also changed the runes on the mixer btw

viscid sleet
#

Sent the file to review

#

thanks!

viscid sleet
#

i have the pr to extend the cosmetic thing to all workers, but no idea if/when bailey will look at it

#

so you would be able to add the chef hat to the non-familiar ver too

lapis ether
#

that would be amazing, had never even considered doing that

viscid sleet
#

the tooltip of few cosmetic things should say who support it

#

i have to handmade the offsets for their placement

lapis ether
#

ah yep, hadn't noticed that

#

always finding fun new stuff with the ars mods

obtuse furnace
#

is there a full video demonstration of wixie farmers' delight?

gleaming venture
#

ok am im hoping tha im right on this but dose this item allow me to mark out a box and get a buncle workin on mining it out and can i add more than 1 buncle to the job

#

theres also a builder one so my question stands for it aswell in terms of how intricate can i get with it

viscid sleet
#

It's an accessory that changes a single starby

#

It will mine the spots it was linked to, with the dominion wand, and will use a specific pick it given one

gleaming venture
#

hmm so assuming that i can click on the diamond block and then on the gold block to clear these logs am i right in that or is it single block locations only like the redstone block?

gleaming venture
#

@viscid sleet am i right assuming this is the case or is it a 1 block mining thing?

viscid sleet
#

1 block mining, but you can put multiple spots

errant raptor
#

OK, so I tried making a starbuncle miner.

#

It seems to just..occasionally break a block?

#

I also can't figure out how to remove its hat now

#

update: it breaks one block every time I punch it, which I'm not fond of

spare nacelle
#

Hello, could someone please tell me exactly what this robin mask is used for? I feel no different from starbuncle shades

#

@viscid sleet

pliant stone
#

Not a big fan of pings, especially after waiting for a whole minute, please do check the rules πŸ™‚

To answer your question: Probably used to make the starbuncles round-robin.
Meaning: Bind it to 5 locations to deposit. Without the mask, as long as there's room, it will put stuff only in the first location.
With the mask, it will put items in 1 each, then start from the beginning again

spare nacelle
#

the direction scroll cannot be used on starbuncle? is this a BUG?

#

I have already used wyrm degree on starbuncle, but it still has no effect

#

There is also a problem with star battery and it cannot be used. I have linked the corresponding block, but starbuncle has no response at all

cerulean blaze
#

how compatible with create is this, like the liquid sourcelink, can I just pump lava directly into there with a pipe?

#

just checking cause I have a plan but I dont wanna do it if its gonna fail instantly

viscid sleet
#

It has an internal tank, any mod should be able to input in it

cerulean blaze
#

thank you

#

I was so damn excited when i found this mod, I really really enjoy liquid handling and so this sjust made me super excited

viscid sleet
#

If you need a buffer, you can put the source link on top of a tank and it will automatically suck it up

mossy girder
#

just put the liquid sourcelink on top of a tank

cerulean blaze
#

first I gotta set up my lava train and then I get infinite source

mossy girder
#

it automatically pulls from below

cerulean blaze
#

thank you for making this mod btw, I really wanted liquid source for awhile

versed cipher
#

You can have all sorts of fun with liquid source.

lapis ether
#

Seems like the Fluid Sourcelink recipes are no longer showing in EMI/JEI

viscid sleet
#

I honestly forgot they even did

lapis ether
#

πŸ˜„

viscid sleet
#

Was that between versions or between updates?

lapis ether
#

honestly? probably between versions. I hadn't been paying attention to it in a while though

#

thinking back though, I can't recall seeing them in 1.21.1 at all

viscid sleet
#

well it is there

#

simply doesn't work on buckets for example

#

it does show with U on the link

lapis ether
#

huh, ok something else is breaking it then... it's not showing for me

viscid sleet
#

i did manage to add the U on buckets working

lapis ether
#

are you using JEI, EMI, or both?

viscid sleet
#

really? U on the fluid sourcelink is not working?

#

jei only

#

so tmrv needed prob if you're on emi

lapis ether
#

hrm, ok, I have JEI + EMI. Had EMI +TMRV previously and that also didn't work

#

launching a stripped down pack now

viscid sleet
lapis ether
#

😒 if I can ever launch lol. So many dependencies and they aren't getting installed

viscid sleet
#

doesn't that only need curios on top of the list?

lapis ether
#

yeah, but gecko also didn't get installed

#

and I hit the wrong thing for curios

#

got an addon which also didn't install curios, but also needed another mod, lol

#

which it didn't install

#

le sigh

#

This is all I get on the sourcelink

viscid sleet
#

wth

#

that doesn't make sense?

lapis ether
#

lemme check your updated one

viscid sleet
#

ah reactive

lapis ether
#

yeah

#

your update doesn't work either. So now I'll remove EMI

#

so it's just not working with EMI, even with JEI or TMRV

viscid sleet
#

Weird btw, I don't have experience in EMI though. Could be a matter of fluid rendering being too different, while item rendering is fully compatible

lapis ether
#

yeah, couldn't say. normally the JEI compatible things just come on through, no problem when JEI is there. Previously had some issues with TMRV not showing certain recipes, but even in Enigmatica 9 this was working with JEI+EMI

#

there are any plans to modify the texture of the Wixie stone cutter? The arcane stone texture can be used instead of the stone texture

versed bridge
#

Suggestion: Wixie campfire pots (cooking pots from cobblemon)
Hmmm

versed cipher
#

If you mean the ones from Farmers, that's already done.

#

Farmers Delight cooking wixies, cutting board wixies and even furnace wixies.

viscid sleet
#

no it's a different recipe type

#

more likely to be included in the thing to make starbuncles cobblemons

versed cipher
#

Another pack with another custom cooking system.

viscid sleet
#

if only i could make the model be recognized

lusty anvil
#

hmm wait until someone figures out a create option for cooking pot using mixer? then just a wixie mixer?

#

can I just setup an allow list of bars to smelt for wixie?

If I want wixie to handle multiple ingots can I do something like an allow list on pedestal or better off just using 1 furnace wixie per bar
