fleet remnant
#

Plenty bored at work so im just vomiting out a buncha custom recipes on the doc

fleet remnant
#

Made a spell "Some Item Pipes" (projectile toss) so the quest book can say "Craft Some Item Pipes"

fleet remnant
#

Continuing the bored at work saga

#

Dont hv the exact colors currently being used in game, so just pixked out some random ones n drew some cores

cyan pecan
#

Noice

fleet remnant
#

yeah, tried making the grey bits look like archwood bark

clear oxide
#

ciel

obsidian helm
#

Ah btw CT is getting partial tag support for randomize

#

So if you really want you can have mossy cobblestone from that

#

or anyway remove dirts/stones from those conjurables

fleet remnant
#

Can someone ping and remind to work on this this weekend?

#

Thanks

hazy bay
#

OKAY

fresh linden
#

@fleet remnant reminder to work on this this weekend

fleet remnant
#

@fresh linden fuck you. Come teach me kubejs

fresh linden
#

nah

cloud spear
#

I know how to add, modify, and remove recipes

#

Also item names

#

That's as far as I go though

fleet remnant
#

Well the thing is it cant possibly take qther more than 2hrs to get to my house

#

And he's the one askin for me to get crackin on making n finishing this pack

cloud spear
#

Ah, I see

#

I would probably take a bit longer than 2 hours

fierce kindle
fleet remnant
#

hmm, aside from the core content addons, what minor Ars addons do yall think I should add for QoL

lapis dawn
#

The more the merrier?

fleet remnant
#

Apothic Additions....?

lapis dawn
#

Also Qther's gonna come over and beat your ass if you don't include Controle.

fleet remnant
#

im including Controle anyways cause portable rituals

fleet remnant
hazy bay
fleet remnant
#

yall hate me so much

lapis dawn
#

Er. I mean. No. I just like seeing you suffer.

fleet remnant
#

it's a race thing isnt it

lapis dawn
#

Don't even know what race you are Singapore is so mixed culturewise that you could be an angry viking as far as I know

hazy bay
#

lol sure, guess I hate myself too then hehshake

hazy bay
fleet remnant
#

Neoforge is recommended right?

hazy bay
#

I mean..yea? Ars is not on fabric :p

lapis dawn
#

pretty much the only option if you want to do this in 1.21

fleet remnant
#

is forge not an option?

lapis dawn
#

For important drama reasons, not in 1.21, no

fleet remnant
#

ooo tea

lapis dawn
#

As of July 12th 2023, the discord formerly known as "Forgecord" was rebranded to a new project -
NeoForged. Simultaneously, the Neoforged github organization forked the original Minecraft Forge
project. This post discusses in detail the reasons behind that, from the point of view of cpw -
one of the people who triggered the takeover.

fleet remnant
#

gonna make this forge, publish to modrinth, and slap "All The" in the name

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

ars is straight up incompatible with forge

lapis dawn
#

pssst

#

dont ruin his dreams

fresh linden
#

thats what i live for

fleet remnant
#

ftb chunks for world and mini map?

#

no need xaero's or journey?

fresh linden
#

some people like open parties and claims but i have no clue why they do

fleet remnant
#

they're good, but annoying to navigate

fresh linden
#

idk ftb just works

fleet remnant
#

u can disable hostile mob spawning in claimed chunks for one

#

but yeah, rly not-user-friendly

#

unintuitive*

fresh linden
#

i have a strong preference for tombstones: corail
it has never failed me ever
but then again it adds content, which doesnt really fit the pack

fleet remnant
#

do we want to attempt to rope tech into the pack?

fresh linden
#

i have a stronger anti-preference for tombstones: corpse

#

that mod has failed me way too many times to count

fleet remnant
#

i just think the corpses r annoying

obsidian helm
#

Let's just make our own tombstone mod

fresh linden
#

i think thats enough tech

obsidian helm
#

So Qther can blame directly the author in the mirror

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

im personally very down for ae2

#

but i know some people would prefer not having it

#

probably xacris included

#

probably zieg included

obsidian helm
#

If you include AE you would have to gate it towards the endgame

fleet remnant
#

i'd need to think of a bullshit way to incorporate it into progression

obsidian helm
#

To give room to the bookwyrms until it reach a critical point

fleet remnant
#

Elemancy and ATAG?

fresh linden
#

gating is easy enough to do because you cant do anything with ae2 unless you get the inscriber presses

#

plus its a skyblock so you dont even have a method to obtain certus by default

fleet remnant
#

is this necessary?

fresh linden
#

look at the description to see what mods it supports

#

its mostly tech mods

weak basin
#

back with the first Arcane Isles, Bailey took a hard stance against even Create lol

fresh linden
#

so id assume no

#

yeah unfortunately ars technica is good

fleet remnant
hazy bay
weak basin
#

I did end up adding it to my single player instance and made some imbuement chamber recipes to get some of the Create materials

#

like the colored rocks

#

azurite and whatnot

fresh linden
#

the biggest issue i envision is how conjure terrain makes tuff

fleet remnant
#

Flavors n Delights?

fresh linden
#

and tuff can be crushed into iron, copper, gold, and zinc

weak basin
#

flavors and delights yes

fleet remnant
weak basin
#

the tuff output is... not super fantastic though

fresh linden
#

it is quite good when put in a proper setup

#

especially when you consider transmutation turrets

fleet remnant
#

though i still hvnt implemented enough uses for the metals

weak basin
#

if scaled up to hell and back

fleet remnant
#

affinity?

fresh linden
#

i was doing something with 16 tuff/4gt

#

it produced a crazy amount of metals

fleet remnant
#

is this necessary? does kubejs not interface without this?

fresh linden
#

so much so that my vanilla crafters couldnt keep up

#

more so my disabling circuitry for lag reduction

weak basin
#

yeah that'd be scaled up. Anything you build I will not be considering for balance

fresh linden
#

sometimes itd just leave it on disabled

#

16 tuff/4gt is not crazy

#

thats like 3 aoes

fleet remnant
#

oi focus

fresh linden
#

kubejs can make recipes

fleet remnant
weak basin
#

it adds some specific methods for Ars methods

fleet remnant
#

fuck no amirite?

weak basin
#

just adds some syntax, basically

fresh linden
#

that page seems to be purely for ars recipes

#

i mean, could be helpful but i doubt its necessary

weak basin
#

Reliquified Ars... is broken

#

all the relics are honestly too good lol

fleet remnant
#

it's so annoying

fresh linden
#

i dont know why we need artifacts when we dont really have any pve content except wilden

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

i would just say skip that one

#

its a copy paste job either way

#

it doesnt really look easier or harder

#

it just exists as an alternative for whatever reason

weak basin
#

like there's a specific kubejs method for an imbuement chamber recipe rather than needing to make a generic recipe and then specify the imbuement chamber inside it

bleak girder
fleet remnant
#

ok so big one. add or not add

bleak girder
#

It's an ars skyblock, yes?

fresh linden
#

my argument against it is that youre just gonna copy, paste, and modify your previously made recipes anyways

fresh linden
#

caelum also changes some crush recipes

fleet remnant
#

custom structures wld be done w Caelum?

#

i forgot where that convo went

fresh linden
#

id assume he would make a custom mod

weak basin
#

Jarva was saying a custom mod would most likely be needed

#

just in general for the extra stuff we want to do

fresh linden
#

most well-made packs nowadays have a core mod of sorts to add custom stuff and modify stuff in other mods

fleet remnant
#

i'll add it for the biomes, but i'll need to think abt how to gate shit

fresh linden
#

a conjure nether ritual would be quite funny i think

fleet remnant
weak basin
#

that was the core mod for the first one and added a lot of the changes... though the custom recipes were mostly done via kubejs

fresh linden
#

you can do a lot with a nether biome in the overworld

#

no blazes though

weak basin
#

would be cool to have other dimension conjure islands

fleet remnant
#

i'll keep going, just let me know if im missing anything glaring

bleak girder
#

Honestly seems good for a skyblock. And yes to Ultimine.

#

Maybe megatorches or something similar?

fresh linden
#

functional storage because thats the best drawer mod fight me

weak basin
#

mm, I'm always iffy on ultimine

#

I was gonna say functional storage as well

fresh linden
#

sophisticated storage's drawers are not it

fleet remnant
#

i'll hv both FS and SS

weak basin
#

I like having both of them

hazy bay
#

just remove SS drawer, problem solve :D

fresh linden
#

i think youre forgetting quite a few ars addons

weak basin
#

Soph storage fits a lot of my needs, but Functional Storage does have some extra spice

fleet remnant
#

im using them on Evo

fresh linden
#

creo and technica very notably

#

oh nvm creo is in

bleak girder
fresh linden
#

nah nvm just elemancy

#

technica is in

#

id actually hope that we dont need polymorph or polymorphia

#

like ideally polymorph is a pack dev thing

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

ah

#

personally id say no to both

#

i thought that was you talking about gating ae2 lol

bleak girder
#

Elemancy is fine? I'm not a giant fan but it's less absurd than ATAG.

fresh linden
#

nothing against lyrellion but we really dont need powerscaling when our only real boss is the chimera

#

who i should remind you is a joke on skyblock

bleak girder
#

Wither is honestly a bigger deal.

fresh linden
#

as for atag i just feel very weirded out when a pack that isnt made by atm has atmium

#

and again we dont need that power scaling

bleak girder
#

But yeah, I think the pack should be balanced around ars primarily, and as a skyblock, primarily focused on tech, not combat.

fresh linden
#

on tech???

#

heresy

fleet remnant
#

idk what the diffs r, this is where u guys come in

bleak girder
#

Automation I meant.

fresh linden
#

sodium works

#

embeddium works too but sodium is the original and is more updated

bleak girder
#

Sodium and LambDynamic lights is good.

fresh linden
#

iris works with both but honestly id just leave that to the player to add

#

we dont need default shaders

#

i always remove all the shaders and resource packs that packs come with

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

yeah those are good

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

lambdynamiclights is what powers /ars-light nowadays anyways

#

i hate carryon, i prefer stuff like bag of yurting or cardboard boxes

#

stop overriding my shift clicks!

bleak girder
fresh linden
#

yes i know you can rebind it but its an extra key on my keyboard for what

#

bag of yurting is also more flexible in that it can move a volume

#

not just 1x1x1

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

just add both theres no reason not to

weak basin
#

Bailey gets annoyed every time I put carry on in a pack lol

bleak girder
#

Fair. For me Carryon's biggest help is villager rangling.

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

ok so i see a lot of big packs add that

#

but i have no idea what it does

#

and its very suspicious to me

#

because its closed source???

fleet remnant
#

(this is a joke)

fresh linden
#

oh nvm its not closed source anymore

#

less suspicious i guess, why not

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

i remember i used to use randompatches for connection issues in like 1.12

fresh linden
fleet remnant
#

is this what lets me edit configs in-game?

fresh linden
#

i mean create adds one too

#

but sure you can add that

bleak girder
#

Yeah, that's a good one to add.

fresh linden
#

also why jei

#

emi+tmrv supremacy

fleet remnant
bleak girder
#

I'll second that, EMI is very solid.

fresh linden
#

i still have no idea why that mod is a thing

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

portal linking isnt that complicated

#

it works fine

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

normally id be against it because its very likely to break vanilla farms that use portals

#

but since we have ars i dont care

fleet remnant
#

BAHAHAHAHAHA

fresh linden
#

anything id use vanilla portals for, warp portals would be better for

#

except overworld gold farms i guess

fleet remnant
#

everyone point and laugh at the shit mod

fresh linden
#

those dont rely on portal teleportation anyways

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

that ported?

#

i dont think it really does anything for a skyblock pack anyways

#

so id just say no

bleak girder
fleet remnant
#

is there an easy compiled stat viewer besides this?

fresh linden
#

dont think so, that mods fine

bleak girder
fresh linden
#

botania would be so good tbh

#

unfortunately theyre still in porting hell

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

personally i just use tweakerge

#

i do not play minecraft without tweakeroo (tweakerge on neo/forge), minihud (bocchud on neo/forge) and litematica (forgematica on neo/forge)

fleet remnant
#

ok hot take. this is actual garbage

fresh linden
#

i dont mind its existence but i end up throwing my stuff on the ground anyways

#

because pressing Q is easier than moving my mouse to the slot and back

#

oh yeah btw 20 glyph limit pls

#

thats the defacto standard for ars packs these days lol

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

the patreon/test server has been on 20 for a long while too

fleet remnant
bleak girder
#

Both good, I think.

fresh linden
#

genuinely i dont know what youd need torchmaster for

#

sanctuary exists

#

and its a skyblock

bleak girder
#

Oh true.

fresh linden
#

trash cans are good though yes

#

it also solves my biggest issue with create

#

why the hell does create not have a way to dispose of items without dropping it as an entity

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

well it does, in the form of crushing wheels, but thats stupid and you know it is

bleak girder
bleak girder
fresh linden
#

yeah

#

trash cans also have stuff for fluids and energy though

#

not sure we have energy here

bleak girder
#

Don't think so?

fresh linden
#

oh yeah if we end up doing ae2 just remove all the energy costs

bleak girder
#

Oh. Amendments would be nice for decor

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

well actually ars energistique exists but eh

fleet remnant
fresh linden
fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

no opinion, i dont use magnets

bleak girder
fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

sure why not

bleak girder
#

Observable or Spark are probably ideal.

fresh linden
#

both

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

sure

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

i wouldnt mind easyvillagers either but i know that conflicts with ars' jar trading

fresh linden
bleak girder
#

Happy Ghast is a neat building tool, everything else is fine to have.

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

thats basically quark

#

it was probably made because quark didnt port yet

fleet remnant
#

i didnt add quark

#

unless i should instead of this?

fresh linden
fresh linden
fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

im likely to turn off reacharound placement either way

fleet remnant
#

oh how bad would making ponders be?

fresh linden
#

ive heard its pretty difficult

#

ponderjs is what youll want for that though

bleak girder
fleet remnant
#

i'll add it now and complain to u guys later

fresh linden
#

honestly doesnt sound that useful

bleak girder
#

And honestly, Happy Gast for working on the underside of the island sounds perfect.

fresh linden
#

again ars has flight

#

not sure how we want to gate that though

bleak girder
#

Oh right, and it's not too hard to access.

fresh linden
#

depends on gating but yeah

fleet remnant
#

did i miss anything we covered?

fresh linden
#

oh yeah theres the new music addon

#

could be nice

fleet remnant
#

musique?

fresh linden
#

yep

#

computercraft would help with controle but im not sure thats worth adding considering pack theme

bleak girder
#

For Create addons, Central Kitchen?

fleet remnant
#

im disabling machines remember

#

no belts either

fresh linden
#

i think mart plans to remove all the create machines

bleak girder
#

Oh right.

#

Uh, do we want one of the building wands or gadgets?

fleet remnant
bleak girder
#

Or is that a "build a spell, stupid" moment.

fleet remnant
#

or no resource pack and it's an inside-joke

fresh linden
#

theres no way youre going to be able to make computers make magical

fleet remnant
#

what's Astrologique?

fresh linden
#

that isnt that scifi

fleet remnant
fresh linden
fleet remnant
#

guys i want them

fresh linden
#

gadgets can have energy requirements disabled fwiw, but i dont like them so whatever

fleet remnant
#

guys....

#

guys i want the cute mobs

fresh linden
#

i have a feeling some hardcore ars players wouldnt like construction sticks either

limpid ruinBOT
#

@fresh linden

Result for search: Chaining

Causes a spell to chain through multiple grouped targets, either similar blocks or living entities other than the caster. AOE increases target count. Pierce increases maximum jump distance between targets.

AOE: Increases the number of targets struck.
Pierce: Increases the maximum distance between targets.
Randomize: Randomly excludes valid targets from the chaining, creating less uniform shapes.
Sensitive: Restrict chaining to same-type entities and to exposed blocks. If two are added, chaining on blocks will only happen where the hit side of the block is exposed.
AOE III: Increases the area of effect (stronger than AOE II).
AOE II: Increases the area of effect (stronger than AOE).

Tier

Cost

300

Per Spell Limit

fresh linden
#

double sensitive is basically construction wand

bleak girder
#

Oh, Comforts? Less need for a sleepingbag, but still.

fleet remnant
#

hows bout i gate stick behind chain and place block glyph and a buncha manipulation essence

fresh linden
#

i dont really care either way

weak basin
#

I think having a building aid or two is a good idea regardless of the ones we go with

fresh linden
#

stick is convenient early game but it doesnt really hurt much to not have it

fleet remnant
#

im adding cute mobs and yall will LIKE THEM

fresh linden
#

and we arent doing mekanism or anything so i wont be using a stick to build turbines

weak basin
#

yeah mek I think is the only one I'd be hardline against

fleet remnant
#

gonna make quests to talk about animal conservation

#

IM MAKING IT WOKE

fresh linden
#

hell no for mekanism

#

mekanism needs to stay out of every pack

fresh linden
#

i am sick of mekanism

fleet remnant
#

IM ADDING ANIMALS AND TALKING ABOUT CONSERVATION

fresh linden
#

and then sticking them in jar for old men to dance to

#

good job on your conservation efforts

fleet remnant
#

btw im riding a boba sugar high rn

#

i forgot if i got 25 or 50%

weak basin
fresh linden
#

i always get 0 lol

weak basin
#

love those little red birds

fresh linden
#

somehow 0% is still sweet

#

oh yeah mart you need to add a way for xacris to get sculk

#

this is very important

weak basin
#

oh yeah, very important

fleet remnant
cloud spear
# fleet remnant what's Astrologique?

Right now? Addon for self buff spells and the Enchanter. Later on, I'll be adding Abjuration and Conjuration gear like with Elemental, except I'll be theming everything around astronomy and space.

#

It's super early WIP though and I haven't had much chance to dig into everything I want to add.

weak basin
#

I only remember loading up some modpack and walking through a forest and hearing and recognizing cardinal song, then finding them. I was delighted that they had the correct bird song

fleet remnant
#

what we think? ^ add?

weak basin
#

(cardinals nest in my yard)

fresh linden
#

sunbirds nest on my balcony

#

pigeons too

fresh linden
#

i dont think it hurts

#

at the very least i dont think itll break balance

#

iridium doesnt strike me as a power fantasy dev

cloud spear
#

Do consider the fact that the Enchanter exists

#

They're a trader mob

#

Their trades are hard coded right now until I figure out how to make them datapackable or KubeJSable.

fresh linden
#

you could look at how its done in modern versions

fleet remnant
fresh linden
#

i think they made villagers fully datapackable as of 26.1

cloud spear
fresh linden
#

otherwise you could just use recipes

cloud spear
#

You need to throw them a blank parchment to get their shard.

fleet remnant
#

ok im taking a quick toilet break

cloud spear
fresh linden
#

basically just input stacks and output stacks

#

then pull a random list from all the recipes

#

could also have categories

cloud spear
#

I see..

fresh linden
#

could also use the villager xp system

fleet remnant
cloud spear
#

I'm on Easter break all week so I'll try to get my hands on Astrologique and make the trades recipes or something.

fresh linden
#

have those instead of categories

fleet remnant
#

@fresh linden WE NEED THIS ON 1.21.1

fresh linden
#

not happening i dont make mobs :D

#

entities and rendering are two things i do not touch

cloud spear
fresh linden
#

rendering is a big part of why i dont touch entities

fresh linden
#

might be better to use meaningless indices for the category because those wouldnt make sense if someone wanted to replace all the trades

fleet remnant
#

Cause theyre stuck on 1.20

#

Im debating whether or not to do Alex's Mobs

cloud spear
#

Mart, for your consideration, here's what trades I remember from the Enchanter:

  • 1 Source Gem โ€”> 2 Essences
  • 1 Additions' Codex + ~3 Blaze Rods โ€”> Tier 2 Codex
  • Tier 2 Codex + Nether Star โ€”> Tier 3 Codex
  • Sword or Shield or Bow + Source Gem Blocks โ€”> Enchanter's Sword or Shield or Bow
  • Iron Armor + Magebloom Fiber โ€”> Arcanist Armor
fresh linden
#

personally never been a fan of alexs mods

fleet remnant
#

Same

cloud spear
#

Again, I'll be trying to make it datapackable so you can tinker with it for AI2 but I figure you'd want the heads up

fresh linden
#

i remember finding an item spawn exploit in ice & fire and alex's mobs for 1.12

fleet remnant
#

Um, r jar interactions datapackable?

cloud spear
fresh linden
fleet remnant
#

FUCK

#

HOW DO I ADD CUSTOM INTERACTIONS

fresh linden
#

code

cloud spear
#

Modpack core mod

fresh linden
#

or malice, but i prefer to assume incompetence over malice

#

oh yeah there was also an nbt edit exploit in alex's caves

#

but only for their own items

#

so it wasnt a full item spawn

#

so yeah one major exploit in 3 mods

#

not a good look

fresh linden
fleet remnant
#

PIGEON

fresh linden
#

pigeon is good

#

i miss my pigeons

#

theyre not dead theyre just not nesting yet

#

well i hope theyre not dead

#

theyre not our pets anyways they just like our balcony

fleet remnant
#

And they predate on pigeons

fresh linden
fleet remnant
#

?

fresh linden
#

might have to show alpha files

#

before you ask no i do not know how to do that on the curseforge app

#

prismlauncher is the only launcher i use

fleet remnant
#

ok thoughts

#

no image on cardinals

#

wait how do i make it a void world?

fresh linden
#

but im not sure if it integrates with ftb teams automatically

fleet remnant
#

It's not on FTB Skies 2 so :/

#

How the fuck

fresh linden
#

i mean its ftb

#

they have made a skyblock mod before

#

i wouldnt be surprised if its their core mod doing it

#

aha

#

thats their continuation

fleet remnant
#

Otherwise you'd have to somehow set up a buncha breakers filtered to only break the fully grown clusters

fresh linden
#

fair enough

fleet remnant
#

im rn lookin thru Evolution's mod list...

#

u think this synergises with buncles?

#

someone has to teach me how to read this shit

#

i foresee it being a big recurring issue

#

ugh this is gonna be pain isnt it

fresh linden
#

the heck

#

theres no stacktrace or anything

fleet remnant
#

idk, i was able to open into the main menu after anyways

#

now im just tryna figure out the team bases mod

#

i dont fucking understand what im reading bro

#

LIKE WTF. IT JUMPS RIGHT INTO CODE

#

WHERE DOES CODE GO

fresh linden
#

btw anytime it tells you to make a datapack you can just put it in kubejs/data/...

fleet remnant
#

ok so im opening skies 2 and digging thru files for reference i spose

fresh linden
#

skies 2 uses ftb obsidian so their datapacks are just in a datapacks folder

#

but you dont need to do that cos kubejs

fleet remnant
#

i dont understand

fleet remnant
#

what should i use to write said code btw?
