# TechPack V2.00
|
|
|
|
## New in v2 (from players point of view)
|
|
- Almost all machines break after a certain amount of time (switch into the state 'defect') and have to be repaired.
|
|
- A Repair Kit is available to repair defect machines.
|
|
- A Forceload block (16x16x16) is added which keeps the corresponding area loaded and the machines operational as far as the player is logged in.
|
|
- The Quarry now uses LVM techniques to go down up to 100 meter
|
|
- Ladders, stairways, and bridges added for the machines (techpack_stairway)
|
|
- Industrial lamps
|
|
- Warehouse Boxes in steel, copper, and gold for your warehouse/stock (techpack_warehouse)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## New in v2 (from admins point of view)
|
|
- settingtypes introduced with the following settings: tubelib_max_num_forceload_blocks, tubelib_basalt_stone_enabled, tubelib_machine_aging_value
|
|
- the new mods 'techpack_stairway' and 'techpack_warehouse' have to be enabled
|
|
- TechPack depends now on the mod 'basic_materials' and 'tubelib2' (![GitHub](https://github.com/joe7575/tubelib2))

|
|
TechPack is a collection of mods for an automated mining, crafting, and farming. It is no replacement for Pipeworks, Mesecons, Technic, and Co., but it is a lightweight and simple to use alternative for servers with the focus on building (not only playing around with technique stuff).
|
|
If a player uses the full potential of TechPack, he can work on his building projects while TechPack is producing most of the necessary materials in the meantime.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
TechPack provides:
|
|
- lumber tubes to connect 2 nodes
|
|
- a Pusher node to pull/push items through tubes
|
|
- a Distributor node with 4 output channels to sort incoming items
|
|
- a Blackhole node which lets all items disappear
|
|
- Button/switches to send "switch on/off" messages
|
|
- a Forceload block to keep your machines operational
|
|
- Several lamp nodes in different colors (can be switched on/off)
|
|
- a Quarry node to dig for stones and other ground nodes
|
|
- a Harvester node to chop wood, leaves, flowers and crops
|
|
- a Grinder node to grind all kinds of cobblestone to gravel, gravel to sand, and sand to clay
|
|
- a Gravelsieve node to sieve ores from gravel
|
|
- an Autocrafter node for automated crafting of tools and items
|
|
- a Fermenter node to produce Bio Gas from leaves
|
|
- a Reformer node to produce Bio Fuel from Bio Gas (the Bio Fuel is needed by Harvester and Quarry nodes)
|
|
- a Funnel node to collect dropped items
|
|
- two Timer nodes for a daytime controlled sending of commands (on/off)
|
|
- two Sequencer nodes for a waiting time controlled sending of commands (on/off)
|
|
- an item Detector node sending commands (on/off)
|
|
- a Repeater node to distribute received commands to connected nodes
|
|
- Gate/Door nodes in different textures to be controlled via on/off commands
|
|
- an Access Lock node with number key field
|
|
- a Mesecon Converter node to translate tubelib commands in mesecon commands and vice versa
|
|
- a Programmer tool to simply collect node numbers
|
|
- a Player Detector node
|
|
- a Controller node with "IF this then that" rules, which allows:
|
|
- reading node states
|
|
- receiving commands from other nodes
|
|
- sending commands and alarms
|
|
- sending mails or chat messages
|
|
- output on a display
|
|
- a Controller to be programmed in Lua
|
|
- a Signal Tower node showing machine states
|
|
- a Display node for text outputs of the Controller
|
|
- Metal ladders, stairways, and bridges
|
|
- Warehouse Boxes in steel, copper, and gold
|
|
|
|
|
|
TechPack supports the following mods:
|
|
- Farming Redo (Harvester, Fermenter)
|
|
- Ethereal (Harvester, Quarry, Fermenter)
|
|
- Pipeworks (Gravel Sieve)
|
|
- Hopper (Gravel Sieve)
|
|
- Mesecon (Mesecon Converter)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
The following can be changed in the minetest menu (Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Mods -> tubelib) or directly in 'minetest.conf'
|
|
- Maximum number of Forceload Blocks per player
|
|
- Enable Basalt Stone (and disable ore generation via Cobblestone generator)
|
|
- Machine aging value to calculate the lifetime of machines
|
|
|
|
Example for 'minetest.conf':
|
|
```LUA
|
|
tubelib_basalt_stone_enabled = false
|
|
tubelib_max_num_forceload_blocks = 12
|
|
tubelib_machine_aging_value = 200
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example for a v1 compatible 'minetest.conf':
|
|
```LUA
|
|
tubelib_basalt_stone_enabled = false
|
|
tubelib_max_num_forceload_blocks = 0
|
|
tubelib_machine_aging_value = 999999
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Maximum number of Forceload Blocks per player
|
|
Default value is 12.
|
|
I higher number allows to build larger farms and machines which keep loaded, but increases the server load, too.
|
|
But the areas are only loaded when the player is online.
|
|
To be able to use e.g. 12 forceloaded blocks per player, the pararamter 'max_forceloaded_blocks' in 'minetest.conf' has to be ajusted.
|
|
|
|
#### Enable Basalt Stone (and disable ore generation via Cobblestone generator)
|
|
The lava/water Cobblestone generator allows to produce infinite Cobblestone. By means of Quarry,
|
|
Grinder, and Gravel Sieve it allows to infinite generate ores.
|
|
This can be disabled by means of the setting parameter. If enabled, the Cobblestone
|
|
generator generates Basalt instead, which only can be used for building purposes.
|
|
|
|
#### Machine aging value to calculate the lifetime of machines
|
|
Default value is 200.
|
|
This aging value is used to calculate the lifetime of machines before they go defect.
|
|
The value 200 (default) results in a lifetime for standard machines of about 2000 - 8000 item processing cycles (~2-4 hours).
