I don't believe there are any negative aspects of this mod, such as imbalances or overpowered items. Summary - Familiar interaction, similar to Factorization (with a few more options) - Ore Dictionary support, if you have one type of dust in a barrel and put a different type, it will convert. - Automation support, IO from any side, locking item type - Extensive (and expensive) upgrade system, which seems quite balanced - DOLLY. Lets you pick up populated barrels and move them without losing the contents, also works on other compatible mods, such as Iron chests, BC tanks, machines, etc. - Some other things I'm too tired to notice probably Spotlight by BevoLJ I actually put effort into this suggestion topic yes
This actually is already in Alice 1.6! I like this mod a lot. Much better than Factorization, and the mod we had in 1.5.
Awesome, are the dollies gonna have full functionality? I can't tell you how many times I've wished for a way to move a full chest or energized machine lol
The dolly is very cool, and the way barrels handle ore dictionary issues, and converts all items to one id automatically is sweet too.
IIRC, dollies are only actually able to move vanilla chests, ironchests, BC tanks as well as their own barrels (and probably a few other things). But I haven't been able to pickup a machine.
The problem, we found, that it started using a substantial amount of server CPU when people had so many, where most of that CPU time was spent on sending players information about the contents of barrels. It was also occurring in the player tick code, so it was not something we could easily tone down without writing code.
So maybe now when we dont have any "automining" methods we could bring it back? as pleyers will have much less stuff this time ?
