After much debate the Mod Pack Team has decided that due to substantial performance issues Ender IO will be removed from the Alice pack on February 15, 2014. While Ender IO provides many useful features, unfortunately this mod is responsible for a substantial portion of the performance issues users are experiencing on the server. We strongly recommend that you convert any and all systems using Ender IO immediately to prevent any issues with your base when the mod is removed. Systems not converted by February 15, 2014 will stop functioning. An NPC will be available at spawn to convert Ender IO items to comparable items from another mod in the very near future. (Shop now open, see below) I would like to remind you all that the MPT does it's best to prevent situations like this from occurring, but unfortunately, we have exhausted all other options when it comes to Ender IO. We will continue to re-evaluate Ender IO in the future, and should the performance issues with the mod be resolved at a later date, we will explore re-adding it to the pack in a future update. Thank you all for your understanding. UPDATE: There is now an exchange shop set up at the Greenwell Market in spawn. The shop is on the south side across from the library and post office area. Exchange Ratios: Conduits are exchanged 1:1 based on tier/category. Materials are exchanged at a ratio of 1:2, since the NPCs can only give one item back. Dusts are exchanged 1:1 for the equivalent dust or material The 1:2 ratio helps cover the cost of the additional materials needed in the smelter. Machines are traded for a machine with the closest equivalent from Thermal Expansion. If no equivalent exists, the machine will be traded for Diamonds. Moderator Exchanges: NPC's will not accept certain items due to NBT data. Please contact a moderator to exchange the following items. Dimensional Transceiver to Tesseract - 1:1 Capacitor Bank to Energy Cell - Based On Power Storage Exchanges will give you total energy storage equal to or greater than the total storage of all capacitor banks exchanged based on the following values: 1 capacitor bank holds 5,000,000 RF Hardened Energy Cells hold 2,000,000 RF Redstone Energy Cells hold 10,000,000 RF Enderfaces will be exchanged for 6 diamonds. If you find that any trade is missing, please comment on this post and it will be added. I think I've covered everything.
Primarily conduits... just one individual conduit can use as much as 5% of CPU resources... randomly. There's no rhyme or reason as to what makes them lag... poorly written code. Path will be able to explain better.
I should have the NPC ready tonight. Once I get my client back up I'm heading to set it up. I'll post back here and broadcast a message when it's done.
NPCs are now available at the market to buy back your Ender IO supplies. The shop is located on the south side of the market.
Dimensional transceivers will have to be manually exchanged... for some reason you can't put them in the slot... I think they retain NBT data when broken (will have to confirm). I will be on here in a few to do some exchanges... otherwise contact any moderator. 1 dimensional transciever will be exchanged for one tesseract.
Ugh, my base runs off of Ender IO ._. Looks like I'll have to do what I didn't want to this update and start using AE heavily... Do we still have that extracells mod? EDIT: so 2 capacitor banks = 1 redstone energy cell?
