[REQUEST] Changing the way Fuel Works
Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2016 9:54 am
How Fuel Currently Works:
you Throw anything with a Fuel Value in a machine and it will Consume that Item and run for a Set amount of time, Depening on the Energy Consumption of the Machine and Fuel Value of the Item.
because the Item gets Consumed, you won't get it back when you Mine the Machine or Stop the Process.
How it could Work:
Every Fuel Item has Durabilty like a Science Pack. it will lose 1 Dura per tick when it is being used. They can be Stacked like everything with Durability (Axes, Ammo, Science Packs).
This would make it Possible to Take the Fuel out again, it will have Lost Durabilty, but Still be usable.
This would also make Abstracter things Possible, for Example a Nuclear Reactor which basically works like the ICĀ² Fission Reactor. (You Put in Rods and Coolant and it will use up the Rods and turn them into Depleted Rods. which then again can be used for Nuclear Weapons on RTGs).
Like with most Things in Modding, i have no idea how to do that.
i tried to see if the Lab Entity or the Science Pack items hold the Secret to Durability, but i found Nothing useful.
so i'm just asking for Help on this Subject or getting some people thinking with this Idea.
