Any pointers as to what I should change/improve or tips on how to make this better will be appreciated.


Basic intro:

This mod hopes to add a different way of building structures, and adds liquid concrete which solidifies into concrete as well as a few other features.

RecipesSee NEI or other recipe listing mod ingame.

Elevator Instructions

MultiBlock Structure Instructions (needed for crafting things in Thut Concrete)

Current Features:

Thut Concrete:

Concrete - This is the main feature of the Concrete module of this mod.

It provides liquid concrete, which can be poured and hardens to solid concrete.

Liquid Concrete is crafted in the Mixer, Place sand, Gravel and cement in the two rows of slots. Then place a bucket of water in the lone slot. It will consume 3 sand, 4 gravel, 1 cement and 1 bucket of water per 8 buckets of liquid concrete produced. Place a tank in the same slot as the water buckets to extract the liquid concrete.

Water can also be piped in via buildcraft or other pipes to the top of the structure, and concrete can be piped out of the sides or bottom.

Pictures:

Liquid concrete shortly after pouring on flat ground

Partially dried concrete, with some of it painted

a simple rebar structure

pouring concrete into it (spout provided by Thut Tech, poured into the small hole contained by dirt at the top)


Reinforced concrete is mostly dried, some has been painted

Asphalt

Pictures:

poured some liquid asphalt

poured some asphalt, this can also be painted (not shown)

MultiBlock Structures:

Lime Kiln - This burns coal or other furnace fuel and is used to convert calcium carbonate based materials into Lime, A common CaCO3 source is bonemeal.

Dust Furnace - Uses the same fuel as the above, converts stone to dust, dust and lime are used in the recipe for cement.

Mixer - This is currently used to craft liquid concrete, it will also be used to craft asphalt as well, once the prerequisite materials are added.

Thut Tech:
This currently adds Elevators

Elevators:

See the Elevator Instruction link

Thut World:

Adds volcanos and worldgen needed for Thut Concrete.

Volcanos

Actual dynamic, growing Volcanos

Things added by the Core itself:

Tank (name temporary) - currently filled by the mixer, should be fillable by any mod that fills ILiquidContainers.

Spout(name temporary)
right click with the spout on a block to place the liquid from a tank in your inventory.

Download stuff

TODO List:

link as 4 seperate jars rather than keeping all in 1 jar.

get textures/models for the concrete pourer/tank.

Known Bugs:

-Collision on the lift is a bit buggy if you try to approach from below it, works best if you walk level with it.


-Lift is a bit buggy if you try to move through it at more than 5-10 blocks/second, this causes problems when used with MPS, or other mods that make you move really quickly.

How do you install it? With Modloader, Forge, or nothing? Please tell me I hope to do a review of this mod on YouTube.

Never mind
I see that it's forge. I'll post the review of the mod soon. Thanks. My channel is finnthehuman37.

Quote from Wretchedrom

A lot of modding doesn't involve coding. With this mod in particular he only had to add a block and then put effects on it.

Quote from Diablo5843

I work with concrete almost every day so it's great to see concrete and even rebar get some much needed love XD

But how long is it set for the concrete to dry and would it be possible to add an option in the config to change it?

Quote from inkblot777

this looks like a great mod. it would be awesome for builders. can i make a sugestion? maybe reinforced concrete is blast resistant like obsidian. it would give people more of a reason to use it. also, maybe if you added obsidian dust, you could combine if with concrete to make it even stronger. so maybe reinforced concrete with obsidian dust would be resistant to wither bombs, thus giving people a way to protect their items and stuff when a wither is spawned.

Quote from AvengedXtremis1994

It crashed on 1.7.2 recommended and on buil 1029. Yet to try 1028, infact trying right now and crashed
