It is (or so I think) because 1.8 has made it so when you left click into thin air/entities, it only hits once and then won't continue hitting. A possible temporary fix might be to make it so that trains destroy instantly like when you hit a minecart with a diamond pick?
Ha, I wish that was the case, but as far as I'm aware, it's way more complicated than that.
Is this a viable replacement for minecarts such that I can finally get an automated mining operation going where I can load up a few cargo holds and send them off back to base?
It really depends on your definition. Some have different mining and loading techniques, so I cannot give a simple "yes" or "no". The best solution is to test this mod and decide for yourself whether or not this is what you're looking for.
Also, I'm hoping to release a patch fixing the unbreakable trains and zepplins as well as the invisi-track-builder, but the earliest will be tomorrow.
Is it compatible with these mods called FLAN'S PLANES MOD,VEHICLES MOD AND WW2 GUNS MOD?!?!!
I can definitely confirm that the planes and vehicles mod are compatible (at least as of 1.7.3). Haven't tested WWII guns, but I see no reason why it shouldn't be incompatible.
Changed electric motor's recipe to a different one. In the future, you may want to modify RedPower's configuration which, according to the forum post, includes a way to modify the red alloy's recipe
Several items are excluded from being viewed by mods such as TMI (those being the red signal and the active distillation tower)
Signals got a proper item picture. It (should) no longer display a picture that extends above its item slot
Current caveats:
Old bugs are still intact D:
No mulitplayer support
You cannot break trains (at least in creative, haven't tested in survival)
Attention 1.7.3 players:
If you have not modified TrainConfig.txt, the following items will be changed!
This is due to the fact that the new blocks added in Minecraft have the IDs as the above items. Should you not want the above changes, I recommend you to, using a patched version of 1.7.3, remove the above blocks from your world. Other than that, please report any other bugs, and enjoy! Hopefully in a week an improved version will be released (I admit, this one is kind of rushed).
Right, that would take longer than expected. Right now I have 30 errors to fix. That seems a lot, but it's nothing compared to the initial 78. Anyhow, I'm afraid that the earliest this mod will be released is tomorrow.
I respect your work, and this is a wonderful mod with no real BIG bugs, and I dont mean to be impatient. But when will this be out for 1.8?
Well, MCP for 1.81 was just released, so expect sometimes within 24 hours! :biggrin.gif:

As long as the two recipes do not conflict with each other, it will be futile to make some other item. Remember, while IC users may have some difficulties, there are players who use this mod but not IC.
Simultaneously, it should not take too long to integrate with IC since it's as simple as checking whether IC is loaded or not. Hopefully that will be integrated in the next week or so.
It is possible that the textures for the dust coal are simply coincidental, but it is possible that they are stolen. I do not know what is true and what is not, but let's not judge that. However, we do think about integrating IndustrialCraft's features and blocks to be used in this mod, although first it must be prepared for MC Forge.
As for the trains bugging and ending up sideways... well, that's easier said than fixed, I'm afraid. Eventually we will sort that out.
So I was mistaken before. Until MCP is updated to 1.8, there will be no releases. In the meantime, this is what the newest version, 1.22, will include:
Update to 1.8, obviously

That's about it. If anyone has any more suggestions for minor fixes (so no "locomotives act weird" or "make carts connectible"), post them in this forum. Hopefully I will be able to fix them and release the newest version ASAP.
Please note:
Since ModLoader has been updated to 1.8, an unofficial release will be published ASAP. However, since ModLoaderMP is not updated, either of the following approaches must be taken:
Release the client version only and release the server version one ModLoaderMP is updated
Release both the client and server versions at a later date
I'm looking forward to going with method 1; however, if anyone has an issue with this, please leave your concern in this forum.
Furthermore, as mentioned a few posts ago, I will be fixing the recipe for the motor to a different one, temporarily or otherwise.
I always get a kick when someone says something can't be done... for instance, connecting carts together to make trains. What they really mean is: I can't make it do that. I already knew it wasn't true, due to an accident with a flail (from Balkon's weaponmod), a mine cart, and a chunk of dirt. So then I happened to be browsing the Bukkit site, and lo an behold, I came across this:
Now I bet if you talked to that guy, you could make it compatible with your mod, and you might even learn a thing or two.
Here's the deal for why there are troubles coding connections:
You probably know that vehicles such as locomotives consist of two parts: the part where you sit in, and the rest, which is transparent. Unfortunately, nowhere in the code does it say how much transparent space there actually is before/after the place where you sit, thus you have a 1/4 in chance of properly connecting two carts together without them overlapping each other. This obviously does not happen with minecarts because they are 100% solid and occupy only a 1X1 block, as opposed to a 3X3 / 4X3 for locomotives and other carts.
Furthermore, when you say that "a cart is not moving", you can't actually tell whether it's pointing to the one direction or another (e.g. north or south, east and west). This does not matter with minecarts because they are the same from both directions.
Ergo, if the locomotives and other carts were completely opaque (possible, yet a bad idea) and symmetrical from both the front and the back (artistically and factually improbable), only then would that Bukkit plugin's idea would apply to this situation. But it doesn't.
I think people would be more interested if they were not forced to go such great distances and being situated in a single country (you really can't go any further than the southern US).
I've a small question: when I use Redstone power to move the elevator, the elevator actually goes through me. It works fine if I right click on it. Is this normal?
Oh look, more job offerings that nobody can fulfill because (a) nobody lives in or anywhere near these cities; and (:cool.gif: about 90% of the forum members haven't even started high school.
I'll go ahead and say that I do not agree with this program. I doubt that will actually improve how a child learns and, in fact, if you focus on playing games (yes, games, not educational programs) especially in dark lights, nothing good will come out of this, except for ****-poor vision by the age of 10.

Also, I'm looking for the reason why the trains and zepplins don't break. I can't find anything, but at least minecarts break fine.

Grab the client version here: http://mliib.net/~mc...cial_client.zip
What's new?
Current caveats:
- Old bugs are still intact D:
- No mulitplayer support
- You cannot break trains (at least in creative, haven't tested in survival)
Attention 1.7.3 players:If you have not modified TrainConfig.txt, the following items will be changed!
Oil sands => huge mushroom Petroleum => huge mushroom Distillator => iron bars => glass pane Diesel => pumpkin stem Diesel engine => fence gate Piston => stairs Camshaft => stairsThis is due to the fact that the new blocks added in Minecraft have the IDs as the above items.

So this is my idea of how to change it. Tell me if you think that this is unacceptable.
Rather than having the player just supply iron and coal, the player should supply what he needs to in order to make his project, e.g.:
- If he needs just a 3X3 hole, coal is enough
- If he needs a hole with tracks, additionally supply rail
- If he needs a wooden platform under the tracks, additionally supply wood (1-3)
- If he needs light in the cave, additionally supply glowstone (4 ore or blocks)
- If he needs glass around the cave, additionally supply glass (x12)
I'll come up with a GUI so it makes more sense.0
