Crafting table MkIII, Swiftwolf's Rending Gale.

[gunfod]

Hi all, first post so hope this is the right area and the questions have not been already asked, apologies if they have.

I have recently updated my home server from 3.04 to 3.12 and have now updated tekkit to the recommended build of 3.12. Admittedly I only use the server for private use, there are only 3 of us on it at the moment, including my 6 year old daughter who loves it.

The update has totally removed the crafting table 3 which after some research on here has been taken off due to server crashes and general bug problems. I used to get the problem of It freezing when checking a recipe on NEI if I were currently on the crafting table 3. But I just used to check the said recipe before using the table and that was fine. I did seem to be using it less and less as I got used to the recipe's. However my daughter found this invaluable and now she does somewhat struggle using the normal table. I have shown her how to use NEI for the recipe and ghost it onto the table (pressing the ? Mark) but she seems a bit daunted by it all.

Will there ever be the option to put this back in? If you require it only?

Also my Swiftwolf's Rending Gale Ring stopped working, another search and it looks like they now need fuel to work ( redstone, glowstone or a Klein star) its not to much of a problem as we have been quarrying like mad and have a lot of redstone. It does seem to use quite a bit of power now to work though, eats redstones like smarties.

When did they change the ring to need fuel to work?

Sorry for the long post and you probably need a beer now.

Take care all.

The Crafting Table III probably caused performance issues, like Balkon's Weapon mod. It might get re-added tough, like Balkon's Weapon mod. Until then you could set up a station of automatic crafting tables with some basic recipes for your daughter. I know it's not the fastest solution, but it's quite elegant. About Swiftwolf's Rending Gale, I believe the change concerning fuel consumption took place in 3.0.3... I'm not so sure. One charged Klein Star Ein (50 000EMC) will suit you for 3-4 hours of flight (Again, not sure).

Oh and don't worry about posting a wall of text. It's nice to read well written post once in a while. (Only a cup of tea will work better than bear for me )

Hi Wixo, thank you for the reply.

Will look into setting up some automatic crafting tables for my daughter, never even thought of that. Will also get onto crafting a Klien Star Ein as I have only recently set up a condenser,relay and a few mk1 energy collectors.

Think I'll join you in that cup of tea now.

The SWRG was always supposed to need fuel as I recall - it was just an SMP bug that it didn't. I think it was fixed in 3.1.0.
