Backplague Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I want to detect how much energy there is on my MFSU and i found some detectors on NEI. How do these detectors work? Quote

Backplague Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Detectors such as Detector - Storage, Detector - Any, Detector - Empty and Detector - Mob. There are some more. Quote
Backplague Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 I checked the IC2 wiki and it said nothing about them. I just want to know how they work :P Quote

FrogBash Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 The detectors you are talking about are from railcraft.. review its main forum pages for information: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/701990-100-railcraft-202forge-smp/ Quote

Yuriy Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 If the MFSU are not near anything influenced by redstone current, you can et them to emit a redstone signal when full, partially full, empty, etc. Use your favorite color of RP lamp to color code your system and you're good to go. My first (and next) lab has 4 MFSU levels from top to bottom with lights that...ah, I'll jsut go screenshot it...here: http://imgur.com/AQcqg All machines are hooked up in parallel so they can pull from each set of MFSUs and because they drain power and it goes back down, the lights go from green to red as I deplete my available power supply. As for giving you an exact number, sorry mate. Quote
Synthetica Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Ugh, i wished they would have actually detected player and mobs and such :/ You can, with thaumcraft. Quote
FrogBash Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Ugh, i wished they would have actually detected player and mobs and such :/ Thaumcraft has a detector symbol that uses a spider eye. Checkout a Thaumcraft tutorial video- you can make the "ultimate BUD switch" with Thaumcraft. Quote
