00:03 <Cepheid> Heh.  I sort of figured that's where you've been for the last while.

00:15 <ADragonDreaming> Oh.

00:15 <ADragonDreaming> My capacitor bank holds 5.525 billion RF.

00:16 <Cepheid> I have an accumulator array in Factorio that holds something like 30GJ of energy.

00:17 <Cepheid> ... I was worried about this potential issue..

00:17 <ADragonDreaming> Hm?

00:18 <Cepheid> I'm trying to set up a development environment for my class project.

00:18 <Cepheid> It'd go a lot better if my PC didn't spazz out when I install Linux on it.  Though I suspect that it may be entirely a hard drive issue, now.

00:18 <Cepheid> Alas, I have no way to confirm.

00:18 <ADragonDreaming> That's annoying

00:19 <Cepheid> Mmhmm.

00:20 * Schism makes one circuit board by hand. "Gah."

00:20 <ADragonDreaming> what game?

00:20 <Schism> I require more sand... Factorio, SeaBlock.

00:21 <ADragonDreaming> ah

00:22 * Filly_Nightmares eees at Schism

00:22 * Filly_Nightmares wants foods!

00:22 <Cepheid> ... No, I stand corrected.  There is a solution.

00:23 <Cepheid> But first, let's see if this drive is still good.

00:23 * Thelema5 sips a nice local applejack while listening to Into another

00:23 <Cepheid> Looks like it still functions.

00:24 * Schism provides Filly_Nightmares with a reuben sandwich the size of her head!

00:25 <Cepheid> How is Seablock, Schism?

00:25 <Cepheid> I assume it needs work.

00:26 <Schism> I dunno.  Interesting so far; I haven't gotten far enough in to judge.

00:26 <Cepheid> I've been toying with trying to implement 3-rail electric trains.

00:27 <Cepheid> Oh good, I wrote to the right drive there.

00:27 *** Quits: Double (double@Pony-20c.bks.84.84.IP) (Connection closed)

00:31 <Cepheid> I found an old USB enclosure with a drive in it, and support for USB 3.0

00:31 <Cepheid> So I hooked it up. o3o

00:32 <Cepheid> If it is the drive causing the issues in my PC, then using this should work.

00:32 <Schism> With fortune...!

00:39 *** Joins: The_Nostalgia_Mare (Nossy@Pony-o73sar.fl.comcast.net)

00:39 <Cepheid> Hey lookit that, it worked.

00:40 <Schism> Hmmm... basic chemistry.  That seems a sane choice.

00:41 <Cepheid> Just wish I knew if I had this device hooked up to USB3 or not..

00:41 <Cepheid> Ah, I do not.

00:42 <Cepheid> Those are further down.

00:46 <Cepheid> Definitely the drive.  The USB3 connected drive is performing much, much better than the internal drive.

00:46 <Cepheid> I think it may have failed somewhere along the line and I never noticed it.

00:46 <Schism> Tis the season for hard drive failures, I guess.

00:46 <Cepheid> Tell the EFI to boot from the USB drive if it happens to see it..

00:51 <ADragonDreaming> hmm...

00:52 <ADragonDreaming> 20 pages of output for the void resource miner

00:52 <ADragonDreaming> 2 items per page. 40 possible items.

00:52 <ADragonDreaming> That'll be 10 quartered-drawers.

00:56 * Ali kerflops on ADragonDreaming

00:57 * ADragonDreaming tucks Ali in.

00:57 <Schism> Right... automation before basic chemistry.

00:57 * Schism sneezes repeatedly.

00:57 * Ali nuu's as she's not ready for sleeps

00:59 * ADragonDreaming puts on poni

00:59 <Schism> Shall have more electrolyzers soon - that'll help greatly in the production of crushed stone.  @_@

01:02 <ADragonDreaming> Where did I put my laser wrench

01:10 * Schism looks around. "Tiny island still..."

01:11 * Cepheid wonders why he is trying to play a game on his PC, when all four cores are maxed out in the midst of building a qemu MINIX 3 image.

01:15 <Cepheid> Just wish it didn't do a complete build of LLVM and clang, with all the bells and whistles enabled.

01:15 <Cepheid> I don't need SPARC or ARM building.

01:16 <Schism> Gluh.  Soon I'm going to have enough space to move all these turbines off the island.  I think.

01:18 <Cepheid> At least once it's done, the build only takes a minute and a half after that.

01:27 <ADragonDreaming> because you are bored.

01:27 <Cepheid> I wonder if this would boot on my laptop under it's current configuration, so I can take it with me to school.

01:29 <Cepheid> I think I'd have to move it to a flash drive, though.  Carrying a platter drive around is just asking for trouble.  Let's see what USB3 devices there are out there..

01:42 <ADragonDreaming> 56 structure blocks, 52 machine base, 8 modifier cores or modifiers, 4 laser cores, the lens, and the controller.

01:45 <Cepheid> All done building.  *Tests* ... Much better.  Boots up in 3 seconds.

01:48 <Schism> Almost finished moving all the wind turbines off to their own little island.  ._.

01:49 <Schism> It takes a disgusting amount of resources to make a decent island.  I guess that's kind of the point, though.

01:49 <ADragonDreaming> This is true of real life, as well.

01:50 <ADragonDreaming> See - the disgusting amount of resources put into man-made islands in Dubai

01:50 <Schism> Very true.

01:51 <ADragonDreaming> In other news, I have a tier 3 void resource miner.

01:54 <Schism> Nice!

02:12 <Cepheid> Awesome, it worked.

02:13 <Cepheid> Sort of.  It didn't like trying to start up X from the get go.

02:13 <ADragonDreaming> que?

02:13 <Cepheid> I got my linux install on my PC working by using external USB drive.

02:13 <Cepheid> I wanted to see if said install would boot on my laptop.

02:13 <Cepheid> It does.  Just needs video drivers for X.

02:13 <ADragonDreaming> ah

02:17 <Cepheid> Only other thing I need to set up would be wifi for it.

02:17 <Cepheid> And then maybe find a USB key to move everything over, as carrying a platter drive is asking for trouble.

02:18 * ADragonDreaming ponders initial "push button, kill wither" option

02:20 <ADragonDreaming> See I'd like to just automate the whole-sale slaughter of them but it turns out I need ... minimum nine nether stars to get to that level.

02:23 <Cepheid> In Factorio, I am debating enclosing a biter base with a bunch of turrets around it.

02:24 <Cepheid> Pet biter base.

02:25 <ADragonDreaming> evolution factor booster.

02:25 <Cepheid> It's already maxed out.

02:25 <ADragonDreaming> ah.

02:26 <Cepheid> Behemoth biters are nothing at this point.

02:26 * ADragonDreaming queues up another stack of vibrant capacitors

02:32 <Schism> Problem with this mod -- everything comes in big stacks. going properly, there's no way to really functionally automate.

02:32 <Schism> Until I get things going properly*

02:37 <PonyZx> Hi c:

02:38 <Schism> Game gives a bunch of free wind turbines, which is great, but they... don't produce much electricity.

02:38 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> Schism, Smash Hype Train?

02:38 * Cepheid smashes the nearest hype train.

02:39 <ADragonDreaming> so, it turns out that 64 capacitors is exactly correct for two levels of my tower.

02:39 <ADragonDreaming> This pleases me.

02:40 <Schism> 120 of these produce about... 1.4MW.  This is not exactly a lot.

02:44 * ADragonDreaming ponders what RF translates to in terms of MW or GJ

02:59 <Schism> Mechanical refining, that is, which will let me split ores apart.

03:03 <Schism> ...!  Washing?  This looks useful.

03:06 <Cepheid> Hum, this USB key is only USB 2.0

03:21 <Cepheid> Heh, I like that secondary base name.  It was mentioned by Rifty.  "My skin is burning, and it ain't the sun."  It's a reference to how I pretty much nuked the entire area clean of biters.

03:21 <ADragonDreaming> what base name?

03:21 <Cepheid> The name of the base is that line in the quotes.

04:37 <ADragonDreaming> Nah.

04:37 <ADragonDreaming> I moved the receptacle to the other side of the portal construct.

04:37 <ADragonDreaming> I've since farmed 9 nether stars.

04:38 <ADragonDreaming> This will allow for the creation of wyvern fusion injectors, which are necessary for awakened draconium - though I'll additionally need to go kill the ender dragon.

05:48 <Cepheid> I have encased a biter base.  And then freakin' paved over it as the final insult.  150+ bots lost their lives for that.

05:48 <Schism> It's a rainbow of blood and gore.

05:49 <Cepheid> It's even got a radar so I can look at it at any time.

05:52 <Schism> Oooh... how do you piss off every veteran in the United States?

06:37 <Cepheid> So the petting zoo biters are incapable of breaching the wall.  None of the turrets are damaged, none of the walls are damaged.  They die before they even get close.

06:47 <Cepheid> So, north of the main base is... *Does some math*

06:49 <Cepheid> At least 8,640 accumulators.

06:50 <Cepheid> Final tally:  10,240 accumulators, for a total charge of..

06:50 <Cepheid> 51.2 gigajoules.

06:51 <Cepheid> Enough to last my base a full game day.

06:57 <Cepheid> !mail ConfusionRift So uh, I may have paved over a large area of the base.  Oh, and removed a lot of walls, turrets and other unecessary cruft.  Might be time to refactor the base, spread stuff out.  And leave the petting zoo alone.

06:57 <DerpyBot> Thank you for using the Derpy Mail Service 6_9

07:00 <Cepheid> Knowing my luck, at some point those biters will somehow impossibly get through the wall, and then I'll have a Jurassic Park moment.  For all of 15 minutes, because they'll hit the other wall and die horribly anyways.

07:04 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, I haven't been on in a while. Work and things.

07:04 <Cepheid> Nah, that's fine.

07:04 <Cepheid> Neither have I. :P

07:05 <Cepheid> Basically, I expanded power storage by another 20GJ, paved over some massive areas, removed a lot of constricting walls..

07:05 <Cepheid> And the petting zoo is a small biter base paved over and walled, with laser turrets all around. :P

07:05 <ConfusionRift> hEHEHE.

07:06 <ConfusionRift> I was gonna suggest to at least expand the bots to the walls. That way, they're constantly in auto-repair.

07:06 <Cepheid> 150 bots lost their lives for paving it over.

07:06 <Cepheid> Yeah, a lot of the wall along the major attack points are covered now.

07:06 <Cepheid> Still a few gaps here and there.  I'll work it out.

07:07 <Cepheid> I kind of want to pave the entire region that I have walled off at some point, so...

07:07 <ConfusionRift> beep-beep-beep...

07:09 <ConfusionRift> We can expand immensely. :P

07:09 <Cepheid> I'll do it when yer not on to save you from the beep-beep.

07:09 <ConfusionRift> It doesn't annoy me much, really.

07:10 <ConfusionRift> I find the red alerts more annoying... and alarming.

07:10 <Cepheid> Heh.

07:11 <ConfusionRift> Doesn't help when someone goes on a solo raid. :P

07:11 <Cepheid> The base is mostly fine.

07:11 <Cepheid> Even if they manage to poke a hole or destroy a turret, the way the defenses are set up, there won't be any real failures unless they destroy at least two substations far apart from each other.

07:12 <Cepheid> And since they're far away from the walls, they don't get targeted.  The laser turrets just keep on shooting, even if one dies.

07:13 <The_Nostalgia_Mare> God I hate daylight savings time.

07:13 * ConfusionRift slow nods.

07:13 <Cepheid> Oh yeah, that happened, didn't it?

07:13 <Cepheid> Lost an hour of time.

07:13 <iandalton> I don't dislike it

07:13 <ConfusionRift> About to for me.

07:14 <ADragonDreaming> oh. no wonder it's 3 am.

07:14 <iandalton> two short inconveniences in a year and it makes half the year better than it would be without it

07:15 <ADragonDreaming> frankly I'd be fine with just leaving it at current time zone.

07:15 <ADragonDreaming> Mas dislike for after fall back when sunset is suddenly 5:30 >:|

07:16 <iandalton> The fall reset was a welcome adjustment for me this year

07:16 <iandalton> I was going to work really early in the morning and it gave me more light

07:17 <Cepheid> Last I recall, the time change is causing more trouble than it's solving, now.

07:17 <iandalton> Every time change, lots of people complain and a bunch of articles are published, but I haven't seen anything to make me think it actually does more harm than good. It seems like it's the opposite.

07:19 <ConfusionRift> It always has. Not everyone uses self-updating clocks, so many lose an hour. Not to mention the many times disruption due to sudden time change. Guh. I don't like it.

07:19 <Cepheid> Less the clocks and more software issues.

07:19 <ConfusionRift> Those toooooo.

07:19 <Cepheid> As a developer, I would have to take into consideration DST.

07:20 <Cepheid> Otherwise, mission-critical hardware might spaz when it notices the time going from 2 AM to 3 AM in less than a second.

07:20 <ConfusionRift> Oh... oooooohhh! Overnighters lose an hour! Pah!

07:22 <iandalton> You know, the Japanese had an interesting system of timekeeping. Day and night each had 12 hours. So the daytime hours would be longer or shorter than the nighttime hours depending on the time of year. They developed mechanical clocks that could tell time properly throughout the year.

07:24 <Cepheid> Anyhoo, it's moot to me.  Aside from the fact that on Monday I have to wake up early, so..

07:25 * DashedRainbows barks at ConfusionRift and licks

07:25 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift:  The biggest issue on the server is that the game constantly reports a non-stop attack now.

07:25 <Cepheid> Fortunately, it's only pointing out that turrets are fighting, not that they are getting damaged.

07:25 <ConfusionRift> o_)

07:26 <Cepheid> The cause is the petting zoo.  I placed the turrets and walls close enough to keep the bugs spawning endlessly.

07:26 <Cepheid> Basically, every time you go to look at it, you'll see a mountain of corpses.

07:26 <ConfusionRift> Oooh, we're at that tear nonw.

07:26 <ConfusionRift> We need them artifacts?

07:27 <Cepheid> Artifacts were removed several versions ago.

07:27 <Cepheid> No, I just felt like torturing some bugs.

07:27 <ConfusionRift> Hehehe. :P

07:30 <Cepheid> Next changes will be to disassemble Utica base.  It no longer serves a purpose.  After that, route the oil that was fueling Utica down to the main base to help with supply.

07:30 <Cepheid> Then get uranium up in My Skin Is Burning.

07:30 <ConfusionRift> :P

07:31 <ConfusionRift> We can use the refineries there, recycle and such.

07:31 <Cepheid> That's the plan.

07:32 <ConfusionRift> We got a lake at Albatross as well, might help.

07:32 <Cepheid> Heh.  In any case, all of this will have to be done tomorrow or Monday, I need to get some sleep.

07:33 <Cepheid> I've been working at other stuff for almost the entire day now, and now that I finally got it working, along with some gaming in, I'd like to go to sleep.

07:33 <Cepheid> Especially as I have to pick up a new phone tomorrow.  Broke my old one.

07:33 <ConfusionRift> Hah, I see.

07:33 <ConfusionRift> My days off start tomorrow, so there's that. :P

07:34 <Cepheid> When are your days off, anyways?  Seems like it's Sunday-Monday, and then you work Tuesday-Saturday.

07:35 <ConfusionRift> My set day is Wednesday, every other day is open, so I'm just getting lucky with the successive days off.

07:36 <Cepheid> Ah, fun.

07:37 <Cepheid> In any case, I'll see all of you tomorrow.  I'ma head off now.  Take care, and Rifty?  DON'T LET THE BITERS OUT.

07:37 <ConfusionRift> Last week, it was Wednesday to Thursday. This week, Monday to Wednesday. Two weeks ago, Sunday, Wednesday and Friday.

07:37 <Cepheid> We don't need a Jurassic Park.

07:37 <ConfusionRift> I won't. I don't even have the keys to the cage. :P

07:37 <ConfusionRift> ...can I have a copy?

07:38 <ConfusionRift> ...no? Okay... See ya laters, and have a good one, Cepheid. :P

07:38 <Cepheid> There are no keys.  There aren't even any doors.

07:38 <Cepheid> The biters are just completely walled in.  3 layers, then a layer of turrets.

07:39 <Cepheid> They can't get out unless someone disassembles it. :P

07:39 <ConfusionRift> I would neeeever do that, not even by aaaaccideeeent.

17:39 <Cepheid> So, I got a question that I just thought of due to my old phone.

17:40 <Cepheid> So, here's the issue.  I dropped my phone quite a few times, from various heights, even up to nearly 6 feet(In front of my face, I've dropped it a few times.)

17:40 <Cepheid> I've never damaged it this way.  Ever.

17:40 <Cepheid> Not a crack.  No screen protector either.

17:40 <Cepheid> Not a single scratch on the screen either.

17:41 <Cepheid> It took me, to break the screen on that phone, throwing it at a truck as it was driving away and causing it to slam against the ground.

17:41 <Cepheid> What the HELL are people doing to their phones to have broken screens everywhere I look?

17:42 <Cepheid> I don't even have one of those phone protecting cases.

17:43 <Cepheid> The worst damage on it was me toying with the charger cover.  I eventually toyed with it so much that it fell off.

17:55 * Cepheid sits atop Schism.

17:56 <Cepheid> Alas, my phone is dead.  It powered up because there was a charge left in the battery.  The power line to the charging system is gone, so I can't charge the battery or power the device.

17:56 <Cepheid> ...

17:56 * Cepheid gets a screwdriver set! o3o

18:08 <Cepheid> So, I just did that GraphicsFuzz Test twice on my laptop.  Once before update, once after.  Before, 14/15 tests passed.  After, 11/15 passed.  Hell of a regression there, Intel.

18:15 * ADragonDreaming headdesks

18:15 <ADragonDreaming> simple solutions occassionally escape me.

18:15 <Schism> As they do us all.

18:16 * Schism pats Adra, and offers a banana-raisin-carrot muffin.

18:16 <ADragonDreaming> Cepheid: what model phone?

18:16 <Cepheid> Which one?  Old or new phone?

18:17 <ADragonDreaming> The one what took stupid force to break.

18:17 <Cepheid> Samsung Galaxy S4.

18:17 <Cepheid> Oh, wait.

18:17 <Cepheid> S5.

18:18 <Cepheid> The SM-G900W8, specifically.

18:18 <ADragonDreaming> it took that to break because that is a samsung smart PHONE, as opposed to unholy combination of phone and tablet, and also because it was not made by apple

18:18 <ADragonDreaming> Most of the phones I see with broken screens are apple phones.

18:19 <Cepheid> I've seen every brand of phone.

18:19 <Cepheid> I haven't seen a single phone at school other than mine that wasn't broken.

18:19 <Cepheid> And trust me, it's easy for me to check.  People are oblivious to their surroundings, I can walk up behind them and read from behind their shoulder if I felt like it.

18:19 <ADragonDreaming> ANYWAY the problem I was facing is as follows: "I need to drop a book and an enchanted item in the same block space, then shoot a laser at them."

18:20 <Cepheid> Built blocks, or items?

18:20 <ADragonDreaming> So I was wracking my head around circuits, trying to figure out how to, in Minecraft logic, pulse twice, then pulse once elsewhere, then stop.

18:20 <ADragonDreaming> and then it hit me:

18:20 <ADragonDreaming> Use two droppers.

18:21 <Cepheid> Yeah, I was gonna say.

18:21 <ADragonDreaming> basically I'm creating a semi-automated enchantment duplicator.

18:22 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'm still toying with the idea of a three-rail electric train system.

18:22 <Cepheid> It'd require a bit of work, though.

18:22 *** Joins: Personifire (Tilde@Pony-1ue172.res.rr.com)

18:23 <Cepheid> I'd have to get the bounding box of the train, then use that to grab the tiles/objects/entities underneath the train, and check to see if they match a certain naming convention(Electric rails).  Then check to see if it's receiving power, etc.

18:23 <Cepheid> Honestly it'd probably be easier to create a new energy system and just use that.

19:07 <Cepheid> It was removed due to my allergies.

19:08 <Cepheid> Replaced with a weird sort of hardwood flooring.  Very nice, actually, but yeah.  It just collects fur and dander like no tomorrow.

19:09 <ADragonDreaming> Here are some words to describe it: covered, plastered, inundated, buried, overrun, coated, copious, abundant, exorbitant, crawling with

20:05 <ADragonDreaming> HUZZAH!

20:05 <ADragonDreaming> I done did it

20:06 <ADragonDreaming> It's a monstrosity of cabling and some funky logic but the system will now only drop if an enchanted item is in the one dropper, and then only fire if there are two items in the target space, and one is a book.

20:07 <ADragonDreaming> Integrated Dynamics is essentially a graphical programming mod.

20:08 <Cepheid> I wonder if these ports on the front of my case are hooked up to USB 2.0 or USB 3.0...

20:08 <ADragonDreaming> You would probably enjoy using it, Cepheid.

20:08 <Cepheid> Heh.

20:10 <ADragonDreaming> Readers output multiple variables depending on type. Inventory reader, for example, will read if inventory is full, or empty, or halfway; also reads total item count, slot count, item in chosen slot, amount in chosen slot, etc.

20:11 <ADragonDreaming> also outputs a full list of everything within. Entity reader, rather similar, but with entities in the block space it faces.

20:13 <ADragonDreaming> store the outputs to variable cards, use a logic programmer to apply operators to those variables. Like getting the first entity in a list, outputting the name of that entity, and returning a boolean comparator to see if matches a pre-determined value ... and you can use any boolean value to determine if a redstone writer should output a redstone s

20:13 <ADragonDreaming> ignal or no.

20:13 <ADragonDreaming> Of course it also includes OpenComputers which can probably do all that stuff with ingame lua scripts buuuuuut I don't know lua.

20:18 <Cepheid> The answer to my question apparently is "It's USB 2.0"  There's a connector on the motherboard for front-panel USB 3.0.  It's 20-1 pin, compared to the 10-1 pin for the USB 2.0, which the front panel seems to use.

20:19 <Cepheid> Only reason I bring this up is because the USB3 ports on the motherboard are on the back panel.  Makes it a bit hard to plug in a USB3 device.

20:20 <Cepheid> http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=48_794_795&item_id=048829 I'd need something like this for front-panel access.

21:09 <Saerydoth> just gotta stand in the right place at the right time and shoot an arrow

21:09 <Saerydoth> I just need 2 more horns from each and I think I'm done with those

21:10 <Saerydoth> star fragments are the most annoying part, you just have to stand on towers all night and wait

21:11 <ADragonDreaming> WAHEY!

21:12 <ADragonDreaming> succesfully automated enchantment duplication

21:12 <ADragonDreaming> that said I've not yet automated the botania mana enchanter.

21:13 <ADragonDreaming> Saerydoth is play Breath of the Wild.

21:13 <ADragonDreaming> Let me give you tip, Saery!

21:13 * Saerydoth nods

21:13 <ADragonDreaming> For star fragments, hunt max-tier lynels.

21:13 <Saerydoth> I don't think I'm gonna worry about upgrading the cosmetic gear from the other games

21:14 <Saerydoth> I've got my wild set up to 3 and everything else that's relevant up to 4

21:14 <Saerydoth> yeah I have been

21:14 <Saerydoth> lynels are boring

21:14 <ADragonDreaming> they have a chance to drop them.

21:14 <Saerydoth> I've gotten a couple that way

21:14 <Saerydoth> I thought those were so hard at first, then I realized they only have 3 moves.  Fireballs you run away from.  Everything else you just dodge/flurry rush

21:14 <Saerydoth> I don't remember the last time one acutally hit me

21:15 <ADragonDreaming> It takes a bit to learn them.

21:15 <Saerydoth> I learned on the red one, took me a minute or two.  Annihilated a blue one.  Annihilated at white one.  Found a silver one, then was like "that's it?"

21:15 <ADragonDreaming> I assume you've also learned the spear and club patterns.

21:15 <Saerydoth> fought a silver one with 3 skeletons around me and still easily beat it

21:16 <ADragonDreaming> They are somewhat trickier.

21:16 <Saerydoth> they're the same, just a different animation

21:16 <ADragonDreaming> But still doable.

21:16 <Saerydoth> spear you just dodge to the side instead of back

21:16 <Saerydoth> the big 2H you still dodge the same way for the most part, you just go to the side if he holds it over his head

21:16 <ADragonDreaming> That statement is incorrect in the strictest sense of the word.

21:16 <Saerydoth> I mean they have more reach so I guess there's less margin for error but if you trigger perfect dodge every time it doesn't matter

21:16 <ADragonDreaming> They are not the same with different animations, they require learning new patterns.

21:17 <ADragonDreaming> Sword-lynel does not have a 360 spin.

21:17 <Saerydoth> ah that's true, you can still dodge it though

21:17 * Saerydoth hasn't seen a gold one, is guessing those are only in master mode

21:17 <ADragonDreaming> Yes.

21:17 <Saerydoth> doubt I will play that

21:25 <Cepheid> Gold Monsters are a pain to take out, yes.

21:30 <Cepheid> Why do I get the feeling I'm alone on this island?

21:30 <Cepheid> Which, for no reason at all, I've decided to call Australia.

21:30 * Saerydoth has the fully upgraded master sword, supposes that does make things easier

21:31 <Cepheid> Master Mode is easier if you can do that, yes.

21:31 <Cepheid> The keyword being "if"

21:31 <Saerydoth> I'm not gonna do master mode

21:31 <Cepheid> The strengthened monsters and regenerative health make the Trials hard.

21:31 <Saerydoth> trial of the sword was freaking insane, nearly impossible actually

21:31 * Saerydoth supposes 95% of the people who play the game wouldn't be able to complete it even on normal let alone master

21:31 <Saerydoth> it's not for casual players at all

21:32 <Saerydoth> That last level was beyond insane, it would've been impossible if I hadn't saved 2 ancient arrows

21:32 <Saerydoth> the lynel could 1-shot me from the other side of the room

21:33 <Saerydoth> I had to glide over and get him with an ancient arrow while avoiding that damn guardian turret, then climbed up and killed the turret (those at least are easy if you get close)

21:33 <Saerydoth> then I used the other ancient arrow to take out the flying one

21:33 <Saerydoth> then it was just a matter of killing 32847392748329 bokoblins

21:35 <Cepheid> Yeah, on Master Mode, as it is, I have trouble passing even the first room.

21:37 <Cepheid> I think you are exaggerating a tad.

21:38 <Saerydoth> master mode, I don't think I am rofl

21:38 <ADragonDreaming> But yeah, that final bit, key is to save an ancient arrow and slaughter that lynel with it.

21:38 <Saerydoth> in reality it's probably a couple hundred most

21:38 <Cepheid> The trials, sure.

21:38 <Saerydoth> that's what I mean

21:38 <Saerydoth> the trials in master mode

21:38 * ADragonDreaming has fully automated duplicating enchanted books.

21:38 <Cepheid> But the actual game?  Given I'm standing outside of the final boss room without having killed any of the blights..

21:38 <Saerydoth> oh no I don't mean beating the game, the game is not that hard

21:39 <Cepheid> True.

21:39 <Saerydoth> the story bosses are easy

21:39 <Cepheid> Though Master Mode definitely makes it hard.

21:39 <Cepheid> And you want to alpha-strike the blights.

21:39 <Saerydoth> alpha strike?

21:39 <Cepheid> Hit them as hard and as fast as you can.

21:39 <Cepheid> Don't even let them fight back.

21:39 <ADragonDreaming> Go whole hog immediately.

21:40 <Schism> Saerydoth, use the magnet to launch a rock into orbit so that it hits the Blight.

21:40 <Cepheid> They may be easy to kill, but their damage output is pretty high on Master Mode.

21:40 <ADragonDreaming> In BotW ... what, slam them with an Ancient Arrow fired from a 5x savage lynel bow?

21:40 * Saerydoth nods, killed quite a few lizalfos in the trials wiht a metal box

21:40 <Cepheid> And you want to keep damage down if you're doing a no-Divine-Beast run.

21:40 <Cepheid> Because Calamity Ganon is then at full strength, and hurting *HIM* is a challenge in itself.

21:41 <Cepheid> I wanted to do something different.

21:41 <Cepheid> In any case, nothing quite like doing loads of damage to Ganon.  Then watching him REGENERATE IT ALL.

21:42 <ADragonDreaming> I begrudge no one their choices to do things differently.

21:42 <Saerydoth> I don't see how you could do a no divine beast run in master mode without running out of weapons to damage him with

21:42 <ADragonDreaming> Part of what I want to see when I eventually pick my second playthrough back up, though, are the differing reactions when you have the master sword.

21:42 <Saerydoth> heck even in normal it's pushing it

21:42 <Cepheid> Saerydoth:  You expand your weapon inventory.

21:42 <Cepheid> A lot

21:42 <ADragonDreaming> Master sword is not predicated on divine beasts.

21:42 <Saerydoth> I mean even with full inventory

21:42 <Cepheid> And then find as many weapons as you can.

21:43 <ADragonDreaming> and in ganon fight, has infinite durability.

21:43 <Saerydoth> when my master sword was on cooldown i went through 4 weapons just to kill a silver lynel

21:43 <Cepheid> It doesn't, ADragonDreaming.

21:43 <Cepheid> It runs out.

21:43 <Saerydoth> oh it does have infinite durability against ganon?  I thought for sure it just had enhanced durability

21:43 <ADragonDreaming> Really? I thought it was infinite against Ganon.

21:43 <Cepheid> Nope.

21:43 <Saerydoth> I don't think it's ever infinite

21:43 <Cepheid> I've run out countless times.

21:43 <Cepheid> You just get an increased number of uses when it's glowing.

21:44 <Saerydoth> even though differen places say the master sword powers up and becomes "unbreakable" against ganon related things, I don't think that's true

21:44 <Cepheid> It's less that it's unbreakable, and more that it's durability increases considerably.

21:44 <Cepheid> Something like 3 or 4 times.

21:44 <ADragonDreaming> it must deal 11,400 damage to break.

21:44 <Saerydoth> yeah I've killed 3 lynels with it before it went on cooldown

21:44 <ADragonDreaming> approximately.

21:44 <Cepheid> I would imagine that when it's fully upgraded, it lasts a VERY long time.

21:45 <Saerydoth> fully upgraded just puts it in the 60 damage glowing status all the time

21:46 <Saerydoth> it doesn't make it any more durable than it is against ganon already

21:46 <Saerydoth> actually fully upgrading it doesn't help one bit in the divine beasts or hyrule castle because it already goes into that state

21:46 <Saerydoth> just helps you out in the world

22:30 <ADragonDreaming> Yes.

22:30 <ADragonDreaming> Specifically, epic bacon.

22:36 <Cepheid> I hope this setup is enough to feed that assembler.

22:36 <ADragonDreaming> Botania has a number of flowers that generate mana from various sources.

22:36 <ADragonDreaming> Endoflames are a starter flower and they generate mana by eating anything that a furnace can burn.

22:37 <Cepheid> This is a slow start, given that I'm not researching the usual stuff.  And what is epic bacon?  Is it Canadian bacon?

22:37 <ADragonDreaming> Gourmaryllis are a mid-tier flower but quite powerful all the same, if a bit tricky to automate.

22:38 <ADragonDreaming> They eat food and generate mana depending on the quality of the food ... but they'll also be all gluttonous and will eat without generating mana if there's food around after the first iteration.

22:39 <ADragonDreaming> Epic bacon is a cooked porkchop, or cooked tofeak, dyed with the rainbow.

23:08 <Cepheid> Next on the list, copper plates.  Got all the iron being processed.

23:10 <Cepheid> Eating away rapidly at that stone, too.

23:24 <Cepheid> ... That biter just EXPLODED for damage.

23:33 <Cepheid> So not only do I have firebreathing spitters, I have kamikaze biters.

23:34 <Schism> Loooovely.

23:35 * Schism peers at the layout. Then groans.

23:35 <Cepheid> I'm going to want AP ammo sooner rather than later.

23:35 <Schism> I'm at that point where I'm tempted to just let this run in AFK for a while to build up resources.

23:42 <Cepheid> Sweet geezus, 1.8M copper there.

23:42 <Cepheid> And that's only what I can see.

23:43 <Cepheid> Uncovered it.  2.2 million.  Plus some oil nearby

23:52 <Schism> Hum.  Wood pellet factory set...

23:53 <Schism> Cepheid: One advantage to some of these mods?  Because it's an infinite-resource one, there's a void you can use to dispose of materials.

23:57 <Cepheid> Not really an issue even in vanilla.

23:57 <Cepheid> Take a wooden box, throw materials you want destroyed into it.  Shoot box.

23:57 <Cepheid> When the box is destroyed, the contents are destroyed with it.
