Kmartinator: /* Outdated parts of this article. */

can mining laser break Reinforced Glass ?
Thanks , LightKnight

problems with testing yourself?

== Outdated parts of this article. ==

This part is outdated now.

Mining Normal beam, average power 1250 (80 shots) 3.5 hearts 64 blocks 6 (stone), 24 (dirt)
Low-Focus Very short-range beam, small power 100 (1000 shots) 0.5 hearts 3 blocks 1 (stone), 2 (dirt)
Long-Range High-powered beam, high power 5000 (20 shots) 10 hearts 64 blocks 27 (stone), 128+ (dirt)
Scatter 25 beams, 5x5 square formation, average power per beam 10,000 (10 shots) 2.5 hearts 64 blocks 16 (stone), 16 (dirt)
Explosive The beam explodes upon touching a block 5000 (20 shots) 3.5 hearts 64 blocks 2 (stone), 5 (dirt)
Horizontal The beam will travel perfectly horizontally. Presumed to be similar to mining mode. 1250 (80 shots) 3.5 hearts 64 blocks 6 (stone), 24 (dirt)

* High power says the beam travels 64 blocks, but that it will break 128+ blocks of dirt. Is this a distance discrepancy, or does the beam act in an area wider than 1 block? --[[User:Kmartinator|Kmartinator]] 22:02, 8 March 2012 (CET)

Bronze

2012-01-20T22:05:57Z

Kmartinator: /* Usage */

Bronze is a metal obtained by combining [[Copper]] and [[Tin]]. Both ores must be in [[Dust]] form, and mixed in a crafting grid in proportion 3:1. The resulting Bronze Dust can be smelted into Bronze Ingots.

Bronze has a wide variety of uses: [[Bronze Armor]], [[Wrench|Bronze Wrenches]], [[Bronze Pickaxe|Bronze Tools]] and cheap [[Non-IC Items|Rails]]. It is also one of the ingredients of [[Mixed Metal Ingot]]s.

Tin

2012-01-20T22:05:01Z

Kmartinator:

Tin is the product of smelted [[Tin Ore]] or [[Tin Dust]]. It is a metal used in the creation of [[Tin Can]]s, [[RE Battery|RE Batteries]], [[Fuel Can (Empty)]]s, [[Metal Block]]s, [[Bat-Pack]]s, [[Empty Cell]]s, [[ULV Cable|Ultra-Low Voltage Cable]]s, and can join together [[RE Battery|RE Batteries]] to form the [[Battery Pack]].

It can also be used as a cheap alternative to [[Iron]] to create [[Non-IC Items|Buckets]].

Refined Uranium

Kmartinator:

Refined Uranium is obtained by [[Compressor|compressing]] [[Uranium]] in a [[Compressor]]. It can be further used to create either [[Uranium Cell]]s or [[Near-Depleted Uranium Cell]]s.

QuantumSuit Leggings

2012-01-20T21:47:05Z

Kmartinator: Undo revision 9522 by Samo101 (talk)

{{IC²}}

The QuantumSuit Leggings are a new type of armor introduced in IC². They are extremely powerful, but also extremely expensive, having [[Iridium Plate]]s as one of their components. Charged Leggings allow the user to sprint extremely fast (approximately 3.4 times faster) until discharged. To activate the Quantum-Suit's special abilities, start sprinting.

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Machine|B1=Lapotron Crystal|C1=Machine
|A2=Iridium Plate|B2=|C2=Iridium Plate
|A3=Glowstone Dust|B3=|C3=Glowstone Dust
|Output=Quantum-Leggings
}}

== Recharging ==

The QuantumSuit Leggings, like all other pieces of QuantumSuit, store up to 1 million [[EU]], and can only be recharged in an [[MFS Unit]].

{{Grid/Machine
|Type=MFS Unit
|Top=Quantum-Leggings
}}

== Interaction with Ice ==

Once your shiny new QuantumSuit Leggings have become your favourite method of transportation and you're immune to fall damage thanks to your QuantumSuit Boots, it's time to show Vegeta who's ''really'' over 9000: Create a nice little track of about 10 ice blocks in a row, place yourself at one end, activate your suit and accelerate across the ice. Right at the end, jump and loudly yell '''HAYO!''' as you get closer and closer to the stars!
Note that IndustrialCraft² cannot be held responsible for injuries incurred when jumping into walls and/or mountains as you clearly did not yell '''HAYO!''' loudly enough to shatter the obstacle.

Terraformer Blueprint

2012-01-20T21:46:01Z

Kmartinator: Undo revision 9519 by Samo101 (talk)

(work-in-progress)

These little devices can literally save TERRAbytes of files.[[file:picture_na.png|right|link=]]

You got it? Terrabyte? XD

'''HAYO!'''

But seriously, they really do! A '''single ''TFBP'' is capable of saving whole programs, DNA structures AND your account information'''!

Though '''latter one is of course not used in any way'''.

To program you can even use your WORKBENCH, astonishing, isn't it?

TFBPs control the effect a [[Terraformer]] will have on the surrounding area.

== Empty TFBP ==

* The Empty TFBP is essential for crafting actual Terraforming Blueprints.
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Electronic Circuit
|B2=Advanced Circuit
|A3=Redstone|C3=Redstone
|Output=Tfbp
}}

* Programed TFBPs can also be turned back into an Empty TFBP using a [[Mobile Charger]].
{{Grid/Machine
|Type=Mobile Charger
|Top=Tfbp
|Top-image=Grid_Irrigation.png
|Bottom=RE Battery (Charged)

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Snowball|
|A2=Snowball|B2=Tfbp|C2=Snowball
|B3=Snowball|
|Output=Chilling
}}

* Makes snow and snow blocks appear, freezes water.

== [[Compression|TFBP - Compression]] ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Cobblestone|B1=Stone|C1=Cobblestone
|A2=Stone|B2=Tfbp|C2=Stone
|A3=Cobblestone|B3=Stone|C3=Cobblestone
|Output=Compression}}

* Removes sand and dirt, crushing some into sandstone and cobblestone, then futher crushing them into stone.
'''*EDIT*''' This recipe/item is no longer in IC², but if they include it I will update this page.

== [[Cultivation|TFBP - Cultivation]] ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Seeds
|A2=Seeds|B2=Tfbp|C2=Seeds
|B3=Seeds
|Output=Cultivation
}}

* The Cultivator will replace sand with dirt, dirt into grass and randomly add all kinds of plant life.

== [[Desertification|TFBP - Desertification]] ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Sand
|A2=Sand|B2=Tfbp|C2=Sand
|B3=Sand
|Output=Desertification
}}

* The Desertificator will melt ice/snow, destroy plants, and replace dirt with sand.
'''Warning! Will set forest fires!'''

== [[Flatificator|TFBP - Flatificator]] ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Dirt
|A2=Dirt|B2=Tfbp|C2=Dirt
|B3=Dirt
|Output=Flatificator
}}

* Removes all natural blocks (except stone) from the layers above the Terraformer. Also fills in the surface layers below the Terraformer with dirt.

== [[Irrigation|TFBP - Irrigation]] ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=Water Bucket|C1=
|A2=Water Bucket|B2=Tfbp|C2=Water Bucket
|A3=|B3=Water Bucket|C3=
|Output=Irrigation
}}

* Turns sand into dirt and then grass, rarly spawns water on suface areas that are below the Terraformer's layer. Causes saplings, wheat and sugar cane to grow faster, also causes sugar cane to grow higher than its 3 block limit.

{{No SMP|reason=Causes the server mostly to crash}}
Did you ever had loads of time to wait, as well as numerous Energy Crystals to spare, but couldn't get yourself to flatten that giant mountain over there?[[file:picture_na.png|right|link=]]

Don't have nukes at hands, as well?

Now, just use this Flatificator program for the Terraformer. It will fastly '''eradicate all natural blocks ABOVE the height level of the placed terraformer'''.

'''It cannot remove stone or man-made materials''', though.

As well, it will '''fill all areas below the Terraformers height level with simple dirt'''. Means, it can flatificate BOTH WAYS, HAYO!

== Recipe ==

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Dirt

== Energy ==

'''Input:''' Needs a ''minimum'' of 40 [[EU]]/s

== Further Info ==

Flattens an area of 20 by 20 meters, and only works above ground.

These neat little pieces of future technology are the '''commonly used energy storage device''' for all REALLY [[Advanced Machine]]s. [[file:picture_na.png|right|link=|Picture not available]]

Yes, it can even get more advanced then the [[Macerator]]!

However, newly created Energy Crystals ''do not'' contain energy, at all. None. Zero.
Being so super-awesome and advanced, before use they must first be be charged in either an [[MFE Unit]] or [[MFS Unit]]. HAYO!!

The ''Macerator'' is an all purpose grinding machine, capable of breaking down many ores and other items into their base components.

For example, the Macerator grinds down '''one''' [[Tin Ore]] into '''two''' [[Dusts|Tin Dust]], each of which can be smelted into a [[Tin|Tin Ingot]].

Easily '''doubles''' mining profits! hows that for a Hayo-ish tool!?

It uses either a direct [[Cable]] connection or an energy storage item ([[Single-use Battery]] or [[RE Battery]]).

It reduces ore blocks (and {{mp|Clay_Blocks|Clay blocks}}) into 2 [[Dusts]] and {{mp|Coal}} into 1 Coal Dust. It can grind {{mp|Cobblestone}} and {{mp|Sandstone}} into {{mp|Sand}}. It can also convert {{mp|Gravel}} into {{mp|Flint}}.

The Multi-Functional Electric storage unit, or MFE, is a Tier 2 energy storage device. It is able to store up to 600,000 [[EU]], and can accept a maximum current of 128 [[EU|EU/s]] from all 5 input faces combined. It can also emit a current of up to 128 EU/s from its output face.

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a Bronze [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the MFE Unit while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

Note that applying a Redstone signal to the MFE Unit will make it stop emitting power from the output face.

PROTIP: Do NOT use [[Copper Cable]] on the output face.

The Multi-Functional Storage Unit, or MFSU, is a Tier 3 energy storage device. It is able to store up to 10 million [[EU]] (making it capable of powering multiple [[Teleporter|teleportations]], sustaining a [[Field Generator|force field]] for a long time, or directly storing power from a [[Nuclear Reactor]]), and can accept a maximum current of 512 [[EU|EU/t]] from each of the 5 input faces (the faces without dots). It can also emit a current of 512 EU/t from its output face (the face with a dot).

Like all storage units, its output face is marked by a special texture, which usually faces the player when the block is placed. The direction of the output face can be changed by right-clicking with a [[Wrench]] onto any of the input faces of the block; normally, this will point the output face towards the player, but holding Shift while clicking will point the output face in the opposite direction. Be aware that right-clicking the MFSU while pointing at its output face will dismantle it.

Note that applying a Redstone signal to the MFS Unit will make it stop emitting power from the output face until it's full.

PROTIP: Do NOT use [[Gold Cable]] or [[Copper Cable]] on the output face.

I thought to add a word of Warning for everyone.

If you manage to make energy source that excess the 128EU/t rate, be warned, you have to place a LV transformer before any devices you are going to use.

Kmartinator: /* My Setup */

== Heating elements ==
Someone should add in information about the external heating effects of lava and fire, as well as the internal heating effects of lava buckets.

== Nuclear Reactor exploding ==

Main page mentions that Nuclear Reactor has chance of exploding, however it does not mention any clear indication of reactor going to explode nor is it cooling related or not.

It would help alot if there could be found some statistics what is chance of non cooled reactor to explode and how to make cooling that eliminates the chance of unhoped meltdown.

In addition to above [[MFS_Unit]] is very recommended to use to collect power output from Reactor.

{{Reply|user=Feanturi|space=:|agree=reply|reply=Well idk the chance of explosion without water, but with water the chance is 0,0005% per frame (if i mention right)}}

Yeah, I could think something like that.

Also I did notice that without cooling reactor is almost certain to explode with less than one uranium used (4 fuel ingots), so running reactor without cooling is seriously unadviced unless you want to blow that place up.

==Explosion==

I was wondering what the blast of the reactor would be, as in: how many TNT would equal it. Not I'm anxious, but just wondering, as I have never witnessed a nuclear blast.

[[User:Dn5|dn5~]] 21:35, 23 June 2011 (CEST)

{{Reply|user=Feanturi|space=:|agree=nukes/reactors|reply=Nukes and reactors dont got the same explosion like TNT^^ they are "silent" :P}}

== Explosion Mechanics ==
Like nukes and TNT, does being submerged in water stop a reactor's explosion from damaging other blocks?

If so, submerging the reactor serves a dual purpose of preventing the explosion and preventing the damage.

[[User:Werewolf nr|Werewolf nr]] 19:10, 6 July 2011 (CEST)

:Somebody said reactor evaporates nearby water after reaching certain temperature, so it a) would no longer cool it and b) would not stop the explosion --[[User:TakeruDavis|TakeruDavis]] 19:23, 13 October 2011 (CEST)
{{Reply|space=::|user=Feanturi|agree=Changes Water|reply=After reaching a certain temperature, the reactor turns water into lava... so it gets even more heat^^}}
::Once again, I would refer to "somebody said" (... it turns solid blocks into lava), but since I see you are Dev, I have to trust you. Also, havent read (on Nuclear Reactor page itself) about lava being external heat source (even though it naturally would be, game mechanics could have been different...).
:: I wonder about three things... 1)is this created lava collectable by buckets (= is it made of lava source blocks) and 2) does adjaced Ice block (not stack inside reactor) cool the Hull as well or does only water cool it? 3) just to clarify... it does not work with buildcraft pipe systems, does it? cause sadly, I could not connect them to reactor, while macerators, E-furnaces and other stuff was no problem... (3b-any chance you change that? )--[[User:TakeruDavis|TakeruDavis]] 03:20, 14 October 2011 (CEST)
::: One more question, it seems like RedPower mod wirings do succesfully stop Reactor only when it goes directly into Reactor, however it does not work when applied to adjaced chamber. I know compatibility of two different mods is usually least of issues devs need to solve, as nobody can be sure what players actually install and what they dont... still, (after all, both IC and RedPower... and previously mentioned BuildCraft were all in merged into one pack) if you have an idea, why could that be and if there is any solution to that, we would be GLaD. --[[User:TakeruDavis|TakeruDavis]] 15:51, 14 October 2011 (CEST)

== Good reactor setup ==

This setup is class Mark I-O, though it's quite powerful. It uses 2 double Uranium Units, for doubled EU income. At start, it'll heat up to 30 heat units, but after that, stays there FOREVER. Although tested on 3 additional reactor chambers surrounded by water, it should work the same on full 6 reactor chamber generator.
The setup looks like this:
{{Grid/Reactor

: This tutorial was intended to be about "First Steps" and everything before where it says "Second Steps" only needs copper wiring, but people have added and added and added despite prodding not to. Basically IMO from where it says "Second Steps" it should probably be a separate guide. Everything before that uses Insulated Copper cable. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 08:10, 30 December 2011 (CET)

== Deletion of old Tutorial ==

Wow...

First, I disagree with your decision to simply delete the old tutorial.
Second, I disagree with even mentioning that IC2 works well with existing worlds, especially in a tutorial.
Third, when you tell people to go mining, you should make your list of Copper, Iron, Rubber, etc. include the ingredients necessary for the Generator, as the Extractor is completely useless without it and they'll have to go back out to mine again based on your current list.

- I also recommend not having the tutorial reader use a cable to connect the Generator to the Extractor. Just place them side-by-side. 
- Don't mention Industrial Diamonds in a tutorial. 
- It would be good to change it up so that the tutorial recommends upgrading the Furnace to an Iron Furnace right up near the top, then has the player make a Macerator (Resin seems much easier to collect in 1.15 than in 1.00), and then convert the Iron Furnace into a Generator. Use the now functional Macerator to build a new Iron Furnace, then make an Extractor, and possibly continue on to an Electric Furnace. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 11:53, 13 October 2011 (CEST)

None of the images in that article should be there, A) we don't need to see some random person's "pretty house" to learn how to make machines, B) those screenshots are using a custom texture pack, which is confusing and misrepresents the mod, C) the article '''insults the reader''' near the bottom. I admit it's a bit rude to just overwrite it, but you've gotta be kidding me if you honestly don't think it needs some work. (And about crediting the tutorials to single users on the download page, that's appropriate if the links are to user subpages (if you even want to open that can of worms), or if they're offsite, but right now it doesn't make sense in context.)

'''I disagree with even mentioning that IC2 works well with existing worlds, especially in a tutorial.'''
:I never said it "worked well" with existing worlds, please don't put words in my mouth. I said it was ''possible'' to use IC² with an existing world, and that '''if''' you wanted to do so, you needed to take precautions to avoid ruining your world in vanilla. That's more than enough warning, in my opinion.

'''Third, when you tell people to go mining, [...] they'll have to go back out to mine again based on your current list.'''
:You make a good point here. Listing what people need is a naive approach. I think it should either be removed entirely (so readers can figure out their own requirements based on what they want to make) or each section should have all the necessary materials totaled up and prepended to it.

'''Don't mention Industrial Diamonds in a tutorial.'''
:...So does the old one.
:: Might remove that then.

Feanturi:

'''you are not allowed to create pages/your own userpage, because many ppl would just screw up with pages. so they have to ask for get a page created.'''
:I can understand people probably spam on user pages, but they are very useful, people who want to experiment with formatting, templates or revisions can do so on sub pages and stuff. Admins may be the only ones capable of deleting pages outright, but editors share the responsibility of policing content.

'''And if you don't like the layout or functions of this wiki: you are free to never visit this page again.'''
:You seem to be painting me as a bad guy here. I wouldn't have registered an account if I didn't want to help, and moreover, my expressing discontent for lack of (relatively) helpful features shouldn't be taken personally. Citations and external links look a lot cleaner if they're consolidated as a references section. Same with <nowiki><math></nowiki> even though it wouldn't get used nearly as much.

What you're doing and what you want to do seem like they're two different things. MediaWiki is for consensus, community and collaboration! If this site is intended to be simply a reference, or rigid documentation produced solely by the author(s), there are probably better choices of software to support it. [[User:Subignition|-- SubIgnition]] [[User_talk:Subignition|(talk)]] 19:26, 14 October 2011 (CEST)

: I think you're missing the point. A lot of people who came before you (and me) worked on that tutorial. Now, I agree it needs a lot of work. Maybe a complete re-write would be a good thing, BUT I think it's either better to redo sections of the existing tutorial a little at a time (so people can review, etc.) or add your tutorial as an additional tutorial. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 23:02, 14 October 2011 (CEST)
::Okay. I understand the sentiment. In lieu of a subpage, I am going to copy the revision I authored to my userpage, and then it can be discussed and revised from my talk page. I'll add a non-intrusive link to the top of the current page as well, so visitors can compare the two.

== Nuclear Reactor ==

Please let's not put stuff about Nuclear Reactors in a "First Steps" tutorial. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 00:57, 3 November 2011 (CET)

== my 2 bits ==

:first off it is stated that it is useing a tex pack at the top, soartex
:second texpacks dont modify mod textures unless they are build to do it and soartex isnt
:third i agree with not stating nuclear reactor unless its being used to show thats there is a tonne more to this mod
:fourth i do beleve that the extractor should be made first to make the wires cheaper and faster to make
:fifth the wire to the macerator and extractor is a good idea for expansion because the gen may defult to the extractor imstead of the wire
:otherwise the rest is fine with me
:btw it would have been better if you listed the problems instead of making a deal out of it
:and ask to fix it instead of complaining
:p.s i am not aiming to insult anyone with my above opinions

== Arrangement (Generator - Battery - Iron Furnace) ==

Suggesting the arrangement of these to be changed to iron furnace - battery - generator, then electric furnace afterwards as it is now. It just seems really odd that you get the generator recipe and are recommended to use the iron furnace for it. Then you don't know how to make an iron furnace or battery yet, it leads to scrolling up and down over and over. Granted, its not a huge problem, just a possible improvement.

I'd do it, but i feel bad altering huge amounts of the tutorial and rearranging things without permission, it's not exactly a minor edit (sorry if that seems stupid, new to wiki-editing). --[[User:Antaios|Antaios]] 08:32, 8 December 2011 (CET)

This was from before the recipe for the Iron Furnace was changed. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 08:10, 30 December 2011 (CET)

Ok, I just finished spending 2-3 hours breaking everything under "First Steps" into neat little sections by machine. I added a section for the Iron Furnace on top and removed it from the Electro Furnace section. I also added a list of resources you need for each section, with the assumption you're doing everything in the order listed. I think it looks a lot better now and is easier to read. For the Generator I made sure the batteries were made first instead of last. Hopefully this satisfies all of your concerns. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 12:05, 30 December 2011 (CET)

== Raw Materials ==
Here is a list of the total materials needed to possess one of everything on this tutorial, for those (like me) that would like to go out, collect a ton of materials, and then just sit and industrialize in one shot, based on the page as of 12-29-2011.

59 coal

40 cobblestone

238 copper dust

12 diamond

7 dirt

3 flint

30 glowstone dust

227 iron dust

18 lapis lazuli

199 redstone

235 rubber

11 sand

4 seeds

130.75 tin dust

4 water bucket

65 wooden planks

NOTES:
*Most of the copper is used in making copper wires. Since it takes 3 copper to make 6 cables, there may be slightly more copper required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a leftover wire or two.
*Some recipes require empty cells. Since it takes 4 tin to make 16 empty cells, there may be slightly more tin required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a few leftover cells.
*All diamonds can be replaced by Industrial Diamonds at the cost of 64 coal, 4 clay, and 8 flint apiece. To replace all diamonds, the total required materials are 768 coal, 48 clay, and 96 flint.
*No energy or fuel costs are taken into account for any of this production.
*Dusts are listed instead of ingots due to use of bronze ingots, which must be smelted from bronze dust.
*All these numbers were done by hand (I have way too much time on my hands) and as such may not be 100% error-proof.
*Bronze armor has been excluded.
--[[User:Kmartinator|Kmartinator]] 18:07, 29 December 2011 (CET)

:This is cool, but IMO you should base it off the assumption that all Diamonds are mined, rather than all Diamonds being manufactured. People can then choose to manufacture Diamonds if they prefer. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 08:10, 30 December 2011 (CET)

!Rubber Tree
![[Image:Rubber Tree.png|128px]]
|Unique trees which have pine (dark) logs and birch (light) leaves. They are rare to find, but are more common in Swamp biomes, and are easy to find through their unique "wing" on their leaf design. Their wood is special and has resin holes that may be right-clicked on with a [[Treetap]] to get [[Sticky Resin]], extracted to make one piece of [[Rubber]], be crafted into 3 (instead of 4) wooden planks, or be smelted into normal spruce wood. Their leaves have a small chance of dropping a [[Rubber Wood| Rubber Tree]] Sapling.

World generation rate of Rubber Trees depends on biome:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|width=500px|'''Desert''' 0% chance to generate any Rubber Trees per chunk.

Construction Foam

''Construction Foam'' (CF) is a quick and effective construction material for defending against mobs.
Players are able to break the foam before it hardens in no time. However, broken foam cannot be harvested.

After it's placed, it will eventually turn into a solid [[Construction Foam Wall|CF Wall]], which is explosion resistant and [[Painter|paintable]].
With an explosion resistance of 60, it will resist TNT, [[Industrial TNT|ITNT]], and {{mp|Creepers}}, but [[Reinforced Stone]] is a better choice for protecting against things like nuclear reactor explosions and [[Mining Laser|lasers]].

Wall blocks harden at varying rates. Foam hardens at 0.6% per 25 seconds, per light level. Foam placed in total darkness will never solidify.
Right-clicking on foam with a block of sand will cause the foam to harden instantly, but the block of sand will be consumed in the process.

Players, mobs, and animals can walk through foam until it fully hardens (although the risk of suffocation or getting stuck in a new wall is high).

You can spray ''CF'' with the [[CF Sprayer]] too. Place Construction Foam in a [[Compressor]] to create [[CF Pellet|CF Pellets]]. Load the CF Pellets into the CF Sprayer and you're good to go. The sprayer's capacity can be increased with the use of a [[CFPack]].

Currently a single pellet will place a glob of 13 blocks of foam. Using [[Scaffold|scaffolding]] will allow you to arrange those 13 blocks into desired shapes, the most common being a straight line. See the [[CF Sprayer]] page for more details.

:'''I removed this from the main article, it doesn't seem to fit with the clean concise style of this article. I think it would work well if reworked into the [[Wiring]] article. [[User:Mason11987|Mason11987]] 20:22, 9 November 2011 (CET)

=== Text ===
I was sad when I discovered there was no wiring guide when ID2 came out, so Here's one based on my experimenting. Parts may be wrong, but this is all tested info.

Basic wiring requires an energy source (generator, solar panel, etc.), a storage unit (a batbox, a mfe, or a msu), wiring based on the storage unit (batbox=low=32, mfe=medium=128,
msu=high=512), and the machine(s) you are wiring. Cables lose power after a distance, so the most effective way (or my prefered way) to construct any solar generator set-ups is in "solar flowers".

1. place a storage unit at the center of where your making this flower. 2. Using a wrench, you can change the direction the storage unit is taking and delivering energy, so you should dig under the storage unit, and right click it to change the output direction downward, so you can have the input from the the 4 sides and the top, since solar generators need to "see" the sun to get power, they cant be placed under each other. Place up to 4 copper wires out each direction, because after the energy paces 5 cables, 1 energy is lost (assuming the cable is insolated and is copper). This should make a straight line out each side. 3. place 1 cable on each side of the 3rd cableso each row of cables makes a lowercase "t". 4. place the solar panels around the outer side, always touching the cables. If done right, this should now resemble a diagonal square. 5. put generators on top of the cables, to make the most use of the cable space. Lastly, a cable on top of the storage unit allows you to add another solar generator on top of it. 6. Now you need to connect the storage unit to the power in your house. You can use cable to take it to your house, but I would put some storage units every 4 cables to prevent the 5th from losing power. 7. Be aware of the voltage you provide to your home. Most machines require low voltage, and they don't require a constant 32 energy for each tick, they each gulp around 1,2, or 5 energy per tick, but they need a certain amount per function, such as 128 energy to burn something in the electric furnace (not the actual amount, just an example). If you send medium or high voltage power into a machine which requires lower voltage will make the machine and some wiring blow up.

More general tips

The wrench, which is used up after its destroyed, or the electric wrench, which can be recharged at a storage unit, is used to mess with machines in a few ways. It will remove most machines you right click with it, which is better than destroying it cause if you just destroy it instead of remove it, then the machine is destroyed in the process. The other use is it will change the direction of the output for storage units.

The storage units have 1 output slot, the side with the dots, and 5 input slots, where you put the cable to insert energy. Using a wrench on the storage unit does 1 of 2 things, either it will move the output slot to the side you click, or it will remove the machine if you click the output slot. So if you click the storage unit, and it gets reverted into an item, you clicked the output slot.

Different cables hold different amounts of voltage, copper is best for low, gold for medium, and iron for high. However, if your power generators, such as solar panels, are far away from your house, glass fibre cable is best. The higher cables can hold the power from the lower cables, but once the power is higher then the levels (32=low, 128=med 512=high) it is considered the next level up (33=med, 129=high).

When using transformers to change the voltage, it can be frustrating to figure out how they work. You dont need transformers if your combining cables to increase the power inside them, like making a T intersection, but you need transformers to downgrade the energy. You lose the energy is being downgraded. Like storage blocks, using a wrench on transformers will change the input/output directions of the transformer. Unlike storage units, the transformers have 1 input and 5 outputs, and the wrench changes the input.

If you decide to skip transformers, and plug a mfe into a low voltage machine, the wiring and machine will blow up, because there was too much power being brought through. You also cannot get away with just having a copper cable cable coming out, because it can overload too.

Use sand, dirt, or something easy to break, and make some maintenance passages, because I can almost destroy my computer for the amount of coals I burned re walling my place after editing the cable system, adding new lines, new machines, and so on. Tunnels will save alot of time, effort, and resources in the long run.

Because you lose energy over long distances, and fibre cable takes diamonds, I prefer to makes a long system of bat boxes after every 4th cable. The boxes will allow more energy to be held in the system, and you don't lose that 1 energy every 5th cable. But this requires a lot of iron, so if you just want to use the diamond and get the cabling over with...

Lastly, Machines that are set up on the same cables will have to share the power brought through the cable. For example, copper brings in 32 energy, and you have 4 machines set up. The 1st machine takes 7 power, the 2nd takes 8, the 3rd takes 9, and the 4th takes 10. After the 1st, there's 25 power left, after the 2nd there's 17, after the 2rd there's 8, which doesn't leave enough for the 4th. adding a 2nd energy box on the other end would fix this, but beware the price of each machine.

== Deletion of old Tutorial ==

Wow...

First, I disagree with your decision to simply delete the old tutorial.
Second, I disagree with even mentioning that IC2 works well with existing worlds, especially in a tutorial.
Third, when you tell people to go mining, you should make your list of Copper, Iron, Rubber, etc. include the ingredients necessary for the Generator, as the Extractor is completely useless without it and they'll have to go back out to mine again based on your current list.

- I also recommend not having the tutorial reader use a cable to connect the Generator to the Extractor. Just place them side-by-side. 
- Don't mention Industrial Diamonds in a tutorial. 
- It would be good to change it up so that the tutorial recommends upgrading the Furnace to an Iron Furnace right up near the top, then has the player make a Macerator (Resin seems much easier to collect in 1.15 than in 1.00), and then convert the Iron Furnace into a Generator. Use the now functional Macerator to build a new Iron Furnace, then make an Extractor, and possibly continue on to an Electric Furnace. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 11:53, 13 October 2011 (CEST)

I admit it's a bit rude to just overwrite it, but you've gotta be kidding me if you honestly don't think it needs some work. (And about crediting the tutorials to single users on the download page, that's appropriate if the links are to user subpages (if you even want to open that can of worms), or if they're offsite, but right now it doesn't make sense in context.)

'''I disagree with even mentioning that IC2 works well with existing worlds, especially in a tutorial.'''
:I never said it "worked well" with existing worlds, please don't put words in my mouth. I said it was ''possible'' to use IC² with an existing world, and that '''if''' you wanted to do so, you needed to take precautions to avoid ruining your world in vanilla. That's more than enough warning, in my opinion.

'''Third, when you tell people to go mining, [...] they'll have to go back out to mine again based on your current list.'''
:You make a good point here. Listing what people need is a naive approach. I think it should either be removed entirely (so readers can figure out their own requirements based on what they want to make) or each section should have all the necessary materials totaled up and prepended to it.

Hello i just thought that i would post this here. the article tells you to create re batterys, yet it is not possible in the current version. correct me if im wrong.

== Arrangement (Generator - Battery - Iron Furnace) ==

Suggesting the arrangement of these to be changed to iron furnace - battery - generator. then electric furnace afterwards as it is now. It just seems really odd that you get the generator recipe and are recommended to use the iron furnace for it. Then you don't know how to make an iron furnace or battery yet, it leads to scrolling up and down over and over. Granted, its not a huge problem, just a possible improvement.

I'd do it, but i feel bad altering huge amounts of the tutorial and rearranging things without permission, it's not exactly a minor edit (sorry if that seems stupid, new to wiki-editing). --[[User:Antaios|Antaios]] 08:32, 8 December 2011 (CET)

== Raw Materials ==
Here is a list of the total materials needed to possess one of everything on this tutorial, for those (like me) that would like to go out, collect a ton of materials, and then just sit and industrialize in one shot, based on the page as of 12-29-2011.

827 coal

238 copper dust

235 rubber

227 iron dust

199 redstone

130.75 tin dust

99 flint

65 wooden planks

48 clay

34 cobblestone

30 glowstone dust

18 lapis lazuli

11 sand

7 dirt

6 stone

4 seeds

4 water bucket

NOTES:
*Most of the copper is used in making copper wires. Since it takes 3 copper to make 6 cables, there may be slightly more copper required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a leftover wire or two.
*Some recipes require empty cells. Since it takes 4 tin to make 16 empty cells, there may be slightly more tin required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a few leftover cells.
*The astronomical coal requirements assume that all diamonds are manufactured. Using diamonds reduces this item list by 64 coal, 4 clay, and 8 flint per diamond.
*No energy or fuel costs are taken into account for any of this production.
*Dusts are listed instead of ingots due to use of bronze ingots, which must be smelted from bronze dust.
*All these numbers were done by hand (I have way too much time on my hands) and as such may not be 100% error-proof.
*Bronze armor has been excluded.

I admit it's a bit rude to just overwrite it, but you've gotta be kidding me if you honestly don't think it needs some work. (And about crediting the tutorials to single users on the download page, that's appropriate if the links are to user subpages (if you even want to open that can of worms), or if they're offsite, but right now it doesn't make sense in context.)

'''I disagree with even mentioning that IC2 works well with existing worlds, especially in a tutorial.'''
:I never said it "worked well" with existing worlds, please don't put words in my mouth. I said it was ''possible'' to use IC² with an existing world, and that '''if''' you wanted to do so, you needed to take precautions to avoid ruining your world in vanilla. That's more than enough warning, in my opinion.

'''Third, when you tell people to go mining, [...] they'll have to go back out to mine again based on your current list.'''
:You make a good point here. Listing what people need is a naive approach. I think it should either be removed entirely (so readers can figure out their own requirements based on what they want to make) or each section should have all the necessary materials totaled up and prepended to it.

'''Don't mention Industrial Diamonds in a tutorial.'''
:...So does the old one.
:: Might remove that then.

'''you are not allowed to create pages/your own userpage, because many ppl would just screw up with pages. so they have to ask for get a page created.'''
:I can understand people probably spam on user pages, but they are very useful, people who want to experiment with formatting, templates or revisions can do so on sub pages and stuff. Admins may be the only ones capable of deleting pages outright, but editors share the responsibility of policing content.

'''And if you don't like the layout or functions of this wiki: you are free to never visit this page again.'''
:You seem to be painting me as a bad guy here. I wouldn't have registered an account if I didn't want to help, and moreover, my expressing discontent for lack of (relatively) helpful features shouldn't be taken personally. Citations and external links look a lot cleaner if they're consolidated as a references section. Same with <nowiki><math></nowiki> even though it wouldn't get used nearly as much.

What you're doing and what you want to do seem like they're two different things. MediaWiki is for consensus, community and collaboration!

: I think you're missing the point. A lot of people who came before you (and me) worked on that tutorial. Now, I agree it needs a lot of work. Maybe a complete re-write would be a good thing, BUT I think it's either better to redo sections of the existing tutorial a little at a time (so people can review, etc.) or add your tutorial as an additional tutorial. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 23:02, 14 October 2011 (CEST)

== Nuclear Reactor ==

Please let's not put stuff about Nuclear Reactors in a "First Steps" tutorial. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 00:57, 3 November 2011 (CET)

== my 2 bits ==

:first off it is stated that it is useing a tex pack at the top, soartex
:second texpacks dont modify mod textures unless they are build to do it and soartex isnt
:third i agree with not stating nuclear reactor unless its being used to show thats there is a tonne more to this mod
:fourth i do beleve that the extractor should be made first to make the wires cheaper and faster to make
:fifth the wire to the macerator and extractor is a good idea for expansion because the gen may defult to the extractor imstead of the wire
:otherwise the rest is fine with me
:btw it would have been better if you listed the problems instead of making a deal out of it
:and ask to fix it instead of complaining
:p.s i am not aiming to insult anyone with my above opinions
--Zulu 217 07:57, 5 November 2011 (CET)

Hello i just thought that i would post this here. the article tells you to create re batterys, yet it is not possible in the current version. correct me if im wrong.

== Arrangement (Generator - Battery - Iron Furnace) ==

Suggesting the arrangement of these to be changed to iron furnace - battery - generator. then electric furnace afterwards as it is now. It just seems really odd that you get the generator recipe and are recommended to use the iron furnace for it. Then you don't know how to make an iron furnace or battery yet, it leads to scrolling up and down over and over. Granted, its not a huge problem, just a possible improvement.

I'd do it, but i feel bad altering huge amounts of the tutorial and rearranging things without permission, it's not exactly a minor edit (sorry if that seems stupid, new to wiki-editing). --[[User:Antaios|Antaios]] 08:32, 8 December 2011 (CET)

== Raw Materials ==
Here is a list of the total materials needed to possess one of everything on this tutorial, for those (like me) that would like to go out, collect a ton of materials, and then just sit and industrialize in one shot.

827 coal

238 copper dust

235 rubber

227 iron dust

199 redstone

130.75 tin dust

99 flint

65 wooden planks

48 clay

34 cobblestone

30 glowstone dust

18 lapis lazuli

11 sand

7 dirt

6 stone

4 seeds

4 water bucket

NOTES:
*Most of the copper is used in making copper wires. Since it takes 3 copper to make 6 cables, there may be slightly more copper required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a leftover wire or two.
*Some recipes require empty cells. Since it takes 4 tin to make 16 empty cells, there may be slightly more tin required to fulfill the recipe, and thus, a few leftover cells.
*The astronomical coal requirements assume that all diamonds are manufactured. Using diamonds reduces this item list by 64 coal, 4 clay, and 8 flint.
*No energy or fuel costs are taken into account for any of this production.
*Dusts are listed instead of ingots due to use of bronze ingots, which must be smelted from bronze dust.
*All these numbers were done by hand (I have way too much time on my hands) and as such may not be 100% error-proof.
*Bronze armor has been excluded.

== Possible solution for Recycler not processing Wooden Sticks with Buildcraft pipes ==

Maybe the Recycler could be made to accept Wooden Sticks and convert them into an equal number of Wooden Sticks? This would simulate them simply passing through the machine and avoid clogging up Buildcraft pipes. --[[User:Trifler|Trifler]] 03:16, 11 October 2011 (CEST)

Diamond Pipes sorting the sticks out? --[[User:MSSSSM|MSSSSM]] 00:13, 27 October 2011 (CEST)

Just for confirmation... The recycler not processing sticks is NOT a bug, right? The bug is the way buildcraft handles it? I found code in TileEntityRecycler.java explicitly forbidding it, and I'm guessing it's because one can easily convert all their planks to sticks for twice as much recycling. [[User:Masonsbro|Masonsbro]] 03:36, 5 November 2011 (CET)

if there is code made to stop it processing sticks its not a bug its a anti cheat code so ic isnt as easy to cheat at.
--Zulu 217 08:04, 5 November 2011 (CET)

Is there a master list of items that can't be recycled? I know there probably aren't many, but maybe that info should be added to the page? --[[User:Kmartinator|Kmartinator]] 17:53, 28 December 2011 (CET)

== Basics steps in a new world ==

[[file:first_steps1.png |350x350px| link=|left]]
 

Now that you have downloaded and installed the mod and generated a new map, you really don’t know where to begin. Like all other maps you begin in, gather some wood, then some cobblestone and coal and build a little house (or a cave if you wish) for your first night.

[[file:first_steps2.png |350x350px| link=|left]]
 

Here is mine with some flowers. Having a pretty house is always a plus, even if it’s just for you, and I can easily expand it.
Beware of the mobs if you are not playing in Peaceful mode, the creepers can blow up what you built. If you want to, use some torches to light the area.
 

[[file:first_steps3.png |350x350px| link=|right]]
 

Keep in mind you will need a lot of room for your industry. Try to get a good spot with a lot of space not too far away, like that sand plain I can see from my roof (you will also need lots of sand for other purposes).
Don’t forget to add some chests and a bed in your little place.

Nothing new here, but you must begin with a good base if you want to go further. The next part will introduce some new things.
 

== First Ingredients and Machines ==

You now have a little base with four walls, a roof, some chests, a bed, a furnace, and a crafting table, but you want more new stuff. Now, you need to gather rubber. You will need a lot of lumber to build our first machine, and a basic generator: 34 logs precisely. However, you should take more to use as fuel.

 
{|
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Wooden Planks
|A2=Wooden Planks|B2=Wooden Planks|C2=Wooden Planks
|A3=Wooden Planks
|Output=Treetap
}}
|}

Can you smell the fresh air of new toys? Use 5 planks to create a [[Treetap]]. You will need 5 tree taps total, one for extracting [[Sticky Resin]] and four for crafting an [[Extractor]], but wait until later to make the other four to save space.
 

Now, extract 6 [[Sticky Resin]] from the [[Rubber Wood|rubber trees]].

But for now drop that into a chest, and gather torches, pickaxes and food, for you will have to go to the center of the earth! The second thing you must gather is Redstone, that next-to useless red powder you have in astronomical quantity is the base of industrial electricity. Of course, you will need an iron pickaxe to extract it, but you must be really unlucky if you don’t find any on the path. Also, you should mine any [[Copper Ore|Copper]] or [[Tin Ore|Tin]] you see.

[[file:first_steps6.png |500px| link=|center]]

Here is a screenshot of a natural cave where you can see all but three types of ores you can gather, from left to right:

*Gold. Its value is much higher in IC, especially in its dust form. It's involved in many mid-tech machines. You should mine it - it will become more useful in the future

*[[Tin]]. It is required for many things, but it is fairly common.

*[[Copper]]. Like Tin, it is required for most things in IC, such as cables, so you must gather a good stock in the beginning. Like Tin, there's plenty in the world.

*Iron. '''Every''' machine uses Iron, so it will be the ore you must hunt the most. You will be always short of Iron.

*Coal. It's value was increased, so if you want torches or furnace fuel, use Charcoal. Use Coal for other, more important things. [[Dusts|Coal Dust]] is used to build [[Solar Collector|Solar Collectors]], it's a more efficient [[Fuel]], and lots of things like the nano-suit use it. In others worlds, you might not care about Coal, but in IC, its invaluable.

*[[Uranium]]. You will need it to power your future nuclear reactor or to craft a nuke to blow up a mountain. Besides that, they are not involved in other recipes. They are rarer than other ores, but can be found at every layer. You will need an iron pickaxe to gather them.

[[file:first_steps7.png |500px| link=|center]]

Further away in the cave:

*Redstone: Good news: it’s much faster to mine with IC (Alblaka fixed the bug Mojang left); it will not take you ages, like I said in the beginning of that part. The Redstone is involved in most parts of IC crafting, especially the basic ones. We need some for crafting the first part of a machine, and later, other things.

*Diamond: Ha the diamond, everybody runs after them, try to get 3 of them and keep them in a chest, we will craft something awesome with them. You should know we can craft an industrial diamond with coal, I’ll show you later. There is something else to do with them other than waste them in tools or one-use armor.

*not shown here, but you know it: the Lapis-lazuli: Involved in the more advanced machines, you need '''BLOCKS''' of lapis to craft them, so if you find them now, just keep them until you have need of them

-Lava: I know, it’s not a mineable resource, but it’s used to power one of the most powerful generators: the [[Geothermal Generator]]. Keep in mind where are some lava lakes are to go back to later.

-Obsidian: you need some Obsidian for more than one reason: to go in the Nether, because you will need some glowing dust for mid-tech machines. The Obsidian is the only thing that can resist a nuke, keep in mind the nuclear reactor can make a nice hole. And Obsidian is a part of crafting an Industrial Diamond.

You know what you can gather under the surface, continue to collect some resources and go back to your base for the next step.

Now you’re safe at your base, you can smelt some of the ore you gathered from your trip; but be patient and don’t smelt all your ore, soon you will be able to craft an incredible machine: the [[Macerator]], which will give you 2 ore dust from one ore and other stuff I'll explain later.
So, before you build a Macerator, you need an Extractor and a Generator, but to build them, you must craft some Electric circuits, which need some Cables. Yeah, it seems complicated, and it is. That's why I'm writing a little tutorial just for you.
You must smelt 3 copper, then 9 others for a total of 12
After that, smelt 8 Tin to be able to craft 2 [[RE Battery|Rechargeable Batteries]] to use later on.

{{Grid/Furnace
|Input=Iron
|Fuel=Coal
|Output=Refined Iron}}

You will need 27 Iron which you must SMELT AGAIN to create [[Refined Iron]], which is a base of a lot of machines.

You remember the Sticky Resin you kept in the chest? Take it, and your Copper Ingots too. We will create some [[Cable|cables]]. You see it takes 6 Rubber and 3 Copper Ingots for every 6 Cables. Later you will need a large amount of them, but first you want just enough to make an Extractor. Once you have that, you can make Rubber much more efficiently.

Smelt your 6 Sticky Resin in any furnace to get 6 [[Rubber]].

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Rubber|B1=Rubber|C1=Rubber
|A2=Copper|B2=Copper|C2=Copper
|A3=Rubber|B3=Rubber|C3=Rubber
|Output=Insulated Copper Cable|OA=6
|Output-link=Insulated Copper Cable
}}
|}

Prepare one batch of 6 [[Cable|cables]] using the recipe that uses 6 Rubber and 3 Copper Ingots.

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Insulated Copper Cable|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=Insulated Copper Cable
|A2=Redstone|B2=Refined Iron|C2=Redstone
|A3=Insulated Copper Cable|B3=Insulated Copper Cable|C3=Insulated Copper Cable
|Output=Electronic Circuit
}}
|}

Now we will craft our first [[Electronic Circuit]]. You need 6 [[Cable|cables]], 2 Redstone, and one [[Refined Iron]]. Like all other things on that page, it’s the base of the industry, so you'll be using it a lot.

Next we must craft the recipe of all machines: the [[Machine Block]].
Just take 8 [[Refined Iron]] and draw a box with them in the craft interface.

{|
|{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Refined Iron|B1=Refined Iron|C1=Refined Iron
|A2=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron
|A3=Refined Iron|B3=Refined Iron|C3=Refined Iron
|Output=Machine
}}
|}

FINALLY we can craft our first machine, but we need just 4 more [[Treetap|tree taps]], take 20 planks and craft them, after that take the 4 tree taps, a machine and an [[Electronic Circuit]] and '''TADA''' you can plant your [[Extractor]] where you want, but be careful, you can’t remove any machine by hand, it will be destroyed if you do. You will need a [[Wrench|special tool]] made with a [[Bronze|new metal]]. We will see that later.

{|
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Treetap|B1=Machine|C1=Treetap
|A2=Treetap|B2=Electronic Circuit|C2=Treetap
|Output=Extractor
}}
|}

Ok, you have your Extractor, but how does it work? You need '''ELECTRICITY''', made by a '''[[Generator|GENERATOR]]'''. Now you know what we need to make next. There are 2 ways to craft a [[Generator]]:

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=RE Battery|C1=
|A2=|B2=Machine|C2=
|A3=|B3=Furnace|C3=
|linkB3=
|Output=Generator
}}

First, you can use a [[RE Battery]], a [[Machine Block]] and a Furnace (8 Iron needed).

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=RE Battery|C1=
|A2=Refined Iron|B2=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron
|A3=|B3=Iron Furnace|C3=
|linkB2=|linkC2=
|linkB3=
|Output=Generator
}}

Or, you can use a [[RE Battery]], 3 [[Refined Iron]] and an [[Iron Furnace]] (8 Iron needed).

Both recipes cost the same with the second iron furnace recipe (below), but the second recipe requires less smelting. I know you are asking yourself: how do I create an [[RE Battery]] and an [[Iron Furnace]]? For the Iron Furnace we will come back later, and for the battery it's now!!

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=
|A2=Tin|B2=Redstone|C2=Tin
|A3=Tin|B3=Redstone|C3=Tin
|Output=RE Battery
}}
1 Cable, 4 Tin and 2 Redstone. Easy, no?

Time to remember that recipe.

You need to assemble two [[RE Battery|Rechargeable Batteries]]. One is needed to build the Generator, and the second is needed to power your Extractor.

But wait! You just used your last [[Cable]]. It’s time to craft more, but this time we will not waste great quantities of resin. Go back in front of your [[Extractor]], and put 4 [[Sticky Resin]] into the top hole, and put some Redstone into the bottom hole (pure Redstone is like a 1 use low-efficient battery, but it works). With the Extractor, you get 3 Rubber for each Sticky Resin instead of just 1. Craft 2 batches of 6 [[Cable|cables]] with your [[Rubber]].

Now you can assemble your two RE Batteries.

Next we can craft the [[Generator]] to charge your batteries. Don't place the generator next to anything; I’ll explain why in the wiring section. Put your 2 empty batteries in the upper slot and put some (char)coal or other things that burn in the lower slot. You will need 3.5 (char)coal to fill up a single battery, but it is more efficient. You can place a chest right next to the generator and it will gather all your full batteries.

The empty batteries can stack up to 16, but the fully charged ones can’t be stacked. It’s the drawback of the re-usability. With a fully charged battery, power the [[Extractor]] for more [[Rubber]] and [[Cable|cables]].

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the incredible '''[[Macerator|MACERATOR]]''' which can double your mining productivity. Craft another [[Electronic Circuit|electronic circuit]], another [[Machine Block]] and collect the needed Cobblestone and Flint.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Flint|B1=Flint|C1=Flint
|A2=Cobblestone|B2=Machine|C2=Cobblestone
|B3=Electronic Circuit
|Output=Macerator
}}

Put your ore in the upper slot, and a battery in the bottom one, and wait for 2 [[Dusts|dust]] to magically appear from one ore, then, put that dust in an [[Electro Furnace]] and you will have 2 ingots for one ore. What, you don’t know how to create an [[Electro Furnace]]? It will be our next and final step of this long section.

You must know that the [[Macerator]] can do more things than create [[Dusts|dust]] from ore. It can create dust from coal too. The [[Dusts|coal dust]] is used in a lot of things. I recommend you gather 3 or 4 stacks of coal dust as soon as possible. The [[Macerator]] can make Flint out of Gravel. This may not seem so, but it’s really useful. It can also make Cobblestone from smooth Stone, and incredibly, make SAND out of Cobblestone. Cool, isn’t it?

And Now the [[Electro Furnace]]. But first you need to craft an [[Iron Furnace]]. The second recipe is here because of a certain mod that overwrites the 1st recipe, but it’s the same thing.

{|
|-
|{{Grid/Crafting Table

|A1=|B1=Iron|C1=
|A2=Iron|B2=|C2=Iron
|A3=Iron|B3=Furnace|C3=Iron
|Output=Iron Furnace
}}
|}

The Iron Furnace is 25% faster than the standard Furnace. You only need 6 Coal to heat 60 units instead of the 8 Coal for 64 units for the Stone Furnace, but we can do it faster with the Electric Furnace:

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B1=Electronic Circuit
|A2=Redstone|B2=Iron Furnace|C2=Redstone
|Output=Electro Furnace
}}

I know, it’s another [[Electronic Circuit|circuit]] to craft, but I warned you it will be everywhere.
Like the other machine, you put the stuff you want to heat in the upper part, and the battery in the bottom, its 12.5% faster than the Iron Furnace, and there is no energy waste. If there is nothing left in the top, it immediately stops consuming energy.

You now have 1 [[Extractor]], 1 [[Generator]], 1 [[Macerator]] and 1 [[Electro Furnace]]. It’s not much. If you think you can use more things, you're right.

Adding a [[BatBox]] will provide a much larger energy storage buffer for your Generator and therefore simplify its operation.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Wooden Planks|B1=Insulated Copper Cable|C1=Wooden Planks
|A2=RE Battery|B2=RE Battery|C2=RE Battery
|A3=Wooden Planks|B3=Wooden Planks|C3=Wooden Planks
|Output=BatBox
}}

Next you can add a [[Solar Panel]] to reduce your Coal/Charcoal usage. Keep in mind that Solar Panels require an unobstructed view of the sky and they only work in the daytime.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Coal Dust|B1=Glass|C1=Coal Dust
|A2=Glass|B2=Coal Dust|C2=Glass
|A3=Electronic Circuit|B3=Generator|C3=Electronic Circuit
|Output=Solar Panel
}}

Place your Generator directly on top of the BatBox. Run cable from the output face of the BatBox to your machines. Connect your Solar Panel to the side of the BatBox opposite to the output face. Now your BatBox will receive a constant trickle from the Solar Panel and can also receive energy from your Generator.

For more production, craft 1 more [[Generator]], 2 [[Macerator|Macerators]] and 2 [[Electro Furnace|Electro Furnaces]], and all will be faster. Don't forget the [[RE Battery|batteries]]; 2 is not enough.

[[File:solarflowertop.png|400px| link=|left]]
[[File:solarflowerbottom.png|400px| link=|right]]
 
<center>''To provide a significant amount of energy from solar, create Solar Flowers.''</center>

 
 

You can see the inside of my little home, 3 Macerators, 3 Electro Furnaces, 1 Extractor, 1 Generator in view and 2 unknown machines, you can see I’ve put a chest in front of my generator to gather the charged batteries when I stalk outdoor.
Next time we will need lot of batteries and cables for see the basics of wiring.

[[file:first_steps20.png |650px| link=|center]]

==The power of Bronze==

Now you have a little but fully functional base, that allow you to get twice as many ingots for every run you get. But you can’t move any of the machines or you must rebuild it from scrap.

Now we will craft the engi-friend tool: the [[Bronze Wrench]]. The Bronze Wrench is made from [[Bronze|BRONZE]]. I can hear your little voice: "''A new ore I haven't found? How can it be so rare?''" '''YOU FOOL''', [[Bronze]] is made from '''COPPER + TIN'''.

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|B2=Copper Dust|B3=Copper Dust
|C2=Copper Dust|C3=Tin Dust
|Output=Bronze Dust|OA=2}}

You need to take the dust from those 2 ores and mix them in a 3:1 ratio (location in the crafting grid doesn’t matter)
To smelt Bronze Dust into ingots, put them in a furnace (I offer you the Electric Furnace).

{|
|-
|{{Grid/Machine
|Type=Electro Furnace
|Top=Bronze Dust
|Bottom=RE Battery (Charged)

'''Iron!'''
A very important topic. Every machine is based on Iron. It also costs a lot of Iron for minecarts and rails. ''But we have bronze!'' Why we can't use bronze for rails?

{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Bronze|A2=Bronze|A3=Bronze
|B2=Stick
|C1=Bronze|C2=Bronze|C3=Bronze
|Output=Rail|OA=8}}

The use of a Bronze Wrench is incredibly easy: just right click on the machine you want to remove; be careful, if the machine wasn’t empty you will lose everything it contained. And sometimes you can make a ''mistake'', and you can’t retrieve the machine you craft, its unlucky, but it happens. Only 4 machines can be retrieved safely every time: [[MFE Unit]], [[HV Transformer]], [[Terraformer]] and '''[[Miner|MINERs]]'''.
Also, you can craft armor from Bronze.

== Second steps ''By KuglicsL'' ==

Now we have some machines, but don't stop mining. Pardon, mining. The [[Miner]].
It's a very good machine for lazy people. But if you want one, you must work hard.
{{Grid/Crafting Table
|A1=Electronic Circuit|B1=Machine|C1=Electronic Circuit
|B2=Mining Pipe
|B3=Mining Pipe
|Output=Miner
}}

For the mining pipe, you need 6 Refined iron and a treetap:

|A1=Refined Iron|A2=Refined Iron|A3=Refined Iron
|B3=Treetap|C1=Refined Iron|C2=Refined Iron|C3=Refined Iron

}}

For a working miner, you have to craft another two things:
First, you need a scanner. There are two types: an [[OD Scanner]], or a more precise, energy-eating [[OV Scanner]].

The OD Scanner scans a 5x5 area and submits the results on the player's screen. The OV Scanner scans a 9x9 area, and also submits the results on the player's screen. Either one can be used in the miner.
The second item your miner needs is a [[Mining Drill]].

The mining drill is a useful item. It can mine stone fast, but if that speed isn't enough, you can craft a [[Diamond Drill]].
{{Grid/Crafting Table

Put the drill and the scanner in the miner with a few mining pipes, give them energy, and go to the bed, relax, watch TV, but don't do hard jobs!

Now, we have one more machine, and we can power them with solar panels. But what will we do when BatBox runs out of energy at night? We want a bigger storage unit!
For that job, there is the [[MFE Unit]]. It can store 600,000 EU, as much as 15 BatBoxes!! If you can empty a fully loaded MFE Unit during a night, you are a very spendthrift player.
But! It isn't cheap. You must have at least <big>FOUR</big> diamonds! Go to layer 1-16, and search for some diamonds.
Can you find four diamonds? Are they genuine? Okay. Craft them to Energy Crystals!

Now, we can storage a lot of EU for difficult times.

Uhh. I have got hunger. Eat a sandwich! But... Food... The Canning machine! It is a cheap, useful, and multipurpose machine. It can be used for filling tin cans with food, and fill fuel tanks with biofuel or coalfuel.
Craft it!

''Uhh...'' We have got some energy. I want to '''MINE'''. But I don't like pickaxes, and I hate tapping my toes waiting for that miner to get everything. Time to craft something hot and shiny: the [[Mining Laser]]! But first, we need another, slightly less shiny machine: a [[Compressor]]. Smelt some cobblestone, craft a circuit and a machine block!

Every firing mode have advantage and disadvantage. The default firing mode is the mining mod. It's balanced.
Now, use your weapon, mine resources, because soon we will start a new chapter. Listen to a good music, chop down trees, get some cobblestone, manage your farm. Please, '''''RELAX'''''.

We do a lot of jobs, we have got a little house, and a few machines. '''BUT'''.
Why don't we make a big house for our machines? I said, that keep in your mind a big, flat place. If it takes a lot of time, to go to your flat place, we will craft a Teleporter, or a Terraformer.

For a Teleporter, you need a lot of energy, two metal blocks, some glowstone dust, and some coal dust.
For a Terraformer, you need energy, two TFBP, an advanced machine, and some glowstone dust.

==Obsidian==
There are various pages across the wiki that mention obsidian being able to withstand a nuclear explosion, while this page suggests that a nuke can, indeed, destroy obsidian. Which is correct? --[[User:Kmartinator|Kmartinator]] 20:01, 20 December 2011 (CET)

== Wiring ==

:'''I removed this from the main article, it doesn't seem to fit with the clean concise style of this article. I think it would work well if reworked into the [[Wiring]] article. [[User:Mason11987|Mason11987]] 20:22, 9 November 2011 (CET)

=== Text ===
I was sad when I discovered there was no wiring guide when ID2 came out, so Here's one based on my experimenting. Parts may be wrong, but this is all tested info.

Basic wiring requires an energy source (generator, solar panel, etc.), a storage unit (a batbox, a mfe, or a msu), wiring based on the storage unit (batbox=low=32, mfe=medium=128,
msu=high=512), and the machine(s) you are wiring. Cables lose power after a distance, so the most effective way (or my prefered way) to construct any solar generator set-ups is in "solar flowers".

1. place a storage unit at the center of where your making this flower. 2. Using a wrench, you can change the direction the storage unit is taking and delivering energy, so you should dig under the storage unit, and right click it to change the output direction downward, so you can have the input from the the 4 sides and the top, since solar generators need to "see" the sun to get power, they cant be placed under each other. Place up to 4 copper wires out each direction, because after the energy paces 5 cables, 1 energy is lost (assuming the cable is insolated and is copper). This should make a straight line out each side. 3. place 1 cable on each side of the 3rd cableso each row of cables makes a lowercase "t". 4. place the solar panels around the outer side, always touching the cables. If done right, this should now resemble a diagonal square. 5. put generators on top of the cables, to make the most use of the cable space. Lastly, a cable on top of the storage unit allows you to add another solar generator on top of it. 6. Now you need to connect the storage unit to the power in your house. You can use cable to take it to your house, but I would put some storage units every 4 cables to prevent the 5th from losing power. 7. Be aware of the voltage you provide to your home. Most machines require low voltage, and they don't require a constant 32 energy for each tick, they each gulp around 1,2, or 5 energy per tick, but they need a certain amount per function, such as 128 energy to burn something in the electric furnace (not the actual amount, just an example). If you send medium or high voltage power into a machine which requires lower voltage will make the machine and some wiring blow up.

More general tips

The wrench, which is used up after its destroyed, or the electric wrench, which can be recharged at a storage unit, is used to mess with machines in a few ways. It will remove most machines you right click with it, which is better than destroying it cause if you just destroy it instead of remove it, then the machine is destroyed in the process. The other use is it will change the direction of the output for storage units.

The storage units have 1 output slot, the side with the dots, and 5 input slots, where you put the cable to insert energy. Using a wrench on the storage unit does 1 of 2 things, either it will move the output slot to the side you click, or it will remove the machine if you click the output slot. So if you click the storage unit, and it gets reverted into an item, you clicked the output slot.

Different cables hold different amounts of voltage, copper is best for low, gold for medium, and iron for high. However, if your power generators, such as solar panels, are far away from your house, glass fibre cable is best. The higher cables can hold the power from the lower cables, but once the power is higher then the levels (32=low, 128=med 512=high) it is considered the next level up (33=med, 129=high).

When using transformers to change the voltage, it can be frustrating to figure out how they work. You dont need transformers if your combining cables to increase the power inside them, like making a T intersection, but you need transformers to downgrade the energy. You lose the energy is being downgraded. Like storage blocks, using a wrench on transformers will change the input/output directions of the transformer. Unlike storage units, the transformers have 1 input and 5 outputs, and the wrench changes the input.

If you decide to skip transformers, and plug a mfe into a low voltage machine, the wiring and machine will blow up, because there was too much power being brought through. You also cannot get away with just having a copper cable cable coming out, because it can overload too.

Use sand, dirt, or something easy to break, and make some maintenance passages, because I can almost destroy my computer for the amount of coals I burned re walling my place after editing the cable system, adding new lines, new machines, and so on. Tunnels will save alot of time, effort, and resources in the long run.

Because you lose energy over long distances, and fibre cable takes diamonds, I prefer to makes a long system of bat boxes after every 4th cable. The boxes will allow more energy to be held in the system, and you don't lose that 1 energy every 5th cable. But this requires a lot of iron, so if you just want to use the diamond and get the cabling over with...

Lastly, Machines that are set up on the same cables will have to share the power brought through the cable. For example, copper brings in 32 energy, and you have 4 machines set up. The 1st machine takes 7 power, the 2nd takes 8, the 3rd takes 9, and the 4th takes 10. After the 1st, there's 25 power left, after the 2nd there's 17, after the 2rd there's 8, which doesn't leave enough for the 4th. adding a 2nd energy box on the other end would fix this, but beware the price of each machine.
