File Name

gemulation-1.8.9-1.0.4.jar

Supported Versions

  • 1.8.9

Changed:

  • Dependency on Silent's Gems has changed to at least version 1.8.9-1.3.12 (since I make use of the pylon/altar interfaces that were added)

 

Added:

  • Gem Chests (standard tier)
    • Each of the twelve basic gems now has an associated chest (crafted with a vanilla chest surrounded by eight of the same type of gem)
    • These chests have 54 slots of storage space. Neat!
  • Gem Changer (name not necessarily final)
    • Tired of having loads of rubies or sapphires laying around but very few of any other type of gem! Have no fear, the power of chaos is here! Using the Gem Changer (powered by nearby passive/burner chaos pylons - see Silent's Gems for reference), you can change any type of gem into any other type! There's a catch, though: the process is [almost] completely random! Upon placing gems into the left-hand side of the gui, the Changer will grab them, one at a time, and use 500 Chaos Energy and 5 second to transform it into another gem (it won't change it into the same type) and move it to the right-hand output slots!
    • If a target gem is placed in the target slot (you know, the one with a very poorly drawn target), then the Changer won't move the gem from the working area until it is the same type as the target. Since the conversion process is random, this might take a bit of time. Fortunately, the Changer is a little intelligent and keeps track of what types of gems the one being worked on has already been and will try to keep from turning it back into one of those. This means (assuming you don't change the target gem while it's working), you're guaranteed to get the target gem in [at most] 11 attempts! (An upgraded version of this block may eventually rear its ugly head, but until then you'll have to deal with randomness.)
