This mod is not under active development anymore. Should you be interested in maintaining/updateing/improving the mod, let me know!

A Little OpenComputers addon which adds laser links and (planned) satellites with radios, antennas and other high frequency stuff :3

Current status

• Lasers check if they have an opponent via regular entities (1 entity per second).
• (Basic AE2 integration is working (DSP tier 3 is required for the AE Encoder to work)) 1.7.10 only. Blame AlgorithmX2 ^^
• Lasers need all inventory slots filled with the appropriate items (different tiers currently have no effect except for the laser tube and the DSP)
• Lenses can be stacked (placed after each other)
• Maximum Multiplier = (Diamond Lens Multiplier+1)*2
• Maximum distance:
• Laser tier 1: 64 blocks
• Laser tier 2: 128 blocks
• Laser tier 3: 256 blocks
• Lenses distance multiplier (without lens multiplier = 1):
• Glass Lens: +1
• Quartz Infused Lens: +3
• Shaped Diamond Lens: +7
• Power usage:
• Laser tier 1: 25 RF/tick
• Laser tier 2: 50 RF/tick
• Laser tier 3: 100 RF/tick
• (AE Encoder multiplies this by 10) 1.7.10 only. Blame AlgorithmX2 ^^
• Discouragement Redirection Cube (totally not a Portal reference...) allows laser beam redirection
• Discouragement Redirection Cube decreases the maximum distance by 8

TODO

• Port to recent Minecraft versions
• I need better textures for the two laser tubes (Laser item tier 2 and 3) and recipes for all three laser tiers.
• Rendering of laser beams. Quite hard to do. Help and ideas are appreciated!
• add all the fancy stuff from Ideas.txt :3
