2.6.1

Overview

The monthly ticket for quest changes. Well, maybe it is the quarterly ticket for quest changes. A ticket for any large or small problems with any quests. Just post below. Of course, you can also make a dedicated ticket. In particular for more indepth suggestion or problems a dedicated one is better. This ticket is more focussed on small and clear problems and suggestions that don't really need any larger discussion.

The most up-to-date quest files can always be found here: https://github.com/GTNewHorizons/GT-New-Horizons-Modpack/tree/master/config/betterquesting/DefaultQuests
Depending on your version, you might also need to update BQ to use them.

Below are the remaining things from the last ticket (#15373):

Quest Changes

• Rework Turbine Materials and Useless Space Ores GT5-Unofficial#1146 reworked turbine materials, so quests related to turbine materials need to be checked to confirm if any changes are needed.
• quest "Smaller Fusion Is Bigger" in "Powerful Nuclear Physics" should mention that compacts follow different overclocking rules, needing double the startup power and double the voltage instead of just the voltage.
• some potential issues with AE2FC quests Monthly Ticket for Quest Changes #15373 (comment), Monthly Ticket for Quest Changes #15373 (comment)
• add T9 planets to some quests Monthly Ticket for Quest Changes #15373 (comment)
• remove samarium oxide and mention of gangue from IV lanth quests
• remove cynical comment at the end of arc furnace multi quest

Wishlist for New Quests

• quest regarding NEI's 2.6.0+ recipe group & linking mechanics?
• quest regarding NEI's 2.7.0+ new search syntax options?

• Something small but bothered me nonetheless:

„How to bee“-quest tree, the quest about the Genetic imprinter says that „it works 100% of the time“. I find this misleading - it does work if your bee doesn’t turn into genetic waste, because this machine also has the 30% degrade chance for pristine and 80% death chance for ignoble bees.
Suggestion: add an Information about a.m. degrade/death chances.

• The "Stainless Steel EBF processing" quest in MV is not dependent on the "MV Energy Hatch" quest. This made me think that it might be possible to overclock it with multiple LV Energy hatches, but correct me if I'm wrong, I think it's not.

In which case it might be more beneficial to make the quest dependent on the MV Energy Hatch quest, so it will become available after going through the motions needed to get to the energy hatch.

If there's anything I can do to help (make a PR or something) if this should be done, let me know! :)

• T4 rocket engine quest has the same description as the T3 quest.

[lilpaladin1]

• Can we change the Adept Thaumaturgy quest "Secrets" so that it's instead hunting down 4 knights OR 4 clerics, so that way it avoids the problems from Quest "Adept Thaumaturgy/Secrets" is not MP friendly #2209 while also not being annoying for someone who has done the Nine Hells quest to get the Cleric Spawn Eggs only to find out that spawned Clerics don't spawn Knights?

[Imagine0123]

The quest for the Stocking input buses which are obtainable when you get AE2 is locked behind the quest for the UV-Tier stocking input hatches, feels like that's backwards

[chochem]

wasnt that fixed a while back?

[cargocats]

• Typo in the word "durability" for the quest "Repairing Your Hazmat Suit"

[Baerschen]

We should adjust the me output hatch and bus quests for sampsas upcoming nerf. They should honestly get their own quest explaining the mechanichs that were shown in upcoming features channel. Will prob do this myself when its added to the nighlies just leaving this comment as a reminder.

Edit: The info for the quest has been updated in #16781

[Doma1269]

1. Spelling mistake in LV microprocessor in HV
   
2. Small coils are locked behind Integrated processors, CPU`s and an MV circuit assembler. You can make them with the current tools you have (steel, copper and polyethylene)

[OlliedeLeeuw]

Decided against changing this, while yes it is craftable earlier there is no reason to as the small coils are only used in the next quest (and in iv mainframe later) and for the purpose of keeping the quest flow intact.

Would it be possible to add a bypass for the HV Sifter quest to the GT++ Sifter Multiblock quest? I just realized I have to go back and make an HV Sifter, when I've already made several EV sifters. If possible a bypass when you hold a higher level single block sifter would be what I'm after.

Isn't HV sifter part of the recipe for Large Sifter Controller?

[OlliedeLeeuw]

Isn't HV sifter part of the recipe for Large Sifter Controller?

yeah it is, and the quest for GT++ sifter is also locked behind HV singleblock quest so i dont see the problem.

• Make the "The Transcontinental Railroad - Electric"-quest dependent on the Assembler quest in LV instead of the EBF-quest, as you can craft them without an EBF.

Stone Railbed is easily available in the crafting table and better in the Assembler, and the electric Rail you can craft in the Assembler with just standard-rail and either copper or gold wire if you don't want to use any other machines. And the electric rails needed for the elctric tracks need an assembler to craft.

[chochem]

• explain the new recipe search in 'cows are supposed to moo' to filter all the knives by searching 'flint'.

[chochem]

• move asoc quest to IV as it is needed for the precise assembler (which is now newly in IV)

[Baerschen]

• If this Readd the Fluid processors to the Fluid Storage Recipes NewHorizonsCoreMod#915 (comment) gets merged the quests for the fluid processor will need to be updated again

[Phiapsi]

Should be "Alternative" instead of "Alterative"

• Typo of Telepad Quest in Getting Around

[gasgsm]

Quest "Applied Greg?" - add mention that Output Hatch (ME) can handle all multiblock outputs. Until now I was using them as ordinary output hatches - if recipe has 3 fluid outputs my LCR would have 3 me output hatches.

[JL2210]

• Can we combine 'Another Brick in the Wall' with 'getting charcoal' and make the bricks themselves an optional task? Every time I play this part I always smelt and craft the bricks first before realizing I need to have 104 of the cooked and uncooked ones in my inventory

[chochem]

• enchanted cloth discount is 5%, not 6%.

[SparkedTheorem]

The Runes quest in the Botania section should only require you to make 1 of each rune. For most runes, you only need like one, as crafting the more complicated runes will return the runes used in crafting and I sure as hell do not need more than 1 of the complicated runes for basic progression.

[chochem]

In order to make HV circuits, you need HV circuit

according to the picture it does not say that. What is the typo?

[chochem]

just say which word you mean in which sentence

[chochem]

yea thats definitely correct.

[Yamnasm]

Typo found for quest "Handle Resources like a Bo$$" (LV-tier)
Typo highlighted in red. Should be "filter".

[dgealow]

according to the picture it does not say that. What is the typo?

To me it just seemed like a typo, shouldn't it be more like: In order to make HV circuits, you need MV circuits. Maybe it's not a typo, but it didn't make much sense to me first

You're slightly misreading--it says, in order to make HV machines, you need HV circuits.

Quest "Rutile" in "Tier 3 - HV"

The current quest description is not clear enough. If one uses single-block chemical reactor and carbon dust (indicated by optional task) as input, they can't recycle CO to get all the carbon back. To get CO, one must use carbon cell as input.

Modified quest description:

You've gotten some Rutile as a byproduct by now, right? Or EBF'd some Ilmenite?

Rutile, Chlorine and Carbon makes Titaniumtetrachloride, and some CO. You can recycle CO to get all the Carbon back.
(If you're using a single-block chemical reactor, use carbon cells instead of carbon dust to obtain CO for recycling.)

Combine TiCl4 with Magnesium in an HV EBF to make Hot Titanium ingot and Magnesiumchloride. You can recyle MgCl2 as well to get all the Magnesium and Chlorine back using some Sodium.

[chochem]

it should just say to use LCR

[purchan]

But there is an option to use single-block chemical reactor and still get back all the carbon. I think it is worth mentioning. Canning carbon dust into carbon cell is almost zero-cost, requiring a canner.

• GT-New-Horizons-Modpack/config/betterquesting/DefaultQuests/Quests/FishingFarmingCo-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACg==/BetterDirt-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAQ==.json

  Line 34 in bbfe04e

  "desc:8": "With an Assembler and some seedoil, you can turn dirt and sand into Garden Soil. This optimal soil does not require water nearby and crops do not break when you fall on it. It can turn into dirt if you run on it, so be careful.\n\nUnlike watered farmland, it doesn\u0027t contribute to the humidity stat or speed up IC2 crops though, so don\u0027t bother when min-maxing.\n\nSame thing for enchanted earth, lamp of growth, sprinklers, etc."

  
  
  I think this part can be removed as it should've been caused by ic2 crops and thus fixed in fix ic2 crops making any farmland trampleable Hodgepodge#425

[chochem]

• we might need some quest adjustments due to vein name changes Give ore mixes localized names GT5-Unofficial#3290

[FireWarrior2]

• Probably QFT quest needs Infinity coil quest requirement because it is used in QFT coil casing craft
  
  

[SasB18]

Found a typo in the Cleanroom quest, this time for real. Line 7, it says "top center,fFilter machine...". Should be "top center, Filter machine..."

[chochem]

pretty sure that was fixed. I guess you are on stable which has been a while :P

[tommmmmmmmm]

plasma mixer no longer requires UMV circuit, i think it can be moved next to the dtpf quest.

[HoleFish]

LCR can overclock beyond 1 tick now.

[Baerschen]

• Quests for the new Item Holders introduced in 2.7
• Quests for ravens new jukebox. They would fit best in Building better bases and could reward a pair of Headphones if you get yourself an electrical jukebox
• Some bees that are very worthwile that could use quests (sunnarium, energium and laoptron)
• Add info to the cactus and sugar charcoal quests that they can now be compressed to last longer (new in 2.7)
• Add a quest for the Bee wiki (https://dipo33.com/dxzfvzs/bees/)

Will probably do most of these myself but im writing it down to track it

[tommmmmmmmm]

UMV components quest requires field generator, which then has its own quest gated by shirabon/uxv circuit.
can we get the field gen (and maybe also emitter and sensor) out of the other components so i don't have to make it before the 43 component casings and also not have it being asked by two consecutive quests?

[tommmmmmmmm]

metastable oganesson is an UMV quest, but it was (implicitly?) required in UIV as ingredient for the dimensionally shifted superfluid that goes into UIV motors

[Demiu]

There is no quest for varja, I think it's last gate is IV engraver for engraved energy chip

GTNewHorizons/ArchitectureCraft#19 added a neato glowbrush to turn existing AC blocks glowing, would be a nice subquest to the architecturecraft sawbench

[chochem]

whats this then :P

[Ethryan]

Some info about the Akashic Tome and how to use it might be a good idea.
