Utility Items
- Psimetal Compass: A specialized compass that can be bound to a specific coordinate or vector via a spell. The needle will point toward the programmed location rather than the world spawn.
- Psimetal Sensor: An item that can be placed into the Sensor slot of a Psimetal Exosuit. It allows the suit to react to specific environmental stimuli or spell-based triggers.
- Flowing Psimetal / Ebony / Ivory: Aesthetic variants of standard Psimetal materials used for crafting "Flowing" versions of tools and armor, which feature animated textures.
Spell Tricks & Operators
The mod significantly expands the Spell Programmer's toolkit with new tricks and a massive library of mathematical operators.
New Tricks
- Trick: Conjure Star: Creates a non-solid, glowing "Star" entity at the target position. It acts as a light source and lasts for a set duration. (Cost: 100 Psi)
- Trick: Detonate Charge: Remotely detonates any active Psi charges placed by the caster. (Cost: 50 Psi)
- Trick: Pulse Redstone: Creates a momentary redstone pulse at the target location. (Cost: 50 Psi)
- Trick: Greater Infusion: An advanced version of the Infusion trick used for automating the creation of Ebony and Ivory Psimetal.
- Trick: Particle Trail: Creates a visual trail of particles between two vectors. (Cost: 10 Psi)
- Trick: Debug: Prints the value of a specific node to the player's chat console. Invaluable for troubleshooting complex spell logic.
- Trick: Till: Tills the block at the target position, turning grass or dirt into farmland.
- Trick: Shear: Performs a shearing action on the target entity or block (e.g., shearing sheep or harvesting vines).
Mathematical Operators
Random PSIdeas adds over 30 new operators to the Spell Programmer, including: * Trigonometry: Sin, Cos, Tan, Asin, Acos, Atan, Atan2, Sinh, Cosh, Tanh. * Advanced Math: Root (Square Root), Log, Log10, Exp, Floor, Ceil, Round, Abs, Signum. * Logic & Vectors: Min, Max, Clamp, Lerp, Step, Smoothstep, Map, Noise, Random, Vector Rotate, Vector Normalize, Vector Cross, and Vector Project.
Blocks
The mod adds functional blocks that interact with the Psionic energy in the world.
- Psimetal Sensor (Block): A block that monitors for Psi activity in its vicinity. When a spell is cast nearby, or when a spell specifically targets the block, it emits a redstone signal. This allows for the creation of spell-activated machinery and wireless redstone systems.
- Conjured Star: The block/entity produced by the Trick: Conjure Star. It is intangible and provides a light level of 15.
