Mana Energistics

Make mana a great source of energy again

Welcome, modders & users, this is my first highly complex project at the moment, is currently in development and it will be like an Industrial Craft (maybe) but magic-oriented. The main source of energy for the mod, as you may know, will be the mana, with this you can get high tier stuff to gather even more resources, machinery or other stuff. I will try to make possible to create complex mechanisms and farms with the machines. (I will add images later)

Actual features

As I started the mod yesterday, there is not much content actually in the mod, but you can find:

• Two new minerals: Mana and Calcite.
• A complete new crafting table system with an extra slot for mana with a custom crafting table block.
• A machine to generate mana from the air that periodically generates mana.
• Calcite bricks and brick slabs
• Arcane stone & a magic wand.

Calcite is a white blue-ish block that grows in high quantity on the underground, with 4 of these you can craft 1 brick block. Mana ore can also be found in a few groups, it has a procedure for dropping items, and can drop from 1-2 of mana, and some random xp. Also, it drops the ore instead of any other thing if you use silk touch and in the future, it will generate more mana if you use fortune. The machine to generate mana (the first one) called Auric Generator, generates mana from the air and it has some special ways to make it more efficient, I don't want to spoil.

Future ideas

I'm planning big things with this, such as runes, machines and functional blocks and tools.

Your opinion is important

As this actually doesn't have screenshots nor download links, you can help only by giving ideas of what you want to see in this mod. I will check them and probably add them.

Note: I know there is a mod called Applied Energistics, this mod has nothing related to AE, also because I never used that mod. :/

Note 2: I will post some screenshots later. Right now I can't add them.
