I think Monster has the same version of IC2 Experimental that I've been playing, in which case there will be some "interesting" changes.

They've changed UU-matter, now it sucks. Not quite but you get liquid UU which has to be transferred to a replicator to create items. As a minimum you'll need a mass fab, liquid ejector upgrade, replicator, pattern storage and scanner, possibly some data stores as well.

Also a sample of the item to be replicated. Fortunately iridium turns up in dungeons. EDIT: and successfully scanning an item consumes the item so before lending someone your iridium make sure they have enough UU to re-create it (8.2 buckets I think but I'm not certain) or just lend them a data store with the item on instead.

good thing I found some Iridium on the first day cfuk monster opened smile I know it's a pain when things get overly complicated with no apparent reason, but imho since it makes you work and think harder, it can also prevent game from getting old too soon..
I didn't bring my laptop and I'm on a small vacation atm.. I trust you guys will fix monster when I come back in a few days.. (update to newer version, or at least fix our chunk smile ) lol

ps Sry if I miss something on the forum, it don't like using my phone for this stuff :/

One nice thing is the MF now has upgrade slots.

The other downside is I seem to recall very little else apart from Iridium could be scanned successfully. I managed clay and a diamond, and I think I read it did dirt too, but other materials came up "error".

Maybe that issue was addressed in newer version of Monster? Do you have iridium for scanning? If not, I can lend you some if my character or base wasn't wiped.. I'm yet to see what's been going on while I wasn't here..
btw I'm back now smile

issue? thats supposed to happen if i recall correctly, only the items you could make using uu in the previous IC2 are scannable so try some redstone, smooth stone or snowballs for instance.

Well in RR I tried a few of the items that used to work, for metals I tried both the ore and dust, also emerald and enderpearl. No good
