I have a question.. I have an existing world that my kids and I wanted to use with this mod. (We are running 1.6.2 and the latest galcra from here, map was made with 1.6.2).
Everything installed great, no problems during the install process, all went fine.
Playing the game, however, left us with an issue.
Does it matter whether you run the server the 1st time (when it creates the map/world) or not, in regard to resources being available?
The problem we have is there are no "custom resources" on Earth (Overworld as you and MC refer to it lol) at all.. My fear/concern/question is will the Galacticraft mod add the necessary resources to map that is not "new" or "newly generated"? The moon DOES have resources (so my kids inform me, I've just been busy building a moon base there, rofl).
This became obvious (and a notable bug if new servers behave just as my "imported" map) when trying to gather up all the parts to build the equipment to get to the moon. It was impossible, and I ended up having to 'cheat' aka entering creative mode to drop the stuff we couldn't make. I did read several posts both here and the MC forums where several people indicate the resources (stuff like the oil pools for fuel, tin, steel, copper) they claimed were just as common as iron, maybe even coal. In desperation I even spawned in the goggles (after reading what they did) and used them to speed up the searching process.. Not a single resource that was supposed to be added was in the game, again, on Earth.
Is this an issue? Is there any way to get the necessary resources to spawn on Overworld?
Thanks for your time, and aside of the small issue, an extremely awesome mod!
