Starbunclemania guide for FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.0.3 to 1.4.1

Same as in the All the Mods 10 4.14 guide

Starbunclemania is part of this pack, which ships version 1.5.1 of the mod (file starbunclemania-1.21.1-1.5.1.jar). It has been in the pack since version 3.0 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the mod list rather than a recent addition.^[1]

Unverified The sources I have don't describe what Starbunclemania does or who it is aimed at, so I can't tell you about its features or mechanics here. They also don't show any quests in this pack that involve it, and they don't place it on the ATM Star path, so I can't say where it fits in the pack's progression.

Same as in the FTB Skies 2 1.23.0 guide

Here's the quick version: for every option in the files below that lists a mod default, the pack's value is the same as that default. Nothing has been tweaked, so you can follow the mod's normal behaviour and only change things if you want to.^[2][3][4]

Starbuncle transfer settings

These live in config/starbunclemania-server.toml. Each kind of transfer starbuncle has a ratio (its transfer rate) and a threshold. Here's what the pack uses:^[4]

• Fluid starbuncles: [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starbucket_ratio]] is 1000 and [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starbucket_threshold]] is 250.^[4]
• Gas starbuncles: [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starballoon_ratio]] is 1000 and [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starballoon_threshold]] is 250.^[4]
• Energy starbuncles: [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starbattery_ratio]] is 100,000 and [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.starbattery_threshold]] is 1000.^[4]

Source and fluids

[[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.source_condense_cost]] is the source cost to make a bucket of liquid source, and the pack keeps it at 1000. [[config:config/starbunclemania-server.toml#General Configs.fluid_to_source]] sets the value of a milli-bucket of fluid converted into source by the sourcelink, with an example entry of minecraft:lava=1.6. The pack leaves it as an empty list, so it adds no custom entries.^[4]

Fluid glyphs

Each fluid glyph has its own file in config/starbunclemania. general.enabled and general.enabled are both true, so both glyphs are on.^[2][3]

general.glyph_tier and general.glyph_tier are both set to 2. general.starter and general.starter are both false, so neither is a starter glyph.^[2][3]

• Place fluid: general.cost is 20.^[2]
• Pickup fluid: general.cost is 80.^[3]

general.per_spell_limit and general.per_spell_limit are both 2,147,483,647, which is effectively no limit on how many times each glyph can appear in one spell.^[2][3]

The augment cost overrides, augment limits and invalid combos options (for example general.augment_cost_overrides, general.augment_limits and general.invalid_combos) are all empty lists for both glyphs, so the pack adds no extra restrictions or cost changes to them.^[2][3]

Rendering

[[config:config/starbunclemania-common.toml#General Configs.mob_jar_render]] enables rendering of the mob jar fluid, and the pack sets it to true.^[5]
