30.We fixed the BUG of no player interface and optimized a more realistic physics engine (page 1/2)
When Murphy traveled to this world and saw the broken Steam 800 refrigerator in Tris's courtyard, he knew that there were some "unique technologies" in this world that were difficult to explain in ordinary terms.”.
Later, he saw a steam-powered repeating crossbow in the village of Moreland. He once thought that using steam power for war was probably the most ruthless job that steam mechanics could do, but it turned out that he used it to persuade the children. If players understand the new world with a little more humility, they can actually apply it to themselves..
“Psionics... Arithmetic... Orbs?”
Murphy looked at Miriam with a fan-shaped expression that was mixed with confusion, curiosity, and confusion..
He can understand these six words when taken apart, but he has no idea what they mean when combined..
Maxim next to him was also confused..
Miriam just told him that the matter was serious, but the extent of loyal vampire worshipers' understanding of "steam engineering" was limited to these five words themselves..
Like his master, he is a true husband in this respect..
“Oh, let me explain it from the beginning.”
Miriam looked at the blank expressions of the master and servant in front of her and knew that they did not understand her worries at all..
She took out another orb array from the box under her butt and put it in her hand, raised it at a special angle and placed it above her eyes, and said to Murphy:
“Look at the orb from this angle and tell me what you see?”
Murphy followed Miriam's instructions and raised the gem array in his hand..
The vampire's vision at night is quite good. When the gem in his hand was turned to a specific angle, he immediately saw some unique structures reflected inside the translucent gem..
It is very much like a super complex system formed by the combination of tiny gears and mechanical structures. It is densely packed but assembled together in a very regular and industrially beautiful way, and it is like a transparent gemstone that is larger than a fingernail. There are three systems like this, connected to each other by a set of lever systems to form a larger whole..
“this is impossible!”
Murphy immediately retorted:
“If it wasn't my eyesight... No, it was definitely my eyesight! No matter how high the industrial level of halflings is, it is impossible to make ultra-micro components with such precision.!
There are at least tens of thousands of parts assembled together..
this is some kind of illusion?”
“To be precise, it is a triple-packed simple psychic difference machine composed of 44,327 parts, iterated to the third generation..
It is said that the computing speed is super fast!”
Miriam shrugged and smoothly said a phrase that was quite complicated in Transian, which made Maxim's mind spin a little..
But Murphy got it..
He continued to look questioningly at Miriam, who explained:
“Don't look at me like that, I don't understand its specific operating mode. I'm just an administration student. I learned these terms from the works of Professor Bach Gaslamp, just to pass the "Brief History of Machinery" I got credits for elective courses, but I didn’t expect it to come in handy in this situation..
In short, the micro-difference engine in the Calculation Orb is certainly not real.!
The prototype of this thing occupies an entire exhibition hall in the underground museum of Shardau Artisan University, but the halfling mechanical craftsmen got inspiration from the phenomenon of 'psionic erosion' that occurs everywhere in the world..
They and their dwarf brothers used special techniques to manipulate psionic energy. With the help of the psionic masters of the Ring Tower, they used psionic formulas to mobilize the psionic factors widely found in nature to form some kind of peculiar spell. Finally, at the microscopic level, The level implementation simulates the operation of the difference engine..
Since then, micro-computing orbs have emerged, and halfling steam engineering has successfully entered an era..”
Miriam shook the orb in her hand and said:
“This thing is found in various automata in Port Chardeau. The one we have is a pure computing type and does not come with any control accessories. It only needs to be filled with spiritual energy, and it can help the user do many things..”
“For example?”
Maxim asked stupidly.
His brain, which had been exposed to metaphysics since childhood, really couldn't understand what Miriam just said, but his question was just right..
The red-haired lady rolled her eyes and explained patiently.:
“For example, it can help you translate a poem written in Elvish in one minute, or it can help you plan in a few seconds how to spend your salary next month and how much you have spent this year..
If necessary, it can even help you make a detailed account of your income and expenses. You only need to activate the psychic projector, and you can even see its calculation results with your eyes..
When I enrolled in Craftsman University, I was also given a second-generation computing orb as big as a fist as part of the student benefits.,
Nowadays, many campuses of Chardo University are undergoing "storage reform". Those professors plan to use psychic orbs and supporting databases to replace ancient paper documents..
That's really convenient!
It only takes an area the size of a castle to store all the information in an old-fashioned library the size of Cadman City. If you need the book, just tell your calculation orb, and it can retrieve and copy it for you..
If you're lazy enough, you can even have it read it for you.
Of course, an external psionic microphone requires extra money. Only those aristocratic young men who are not short of money will use this service. I heard that they will use computing orbs to read some very obscene things to cheer up on certain occasions....”
“That's not the point!”
Murphy probably understood what this computing orb is. Although it is not necessarily exactly the same, it can basically be regarded as the "computer and operating system" of this world. However, at present, this thing should only be used in Chardo's half body. Human territory has sprouted and been put into use, and has not yet spread to other parts of the continent..
So he asked:
“The point is, why did the Plantagenet Kingdom make great efforts to smuggle the orbs of calculation back from the Shardor halflings? Also tagged military supplies?”
“Because it really can be used to fight a war, Murphy.”
Miriam sighed and said:
“That was when I first entered school, and I heard about this from my old halfling lady counselor. It was said that it was because the Ring Tower sided with the Plantagenet Kingdom in the Ten Years' War..
When the situation was unfavorable at the beginning of the war, the psionicists proposed to use the Orb of Calculation into the military. They also participated in the development of the Orb of Calculation. Their understanding of this thing was second only to the halfling mechanics..
They transformed the internal logic and simulation algorithm of the computing orb, and spent three months to build a communication and command system covering the entire Greene Army, using each computing orb and their users as communication nodes and even computing artillery. shooting position, thereby achieving a rapid improvement in command effectiveness..
Two years before the Ten Years' War, the Old Believer rebels and their companions spent sixteen months conquering the two border provinces of the Plantagenet Kingdom. After the Orb of Operation was put into the war, the Greene Army and the Old Army who had completed the change of gear It took the Janissaries only three months to drive the rebels out of the country.
I can't imagine how they could use these things to fight, but after that incident, the Steam Lords immediately ordered a ban on the export of computing orbs..
Apparently, the Plantagenet Kingdom's behavior of devoting their efforts to war made the mechanics very angry. It is said that they also completely cut off the cooperative research and development with Ring Tower because of this incident..
