Dont understand viral agents
AnkokuTenebris opened this issue ยท 6 comments
Well, im in 1.12.2 trying to create a BVA, but even with the steps in the wiki im not able to do it.
I create the normal viral agent bottle (because i cannot move the bottle from my inventory to the incubator), and i put in the top the helix, i tried with basic ones, mutated, revelated... but nothing.
Im not sure if im doing something wrong but when, for example, i try to get a mining fatigue agent i use rabit and silverfish cells, DNA, and the result is the same, i use the helix as the wiki sais but it just dont work.
Also, another problem i have is that when i try to draw blood to a mob with the metal syringe, a message appears saying "That is disabled in the configuration", there is any way to solve it?
There will be a mod-spotlight video coming out soon with a more detailed explanation, however the general steps are:
- Create BVA
- Create helix with gene you need
- Use Advanced Incubator AND a Chorus Fruit as fuel to create Viral Potion
So for Mining Fatigue, you will need a DNAHelix with the "Haste" gene. Place 1-3 BVA in the lower slots of the Advanced Incubator, add the helix to the top slot, add a chorus fruit to the fuel slot, set the Adv. Incubator to LOW HEAT (click the yelow-ish bar), and wait about 20 min.
If you do not use low heat or the chorus fruit, you can still get a viral potion, but your chance of success is very low (< 3%).
Yeah i stand that, the problem is that it just not work, when i put any helix on the top, nothing happens, even with the fruit or the low temp mode, it just not works.
For example a speed helix from a rabbit, nothing, a strengh one from a bear, nothing.
Ah and when i try to put a syringe in the incubator, the game crashes.

- Put sugar on water
- Put organic matter on the result
- put a gene on the result
- put a fermented spider eye on the result
- put a bear cell on the result
- put the diamond (IIRC) on the result, THIS needs to be low temp and you need the fruit exactly if you've installed speed upgrades (otherwise you get worse results)
- put the resulting cell into the extractor
- complain about this process being badly documented
@7eggert is correct, I will work on improving the documentation.
