Hello, a suggestion would be to change the computer's recipe for a clock in the center instead of just a redstone powder. Just one redstone powder makes that the computer's recipe is too easy, but a clock needs 4 gold ingots and is more realistic. This change is only for the basic computer and the advanced computer. Pocket computers are already correct.

Nah… That would be 12 gold per advanced computer. Aint nobody got time for dat. Its not like computers are end game items, theyre used as fun and automation kinda…

At this moment they are too early game. At least add a config option. It's painful to be forced to use MineTweaker.

They dont need to be end game items as they are not. Theres no point in changing a recipe. It just adds simple automation and astetic stuff

Although they are "early-game" items, especially the normal ones, it still needs a program to work. computers can't do anything by themselves. And I would add "learning Lua" to the "hardness" of getting a (working) computer which actually unless you already learned it, makes it a late-game item without accounting for the recipe IMO. Especially if you want to do more advanced stuff like coroutines, metatables etc.
