Project name and homepage: BuildCraft
Assignment
BuildCraft is a popular modification, or extension, to the even more popular video game Minecraft. It adds many features, for example complex machines allowing the player automate some of their jobs and create even more intricate and complex contraptions.
My assignment is to look for and fix bugs in the mod. The actual bugs that I will fix are currently unknown - some are reported on the forums, and many more may lurk in the code. It’s a question of finding them.
My main goal is investigating and fixing this bug
Failing at that, I’ll write some documentation.
