ProjectE-Watch of Flowing Time

The item banned by many, the one infamous for causing a massive amount of issues with other mods, worlds, and annoying everyone on a server by having multiple people constantly mess with time. Not many people have really been able to use this item simply due to the nature of it, and was something I intended to change to make it usable on every server while removing a lot of the negatives regarding it. Now, to both the joy of some and to the disappointment of others, the time control ability is still on in normal use, but you can still freely disable. The pedestal ability has been changed to be better suited for servers and also the direction that the modpack is going. The watch of flowing time has two modes, many people know this as the gold version and the gray version, but these two modes play an important part into the abilities it offers on the pedestal. The first mode, the gray version, is an always-on ability that allows all nearby collectors to bypass the night system, making them act like it's constantly day time. This ability costs about 50 emc per tick per collector to run, but only costs emc at night making it not really suitable for early game but late game you'll get far more out of this. The second mode, the gold version, is a boost ability. This is the one players are most familiar with and it effectively makes Collectors double the output of their emc rate (half rate on normal+ difficulty), at a cost of 100 emc per tick per Collector, however the math behind this is quite tricky, since the idea is it gets less efficient the more Collectors it's boosting. For the exact math behind it, it's:

100 * amount * (1 + ( 0.1 * amount))

So boosting 5 collectors would be

100 * 5 * (1 + 0.1 * 5)) = 750 EMC per tick

This makes the item get very expensive very fast, and is something that you will definitely need to think about when setting up your emc farm. Additionally, the Watch of Flowing time will not stack on collectors, so you also have to be mindful not to put two too close together to avoid wasting emc. Lastly, the Watch of Flowing Time boost mode will work on Condensed Relays and PowerFlowers, but will not work on any other block, this is for both balance, lag, and to prevent exploits/major bugs.
