DCEVM looks like it works on hotspot and such only, not alternatives (like I and many others run) so that wouldn’t be very user friendly, and for dev time intellij/eclipse can already swap out if signatures remain the same.
And yes, I like kotlin scripts, but greg doesn’t want to learn another language even if in build files he rarely touches, lol, also we are stuck on Gradle 3.5 because of plugin compat, though that is mostly because of ForgeGradle, is there a ForgeGradle1.2 that’s built for newer gradles?
In your linked GitHub - Technus/TecTech: GT5u nuclear and quantum physics addon project, just as a note, doesn’t compile due to a few issues:
First ./gradlew isn’t executable, that’s weird…
Second, well, it just doesn’t compile at all, it doesn’t even start:
$ ./gradlew assemble
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'TecTech'.
> Could not resolve all artifacts for configuration ':classpath'.
> Could not find org.eclipse.jdt.core.jar (org.eclipse.jdt:org.eclipse.jdt.core:3.10.0.v20131029-1755).

So unsure of it being the best example? ^.^;
For note, FG1.2 ‘does’ work on newer gradle’s to some extent, except it has bugs that can crop up at really annoying times, 3.5 was the latest stable one I was able to test with. I should probably get around to fixing FG sometime honestly…
