You can also use a BC filler to cobble everything up including natural caves if you do not like underground mobs spawning in an area.

I apologize if this is repeated advice. Pure is actually a flower trait. You do not need actual pure bees, just put the flower trait on whatever bee you actually want. (You of course still need to breed pure bees to get the trait though. Further, it is impacted by pollination speed, get yourself...

Very nice! Is there the ability to alter this based on what is being affected? In particular I would be looking at tweaking the values to harvest/fertilize trees and crops at different rates in an ideal world.

On 5x 3x3 fertilized plots of various types I ran 36x 36HP boilers with tons of excess fuel and wood. IIRC they were redwood, carrots, netherwart, flax, and wheat. Potatoes would provide more fuel than the wheat since it gives more "seeds" but the wheat was needed to keep fertilizer production...

I just took a look back at the code snipet segnir provided and it looks like it does scale with how much you are over, so that sounds like a bad call. https://twitter.com/sirsengir/status/322699952759386112

In 1.5 4x standard frames in an alveary will perfectly hit the 16x production cap. 1x mutator with uranium will perfectly hit the mutator cap. These are probably your best options. (assuming the numbers do not change between 1.4 and 1.5, which afaik they are not)

12 soul frames and 2 chocolate frames will make sure that even the longest life bee dies in 1 "tick" and every bee will have a 100% mutation chance. Keep in mind in the 1.5 version of forestry anything beyond a 10x mutation mult or 16x production mult will turn your princesses into swarmers. You...

If you wanted to get rid of the transformer upgrades and go down to LV, you simply need 4x LV transformers per MFSU. Each transformer can accept 1 input packet and output 4x output packets at the lower voltage. This means that one MV transformer hapily transforms your MFSU down to 4x128, but to...

This may have already been said, but I would not remove any mod entirely. I would however severely trim back RP2 world gen. If RP2 world gen were trimed back to be only the ore-like materials it would likely be able to be updated very quickly. No more waiting for RP for new packs, and really the...

I have posted the solution (but using any interface in your network and not the needless chest/import bus) in no less than 3 AE threads. You stink at searching.

Honestly your best bet if you want multiple machines to be used is to use a couple routers. It lets you integrate a lot of machines really easily, evenly distributes materials between them, and makes retrieving processed materials from the whole set easy.

The current version of Logistic pipes is done by someone other than the original creator (krapht never ported it to 1.3). It is all legit as far as licenses are concerned, but krapht has said that he does plan to eventually make his own updated version, so the FTB team feels like they would...

I actually use both a tesseract into an interface and a ender chest import bus. I like having an ender pouch on me that just shoves stuff into the AE network no mater where I am.

Correct. Interfaces act as an inventory (top right box) that keeps anything on the top left stocked (anecdote: nice feature is that it will do crafting jobs for these things if necessary automatically). Anything that is not supposed to be there automatically gets sucked into the storage network...

I would go with a 2 interface solution, no import bus. Use TE's ability to push items out of its devices to push into an 'import' interface rather than using an import bus to suck items out. Import buses use more power and resources than interfaces, so they should never be used with TE devices...

MFR offers blocks that look kinda like roads but act as ice if you want a low end solution to just speed things up a bit while looking better than actual ice.

For items that you want to be auto-crafted for your own use (say you want to keep a certain number of alveary blocks on hand). Point an export bus directly at an interface (any interface in your network works). Set the export bus to only operate on redstone signal and craft only. From there use...

Actually, no they are not. It has vastly different internal logic than BC conductive pipes. They carry the same energy type, and that is honestly where the similarities end.

I think I am falling to Poes law here, but just in case you are serious, what has FTB actually produced which could be "ripped off", and how did Big Dig do it? From what I can tell neither FTB nor BigDig contain anything that they produced, being simply a repackaging of a collection of existing...

In 1.4 it would use any one. In 1.5 I believe some of the damage value detection was upgraded, but I am not sure if it applies in this situation since I have not tried 1.5 yet. The chest method would let you get multiple rolling machines per interface. If you are tight on quartz or power it...
