Not getting a sapling is an homage to classic skyblock. Opening to LAN, turning on cheats, giving yourself an oak sapling is also an homage to classic skyblock. But, you're also right that the recipes should NOT (edit) care which planks.

@slowpoke can you share the server start script you were using with streamers to test this pack? I'd like to see your memory and command line options. When we have 3 people each on their own island, we start experiencing a slow crash where we get kicked and timeout on login. No crashlog is...

BTW, the ServerStart.sh included with the server download has probably never actually been used. the settings.sh has way outdated command line options and says min 512m and max 2G.

Update: I kept seeing out of heap space errors in my log and was getting soft crashes where the server just quits responding. I then set the max mem to 24G just to see if it could load in the array it was looking for and now the crashlog seems to point to a read of a file by ftbutils...

A player on my server was sneak placing dirt under himself and the server crashed. When it came back up, the block wasn't under him and he fell to his death. I'm only mentioning this because we were having block lag at the time and the server log shows we were dropping lots of ticks. Version...

@thephoenixlodge You've got to love that your pack is still so actively played. My friends and I have played through before but I set up a new server and we started again. We plan on this being our long-term build pack that we can keep coming back to after flashing out in new packs. Are you...

I find BoP's poison ivy to be an irritant I don't want to live with. I can't find any place in the RTG or BoP configs to disable it so I'm just going to disable BoP. Am I going to miss out on anything by doing that?

@Caigan I'm running a small server where 5 friends play your pack. We're really liking it, esp having fun getting some exposure to Matter Overdrive. We don't mind tougher games and generally always resist making anything easier, but we all got tired of getting one or two-hit killed by...

You're missing the scala library. Redownload the pack. You can try backing off to an earlier version and then upgrading to the latest if you don't know where to delete the folder for this pack.

Agreed - it seems pretty random and sometimes the grave is never found.

psi does have a barrier to entry, though. It requires people to invest in learning the logic. I'm only level 4 so it's not complete OP for me yet. The explosions don't seem to damage mobs for me yet. I did blast a hole in my house, though.

Aura Cascade bug: if you walk into an aura node at eye level, you suffocate. They collide at foot level normally.

Is it a 1.8.9 feature or a pack config that keeps you from taking fire damage? I just have iron armor on and I'm not taking any damage even though I'm visibly on fire after exiting lava. I did take damage while in the lava.

Psi looks really interesting. Apparently when @Vazkii decides that a UI is in order, it's a really good one. I'm a level 2 spellslinger so beware my mad skillz.

Sure, but you can't expect the guide to play the game for you. HQM is great and I'm thankful when modpack devs take the time to introduce me to things but I think it's silly to say the modpack guide is bad because there are things left to figure out on your own. There's youtube, other people...
