Never apologize for that, good things take time and no doubt 1.1.2 will be worth the wait. :p Are dunes still a go for this update or are you concentrating on getting the cities right?

Neither; go UHS.

Some of the Biomes O' Plenty biomes will give you a chance for early healing, but that means getting lucky and finding the right ones (since there's loads of biomes in BoP). I know it's intended for hardcore game mode, but unless you're familiar with all the mods in the pack, I'd just go with...

Golden apples or healing potions.

I never had any problems making new maps for new regions. Might wanna wait until you craft and activate them until you're outside the boundary of your old map?

Because elongated is garbage and worse than long lifespan? The order is: Shortest Shorter Short Shortened Normal Elongated Long Longer Longest

Not directly - that age is unstable and the only way to get rid of the debuffs is to make a stable one, instead.

What else would you expect it to do? It's gaseous water, not liquid UUM. The industrial steam engines are awesome.

Something to do with nodes, no doubt... Have you keeped an eye on the bee area's aura levels and such?

Or just use the mining laser. ;)

Yeah. Instead of inoculating every species you want to use with all the beneficial traits, just keep a single dedicated species of super bees (with all the best traits you can get) and breed lots of drones and clone princesses. Then when you get some great new species, isolate the species into a...

Hey, noticed that biomes don't affect tree leaves/grass color (they all default to regular bright green) - is it something I can control via Optifine settings, or would it require editing the texture pack files?

I've never used anything but excellent serums, but I've heard that one of the potential side effects of using lower quality serums is turning your bees into something similar to swarmer bees. That is, they get that [-] tag to signify they can just die without producing new princess offpsring.

I don't like the turbines, I power my engine with solar panels (indirectly - the solar panels are hooked to a stack of battery boxes, from which the engine draws power to keep a redstone energy cell charged).

Does the new version have any kind of automatic age pruning, or limiting the amount of ages per player - anything like that? This is more of an SMP issue, really: a lot of players making ages willy-nilly will eventually drag the whole server down with it.
