Thank you! And that was it. I was freaking out because when I was testing I would make one recipe instance, see I got a newly made tool, take it out then make another recipe instance causing another tool to be made. As soon as I made more than one request in a row with out taking the tool out...

Does any one work with logistic pipes for their auto crafting system? I am running into an issue when trying to craft with the gregtech tools. I was trying to mimic the setup that Jason is using in his S3 e16.5. For making a wrench I have a fuzzy crafting table. I imported the recipe from...

Cobalt works. I'm not a big thaumcraft guy and was trying to do mostly tech. I only dabbled in TC to do a tree farm.

Thanks! I can do math on that and now figure out what my energy needs are and how much steam I need delivered to each machine.

Nether lava operations are straight forward to setup. Rail tank car, loader/unloaders, some tracks, some detectors, a nether portal, a lava pump of some kind and world anchor. I've done it in a lot of packs so I guess I just consider it a solved problem. I'm in the process of setting one up...

This and the 96 ovens just seems a little insane to me. Isn't there a better way to generate more concentrated energy? I would need 24 HP Lava boilers. That's 120 mb per second (1 bucket every 8 seconds) of lava to generate the same amount of energy. And that is while heating up. At max...

Lava?! I didn't even think to look for those. I figured since lava is considered a "cheat" in most other packs it would be disabled as a power source by default. Hmm no tesseracts or teleport pipes or ender chests. Rail tanks? It's been awhile since I have had to make one of those. Sounds fun.

Thanks! I'll have to go looking for wells. All I have found so far are lakes. They look like the regular ponds that spawn but with oil in them. I know the BC wells can be huge but I recall burning through the oil ponds in regular MC pretty quickly.

So I managed to get my first automated processing line setup last night. It's not perfect its slow and the LP have to be programmed for the different ores I want but it processes to the second byproduct for most of the ores. However I ran into a power problem. My large steam boiler eats too...

So I'm really enjoying the pack. Its taking me back to my days of originally playing modded mine craft when all you really had available was IC, BC and RP. I'm finding myself having to build out lots of interesting contraptions to automate things. Which is just what I like. I had a couple of...

Yeah I try and repurpose them when I can. Unfortunately I couldn't save the villagers.

Sorry it took a bit to post. Its been a busy week. There's an imagur album below. http://imgur.com/a/mwK0o The first shot is of the map and my markers. On the lower right are the platinum and olivine ores that allowed me to figure out where the center of the 3x3 ore spawning chunks were. I...

I appreciate the advice. I started out branch mining like I always do but figured there had to be a better way. Based on some things I had read the suggestion was to mine a shaft in the center of the 3x3 ore spawn grid. This was getting to be a PITA. I had been dropping the well in the...

Question about ore spawns. Can there be chunks where no ore spawns in the overworld? I've been dropping a BC mining well in the middle of chunks to help me locate the ores in them. I have been coming up with a large number of them that are empty. I am guessing this is because the RNG tells...
