I've got a jungle next to a desert. I set down 2 hives with modest bees (because I had strains that were diurnal) right on the edge of the jungle, and one strain of tropical bees (I think that's right...poisonous b*******...and not enough coffee yet) just inside the jungle border. There are 5...

I always have tried to find the specific vanilla biome in the past, but certain comments I've seen in LP's makes me think that might not be necessary anymore. Something about added biomes being given a tag so that they count as various biome groups. I haven't tested it though...as I implied in...

Wasn't going to jump into this fight, but I did want to comment...easier said than done. I've been attempting to breed a willow for about a week. 2 bee houses and an apiary with bees that are warm/damp friendly and I've had a Total of 1 pollinated leaf. Tree breeding isn't difficult, but...

No, the opposite. If I start cheating things in, I inevitably delete the world. I leave myself the option (cheats enabled), because of early experiences dying in lava and the frustration it caused, but in truth I haven't used it to replace anything since some of my earlier worlds.

From the other thread... Trust the man! :)

Lol..yeah. I have lost count of how many times I've crafted a Crusher, expecting it to be a macerator. When what I'm really looking for is the enrichment chamber. :)

I tested that, and it was not the case. A single source chest and three destination chests had a pretty tremendous difference after emptying. The only way I could think of (well...I guess you could do it with LP as well) to handle the OP's request is to put something in supply mode.

I tested the translocator idea last night. Again...not sure of your setup or if it's applicable, but the diamond nugget modifier (it was mentioned in DW's mod spotlight, but I didn't see it on the translocators website) allows you to put them into supplier mode. Without knowing more...

I haven't messed with the cyclic assemblers much, and, of course, am not sure of how your project is working or how fast they operate, but maybe you could use translocators in the mode that keeps a certain number of items in the receiving side? Say...10, or whatever. That way those resources...

Even better to know. I like that it's all in the manual. I don't like that I have to have read the manual to play the game. :) Play the game BETTER?, sure...but just to play? :)

Yeah, I found that out, thanks to a youtube video or a forum post, or something. The problem I had, I think, was in getting Granium (iirc). It takes Victus and terra. I could not scan it, despite having a bunch of aqua and terra (being needed for victus). I had to combine those to get...

This part confused me. Sometimes I was able to scan an item that I had the pieces for and it would unlock something new. But at least one time I had to go to the table and unlock something in order to scan. It seemed oddly inconsistent. I think it was granum, or whatever...I couldn't scan...

Yeah, but 'properly sized' for an MFR farm is probably 3x3 with a single composter/sewer. There's not much point in putting down more than one sapling at a time.

I plan to sit down and watch that spotlight soon, but after watching DW's forgecraft series, I was curious. If you're really bad at research and use up your research points moving nodes around, how do you get them back? Do you get additional points for rescanning items?

Yes. When melted in the smeltery, a single ore block makes 2 ingots.

In my last two worlds, I used a pulverizer and a clockwork engine.

I must not be expressing myself well. Centralized power generation is possible, or should be, with a setup like I've described. It would be more complex to subdivide the engine outputs, but I believe it could be done. Also, using a red stone energy cell as an intermediate power buffer between...

Oh...I agree with you. I am not a fan of power perdition. I was merely offering some of the technical details of a way to work around the idea of a constant trickle draw. I also think it would be possible to set the system up in such a way that it would only power specific machines that...

No machine would run constantly (unless it actually had something to do), because they'd only be supplied power when the Has Work condition is true. Not Power Requested. Now, if you had a machine constantly doing something (dunno..a pulverizer with a quarry input, or making sand), then you...
