Glowing towers are incredibly rare and fairly easy to miss. The name gives you the impression that they would be of decent size, but they are actually small. What's more is that they don't even glow or animate until you get close to them. It took me a very long time to find my first one and I...

I typically use a breeder reactor just to make tritium. Sodium being a much more efficient coolant than water allows me to integrate many more irradiation chambers into a breeder than a standard fission one.

I can understand inefficiency, but you might as well be voiding power because it eats the same amount of fuel for 1/2 to 1/4 the power output. You would not be open to changing this?

Is running the Microturbine and Gas Turbine on a lower speed supposed to result in the same fuel usage? I think this is a bug. These engines consume the same fuel as if they were running full blast at 50% and 25% speed. 6.25% is the only speed at which the fuel consumption jumps down.

Yes.

The exchanger isn't getting any sodium from the tower.

Unrelated question: how are you supposed to export hot molten sodium out of a solar tower? I've placed the 2 sodium cyclers on top of the tower, placed the sodium tower heat exchanger on the bottom and given it the required power and have pumped the temperature of the tower all the way up to...

Isn't the change were you raised the RF:W ratio the most effective change towards meeting your design intentions? I remember when I got crazy into RoC during v3 I used a big reactor to provide the RF for a decent chunk of my magnetostatics. Ever since then though the magnetostatics require far...

Yes! It's too much of a pain to work with for the role-playing aspect, so I void it every time. Rather than breaking voiding waste, I would very much like to see some sort of utility given for handling it. It would be cool to process waste into new fuel. Realistically this notion is not too...

A good idea, but the loss of power using the worm gears will put you under the 4kW requirement of the grinder. You'll need to use a gearbox instead. The temperature for spring steel is 1150C. I do not know what the absolute minimum amount of power is that you would need, but 4 steam engines (1...

I haven't tested this out yet, but this line in the changelogs has gotten me curious: "ChromatiCraft: Fixed Heat Lamps on RC engines" If this means that heat lamps provide heat to engines (and not something like fixing a bug so that now heat lamps cannot be used), it has some interesting...

In my entire time playing with RoC, I've never used a hydro engine. It's too much of a hassle for me: you gotta feed it lube, you gotta build this ugly-as-sin waterfall to get the most power out of it, and it requires diamonds (a material I have the most trouble collecting) and spring steel. I...

Something that irks me a lot is when a mod adds nearly useless ore to infect your world. By useless I mean that it is only used to craft tools and armor. That is just boring regardless but there are mods out there which offer better options for tools and do not have their own ores. All adding in...

Maybe this is just confirmation bias, but I always felt like the vanilla game generated the best types of caves. I love a giant cave system that can take hours to traverse and explore with a decent number of ores and miscellaneous goodies. For some reason in my modded worlds, those types of epic...

I know that quite a few of the mods that I have enjoyed in 1.7.10 have made the jump to 1.10. The thing is with me is that the point when Reika updates his mods to 1.10 (or if... I really hope he will) is the point I jump into it. I am willing to make do without a ton of mods and am excited to...

That's because I do not have much to say. Just keep carrying on. This thread makes me even more impatient waiting for more mods to update/come out for 1.10. Looks like a fun version of MC.

1/10 for no bacon. But honestly I do like (in general) watching people build a base and take screenshots of it. Desgin, construction, furnishing, it is all good stuff. As long as you don't carve out a 3x3 hole in and put a furnace in there and call it quits, it will be interesting. I do not...

Personally, I wanted to make a number of ChromatiCraft-themed structures that would essentially serve as sources of loot fragments. With all of the cool stuff in the mod, you would definitely see some great looking structures. There are also story-telling possibilities there: all those...

Do you have an import bus connected to the redstone furnace?

I've been playing a ton of Terraria lately (Like with all the spare time I have). That is a game I had already put over 650 hours into. I had numerous characters and worlds and 'beat' the game many times. I did almost everything there was to do, had a very big collection of items, and had a...
