    Also possibly look at BC Gates for this as they can be installed in an extraction pipe attached to the machine/tank and be set to turn redstone on or off based upon empty/25%/50%/75%/full etc.

    I'm starting to get rather frustrated with the order upgrade. I had a field crosspolinate vertically 11 blocks with multiple floors in between them.

    I just found the rarest and most amazing ore vein I've ever seen: Yes, you saw correctly, this is the amazingly rare Crystal Growth Accelerator vein. It comes complete with droppers, redstone comparators, fences, and acacia leaves. I still haven't found any tin though :)

    Oh right, like this: Maybe i should check my screenshots folder before I ask questions :) This was from when I played IT2 2.x

    Speaking of redstone signals, what was that red power (I guess now it'd be blue power) circuit you used to determine when your RC tank was low on steam and full of steam and power a large GT boiler based on it? :)

    I use tallow golems for harvest and gather on regular crops in a 9x9 plot. You'll want an ordo upgrade on all harvest golems except for on wheat because they have a hard time replanting wheat. For wheat you need a separate harvest golem and a use golem to replant in my experience. For use...

    I currently use exclusively TC golem farms for everything I do. They harvest fir and rubber trees for my charcoal/creosote and rubber production. And then from 9x9 plots of land they harvest candleberries (ordo/herba), netherwart (praecantatio essentia), sugarcane (aer, aqua, cognitio...

    I ran into something a bit odd today. I just finished my cursed earth spawner. It works great. I grew some Silverywood trees with pure nodes in them on the dirt before I put down the cursed earth, and chopped down the tree except for the node. This causes varyous types of Pechs to spawn in...

    Yeah, I'm waiting to process it until I can maximize the byproduct output with HV machines. You can still end up using a fair bit of iridium to craft quantum armor and the gravisuit. Tin always seems to be more limiting of a factor though :)

    I finally found a Platinum Vein along with associated Iridium Ore. Yay! I soon realized after destroying 2 ore blocks of Iridium that I probably needed a level 4 pick. I ran back to my base and used some Iridium ore chest loot to craft an Iridium pick. I went to toss it in my anvil to apply...

    Alumentum doesn't work in LP Coal Boiler, HP Coal Boiler, Bronze Blast Furnace. It also doesn't work in Steve's Workshop Production table (but did in IT2 2.x). Alumentum does work properly in the Large Bronze Boiler and those tiers above it. Alumentum also works properly in the RC solid fuel...

    One of the biggest lessons I got from the GregTech Survival Guide when I first read it is that if with GregTech, if you don't plan ahead and think everything you do through you will be punished. Maybe harshly (exploding machines) or maybe just inconvenienced (sloshing steam over long distance...

    And here I was thinking of powering my HV era machines off of energized nodes :p I may still to some extent, but this seems worth considering too. I'm powering one string of LV machines off a node. All my other LV machines and my EBF run off a RC turbine. My first few MV machines are running...

    Oh, distillation tower being HV/EV just means I can't test it as I'm not there yet, not a balancing factor :) And what I'm saying, based on NEI, is that you may not even be able to create IC2 biomass on 3.1.9. Maybe it's just missing from NEI because it uses the IC2 Canning Machine and the...

    It sort of requires the Distillation Tower to get these numbers though right? The Distillation Tower is at least HV era gear. Might even be EV. Also I looked at the recipes for biomass in NEI on the server. I'm not seeing any way to generate IC2 biomass, although it does show up in NEI. The...

    You can actually find large oil reservoirs in IT2. I usually see them in the oceans. The large reservoirs are ones with spouts that cover more than one block. Biomass can be viable although you will likely want to learn Forestry tree breeding to get better specifications for your trees in...

    I just had my XACT crafter go empty and seemingly void all my items. I'm on the official server and we updated to 3.1.9 last night. After installing 3.1.9 the XACT crafter was fine, all my items were there and I used it to make 2 machines. It worked through several restarts just fine. And...

    Make steel and lots of it. Then you'll want a basic steam turbine, plate bender, wire mill, and lathe for your first LV machines. Then keep going :)

    A JABBA barrel should translate them to the correct dictionary item for you.
