    Opinions on Microsoft buying Mojang

    My 2 cents on this is the following : Modded MC is a fringe community within a Platform (PC) where most sales already happened. So if MS can't monetise the modded market somehow, they'll probably ignore it. In the worst case, they'll shut it down entirely.

    Some modpacks, like yogscast complete, overrride this with minetweaker and add pulverizer recipes for those to get more return.

    Big reactors currently fills the niche to provide nearly unlimited power with little to no effort late game in mainstream packs, of course its going to be popular as hell, since all the people with no idea how to anything can still copy a setup from Youtube with BR and make it work properly.

    I guess the problem when you use something like minetweaker to radicly change progression or recipes in mods its basicly like saying "I as a pack creator deem your ability to balance as a mod creator insufficient, and thus will continue to mess with your mod in other ways". Ofcourse, and that...

    Ofcourse. I just think that alot of people feel a strong sense of entitlement that mod makers need to carry to their play styles. I can't stand that. Im always one to support more modularity to be added, and I like messing with configs to tip balance for my server. But I would never demand off a...

    Thats exactly what I meant though, the balance of a particular mod is always subjective and always sensitive to context and there cannot or will not be hard limits to how far something can go. Lets not forget modders provide a free service by their own choice, and your choice as a modpack...

    I, as a server admin and someone that messes with configs alot, think that there is no such thing as Op under any context. No one is holding anyone at gunpoint to include a certain mod. If you feel one of the mods is op in your opinion, then either don't use it, or don't put it in your pack, or...

    Is Rotarycraft stupidly difficult or am I the stupid one?

    Thats where balance comes in. Alot of people want to play a balanced modpack experience. That doesn't mean they wont abuse the shit out of loopholes that are created by x-mod interaction. Thats why modpack creators usually use tools such as minetweaker and modtweaker to fix these things. I would...

    Is Rotarycraft stupidly difficult or am I the stupid one?

    See this guy highlights the problems with modded mc atm. Because mods have gotten significantly easier to use, an unprecendented number of (mostly) children without any basic understanding of anything sit here claiming they know something. And because their negativity sticks out, that has a...

    Is Rotarycraft stupidly difficult or am I the stupid one?

    If I had any confidence in you understanding these things, I would now post about a dozen different opis logs, a couple visualvm profiles and other server tracking metrics proving you wrong. But since you seem to be unable to get these things, ill just have to be content with saying that you are...

    Is Rotarycraft stupidly difficult or am I the stupid one?

    There is so much wrong with this Im going to have to adress it one by one. 1.) RC is fundamentally based, in principle, on a 2 variable rotational power system. All speeds, all machine behaviour, just about everything is calculated that way. RF, beeing a 1 variable power system, is utterly...

    Yes that is some high quality gourmet stupid right there. "That was revolting, I hated it! Another? Yes, please."

    [Custom modpack] Lag only when I break Blocks

    for future reference. Its very unlikely that anyone can help you without : 1) full server log or crash log 2) server setup details (cauldron evtl) 3) full modpack modlist or link 4) significant tech specs of your server

    Im pretty sure by spending some of the power on laser drills you can automate the mining aspect of fluorite ore.
