Because I might want to build something using them? Is there something wrong with having lots of resources? If I decide I want to build a structure out of amethyst blocks, it's nice to be able to walk over to my storage and pull what I need out, instead of having to spend hours mining for them.

I once had a setup with 15 fully powered mining lasers. I had all the cheese ore a man could want (for me, this would be none. :P ) Other than that, the 5x Mek ore processing is pretty power hungry if you set up 8 lines at once (one for every ore type) and the digital miner fully upgraded can...

I was actually planning to bury the generators and have SFM craft the TNT for them and keep them filled. I kind of want to make the entire floor of my base out of inventory cables, but I don't think I have enough redstone for that (it's the only resource I'm short on, except maybe emeralds, and...

Actually, I've got 5 or 6 reactant dynamos running 2 grinders and 8 pulverizers, as well as 2 furnace generators powering my farms. I was just looking for something else I could use without having to transport mob essence all over the place. I've got enough ender pearls I could probably...

I had to get ~300k RF/t each out of 2 max-sized Big Reactors turbines at one point (the pack I was playing had 12X power and 50X fuel use for Big Reactors). About half that power was running 15 mining lasers, which was how I intended to get all my ores (sadly, they don't produce Metallurgy...

So...is it weird that I don't have much in the way of auto-sifting set up but I've got sections 2 & 4 of the quest book done, and am pretty close to finishing 1 &3 (I think all I've got in 1 is the data tablet)? I had 1 sieve with the SFM setup until today, but I was just throwing whatever dust...

So, I set up an MFR planter/harvester combo to do some food farming, and it's got some issues. Pam's Harvestcraft plants that get broken by the harvester don't seem to be dropping seeds (they did in AS, btw.) I've tested this with soybeans, peanuts, rice, onions and Pam's mushrooms. I managed...

There was nothing to kill me after I synced...the lightning enderman are apparently kamikazes. He TP'ed right behind me and blew up. I guess I could lower the ceilings in the ship, but anything lower than three blocks high is so claustrophobic...I knew I should have just slept. I guess it...

So...Lightning Enderman are a thing. An evil, terrible thing. Here I am, hanging out in the ship, all the entrances blocked off, and there's the sound of an enderman teleporting like mad. It was night, but I'm guessing it must have been "raining". All of a sudden, there's another teleport...

Updates to Reika's mods, v25z

You might want to check if you have dimensional anchors, as well. They're nice because they're really cheap (iron block + 4 gold ingots), though I imagine that's not a good thing on a server (though you can limit how much a single person can load, I believe)...

Capture one in a safari net and autospawn it? If you have a spawner room that you can turn off grinders or whatever you're using to kill mobs, it shouldn't be too hard to get one to spawn. I had hundreds of zombie brains just from them naturally spawning. Granted, part of my dark room was in...

Honestly, I don't see much of a point to the 16M drives. I use block storage for all my bulk, and the 64k's fill up with different items far before they reach capacity. Granted, I haven't used an automatic mining method that pulls up anything other than what I specifically tell it to since...

I love the small boats mod. I'd have used one myself if I had it installed, but since I'm playing Monster at the moment, I don't. So I'm using a Mariculture speed boat instead, since, like you, I'm moving from somewhere on the water to another location on the water that's quite far away...

I discovered that my entire base, including all the contents of my barrels (I was going to dolly them and then stick them in the strongboxes, but I didn't need to), can fit in 16 reinforced strongboxes. Granted, it was always intended to be a temporary base (the place where I want to build my...

Storage buses, as I recall, have a read/write setting which allows only taking things out (read) or only putting things in (write). So you could set the bus to write only and hook up an export bus, I believe. Not sure if it will still work with a monitor, though, as I never use the things...

With Gendustry, I could potentially see myself getting into bees. Oddly enough, watching Hypno play with bees is what got me to play Minecraft in the first place, but when I tried playing with them myself, the amount of babysitting they take to get started combined with the RNG hating me led me...

Metallurgy is usually where I start (teching up a grinder and furnace), then TiCo for tools, then Mekanism. My general goal is to have a steel pick/hammer, a shovel/excavator/hatchet/lumber axe (preferably platinum), a refined glowstone sword and a digital miner with max energy upgrades and...

I usually end up with a massive wall of barrels. Heck, now that I think about it, my next world I should just make my starter house out of barrels (instead of what I usually do, which is skip the starter house and just sleep as soon as it starts getting dark.) My current world I had about 100...

I very nearly did that when I first started. Got the lumber axe, walked up to the tree, was about to start swinging, and realized I was standing on a giant wood platform. Given that I'd previously chopped down an entire 5 block high, 135 diameter circular wooden wall I'd built in Unleashed...
